0:00.0	Hi there and welcome to today's show.
0:03.8	For those parents out there that have little ears in the room, today's conversation gets very
0:11.2	adult very quickly.
0:12.9	So take a moment now to grab a pair of headphones to listen to today's pod.
0:20.2	Today we are going to be talking all about sex,
0:24.5	pornography, and how to talk to our kids about it. In recent years, we have seen a rise in
0:31.6	pornography. Children view porn earlier now than ever before. Parents are so scared to freely discuss sex with
0:41.2	their children that 60% of adolescents and teens report watching pornography to, quote, fill in the
0:50.2	gaps of their sexual education. Children between the ages of 8 to 18 spend approximately
0:57.5	seven and a half hours per day devoted to media. And more than half of the media that they
1:04.2	consume during the day contains sexual references. Studies have shown that women are as likely to be depicted in sexually
1:14.0	provocative clothing in G-rated movies as they are in R-rated movies. 51% of 15 to 19-year-olds
1:23.7	believe that girls feel pressure to share sexually explicit images online.
1:29.9	In studies of both men and women with sex addiction, pornography plays a major contributor to
1:37.6	addictive behaviors. So how does porn culture change our brains and how can parents do a better job teaching their children about sexual norms without shame and with enough clarity that children do not feel the need to look at pornographic images to inform their understanding of sex?
2:00.2	Today's guest is Emily Goddrow.
2:02.7	She is a former playboy photographer turned child sexual abuse prevention educator and
2:10.5	anti-pornography activists.
2:13.1	She is a woman on a mission to stop the cycle of sexual trauma and open our eyes to the high price that we pay for our pornified culture.
2:24.5	Welcome to the Lindsay Elmore Show, a podcast that helps you find fulfillment amidst chaos.
2:30.1	On this show, I interview thought leaders, doctors, creatives, spiritual gurus, and game changers who inspire you to pursue your dreams, overcome obstacles, and leave your mark.
2:45.3	Emily, I am so excited to talk to you today. Welcome to the Lindsay Elmore Show.
