I know this topic has been written about many times and there are as many opinions about it as Carter’s got pills so here goes.
Before my Aneros and back door discoveries, porn was my good reliable friend to achieve my pleasurable moments. I reflect on the fact that, probably due to age, my sex drive was forever low. I could always rely on porn to give me back a little of the spark I needed to achieve positive and, what was at the time, my ultimate (but elusive) pleasure.
Along comes Aneros and all the pro & con advises that comes with the Wiki and Forum. The correct answer to this is ‘to each his own’. Now, having said all that, I will outline my own experience.
In my early Aneros sessions, I continued to rely on my crutch and the toy helped expand my pleasures. With limited progress, I eventually realized (referring to forum’s expert opinions for advice) that porn was in fact preventing me from appreciating all the feelings and sensations happening in my lower innards. Pleasure was plentiful but it was mostly externally penile. Eventually, while practicing pornless (is this a word?) sessions, I feel I progressed by encountering feelings I never had before and for me, the proof was evident that my old friend should remain in the past and to be re-invited only periodically for a good masturbate session.
Last night, I entered into a session and I felt I was not quite as aroused as I would have liked so I decided to just have a peek at some of my favorite clips. Once started, it’s like an addiction, you can’t stop. Again, the feelings were great but not where they needed to be. I hardly felt my Helix Syn working and missed all its direct effects. All in all, a good session but one that I could have had by just masturbating.
Again, for me, it was a lesson learned one again; my goal to achieve Super-O is lessen if I am not concentrating on what my toy is doing to me. I miss out on my body’s gifts to me, gifts I had never experienced before the beginning of this whole Aneros experience. I thought I had learned this lesson a few times before but to me, porn is sometimes GREAT!
Tonight, my Progasm Ice is going in and my laptop stays upstairs.
