AddReply(30399,"tales of a pornographic internet junkie","sandra stein","ny","09/14/06","I felt like I was readinf about my husband. He too, started after he lost his job. I confronted him. The saddest part is that he doesn\'t think its so terrible and still does it from time to time. He just doesn\'t get it when I tell him that it affects my relationship with him on an intimate level. His son found out about it as well and is very upset. It burst his image of him as a role model and I think he is frightened by it.");

AddReply(30397,"Shame on Arutz-7","Yeshiva Rabbi","USA","09/14/06","There is no solution to this problem in Western society. We are hit with porn on the net, with immodest women when we leave our homes, and with provocative ads everywhere. The best way to deal with this problem is total silence. Because it is insurmountable, period. It will simply lead students and adults to despair. I say this as a prominent yeshiva Rabbi 100% immersed in Torah during all wake hours. I say right here: I have lapses into porn sites. Believe me, I have opened this subject with several colleagues, and I am not alone. This article gives people a false sense of success at hand.");
AddReply(30396,"a different approach","ben","usa","09/13/06","I feel the solution lies in our having a healthier attitude towards the human body and realizing that there is a difference between viewing pornography, which is pathologic to our moral fiber, and viewing innocent images of the human body, which is not pathologic, and may even be beneficial in conquering the yetzer hara and satisfying what I would call a natural curiosity (to be distinguished from the yetzer hara) that normal humans possess.

AddReply(30395,"Marriage destroyer","Anonymous","Oregon, U.S.A.","09/13/06","I had been married one week when I found porn in my husband\'s sock drawer. Thus began 20 years of lies, deceit, & cheating. This addiction is very expensive! I kept wondering where the money was going! He finally chose between our marriage & two children or porn. And he chose porn. The adreneline rush to the brain from seeing these images is the same as a heroin high. No wonder it\'s so addictive! The porn blocker is a great idea, but counseling & prayer are also needed. Porn is everywhere, not just on the computer. Thank you for sharing your story! There is hope!");

AddReply(30390,"Re #2 and to anonymous","Elli","City of Truth","09/12/06","Michael. You didn\'t write your second name. Why should someone with such an explosive secret, the treasurer of a shule no less, feel compelled to reveal his identity? Use your brain. \nBy the way, to anonymous, I know someone whose husband also slipped, and it was suggested to him to take up Torah learning. To my knowledge, it has helped him to curb the impulse. You are to be\ncongratuled for your courage. That must have taken enormous courage, even to come here anonmously. I wish you a shana tova, and do not make yourself sick with guilt. Hashem surely knows you are contrite. ");

AddReply(30388,"I try. I fail. I try again. I fail better.","Ranut","Beit Shemesh","09/12/06","I think that the problem is far greater in scope than anyone can imagine. The inclination to instantly see atractive women in compromising situations is difficult to ignore. I know from personal experience. If your reading this, you probably do as well. However, if you can fight the urge for 2 weeks, youre nearly home free. The first week is the hardest. Take it one day at a time. Reward yourself at the end of each day - even if it\'s only a pat on the back. If you slip up, give yourself a mental slap, and get back up on the horse. No one\'s perfect. Just don\'t give up. I Hope this helps.");

AddReply(30386,"A Poignant Story","","","09/11/06","To annonymous thank you for writing this article. There are so many men out there who need a wake up call.\nA couple of years ago my husband had a lapse of judgement. It was a little different though. He started searching the single personals and wrote a letter introducing himself as a single guy wanting to meet women.\nBut Hashem revealed his letter to me as it popped onto the screen one day when I went on the computer. It shocked me to the core. I made him go to the Rabbi for help. B\"H he got help and we are still together. It could have turned out much worse. Again B\"H, we are still here.");
