If you see sexual videos a part of your brain will be shut down

Looking at sexual images seems to be highly visual, but in fact when you are watching an erotic movie it turned out that the part that processes the visual stimulus of the brain has calmed down .

In many cases, a visual work such as watching a movie sends more blood than usual to the area where image processing of the brain is performed, but if the movie being viewed is sexually explicitUniversity of Groningen medical center'S neurologist Gert Holstege discovered. When looking at a sexually explicit movie, the area where the image processing of the brain does block blood and energy, instead they seem to be sent out to the part which causes sexual arousal.

"The brain may not need to visually grasp the details of the sexual scene," says Gert Holstege. "For example, if you have to write what is shown on the computer screen, you have to be particularly careful not to make a mistake, but when you are watching sexually explicit movies, There is no such need because it knows what is happening, such as whether the door is green or yellow, that kind of thing is not an important issue.

Also during the orgasm, activities in the brain area were related to anxiety. "This phenomenon will explain" Why is a woman with less sexual desire more likely to have a higher level of anxiety? "Holstege says. In other words, if a woman overlooks the surroundings and perceives the danger from detailed information, it may not be able to concentrate on sexual stimulation. "If you are in danger, for whatever reason you have no sexual feelings, because you are not for seed but for yourself to survive "Said Gert Holstege.

In research on brain scan so far,Broadman's brain mapOf No. 17, orPrimary visual cortexA hint of the fact that the earliest active visual cortex called calmness by sexually explicit images was discovered. But the data was not perfect and it was not a step into the question of the female brain. As a result, Mr. Holstege investigated the primary visual cortex of 12 premenopausal heterosexual women as one of a broad series of brain scan studies. At this time all women had stretched the menstrual cycle related to sexual desire changes with hormones for pregnancy control.

Subjects werePET (positron emission tomography)Three videos were shown while the brain image was taken by brain scan: This scan uses radiation to detect which part of the brain the blood is flowing every minute. The part where more blood flow is seen is more active.


One of the videos was a natural documentary on the sea creatures in the Caribbean, the other two were pornographic movies that were easy for women to accept. One depicts only the stimulus of the foreplay and the hand, the other one depicts oral sex and sexual intercourse. Early studies have shown that videos of severe sexual intercourse create strong physical arousal to women than those that imaged foreplay, but as a result of the scan, only intense erotic video is in the primary visual cortex It has become clear that an extremely small amount of blood is being sent. Therefore, although the primary visual cortex is active, it was sluggish than usual. Normally, such effects are only seen when doing non-visual processing such as recalling words.

These results show that when viewing an erotic movie the brain is focusing on sexual stimulation rather than visual information. "We must understand that the brain wishes to conserve energy as much as possible, so if a certain part of the brain does not require a high degree of concentration, that part will immediately calm down," Mr. Gert Holstege. Also, it is thought that this discovery affects sexual dysfunction, as it is drawn in the brains of women that "safety is the most important, anxiety obscures sexual desire". "If you want sex as a man, you must create a safe situation for women, which is the most important thing you want."
