(CNSNews.com) - Teenwire.com, the Planned Parenthood Web site that says it was created “to provide medically accurate sexual health information for teens on the Internet,” is advising teens that viewing pornography is a normal and “safer” way of enjoying sex.
In a 2007 article, “Birth Control Choices for Teens,” the writer for the Planned Parenthood site tells readers about “Outercourse.”
Under the subtitle, “lower-risk forms of outercourse,” in addition to kissing, masturbation, erotic massage and body rubbing, or frottage, is “fantasy.”
“Many couples can read or watch sexy stories or pictures together,” the article states. “They can also share or act out sex fantasies. People do it in person, on the phone, surfing the Internet or through e-mail instant messaging.”
Another advice piece, “Porn vs. Reality,” warns that federal law makes it illegal for anyone under 18 to view pornography; “however, not everyone follows the rules, and you may run across some porn before you turn 18. There are a few things you should know about the images you might see. First of all, many people enjoy pornography alone or with a partner as part of sex play. People have different ideas of what is arousing, and there are many different kinds of porn that appeal to people’s different interests.”
On the Web site’s “Ask the Experts” page, young readers pose questions about pornography.
