Journalist Tanner Owens explores why turning to pornography for sex education isn’t a good idea in this insightful opinion piece published in the University of Oregon’s Daily Emerald News, entitled, “Don’t Let Pornography Show You How It’s Done.” Wendy is quoted as one of the sexuality experts who was interviewed for the article. The piece mentions The Porn Trap book.
Larry and I are pleased to report that our book “The Porn Trap: The Essential Guide to Overcoming Problems Caused by Pornography” 跳出色情陷阱 is now available in an open (ie. unadulterated) Chinese translation. We want to thank Carmen Song, the amazing translator, and Law Press of China for recognizing the need for a resource to help the growing numbers of young people in China who are reporting problems caused by porn.
Truth is: today’s porn is a global concern.
