I have a feeling (and it has been my experience) that over time the practice of detaching from an idea eventually frees you from it. When you see it objectively you come to realize how useless it might be or how little is may support the "stronger you"... then it is just dropped, no forcing is needed... it just falls away. Thanks!

Your videos are refreshing. Its a spiritual experience to hear you speak. Thank you for your insight.

There are a lot of good ideas in tantra about porn and masturbation, in that masturbation can be meditative and get you in tune with your body, but the problem of porn is that it takes you out of your body and makes sex more about visual stimulation than a body process. I can say from experience that when I put porn aside sex becomes much more intense and embodied for me.

I often get this mixed up, but here is how I remember it... to see myself OBJECTively it must be detached, without feeling or emotion, like I am an OBEJCT. To see myself SUBJECTively I have to see myself as being SUBJECTED to my feelings, perspective, emotions, etc.

please write a book, i can't believe how good you are examining these things

Most people would say a wank is a wank but I feel like we're not most people.

Awesome describing and very interesting thinking!

you need a playlist for all the music in your videos. I love it.

Its very rare that i ever watch video after of video on one channel. You are truly one of a kind bro, there's a genuineness and humility and authority that just exudes in your videos ...keep up the good work.

You are very intelligent Mr. Elliot!!

WOW!! I just learned a hell of a lot more than I ever did before. Thanks dude.

Great video, Elliot. I just ran across a video of yours a minute ago, and now I'm just fascinated. I'll be watching many, many of your videos in in the near future. Thanks for being you, and thanks for sharing!

be blessed Elliott!! Keep up the good work bro! Great vid as always! Lot of wisdom, knowledge, and sympathy!!!

this is good wisdom. great concepts!

Joseph Gordon-Levitt just did a movie about this very topic. "Don Jon". About a guy addicted to porn and started to have unrealistic expectations for the women in his life. I highly recommend it. Great view. Looking forward to watching others.

Excellent. Yesterday, I found your channel and I have since seen about a dozen or even more videos. Very intelligent stuff on a wide variety of subjects, including depression and suicidal thoughts, which I no doubt can handle a lot better now. Part of growing up. Thanks! Enlightening.

Just found you and subscribed. Got here from your workout channel. I'm a scientist, play a lot of sports and work out. You are a scientific person and your philosophies are based on that. Your analysis of love, lust, and masturbation I totally agree with. Have you read any buddhist philosophical texts? Your ideas are very much in line with that school of thought - of detachment, transiency, and that nothing is right or wrong. There is just truth and what is happening. Keep doing you Elliott!

watch don jon guys...its based on dis topic

After you discharge should you add it to your protein shake?

Very solid perspective, Elliot. Took me like 3 years to be able to articulate what you just did in 12 minutes.

thank you El! becoming a stronger and better version of my self, both physically and spiritually through watching your vids! keep up the great work! thank you very much

Damn, this has happened to me. Becoming attached to an unrealistic view of a women I could no longer be with.

that was awesome. it truly makes me want to stop accessing imagery of all sorts bc It is difficult to detach from.

This guy deserve more subscibers, He always seems to know what he is talking about wether that be in weight training or advice and he does a damn good job of explaining it.

Awesome, man! Your old explanations always helping us a lot! lol!

I'll just let you know from experience, real women are 10 times more satisfying than any amount of porn.

Elliot, You really are very wise on many topics and to be able to hear your views on these topics that we can relate to is absolutely amazing. I love how you word your ideas so we can fully understand it. Keep being Amazing man, Love from London.

Its amazing if we think deeper inside of us and listen to what Elliot says, we can actually relate and learn so much stuff. We should be thankful for you're doing and its helping in so many ways. I just wana say thank you Elliott.

Slavery to fleeting whims. When a person does one thing in the mind while doing another with the body, there is always going to be a consequence. Dissociation of the mind from the body will always have negative consequences(reactions).

It's amazing how productive and mind-opening talking about sex can be when one talks about it without glorification or inhibitions. Thank you Elliott!

Spoken very diligently, one of the most challenging issue of our time for male adults, thanks for your articulate brainstorming. It made a shit ton of sense to me. Respect!

Attachment is a powerful concept I think a lot of people don't understand or realize they're influenced by. Thank you for sharing your ideas on this, Elliot. I think this advice can result in not only the improvement of most people's sex lives, but above all, their awareness.

every video makes me learn something new.... really elliot, thank you for doing this!

What the hell was that! I started off searching weightlifting videos and ended up on this video. I am subcribed to elliots videos but didn't know he made this one. So after watching it, I was in awe. There is no other way this can be explained as detailed as this. This was an awseom video. Big props for having this video well prepared.

