252. Porn, Faith, and the Hidden Crisis of Male Loneliness (Part II)
What if real connection feels harder than ever, and a screen seems safer than a person? In this continuation of their deep dive into men's mental health, Anna and Tim confront the uncomfortable truths about porn, isolation, and why so many men are feeling more alone than ever. This isn’t just about behavior; it’s about what’s missing underneath.
Join them as they unpack the silent epidemic of digital detachment, the changing role of men in faith and family, and what happens when emotional needs go unmet. They explore why vulnerability still feels like a risk for many men, and what it might take to build something different, something real.
This Episode Covers:
- How porn is becoming a substitute for connection.
- Why real intimacy feels risky for some men.
- The shift from traditional faith to transactional substitutes.
- Compulsive behavior and the illusion of control.
- How shame and silence deepen male loneliness.
- Cultural differences in expressing vulnerability.
- Rethinking masculinity as tough and tender.
- Practical steps toward connection, support, and coaching.
Until next time, here's to deeper connections and personal growth.
