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!
Hi! After coming across your page and my boyfriend having erectile dysfunction (at 23!), we had a talk last summer about porn! He’s said he can see sexual dysfunction being a side effect and didn’t know porn could cause these things. He’s been laying off and things have improved so so much. The discussion guide really helped! So, thank 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 always had the strong feeling that I was alone with this, especially because I’m a woman. But since I started this journey of recovery, I noticed that this is not exclusively a male problem. Girls struggle, too. With a huge amount of courage, I told my best friend about my struggle. She said: “You know what? I don’t care what you’re struggling with. You’re still the same, wonderful person I love so much.” This changed my life. I started to tell more people that I trusted and always got a similar response: we’re in this together.
So to all the Fighters out there, I want to encourage you! Tell someone you trust about your struggle. It will not get better by hiding and shaming yourself. You are powerful and worthy of love! I’m currently still recovering. My journey is not over yet. But I hang in there. I know one day I will be able to say that I beat this. And I can’t wait for this day!
Hello, I just want to say thank you so much for the help. I haven’t watched porn since June 2020. I’ve been hurting my girlfriend for years, whom I love very much. It’s crazy how addicting porn can be and how it negatively impacts someone’s life and their loved ones. I truly appreciate the help and guidance you guys gave me.
I am so grateful for your commitment to spreading love in this way and through this community. You are a force for good in a space that is so desperate for it. And I am so grateful to you for being an empowering group, sharing your values with the world in such an honest, loving, and beautiful way. You have empowered me and given me hope. I want to express just how special you are. To every person who reads this and has it in their heart to share this message: thank you. To everyone who took it upon themselves to build this platform and bring this message of love and freedom and truth into the world: thank you. You are truly a light and a force for good. Thank you for sharing what is in your heart.
I’ve been struggling for a long time now and it’s time for me to stop. I watched the documentary last night and it really helped to see the other side of the issue. I’m very addicted to it and I stayed strong yesterday and I’m planning to keep it like that! Thank you for all you do, and I’m probably going to order a shirt today.
Really good documentary. I was struggling with pornography until I broke up with my girlfriend. Now that I have lost someone who was special to me, I understand the consequences of consuming it. It’s sad that my relationship didn’t work out, but this gives me another reason to fight for real love.
