I recently decided to wear my PKL shirt to O’Hare airport. I immediately noticed lots of staring, which is expected when you’re wearing a shirt that has the word “porn.” A few people stopped me to tell me they loved my shirt, many smiled and pointed. It was refreshing to see people reacting and hopefully having meaningful conversations after seeing it. The best part was while entering the aircraft, a flight attendant greeted us and after reading my shirt, her face lit up! She loved the message and had her coworker come see it as well. During the flight, the flight attendant offered me a complimentary beer “for wearing such an awesome shirt.”
By supporting FTND, you aren’t just giving your money to another nonprofit. You are provided with a tool to spread an empowering, world-changing message. By wearing a shirt with the 3 simple words “Porn Kills Love,” I was able to raise awareness, start conversations for many, and pass the message along.

I just received my “People ≠ Products” shirt and I’m thrilled with it! Thank you also for sending stickers, I’m going to put them on my laptop and water bottle to further rep the movement! Thank you, thank you, thank you for everything you do. A lot of people close to me have been affected by porn, so it’s something I’m very passionate about. I appreciate that you’re a non-religious organization so I have a secular, scientific resource to share with people who are skeptical about objecting to porn on moral or religious grounds. I discovered you guys through one of my friends who constantly wears his PKL shirts. He’s had a lot of struggles with porn, but he’s so open about it and has helped so many people! You guys as a community encourage me so much.

This resource has helped me tremendously in breaking my almost every-night porn habit. I have been totally sober for about eight months now and I’ve never been more passionate about spreading the word that porn kills love and letting people know about all the other garbage porn comes along with. So, thank you guys for being so instrumental in this change!

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.

I am a recovering porn and sex addict and I just want you all to know that you are doing great work. My choices in looking at pornography have hurt the most important person in my life so much. I feel like a monster and now all I can do is to try to help contribute to fighting against this awful culture and industry. I have been listening to your podcasts and it truly disgusts me that I was contributing to so much exploitation and abuse in the industry. No one should ever have to go through those things and I truly will always consider before consuming now. Thank you.

This issue has left me feeling sad, helpless, angry, misunderstood, and lonely for so many years. Your team did amazing work by creating research-based content that makes it possible to have an actual constructive discussion about it. Reading through your website reminded me that we are not alone in this fight for change. Thank you so much for all the hard work you put in there. It really made a difference for me!

Thank you! At the beginning of this year, I caught my husband looking at porn. He was exposed to it at a young age and addicted the majority of his life. It was probably one of the most painful experiences I’ve gone through. Now he’s been openly sharing with others his story, has been free of porn, has an accountability group, and he is just is able to enjoy a life without porn’s hold on him. It’s been so difficult to go through this, but we’re fighting! Thank you for your encouragement in a world that normalizes porn.

I know you guys probably get hundreds of DMs, but I just wanted to thank the people who run this account. I have struggled with porn since I accidentally came across it on Pinterest (of all the places) when I was 10 years old. My entire childhood/young adulthood has been plagued by the horrible cycle of guilt, shame, resistance, redemption, and inevitable pain again that comes from a life of porn addiction. And it hurts so badly to know that my feelings are nothing compared to those of the people I helped exploit. It’s haunting. On nights that I’m struggling, getting on Instagram and reading your stories gives me the strength to say no. Thank you for helping me in the fight for real love. I fight for the dignity of every person.
