Porn induced short term memory loss....


A new study by German scientists has shown that viewing pornographic images greatly affects the short term memory... squirrel!

The scientists asked 28 heterosexual men to view a combination of pornographic and non pornographic images and then asked to keep the order of the images straight.  They were asked to identify if an image had been seen four slides before.... squirrel!  Significantly more men answered the question wrong when they were viewing pornographic images vs non pornographic images.  In fact, when shown non pornographic images they answered the question right 80% of the time, but when faced with the hot images of women their score dropped to 87%.

And why in the hell did they do this kind of study?  Turns out that Internet porn addicts miss appointments, neglect relationship and even fail to sleep at huge rates.  Apparently watching porn can affect a brain so much that it causes parts of the brain to actually shut down and redirect the blood flow to portions of the brain that are responsible for sexual arousal. ... squirrel!

Personally, I wonder if it's not just the blood flow going to other parts of the brain, but other parts of the body!  I've known some guys who act pretty damn stupid if their penis is up.
