Since 2009, we've given visibility to research and personal accounts demonstrating how pornography can negatively impact individuals, relationships, and society. Through this grassroots movement, millions of people have found hope and freedom. We couldn't do this without Fighters like you!
Dear FTND, I just wanted to say thank you. I am a normal tenth-grade girl who was told my whole life that porn was “gross and dirty.” I wanted to understand outside of my own context why it was “bad.” Your website has provided me with the information I needed to justify why I took my stand against pornography. In English class, I was able to speak for 6 minutes about something; I chose the dangers of porn. It wasn’t easy, but my heart breaks for this generation of boys and girls who don’t understand why they can’t seem to have functional relationships. I wanted to do something about it. I have had multiple conversations after my speech, and hope that at least one person began to think about the potential consequences of porn. This hasn’t been easy to talk about it, but having the right information definitely made it easier. Thank you.
I just want to thank you for continuing to educate and bring awareness to the effects of pornography. In a message I sent you several years ago, I thought my husband had been without porn for many years only to find out later that he had not stopped his porn use, just kept it quiet. I feel that I would have left this marriage or be in the process had it not been for the amazing articles you continue to post about how porn affects the mind, etc. Your efforts to fight this drug are paying off and you have saved my marriage and I’m sure many others because of it. My husband may still be in the throes of his addiction but he is fighting. I will be here by his side as he fights, wielding my own sword. True love is worth fighting for. Thanks again.
Just wanted to say I’ve been through a lot in my 24 years of life, but my porn/sex obsession has probably been one of the toughest to kick. Maybe it’s because it’s so easy to access, maybe because so many people think it’s okay . . . There are a lot of reasons, but seeing your posts and your stories do help me know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and I’ll be okay. I’ll be better than okay, someday. And I’ll win this fight.
Thank you so much for creating the incredible three-part documentary. Not only did it open my eyes to so many of the impacts of the porn industry, but it has revealed to me how my own behaviors are fuelling and contributing to the problem. I wish you every success and look forward to joining you and helping where I can.
Many years ago in college, I wrote an extensive paper on the side effects of porn production and consumption on different facets of the human being and life/lifestyle. Since that time, the evidence has become even more compelling. Thank you for raising awareness! Your organization is amazing!
I thought you might like to know: I got home today after work, and temptation struck. Interestingly, because I had these videos in my Facebook feed, they were fresh in my mind as I wrestled with the temptation.
And they helped me say no . I thought that might encourage you with your work ❤️
Your organization is doing so much good. You are giving people an outlet who want to get out of the pornography cycle, and educating people who don’t to possibly understand the potential effects that porn can have on the brain and relationships. Also, what I love is that you teach that hope is not lost. Change is always attainable. You can have relationships, you can help others. Thank you again for all the work you do. I remember 5 years ago when you came to my high school and spoke. It has been the only school assembly I remember today. I know that you must receive criticism and opposition to what you do but keep going. You are truly making a difference. Thank you again.