Man You are dropping words of wisdom here and there...Keep it up ellliot

I love this video. Thanks for shedding light on this subject. That's why I watch your videos:)

@elliott hulse I didn't know about you until I watched this video and now I know you're the real deal. Your wise, intelligent, and just all around well rounded guy... I like it. So many guys our age (teens, 20's, 30's) are looking for a source of wisdom, a mentor. You're that person for me, your wise beyond your years.

great speeches Elliot, although there are somethings I dont agree but, its always helpful to watch your videos...good job bro!

subbed to your channel. You're a wise man! Thnx for sharing your knowledge.

Mind blown! Awesome vid bro

you have my sub, to hear you speak is to walk with you down a clear path

Darn. You reallly are a very wise man, very powerful and articulately done speech here, it really changed my view on a view things in a way. KUDOS Elliot Hulse

I was confused at first about where this was all going, but then it made so much sense. Wise words. Thx Elliot.

So much truth in this Elliot. Keep it up man

wow dude,, u make so much sense... i see things differently now,, u have proved to me, that i need to take a new approach on my life,, i used to be an avid body builder,, but through injuries and just plain laziness, i gave up,,but you have truly regenerated a pulse inside me with your knowledge,, your right, i have been very unfair to myself!!,, instead of getting off my lazy ass, ive just fantasized about "what if I", instead of "what can I"...thank u so much for making youtube worth it 2day.

Watching your videos never disappoints me...thank you for that.

youve got another subscriber.. thanks for all your videos dude

Pretty cool stuff, Elliot. A balanced look at the subject.

man thanks this is exactly what i needed to hear right now.

Nice perspectives man!

What a well thought out refutation. Have you ever considered publishing this study in a journal?

I love you man! keep up the good work!

WOW...I'm so inspired to change my life today! So glad I found this channel.

absolutely amazing video man! i don't think there's anyone out there that can talk about something like this in such a serious manner. i was nodding my head the whole way through! mega respect sir! the only time i laughed is when you said 'hard on on' haha! all the best elliot!

enjoyed this video brother.

I have watched almost all of your videos. You sir, have my respect. Great information

Great vid. Powerful info!

Makes sense and has given me something to think about. thanks for sharing the video man.

Cool videos on a plethora of subjects. You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. Greetings from Norway ^^

You make some very good points that I never thought of.

Elliot is the Vsauce of Fitness and Personal issues. Awesome info man.

So much realness here. Thanks for this Elliot.

Thank you for your post on this topic which is so central to the lives as men. This definitely seems like a topic where people are going to disagree a lot. I'm a little bit surprised you don't side with the Taoist theories that ejaculation is a waste of energy. However, I really shouldn't be surprised, because I am conflicted myself, and I identified with your viewpoint as well as the aforementioned one. Elliott, I hope you continue to ponder this topic, or at least keep it on the back burner.

I went from furious pete to empowering my spirit. Thanks brother you're a true blessing you're eyes don't lie.

Very well said. Nice job Elliot.

Wow Great video! Your channel and your workouttips are just great and useful. keep up the great work! :D

truly amazing advices bro, keep the videos coming! :) like

Great Video!

wow elliot you are fantastic, keep em comin, love love loovvee your videos

Everyone can learn something from this guy. Legend.

this was really interesting! I'm in a long-term abstinent relationship, and I've come to understand this similarly. I'm waiting for marriage to become sexual and it's a constant struggle between temptation and restraint. I've been thinking about the issue of lust for a while, and I agree that there is an inevitable instinct to look at someone else sometimes. But keeping that image, as you call it, for longer than even a few seconds, I see as a danger to myself and the relationship

Incredibly smart and eye opening. thanks man!

awsome information, thanks Elliott

Mate, you are awesome. Great great video

props man, this was a great thought.

These are very important topics you're addressing here. I appreciate your description of lust as a natural body function, but love how you distinguish the ability to disconnect from that lust. It is nearly impossible not to become aroused in certain situations, but it is totally in your hands how you handle it. For a healthy, flourishing relationship, it is truly important to attach those feelings of lust and ultimately love to the other half of your relationship. Pornography may seem shallow, but the effects it has on one's psyche, connecting that feeling of lust and love to scripted, fake sex can have lasting effects on a person and subsequent relationships.

Thanks man this helped a lot

this man speaks so much truth it amazes me. Mr Hulse, sir, you are a genius and I thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with us.

Finally I found soemone incredibly smart on youtube, and what's even more surprising, the comments seem to make sense as well! Subbed! (y)

Amazing video!! Great philosophy!

I think that I find always end up finding people online who are responsive like a worker is to a paycheck, often times rebellious. Let's just appreciate Elliot's wisdom, especially as God's word and science and all that goodness.

Genius! Keep it up Elliot.
