We get this question a lot. Especially from men—and especially from those on the path of sexual Tantra: “Can I still watch porn if I’m cultivating semen retention or learning to separate orgasm from ejaculation?”
In Episode 6 of Tantra Talks, we dive deep into the real, nuanced answer to that question. Because it’s not as simple as “yes” or “no.” And it’s definitely not about shame.
Here’s what we unpack:
- The difference between porn and erotica—and why that distinction matters
- How habitual porn use can dull your imagination (which is essential for Tantra)
- Why fantasy and visualization are powerful tools in solo practice
- What happens when your sexual nervous system is trained to climax fast
- When and how porn can actually be used skillfully (yes, really)
- Why Tantra is about refinement, not restriction
- We also share personal stories, cultural context, and practical tips for anyone navigating solo sexual cultivation—especially those working with semen retention, orgasmic awareness, or deepening their connection to pleasure.
