"If I were given the opportunity to press a delete button that could destroy all the servers of the planet that contained pornographic material, I would crawl on the path of glass and thorns, even if it kills me, to press that button". (Interview of a porn addict by BBC) Imagine yourself lying on a comfortable couch in a dimly lit room. You are all alone, scrolling through a cell phone with your eyes glued to the internet.

Men are physically and emotionally more stronger than women, thus are bound to earn bread and butter for the family. "Men are the protectors and maintainers of women" [Quran 4:3].](https://scontent-dfw5-1.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.29350-15/301314093_396811792588809_2461092149596757862_n.jpg?_nc_cat=109&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=8ae9d6&_nc_ohc=qCWx7Bwq3d4AX-_XUvB&_nc_ht=scontent-dfw5-1.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&oh=00_AT8YnVJKXxI138N5MhjEntAuvnaazRyKLy1payHrJ4znmQ&oe=6345C129)
