Four decades of research have shown that pornography undermines the whole person's health of young people. It impacts every facet of their developmental wellness; social or emotional, cognitive or physical. When (not if) your child gets exposed to pornography it can shape how they think about sex and relationships, including respectful behavior and consent, and things like equality and their understanding of their own bodies Porn has inundated so many areas of our media and our culture that it behooves us to provide sex education that provides a porn-critical lens.  Listen now and learn how.

All parents hope to shield kids from exposure to pornography, online or otherwise. Families have adapted 'best practices' to keep their kids safe from the disturbing and offensive nature of pornographic media. But the methods to do this are out of date in our rapidly changing digital landscape. Gail Dines is the founder & president of Culture Reframed, providing tools to help parents raise strong, resilient kids free from the debilitating influence of online pornography.

Tim is joined by Marshall Ballentine-Jones (CEO of DigiHelp Publishing) and Emma Argall (Christian School teacher) to talk about pornography and it's impact on young people. Together they delve into challenges faced in raising children and youth in a highly sexualized world, particularly one with high pornography consumption. They explore the guilt and shame often associated with pornography consumption among Christian youth, the neurological effects of porn addiction, the theological implications, and navigate how to guide young people towards healthier understandings of sex and relationships.

Has your kid seen porn? Research says 1 in 3 kids have seen explicit, hardcore porn by the age of 12, many by accident.Whether or not your tween or teen has seen it the fact that hardcore porn is widely available, free, and easily accessed from any device with an internet connection will be having an impact on the whole culture they are growing up in.We want our teens to feel that it's normal and natural to be interested in sex, and want to explore what's out there, but talking about it the modern issues can be a minefield. Whilst we're openly trying to teach our kids about consent, and educate our boys to be respectful of women, what they might be accessing online is the opposite. Much of it is degrading, and objectifying, and normalises potentially dangerous and harmful sexual behaviour.A lot of parents I have spoken with don't know how to have those conversations, so I contacted Dr Mandy Sanchez, from Culture Reframed, an organisation that provides free education resources and worksheets for parents. In this episode she talks about how, and when, to talk about porn with your kid.www.culturereframed.orgwww.teenagersuntangled.comThanks for listening.

From Porn Star to Pastor: Joshua Broome's Journey of Redemption Joshua Broome in conversation with Billy Hallowell This week Premier Unbelievable delves into the extraordinary life transformation of Joshua Broome. In this gripping interview we unravel the tale of a man who reached the pinnacle of fame and fortune in the adult film industry, only to be left empty, broken, and yearning for something more.  The interview has much to say to those struggling with addiction to porn, those caught up in creating it and those wondering what to do about its growing influence on our society. “I was one of the most successful adult film stars in the world," says Broome. "I obtained fame, wealth, and travelled the world all to find out that none of those would fill the emptiness in my heart. Then, I found Jesus."   Billy Hallowell, host of Unbelievable?, peels back the layers of Joshua's remarkable journey, from his meteoric rise to be one of the top five male porn stars, with over 1,000 movies under his belt and numerous accolades, to his haunting realisation that success alone couldn't fill the void within his soul. Joshua describes 2012, the year he won male porn performer of the year, as the worst year of his life.  Discover how Joshua found redemption in Jesus which led him eventually to become a pastor. Through his own experiences, he shares profound insights on how we can confront our past actions, and any shame attached to them, to embrace forgiveness and find true fulfilment. It's a transformative personal narrative, which offers hope to those wanting to escape the grip of pornography, as well as a warning about the broader dangers of porn within society. https://www.joshuabroome.me/ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/iamjoshuabroome/?hl=en If you would like someone to talk to about anything that has affected you by this show, please call Premier Lifeline our confidential helpline offering a listening ear, and emotional and spiritual support.

