Question Hello Carl,
My girlfriend is involved in pornographic movies and She actually does not see anything wrong with it.How can i make her realize the dangers of pornography so that could overcome this challenge.I love her and so i(we) need help.
Answer Hi Frank-
Pornography is a serious problem that can become addictive, and it sounds like your girlfriend may be addicted.
Ask her why she watches - if it is for sexual fulfillment, tell her that real sex is so much better, and that if she continues to watch pornography, she may not be able to have a normal sexual life later.
I'm not an expert, but I know that God wants some things to be intimate and pure, like the marriage bed. Pornography goes way beyond that. May I suggest that you visit this website:
This site has a wealth of information about pornography and ways to break the bad habits. They can give you much more information than I can. I've actually met the owners/founders of the site and they are dedicated, passionate men for Jesus, just trying to help others break this habit. They even go to pornographic trade shows to talk with and minister those involved in the industry.
I hope this helps. Please let me know how you handle the situation.
