One of the cancers that tears down family relationships is the involvement of pornography on the part of one or both partners. The devastating effects of this explicit visual material disrupt the ability to enjoy marital sex.

According to the article published by Focus on the Family, pornography programs the mind of an individual to respond and to crave for a higher level of erotic stimulation. A man may have the difficulty to be stimulated by his partner after viewing a material filled with perfectly shaped women doing wild and perverse acts.

In a clinical research, this progression is called by Dr. Victor Cline as an escalation. Dr. Cline, a psychotherapist specializing in family and marital counseling and sexual addictions, explains that with a passage of time, "the addicted person required rougher, more explicit, more deviant and kinky kinds of sexual material to get their heights and sexual turn-ons."

Likewise, Dr. Cline also added that addiction and escalation were mainly due to the powerful sexual imagery of an individual implanted by the exposure of pornography. And by being married or in a relationship with a willing sexual partner may not solve the problem.

Porn is always available. It is never too busy and always inviting and does not criticize nor requires foreplay. It is not dependent on feeling close and never as a headache. It also allows sex on its terms and presents a higher level of excitement than marital sex.

When a person is engaged in this kind of sexual outlet, working out through the marital intimacy is pretty much unattractive. Sexuality becomes centered on the immediate needs and demands rather than relating intimately with a sexual partner.

Researcher Patrick Fagan, Ph.D. completed the study of pornography called the sexually explicit material as a quiet family killer. Per All Pro Dad, Fagan's study found that 56% of divorces had one partner with an interest in porn.

Fagan believes that over 90% of men have viewed porn on the internet and is the number one temptation facing in all adult men. While porn is slowly eroding rational sense, as well as outside sexual influences, work their way in, marriage slowly falls deeper and deeper.

Marital sex is the highest form of physical intimacy between husband and wife. It is build up with genuine passion between two people connecting in love. But with pornography, this intimacy will vanish.

Ridiculous expectations, loss of trust and intimacy, shame and emptiness and loss of satisfaction are just a few terrible effects of pornography in marriage. Men should not have to be addicted to pornography. The reason this porn site exists is to teach every man to become better as husbands and fathers and not the other way around.
