Abstract
We are in the midst of a massive social experiment that is having a seismic
impact on the sexual templates, behaviors, emotional wellbeing, and attitudes of
youth. Never before have we brought up a generation of boys who are a click away
from viewing free hardcore mainstream pornography or girls who are growing up
in this pornified culture.4 The domestication of the Internet, which began around
the year 2000, made pornography affordable, accessible, and anonymous, the
three key factors to increase demand and consumption.
