@Norm - I believe the Pink Cross Foundation can help you out. One of their leaders is a guy named Ryan who is an ex-porn star. They would be able to tell you more about that side of the story.

I actually have a question. I’ve been searching all day, with little luck, for the perspective of pornography from a male ex-porn actor, but I can find little. I know the effects that pornography has on women in the industry, but what about the men? And what about men who are in the gay porn industry, I’m sure that effects them differently because many are not gay, but do it because they are paid more money?

I think it’s great work you’re doing in helping people’s lives… probably even saving lives. It’s amazing and inspirational sister. I’ve always felt that porn was unhealthy for EVERYONE, but your clarification in how it supports terrible lifestyles and insensitive industries nails the coffin shut for me. Porn is clearly an addiction to all involved.

Mark, Thanks for stopping by and reading Shelley's post. If you haven't heard of our accountability software and how it helps guys who are struggling with pornography, go to our "About Covenant Eyes" page and read about how it might help you in your pursuit of purity.

This is an excellent blog about this destructive industry. Thank you Shelly. May God bless you.

I also read Mike’s response and it is very helpful. May God bless you as well.

I am currently ensnared in pornography and masturbation. I have been a christian for almost 10 years and it wasn’t until I started having sex that porn became an issue for me. At 1st it was just masturbation and then that became boring and so I became interested in online porn. I really want to overcome this disease I have and I have taken some steps that are helping me battle. My wife knows about my problem and has taken steps with me to disable our internet from viewing porn. I also have an open line of communication with her and we talk when I am struggling and are weak.

I am always looking for accountability in my life, even with believers I do not know.

God bless.

I have been in recovery from drugs and alc for 8 years but never was aware of the root of my drug and alc problem. These chemicles made it better….made the sex and porn addiction better, or so I believed. Never have I EXPERIENCED “CRAVING” like this. Not even when getting off the crack. The craving for sexual acting out has been constant. Over the 100 odd days of abstinance, it is subsiding. I am learning to talk myself down and out of the unhealthy thoughts that have haunted me since 12 years old.
