I believe that most nations are more or less going this route. People in the developed world, more-so in Japan, want to excel in their career first then have children later. And porn provides a way to easily dismiss your sexual desires. I believe the two problems are interlinked in a vicious cycle. Here is an example of young, white collar man's life:
You work hard because that's what society expects you to do. You are at the beginning of your career so you try to catch up and get ahead by putting 1-2 extra hours a day. You come home exhausted and there are a lot of chores to do: cleaning your house, preparing food, taking care of yourself. If you add working out a few times a week, there goes most of your time, and willpower.
Going out and getting rejected a lot of times eats up on that low willpower and you give up after a few tries. Then you remember Tinder exists.You and a bunch of other people in the same situation try to get some action. Women on this platform are overly validated and flooded with attention, so they get an inflated ego and try to get the best men. So you get 1 match a week and that girl gets bored of your conversation after 4 texts.
Obviously Porn is going to be a very tempting escape, so you give in.You start PMO-ing daily. Your confidence drops, you isolate yourself further. You start working harder to compensate. You get less free time, your social life suffers, rinse and repeat.
Also, as a hypothesis of why this cycle starts in the first place: These young people that fit in the above description are probably the one who were quiet and shy in school. They were likely not very respected by their peers. They grow up with the desire to be respected. Everywhere in the media you can see people with money being respected and appreciated. It makes them think that money can buy respect and happiness. So they become workaholics.
Porn is just the pinnacle of a greater problem of hypersexualisation and breakdown of the family unit in favour of the rat race in a lot of developed countries. We see this in today's media, where even mainstream movies, shows and songs have vulgar sexual innuendos. Sex and intimacy has become casual, cheap, meaningless and an excellent tool in a capitalist economy. Society is built around the grind, and not the family unit like it used to be. Results are the increased dependence on porn, extremely low fertility rates and a lot of broken families.
No I didn't spend my valuable time to type this shit, I just copy and pasted it from nofap subreddit. Sometimes they have good points.
EDIT: Added emojis for people with low attention span who can't stand to read a block of text.
