It is important to stay vigilant about where your information is going. Be mindful and be watchful. Let’s work together to protect our rights and our privacy.

Thank you Senator Ted Cruz and Senator Amy Klobuchar for being a part of our passionate journey to advocate and educate others about the harmful affects of po*******hy.

Deepfakes are pictures that are taken (not given) from anyone and then used to create po*******hy images of them. This is not only a violation of privacy but a disgusting break of trust between humanity. Learn more from https://fightthenewdrug.org/deepfakes-are-on-the-rise-heres-what-you-need-to-know/

Po*******hy is not just exploring sexuality, it can be filled with horrible and degrading things. You have to be careful what you are allowing into your mind and the way it is falsely depicting those in the world. Fighting against po*******hy means also fighting for the right of all to be treated and respected.

Just like any addiction, po*******hy is something that continues to get more intense the more you consume. The more you watch po*******hy, the easier it will be to build up a tolerance to it. Then, the next thing you know, you will find yourself consuming more po*******hy that continues to build in intensity. Do yourself a favor and don’t allow yourself to go there. If you do have an addiction, there is help! Don’t be afraid to reach out to professionals and start to heal.

In today’s world, there is a lot of violence in the media. Whether it is on TV, in movies, in video games, or in po*******hy, when children are exposed to violence at such an early age, it can cause some serious damage. You are not only saving your children from misunderstanding true intimacy but also from being scared by violent behavior. Protect your kids!

Just like any drug, po*******hy can make you numb to real things. After a while, you realize that you cannot feel things without your addiction. This can be especially true in your relationship with your partner. The artificial stimulation created by po*******hy cheapens true intimacy.

We want to keep our children safe. Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do to protect them from being exposed to po*******hy. This is why building a healthy relationship involving consistent communication is so important. It is also important to figure out what they are being exposed to in school. You can be involved in your children’s schools and find ways to promote and protect them more thoroughly.

Navigating dating can be a very intimidating and scary thing. There are lots of things that are entailed when it comes to dating but po*******hy should not be one of them. Watching p**n is not the key to a healthy relationship. It creates a false sense of reality and will ruin your true feelings. Trust in the process and stay away from things that will destroy that. You got this!

Holidays bring us together! Real relationships with our friends and family help us overcome those hard isolated addictions like po*******hy. If you haven’t reached out to your friends or family recently, do it. You have no idea what the power of inclusion and love can have on someone, especially someone with an addiction. You may even be able to help someone from developing an addiction in the first place.
