Did you know?…

  • About 200,000 Americans are classified as “porn addicts”

  • 40 million Americans regularly visit porn sites

  • 35% of all internet downloads are related to pornography

  • 34% of internet users have experienced unwanted exposure to pornographic content through ads, pop up ads, misdirected links, or emails

Porn is addictive and harmful. Studies have found that rates of divorce double for men and women when they begin watching pornography. Instances of Intimate Partner Violence are also related to pornography use. If you are interested in learning more about the reasons behind porn addiction, the harm it causes, and the resources that can help, watch our live Real Talk conversation with Amany Shalaby, our Hakima (Wise Woman and Chaplain), and Imam Sykes, a marriage counselor.
