It is all so sexualized.
I wish my parents were more concerned about me. They never warned about this or much of anything, honestly. Can't recall the last heartfelt and informative talk we've had. And my Christian private school never talked of such things.
My first knowledge of sexuality came from tv. I watched hundreds of hours of it unattended, alone, starting at 8 year old.
Of all things I could do if I had one do-over would be to have never watched porn for the first time. It killed me (figuratively). Now I understand what Scripture means by "the wages of sin is death." It doesn't have to stop my heart from beating, but the torment of my sinful past is like a looming death over me.
Now at 22, I have to watch CDC videos about sexual diseases and safe sex which are made for teenagers. I got tested recently. The results came back negative, but the health department was shocked by my lack of knowledge. (Shocking given the thousands of hours I waisted watching sexual content.)
I am really disappointed in myself.
