Porn Is Just A Symptom—The REAL Relationship & Dating Crisis (And Where We Go From Here)

In this episode of The Liz Moody Podcast, Liz interviews Dr. Alok Kanojia, a Harvard-trained psychiatrist, about the role of porn and technology in the current mating and dating crisis. They discuss the increasing rates of erectile dysfunction in young men, the addictive nature of algorithmic pornography, and the impact of social media on relationships and mental health. Dr. Kanojia offers techniques for managing desire and building distress tolerance, emphasizing the importance of self-awareness, personal responsibility, and focusing on action rather than outcome. They also explore the concept of a "mass extinction event" in which some individuals are struggling to adapt to the modern social environment, and the need for men to step up and support women in navigating these challenges.
