The Independent reports:

Psychologist and professor emeritus at Stanford University Phillip Zimbardo (who led the team of researchers who conducted the Stanford Prison Experiment) has made the warnings, which form a major part of his latest book, Man (Dis)Connected.

Zimbardo says (in this TED talk) there is a "crisis" amongst young men, a high number of whom are experiencing a "new form of addiction" to excessive use of pornography and video games. Citing the research he and his team conducted for the book, he says: "It begins to change brain function. It begins to change the reward centre of the brain, and produces a kind of excitement and addiction."

An article from Psychology Today, however, argues that there are no demonstrable scientific links between porn consumption and the disputed phenomenon called 'Porn-Induced Erectile Dysfunction.'

Could this problem be manifesting itself as the rise of the Hikikomori?

    It was prior to 1930/1870 way longer than it's been post 1930/1870.

    Also, your argument is empty.

    Marry young girls.
    Kill feminists.

    Why would you want to marry a young girl? Why would you want to marry at all? Marriage only opens you up to getting robbed, young girls aren't sexually attractive, and experienced women fuck better and have less jealousy and other issues. Stay single, don't be a pedo, fuck older women until the women your age don't suck.

      Or fuck no one and realize that mashing genitals together is a bigger waste of time than even posting useless comments on the Internet. Leave the reproduction to the filthy normies; they are the slaves that will continue the human race.

      Disgusting. "Fuck old women". Degenerate.

      Young girls are cute and often nice.
      Read up on the old testament "definition" of marraige, that is what is being used here, not feminist marraige.
      (Hint: there's no word for wife, just woman, girl, etc, you can have many, you can have girl children as brides).

      Man + young girl is supported in the old religions

      Man + Man is not. Man + Old Women As Master is not.

      Man as master is.
