| Sex Therapy and Big Porn Inc by Sarah Calleja MAPS, MCCP, MASSERT |
30 Sep 2011 |
This blog was written in response to a discussion about Big Porn Inc at the Feminist Forum series held at the University of Melbourne on 13 September.
Congratulations to those involved in researching and writing Big Porn Inc: Exposing the Harms of the Global Pornography Industry edited by Melinda Tankard Reist and Abigail Bray (Spinifex). You are now able to educate readers on the ‘pornification’ of our society and you have shared information to enable the public to make informed choices regarding their use – or not – of porn.
There are some implications in the book that I would like to qualify.
One chapter of the book, ‘Pornography as Sexual Authority: How Sex Therapy Promotes the Pornification of Sexuality’ by Meagan Tyler refers to sex therapists as a single category irrespective of credibility of each individual. As a specialist counselling psychologist and an accredited sexual therapist, I am aware that so many ‘pretenders’ are calling themselves sexual therapists. Most of these pretenders are affiliated in some way with the porn industry and seek to both normalize and legitimize porn by linking it with therapeutic associations but we must not permit that to happen by allowing the pretenders legitimacy.
I have been a sex therapist for 25 years and I have never once promoted porn! My peers and I have undertaken rigorous standards for academic preparation, supervised training and meet strict guidelines for ethical practice and professional conduct to achieve accreditation. I educate my clients to make informed choices based on their values and ethics, including their understanding of human rights issues of the porn industry. This does not apply to porn stars turned ‘therapists’. Potential clients can guarantee a therapist is accredited by confirming their credentials before they decide to book a session.
Accredited therapists undertake psychoeducation around sexuality and relationships with their clients. This facilitates clients to express their sexuality in a joyful and creative manner reflecting their cultural and physical realities, where porn use has little attraction for them. One of the issues I have with porn is that it is boring; predictable and disrespectful. Ethical sex therapists enable sexual expressions that are the antithesis of porn – never boring; never predictable and always respectful. This is what the best of us do!
Accredited sexual therapists treat both men and women who are addicted to porn but we never allow them to use their addiction as an excuse to harm others.
As a feminist and activist, I do not believe that all men are predators and all women are victims. There are a growing percentage of men who now suffer ‘small penis syndrome’ as an outcome of pornography. It is not unusual for teenage boys to tell me that a girl refuses to have sex with them “with that penis” because their favourite porn stud has a much bigger penis. Porn has educated men that they are a life support system for a penis, that there is only one size, EXTRA LARGE and it should be hard for up to two hours and be able penetrate every orifice on both humans and animals.

I am very glad that Sarah Calleja has never recommended porn to her clients and I would encourage her and other therapists critical of pornography to speak out about this, both publicly and within their professional associations.
Sadly, particularly in the US, AASECT-certified and well-respected therapists are on record promoting and endorsing pornography, even recommending it to clients as a way of treating sexual dysfunction.
See for example this peer-reviewed journal article from two Manhattan therapists (who are still practicing): Striar S, Bartlik B. (1999) Stimulation of the libido: the use of erotica in sex therapy. Psychiatric Annals. v29(1):60-64.
The authors extol the virtues of pornography and even state that is can be useful when wanting to "introduce a partner to a new mode of sexual experience that he or she may find distasteful or unacceptable."
In addition, just last year, Joe Kort (an AASECT-certified therapist) wrote in the Journal of Se |

In addition, just last year, Joe Kort (an AASECT-certified therapist) wrote in the Journal of Sex and Martial Therapy that "porn contributes to the positive sexuality of both men and women".
This is certainly a trend within sex therapy that needs to be confronted. |

| Sarah Calleja's declaration that she does not believe that 'all men are predators and all women are victims' appears to respond to the anti-feminist idea that critiques of abusive male sexual behaviour are inevitably blanketed and unspecific. At no point in Big Porn Inc does any author make any claim as to the universal victimhood of women, or criminality of men. They do name men as making up the majority of prostitution and pornography perpetrators, though, and women and girls as its victims. None appear to agree with Calleja that girls might be perpetrators through refusing boys sex on the basis of their (edited) size. Being refused sex is not a form of victimisation. |

| Grateful to DR UDI for all his help for my life, my partner was having Herpes Simplex Virus, and we were planing on getting married, when we decided to get ourselves tested first and we found out that my Girlfriend was HSV 2 Positive, my Girlfriend was so unhappy, because this was a barrier for us to get married, so i went out to search out a remedy for my partner, and it was so surprising how DR UDI has been a blessing and healing to the masses, after reading about his work on a blog i immediately emailed him: [Drudiherbalhome@gmail .com] and he wrote back to me that my Girlfriend will be OK and that we will get married the same year also, i couldn't believe it, after doing all that is needed to be done, i was surprise that after 2 weeks of using his medicine my Girlfriend went to the doc and was diagnose negative. For more info contact his email (drudiherbalhome@gmail .com) or call or what-app him via +2348051243538 and you will get your illness cure. |

Hello everyone am JOHN PAUL from U.S.A, This is a testimony i want to make. I was HERPES positive for 8 years taking all sort of prescribed drugs from different Hospital and including my own doctor.
As i was reading online some 5 months ago i saw a testimony on cure of HERPES. At first i was really scared to give it a try. But Now as am telling you am very negative tested 4 times after applying the herbs as instructed by Dr Anonre. The cure is a pure herbs from Africa shipped to me through Delivery Service. My cure took about 4 days before getting to me. Dear brothers and sisters i shared this testimony to the public not to be happy alone because i know many people are out there that are in this situation i just over come but still believe there is no cure, please the cure is out and it works for me. If you are interested,email the researcher Dr AKIOYA using drakioya17spellhome@gmail.com, I will encourage every person who come across this mail to cure yourself if you are positive. |