This is an episode for parents and caregivers who are: worried their kids might see porn / their kids HAVE seen porn and they don't know what to do. We'd also love to hear from anyone who has dealt with this tricky subject with success (email us thatsexedpodcast@gmail.com).In this episode, Justine and Jenny talk about how confronting it is when you learn your child has seen sexual material online.  Topics covered: gaming and grooming; what we've dealt with as parents ourselves; what parents should think about *before* they give their kids a mobile phone; parental controls and filters (see helpful resources listed below); invasion of our kids' privacy versus keeping them safe; the value of talking to other parents -- especially those with older children. They've been through it and have great advice. More topics: TikTok and online sexual exploitation of young people; the power of 'likes' and 'follows'; Heartstopper, a TV show that Justine really likes; the idea of phone contracts; talking with other parents before sleepovers and playdates (are we more worried about offending another adult or protecting our children?); how to talk about porn with even very young children.Resources we think are good:eSafety Commissioner (website)Common Sense Media (website where you can learn about film, TV, games and apps)Culture Reframed (website pushing back against sexualisation of young people)Officer Gomez on Facebook (US-based, works in schools and is quite 'zero tolerance' with tech, which may not always be practical however is great for trends, what the latest apps are and how kids use technology -- and some of the tricks they learn)Family Zone (website, Australian, has filter products and a help service/desk where parents can contact to get help with setting up)You Know Sex - Cory Silverberg (book, which includes conversation starters)Please visit our website sexeducationaustralia.com.au where you can listen to our other episodes and also browse our pages for more resources, information and support.  Primary resources are listed here  and secondary resources here Send us questions or comments to THATsexedpodcast@gmail.com Thanks for listening! Jenny + Justine

Pornography is probably as old as art itself.  Whether you indulge, or wouldn't go near it, there has never been a time when it is more graphic, or readily available to children and teens, with the knock-on impact on their own attitudes towards sex and relationships. Just for context, an unbelievable 42 billion individual visitors accessed Pornhub in 2019, averaging more than 115 million visits per day, and that was before COVID.That's why it's critical that we all find a way to have conversations with our teens about what they might access, whether deliberately or by accident, and how to put it into context in a way that will protect them from that harm it can cause. In this episode we looked into the statistics, the science, and the reality of how we talk to our teens and what we need to cover. An organisation has been set up to tackle this very issue. You can access all of their material via the Culture Reframed website.

