There’s no doubt about it: the Internet has led to major changes in the way we do just about everything— including receiving sexual gratification. There are 42 million porn sites on the ‘Net and 40 million Americans admit to regularly visiting adults sites. In addition, 90 percent of children 8- to 16-years-old have been exposed to porn while doing their homework. Is this healthy?
Psychologist Sam Alibrando will talk about this timely, titillating topic as he explores what sex addiction is and isn’t, and why more of it occurs during stressful times.
He can talk about:
• Whether we should be troubled that 25 percent of all search requests involve pornography.
• Why the brain craves certain substances or “pastimes.”
• Why Sen. Larry Craig might not be gay after all and whether Bill Clinton is likely to cause Hillary further embarrassment.
• What sex addicts, CEOs and mothers all have in common.
• Whether addictive people can change and what resources are available to them.
