Early exposure to pornography: a form of sexual trauma.
Open Access: Yes.
Abstract
Based on a few brief case-studies, the author advocates viewing early childhood exposure to pornography as “a form of sexual trauma.”
Relevance
When we screen for ACEs (adverse childhood experiences), we should inquire about [pornography] exposure, at what age, the degree or dose, and its impact on the person’s views and behaviors around sexuality.”
