A Conversation About Porn for Purity Culture Dropouts
What People Are Saying:
“Loved the porn for PCD webinar! Thank you! It truly helped me release SO much anxiety. Since leaving Christianity, my sexual ethic has evolved so much and this topic has been one piece of the puzzle that I was not sure what do to with. My church was obsessed with anti-porn talks, addiction model religious counseling, etc. The messaging was so shameful and I remember being terrified…I can honestly say that i feel so much lighter after attending your class. Education is empowering and it helps heal old wounds. Thank you again!”
Almost three hours of education!
Does porn kill love? Is it a public health crisis? Is it true that it can change your brain? Are the performers exploited? Should you be upset if your partner looks at porn? Does looking at it (or even thinking about it) make you feel guilty? If you were raised to believe “yes” is the only answer to the above questions but want to hear a more balanced take on the topic of pornography and pornography consumption, this class is for you. Join sex educator Erica Smith, creator of the Purity Culture Dropout program, as she explores the above messages PLUS: The history of porn, research on the effects of viewing porn, the church’s involvement in the anti-porn movement, what it means for porn to be “ethical,” and how we can practice porn literacy as viewers.
Erica is joined by adult performer Siri Dahl, who shares her personal story and experience of working in the industry. This class isn’t an attempt to get you to believe that porn is good or bad. We aim to present a nuanced take, share the facts as we know them, challenge the church’s one sided view, and invite you to make up your mind about the role of porn in your own life.
