Her educational websitewww.HealthySex.com has numerous articles that assist in pornography problem prevention and recovery.)
PORNOGRAPHY ADDICTION: If you're having difficulty with pornography addiction or compulsion, and you need help or someone to talk to, we are not properly equipped to effectively assist you. However the good news is that there are many people who are able to do so, so please see our pornography addiction page here, where you will find many excellent resources, including professional pornography addiction therapists and treatment organizations. Please seek professional help if you are able to, and/or join an online support forum/messageboard such as the one atwww.no-porn.com.
There are many people who post at the no-porn.com forum message board who are going through what you are, or have in the past, so you don't have to go through your struggles alone. They understand. So if you cannot afford a professional therapist, please visit the message board there at no-porn.com and share what is going on with you in order to get support from others. Note: there are many other pornography addiction message boards on the Internet. Please see our pornography addiction page for other websites with message boards or forums, or scroll down to the footer of this page and check out the pornography addiction section.
QUESTIONS: If you have any questions about anything to do with pornography or AntiPornography.org, please read our
"Frequently Asked Questions & Responses to Pro-Pornography Arguments." and also our full homepage here.If your question is about AntiPornography.org specifically, you also might find helpful to read our "About" page here. If your question is not answered there, please review the links on the left side of this page to see if the topic that you are wondering about is covered somewhere on this website, and also check out the FAQs by other anti-pornography groups, organizations and individuals that are listed further down this page. If you don't find the answer to your question after doing all of those, please feel free to submit respectful questions here.
CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM OR POLITE SUGGESTION: Please feel free to respectfully submit any feedback you have that falls into this category here. Thank you in advance for being courteous!
SEEKING HELP FOR AN ANTI-PORNOGRAPHY PROJECT: If you are looking for assistance for an anti-pornography project that you are working on or would like to do, we are very sorry, but unfortunately other than providing a link to whatever project you are working on, (which you can share with us here), we are not able to help you because dealing with this website and all the associated websites, and all of the people that are constantly reaching out to us for help because they have been harmed by pornography, etc., is already more than can be kept up with. In fact we ourselves could use some help in catching up with the large backlogs of work that are waiting to be done. But we wish you all the best in finding the help you are looking for. There are countless millions of people in the world who are against the harms of pornography and who are also in a position to help with the cause and have the time, but aren't doing so, and those are the people that need to be reached out to and motivated to get involved and are the ones who should be helping you. You can find many of them at social networking websites such as Facebook. Just search their groups and Pages sections for "anti-pornography," "antipornography," "anti-porn," and "antiporn." You will find many groups, some with hundreds or thousands of members, that you can ask for help with activist projects.
IDEAS OR SUGGESTIONS FOR ANTI-PORNOGRAPHY ACTIVIST ACTIONS AND PROJECTS: If you have an idea for something that could be done that you think would help with the cause, excellent. Please go ahead and carry out that idea. It takes the work and commitment of all of us to get the job done, and we are already more than busy with the projects that we have going here at AntiPornography.org and at many other websites on the Internet. So your help is needed. Please feel free to send a link to any Internet documentation of your work and we will be happy to post it here to support you. (When you're ready you can submit that link here.) IN OTHER WORDS: Please do NOT e-mail us with any ideas or suggestions of anything more that you would like us to do in addition to our current projects, as we will not be able to do those projects, due to needing to focus on already existing commitments. Please do whatever work or projects you think need to be done YOURSELF, as YOUR contribution to the cause. Your help will be much appreciated. Thanks! :-)
LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO TALK TO ABOUT PORNOGRAPHY ISSUES: We understand how hard it can be to feel alone about the issue of pornography and have no one to talk to about it. So it is important to connect with others of like mind. The good news is that there are many places on the Internet where you can find others who feel like you do. You can find many of them at social networking websites such as Facebook. Just search their groups sections for "anti-pornography," "antipornography," "anti-porn," and "antiporn." You will find many groups, some with hundreds of members, with people who have the time and willingness to talk to you. Also please scroll down further on this page and look in the message boards sections and check those out. Please keep looking until you find the right place for you online where you feel at home and there are people you feel comfortable with to talk to.
OTHER CONCERNS: If you disagree with any content on this website, or are in favor of pornography and think it is harmless, and you have any negative criticisms about anything to do with AntiPornography.org, (as opposed to polite suggestions and constructive criticisms), please realize that virtually every negative criticism and concern in regards to pornography and related issues has already been shared by others literally thousands of times, so we are aware of all opposing opinions and positions. We know that you might think that we are misguided, wasting our time, that we should be working on other "more important" problems, etc., ad infinitum. So there is no need for you to spend time and energy on repeating what others have already stated countless times. If you want to confirm that your point of view has been heard, and you would like to see what we have to say in response, please do have a look at our "Frequently Asked Questions & Responses to Pro-Pornography Arguments," as most concerns are addressed there. http://www.antipornography.org/faq.html

DESCRIPTION
Pornland: How Porn Has Hijacked Our Sexualitytakes an unflinching look at today’s porn industry: the stories woven into the images, the impact on our culture, the effects on us as men and women, the business machine that creates and markets porn, and the growing legitimacy of porn in mainstream media. Above all, PORNLAND examines the way porn shapes and limits sexual imaginations and behaviors.
Although we are surrounded by pornographic images, many people are not aware of just how cruel and violent the industry is today. PORNLANDshows how today’s porn is strikingly different from yesterday’s Playboy and Penthouse magazines — how competition in the industry and consumer desensitization have pushed porn toward hard core extremes. And, with the advent of the internet and other digital technologies, users don’t have to wander far to access porn; todaythe average age of first viewing is about 11 for boys, and studies reveal that young men, who consume more porn than ever before, have difficulty forming healthy relationships.
PORNLAND also looks at how our porn culture affects the way women and girls think about their bodies, their sexuality and their relationships. PORNLAND: How Porn has Hijacked our Sexuality argues that rather than sexually liberating or empowering us, porn offers us a plasticized, formulaic, generic version of sex that is boring, lacking in creativity and disconnected from emotion and intimacy.

(Note: The No Porn Northampton FAQ is in the bottom half of their sidebar. In addition to the usual questions about pornography it addresses questions and concerns about activism against sexually oriented businesses such as "adult bookstores.")
Shared Hope International specifically focuses on fighting the demand for commercial sexual exploitaiton, including addressing pornography as a very significant demand factor for sex trafficking.
"Pornography is a marketing device for sex trafficking: It normalizes degradation and violence as acceptable and even inevitable parts of sex, and uses the bodies of real women and children as objects. The difference between pornography and erotica is clear in the roots of the words themselves -- porne means females slaves, eros means love -- so pornography, like rape, is about violence and domination, not sex. Millions of lives depend on our ability to separate pornography from erotica, and to disentangle violence from sexuality."
Gloria Steinem, 2006

YOUR HELP IS NEEDED. PLEASE DONATE IF YOU ARE ABLE TO.

It is an enormous job and the responsibility lies with each and every one of us to do our part as part of the bigger team of those who are choosing to be part of the solution of creating a more just and humane world for everyone, rather than be part of the problem.
