#42 - Watching Porn with Your Spouse | Mythbusters

We're living in a world where there is a lot of misinformation. Most of this appears to be legitimate and widely held unless you peel back the layers and think about it. This misrepresentation of the truth led to the false beliefs or ideas people believe in. And in the area of sex, this quite a difficult situation. 

In this episode, Andrew and Sammy did some myth-busting in the world of sex and porn. They talked about how porn affects and distracts relationships accompanied by these assumptions. 

In today’s generation, it’s vital to correlate your future with the things you believe. Take into consideration a lot of things such as the quality of your relationship over time, think about how this misinformation may slowly erode the love, trust, and attraction within the relationship. We have to care about what we participate in because this becomes a part of the feedback loop that shapes our culture, society, and the world around us.
