And the thing that really stuck with me at the end, because, I mean, they described everything that I knew and that kind of exposure to this kind of material and how things have changed from analog and us looking at magazines in a bush to blockbuster video to the onset of broadband to then digital and then smartphones.
And how that was going to change all of our behaviors because this undercurrent lived underneath societally.
It was acceptable here and then where this lib was under, but was fully accessible.
And that was going to change all of our behavior.
And I remember the line that stuck with me was, this might not be a problem for everyone.
because everybody has their own spectrum, their own connectivity to this.
And this really is an issue for everybody connected to a device.
They said, this might not be a problem for everybody.
but it could be a problem for anybody.
The amount of access that is available to anybody at any one time to create that kind of reaction that is a drug, it is creating the same neurological change in you that drugs do.
that level of exposure could be a problem for absolutely anybody and i think when you understand that and look at how children are consuming it yeah how kids as young as six are accessing this accessing this kind of material the kids between 11 and 13 have all seen there's an average age of kids coming across pornography the 80 percent of it come across social media
that's when you understand that this is a public health crisis.
This is, everybody can admit that no children should be exposed to pornography at any age.
But when there is a majority of children that are accessing it and seeing it well before they're of any legal age, well before they've had any conversation about sex,
that years before they have their first sexual education class or discussion in family, they've already had years of exposure to this stuff online.
That's a crisis because it's fundamental to how we exist in society.
And if they're using this as their model,
as an education for what sex looks like in their lives.
Fast forward 10 years and it gets to the worst that we're seeing in society today, but at an even more accelerated rate.
You're right.
