Episode Description
Haley McNamara (SVP at NCOSE) and Dani Pinter (SVP and Director of the Law Center at NCOSE) take a closer look at the impact that pornography use has on our sexual arousal template. More specifically, they discuss some studies that have been done to demonstrate the rise in violent sexual behavior like choking or strangulation. These experiments were able to condition men to be aroused by shapes and inanimate objects, and it demonstrates that when a person is exposed to pornography, they can be conditioned to be aroused by the harmful behaviors that are depicted.
