Frequent Porn Use Not Always Problematic

Frequent pornography use doesn't always signal a pornography problem, according to a new Journal of Sexual Medicine study. 

Researchers analyzed the results of three separate studies involving over 15,000 pornography users. The research team considered various factors, including demographics, socioeconomics, personality traits, and psychological needs. 

The participants were also classified depending on the frequency of their porn use and how problematic it was. 

The researchers found that more participants fell into the "non-problematic frequent" category compared to the "problematic frequent" category.
