Teen: “I started watching PORN in 2nd Grade”
Testimony courtesy of Jackie Brewton
“Before you came, I was addicted to watching porn and I never told anyone. Not my parents, not even my friends.
I started watching it at an early age and I started because of a game called Minecraft. I was downloading the game and an ad popped up on the screen and it was a porn ad of people having sex, and this was a kid’s game with a porn ad.
I got curious and I started watching. I clicked and clicked and I found out what masturbation was […]
5 Things You Can Do to Ensure Your Children are Safe Online During Quarantine
National Center on Sexual Exploitation, March 17, 2020
COVID-19. SARS-CoV-2. Call it what you want, but the novel coronavirus is all anyone is talking about anymore. The COVID-19 health pandemic has closed schools, cancelled most activities, and isolated most everyone at home all at once. In the midst of the social distancing, self-isolation, quarantines, and lockdowns, we’re all feeling some cabin fever and parents, in particular, may be feeling overwhelmed by the prospect of eight weeks of time with their children home from school unexpectedly.
Now more than ever, kids and teens will be spending extra time online via phones, tablets, laptops, […]

The serious allegations levied against Pornhub owner Mindgeek centre on the […]
No mainstream entity should profit from or facilitate sexual exploitation.
Unfortunately, many well-established brands, companies, and organizations in America do just that. Since 2013, the National Center on Sexual Exploitation has published an annual Dirty Dozen List to name and shame the mainstream players in America that perpetuate sexual exploitation—whether that be through pornography, prostitution, sexual objectification, sexual violence and/or sex trafficking.
The Dirty Dozen List is an activism tool that gives back power to individuals who want a voice in the culture. People can participate by taking easy online actions, from sending emails to sharing social media messages.
In today’s world, corporations drive our culture. They influence how people communicate, how […]
Review of “Comprehensive” School-Based Sex Ed Finds INCREASES in Sexual Activity
A global research review of school-based “comprehensive sex education” programs that emphasize condom use and use of contraceptives as primary strategies recommended to youth found very little effectiveness from these programs and instead found increased sexual activity.
The review, conducted by the Institute for Research & Evaluation and published in the Institute of Law and Medicine in January, examined 60 studies of 40 school-based comprehensive sex education programs in the U.S. as well as 43 studies of 39 programs in other countries.
The review found “little evidence that [comprehensive sex education] programs are effective at producing positive impact on their participants” and […]
