May 8, 2019 7:10AM CDT
- The Arizona State Senate has voted to declare pornography to be a ‘public health crisis’, although it’s not clear what steps will be taken to address it.
- The bill declares that porn “perpetuates a sexually toxic environment” responsible for “emotional, mental, and medical illnesses” and an inability to form intimate relationships.
- The bill also claims that more and more children are being exposed to pornography, leading to problems like eating disorders and low self-esteem.
- The bill is a non-binding resolution and does not propose any concrete steps to curb porn usage.
- Do you think pornography is responsible for some of the issues we face today? Has the internet made it worse?
