Avoid Pornography to Reduce Superstimulus Effects

This practice means deliberately not using pornographic material, especially as a default sexual stimulus. The rationale is that porn can act as a supernormal cue that reinforces compulsive use, escalates novelty-seeking, and trains arousal away from real partners, which may blunt libido, motivation, and sexual function over time.