Hey parents! Do you know what Pornhub is? Chances are, your kids know enough about it to carry on a conversation around the lunch table at school. Are you prepared to fight back against this multi-million-dollar monstrosity? We’ve recently had an epiphany—a lightbulb moment if you will. Since we fight porn every day, we took it for granted that everyone knows what Pornhub is, but apparently that’s not the case! (See story below.) Well … you can’t stop an enemy if you don’t know it exists. So today we’re giving you the parent’s definitive guide to Pornhub.  Can’t fight what you don’t know A few weeks ago Marilyn was in a women's meeting. The ladies were talking generally about choices, and then they started discussing how you might respond if you see a threat creeping in on someone or something you love. The first thing is to decide between doing something or nothing, right?  She had an example to share, so she spoke up:  My heart was bursting, because a friend of mine had told me the day before how she had immediately acted on what she perceived as a threat to her whole community. Recently, a couple local radio hosts in our area had been promoting Pornhub on their show—a kind of joke, or a publicity stunt. I wrote about one such incident on our blog [add link].  Well, when my friend heard this happen on a separate occasion she immediately pulled over (she was driving at the time) and wrote detailed notes on her phone about what she had heard on the radio. Then as soon as she got home, she emailed the radio host and lodged a formal complaint with the broadcasting standards council. Yes!!! Citizens in Action! (That’s what we love to see! Just like we were talking about in our episode with Melissa Blair, Campaign for a Porn-free Childhood.) I thought my women friends  would be stoked. To be honest, they all looked kind of underwhelmed. That was, until one of them blurted out. “What’s Pornhub?” (Bless her heart for asking!) I was stunned. I had assumed everyone knew about Pornhub—even the blue-hairs in our group. As Forbes magazine points out:  [QUOTE]“With page stat numbers in the billions, it's hard to imagine that there are people on this planet somehow not viewing or uploading content to Pornhub. I looked around and I saw many women (younger and older), with the same confused look, waiting for my response. To be clear, they all know pornography is accessable on the web. They just had no idea that it was operating as an efficient above-ground industry. Related Content: Radio Station Promotes Pornography: 3 Easy Ways to Take Action Maybe you already know a bit about how the porn industry operates online. Maybe this is news to you. No matter what knowledge-base you’re starting at, this episode has take-aways for every person concerned with protecting kids from internet pornography. Don’t forget to subscribe to Media Savvy Moms on your favourite podcasting platform! What is Pornhub? [4:20] Pornhub is the largest pornographic video-sharing platform in the world. Oh, and it’s free! Think YouTube, except exclusively for hardcore pornography.  [6:15] Learn about MindGeek, the sneaky Montreal based company that is monopolizing the online porn industry. However, if you visit their corporate website, you’d have no idea what they actually do. [7:55] Having trouble believing porn is such a big industry? Here are some statistics from Forbes magazine. Pornhub is very proud and very public about their numbers. Remember, this is just one website. In 2019, they boasted... 42 billion visits to Pornhub 115 million visitors a day 6.8 million videos were uploaded  1.36 million hours of new content (=169 years)  98,000 new models (as in, amature porn stars ... these are human beings)  [10:10] Learn about Pornhub’s mission to normalize porn consumption through methods like academic scholarships, attempts to sponsor sports teams, and--of course--advertising.

With so much talk about the sex-positive movement, it is easy to become confused and question what position to stand on as feminists. Anne sits down with Jessica Skye Barr, from Culture Reframed, to discuss why pornography is a feminist issue.

Pornography in the United States is a massive business; some reports estimate it brings in approximately one trillion dollars in annual revenue. In this episode, we look at the differences in how women and men consume porn, how it impacts relationships and its influence on society at large. We discuss pornography's cultural implications with Samuel Perry, professor of sociology and religious studies, Cindy Gallop, CEO of MakeLoveNotPorn, and Dr. Gail Dines, anti-porn scholar and CEO of Culture Reframed.

Meghan Murphy speaks with Rebecca Whisnant about the harms of porn and why those of us who challenge it are dismissed so readily.

The London Abused Women’s Centre, Canada; Collective Shout, Australia; Culture Reframed, USA; and The National Center on Sexual Exploitation (NCOSE), USA have partnered to raise awareness that Fifty Shades of Grey - and it's latest film installment Fifty Shades Darker - normalizes domestic violence. The Fifty Shades trilogy follows wealthy and powerful businessman Christian Grey as he meets Anastasia Steele, a virginal college student lacking confidence, and woos her into his BDSM (sexual sadism or torture sex) world and “red room of pain.” The relationship maps onto what would be considered an abusive relationship rife domestic violence in the real world. Christian puts Ana under contract to serve as a sexual “submissive” and uses intimidation, coercion, humiliation, violence, stalking, manipulation, jealousy and other controlling behaviors to groom Ana and keep her under his domination. Ana is consistently isolated, threatened, and manipulated, yet she comes back to Christian time and time again because she thinks her love can change him. As the story progresses, Ana, who was first fearful and disturbed by Christian’s controlling behaviors and dark sexual practices, gradually becomes desensitized to his harsh treatment. These are hallmarks of abusive relationships. You can read examples of domestic abuse in the Fifty Shades book here. The mainstreaming of this book also sends the message to women that they can “fix” violent, controlling men by being obedient and loving. Call to Action: 1) Sign this pledge to boycott the film. 2) Donate to a women's shelter instead of visiting the film through DomesticShelters.org. 3) Share graphics and learn more at FiftyShadesIsAbuse.com.
