Porn! Just this word brings up a slew of thoughts to the mind—right from ones that demand some action to others that make you cringe. But if you ignore the moral narrative that deems porn dirty and view it for what it is, then you’ll realise that a little bit of pornography might just be good for your sexual health.

Now before you get scandalised, a research paper published in the journal sociology suggests that watching porn for leisure is not bad as it can help you destress.

That said, watching porn can take you on a roller-coaster ride—because if you don’t know when to stop it can wreak havoc on your relationships as well as mental health.
