For the fourth time that day, you’re at it — computer screen and monitor transformed into a veritable pornoplex: seven different windows featuring seven increasingly sordid scenes. While your daily allowance of adult entertainment continues to pique your interest, everything else in life seems so… vanilla.

Take sex with actual people, for example. All those humdrum relationships and snoozy Grindr dates. You suppose the men were nominally attractive — in a funky, not-on-your-computer-screen sort of way — but none of them ever really get you going, and one thing you can’t fake is an erection. Midway through sex, all you ever want to do is run home and check in on your Pornhub “Favorites.”

If this scenario sounds at all familiar, you’re not alone. A leading psychosexual therapist claims adult entertainment’s abundance and availability is slowly poisoning men’s sex drives, causing a host of heath problems, both physical and psychological.

According to Angela Gregory, more and more men in their late teens and twenties are dealing with erectile dysfunction.

Pink News reports that Gregory is absolutely certain the problem stems from pornography.

Talking to BBC Newsbeat, she says, “What I’ve seen over the last 16 years, particularly the last five years, is an increase in the amount of younger men being referred.”

Our experience is that historically men that were referred to our clinic with problems with erectile dysfunction were older men whose issues were related to diabetes, MS, cardio vascular disease.”

“These younger men do not have organic disease, they’ve already been tested by their GP and everything is fine.”

“So one of the first assessment questions I’d always ask now is about pornography and masturbatory habit because that can be the cause of their issues about maintaining an erection with a partner.”

What do you think? Can an increased dependence on pornography wreak havoc on your sex drive and personal relationships? Weigh in in the comments below.

MTV’s ‘True Life’ Shares Stories from Orlando and More TV This Week

MTV’s ‘True Life’ Shares Stories from Orlando and More TV This Week

True Life: We Are Orlando and more TV this week

Check out our weekly guide to TV this week, and make sure you’re catching the big premieres, crucial episodes and the stuff you won’t admit you watch when no one’s looking.

MTV’s True Life follows the stories of four survivors of the Orlando Pulse nightclub shooting in a new episode tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern. The heartbreaking special True Life: We Are Orlando follows the story of four survivors — Tony Marrero, Patience Carter, Tiara Parker and Joshua McGill — as they heal their physical and emotional traumas. MTV is also sharing a lot of digital content with even more stories from the Orlando LGBTQ community.

Lena (Sherri Saum) is worried about Mariana (Cierra Ramirez)’s competitive streak on a new episode of The Fosters tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern on Freeform. Callie (Maia Mitchell) also has a run-in with the law.

Looking for something lighter to watch tonight? What Cupcake Wars lacks in depth it makes up for in calories. Tonight, a special celebrity-studded episode of Food Network’s competition features Drake Bell, Glee’s Heather Morris, Lori Greiner from Shark Tank, and openly-gay trainer Bob Harper. Catch it tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern, hosted by Mean Girls’ Aaron Samuels himself, Jonathan Bennett. Grool.

The second season of Hulu’s Difficult People has been crushing it. Each episode is better than the one before, and there’s been an increased focus on the love life of Billy Epstein (Billy Eichner). Everything from steam room blowjobs to animal-themed gay subcultures have been skewered in the show’s razor-sharp second season. Don’t miss a new episode Tuesday.

The question on everyone’s mind is: What will Tonga be wearing during the Olympic closing ceremonies Sunday at 8 p.m. Eastern on NBC?
