How does porn work? Why do humans (especially men) get so excited by seeing someone else have sex? At first glance, the answer seems obvious: watching porn triggers an idea (we start thinking about sex), which then triggers a change in our behavior (we become sexually aroused). This is how most of us think about thinking: sensations cause thoughts which cause physical responses. Porn is a quintessential example of how such a thought process might work.
But this straightforward answer is entirely wrong. Porn does not cause us to think about sex. Rather, porn causes to think we are having sex. From the perspective of the brain, the act of arousal is not preceded by a separate idea, which we absorb via the television screen. The act itself is the idea. Thanks to our mirror neurons, which imitate the actions of others and help us simulate their feelings, when we are watching porn we are convinced that we are not just watching porn. We think we are inside the screen, doing the deed.

What opinion is to be had? It's something so self explanatory, we might as well debate on if getting shot in the face with a gun is bad for you.

PS, it's not, go try it.

I don't get this. Why is the OP's first explanation incorrect? The latter explanation doesn't seem incompatible with the former.

Also being a linguist and a porn watcher, I would like to concur that "Fap" is, indeed, a great addition to the English language.

I love psychology as much as the next guy, but I still think this is a pretty lousy explanation. At least for me it's a sort of sexual empathy, the act and the ecstasy of two people giving into their lust is really the true turn on for me I think. Seeing a woman give into pleasure is basically my reasoning.

Though personally I really get into the idea of it being this delicious act of devotion so alot of stuff turns me off or just leaves me thinking "this is fucking stupid" alot of the time, and I don't think many people on /hc/ would feel those same sentiments. I always have this impression that you guys are mind criminals.

OP has been reading too much Foucault-inspired drivel. The signifier of the act is not the act itself - and people understand this.

I know when I'm watching porn that I'm not there. I may want to be there, and perhaps I'll fantasize about being there - but I know I'm not. Furthermore, my body may get aroused and act as if its there - but this is irrelevant. My bodily functions may not be able to distinguish the act, but my mind certainly can. Nobody "thinks they are "inside the screen".
