13-7-2023 (KUALA LUMPUR) The National University of Malaysia recently released statistics on teenagers’ exposure to pornography and sexual activities, revealing that many boys start watching porn at a young age without developing a healthy understanding of sex. This has led to some boys becoming addicted to sexual activities and falling into the terrifying cycle of “endless ejaculation.”
According to a report by Malaysia’s China Press, in 2021, the National University of Malaysia conducted a survey on the sexual knowledge and behaviors of teenagers. The results showed that as many as 75% of teenagers have been exposed to pornographic images or videos, with the vast majority being boys who start watching porn as early as middle school.
Nur Azma, a lecturer in the university’s family medicine department, pointed out that teenagers who watch porn are more likely to become addicted to it and engage in risky sexual behaviors, including open sexual relationships. Nur Azma also noted that most teenagers are still in a state of sexual confusion and usually do not practice proper protection against sexually transmitted diseases, which puts them at risk of contracting HIV, syphilis, and other sexually transmitted diseases.
Nur Azma provided statistics from a 2017 survey, which revealed that 7.3% of Malaysian teenagers aged 13 to 17 had been exposed to pornographic content since the age of 14. Furthermore, 5% of them had already made sexual activities a part of their daily lives. Another case showed that a male student who had been exposed to porn frequently since his teenage years became addicted to sex by the time he was in university. He would watch at least 200 porn videos every day, engage in excessive masturbation, and participate in multiple sexual activities, leading him to fall into the terrifying cycle of “endless ejaculation” from which he could not escape.
The findings of this survey highlight the need for greater education and awareness about healthy sexual behaviors, especially among teenagers. Parents, educators, and healthcare professionals need to work together to provide comprehensive sex education and support to teenagers to prevent them from developing unhealthy sexual habits that could harm their physical and mental health in the long run.
