Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa konsumsi pornografi berlebihan belum masuk kategori kecanduan.
Research suggests ‘problematic porn use’ is a more accurate way to describe the potential harms of pornography.
New rules aimed at protecting kids online are now in force, but a major porn company has all but shut down its Australian presence instead.
These images are being shared in an attempt to harass, demean or silence individuals.
A host of other restrictions will affect social media use in the coming months. Our research shows teens worry about them – and will find a way around them.
The first ever state-based inquiry into the impacts of porn challenges simplistic ideas in favour of nuance, and calls for better sex ed.
Horrific allegations of gang rape and reports of the targeting of reproductive facilities have alarmed the international community, but sadly, the strategy is not new.
Draft rules to restrict ‘age-inappropriate content’ may also affect essential information about sex and sexual health.
Young people have reported how consent can be painted as a simple ‘yes’ or ‘no’ act, rather than an ongoing discussion between sexual partners.
Many parents will use strategies to minimise potential privacy risks, such as by blurring their children’s faces in online posts. But is that enough?
Adults have blamed porn for many things recently, including harming teenagers. We asked teens what they thought and their opinions paint a complex picture.
When should you start discussing sex with your child? It may be earlier than you think: It starts with consent.
There are big gaps in the way schools approach gender, sexuality and respect. Teaching all students to be ‘porn literate’ is one way we can help make them safer.
New research shows how current messages to ‘simply avoid’ sexting do not work for young people.
In new interview research, young people say sex education most often occurs without discussing actual sex.
Consent education now is patchy and inconsistent. Many schools focus exclusively on safety, which may come at the cost of the enjoyable benefits of human connection.
Teens deserve to be empowered by knowledge of the pleasures of sex.
