It goes without saying that our brain has a hard time distinguishing images from reality. This is why we get hungry when we see picture of food, or why we get horny when we see a picture of a person we're attracted to.

I don't care whether or not it's real. When you look at porn, the brain makes it real. It's as if the person is right there in front of you, actually getting naked and being sexual with you.

Likewise when you're on Instagram, you are often browsing through endless photos of good-looking women with physically fit bodies, perfect proportions and cute faces.

Meanwhile, in real life most women you will see aren't anywhere near what you see on your screen. If you're in North America, most women you encounter will be overweight. That's not to mention that women have physical imperfections as well.

I think that's what causes orbiting as well, because when men see a genuinely attractive woman like they see in their phone screens, they want her because they see her as average.

It might even stop men from pursuing a relationship altogether. What's the point of settling for less than what's in your screen? I swear it's more sexually satisfying to look at porn and jump a pillow with a fleshlight in it than it is to have sex with someone you aren't attracted to. It almost feels like the real thing.

What do you guys think?
