Make Love Not Porn

I just watched a TEDtalk called "Make Love, Not Porn" on NETFLIX. The blurb says, "Cindy Gallop argues that hardcore pornography has distorted the way a generation of young men think about sex." I think she makes interesting and very valid points about the real consequences of a puritanical culture where many parents and schools are afraid to have a real and honest dialogue with their children about sex. Of COURSE that means that PORN becomes the de facto Sex Education in a world where it's so ubiquitous and freely available on the internet.

To counter this, she has created a site called "www.makelovenotporn.com" which is not about *judging* people's sexual habits, she says, but about presenting an alternative viewpoint. She suggests sharing this with anyone and everyone you think would benefit from the information or the dialogue this might inspire.

There is a big difference on the two. Respect is on the top.
