It takes a village to publish thousands of peer-reviewed articles each year and we're highlighting those that make it possible on our new Partnerships page. By partnering with organization in academia, publishing, technology and advertising, Cureus continues to provide a fast, efficient and hassle-free publishing experience for authors around the world.

Did you know that each article published in Cureus has a dedicated section for community discussion? Article comments are emailed directly to the corresponding author who is prompted to reply. We believe that every article we publish is worthy of a healthy discussion. Questions? Concerns? Cureus does not publish letters to the editor so this is your opportunity to engage with the journal audience, authors and editors. The Discussion section on the Cureus homepage displays four active discussions. Leave a comment and get the conversation started!

Porn Addiction: Legitimate or Imaginary Behavioral Disorder?
There is a scarcity of research about “porn addiction.” Is such behavior merely a variation of human sexuality or is it a pathological compulsive addiction with far-ranging effects on psychological well being?¹ For years mental health professionals and researchers have debated what constitutes hypersexual disorders and rightful inclusion in the DSM.^2,3

In light of the above, Cureus is calling for scientific articles that broadly relate to the field of pornography and its potential behavioral manifestations.
