“Silencing sexual science that refutes established notions of sexual disease and disorders has a long and sordid history. I find solace in reminding myself that the current story of sex and porn addiction advocates attempts to dismiss, disparage and silence sexual science is yet another incarnation of past attempts to lock up men’s penises to prevent masturbation, eradicate same sex attracted desires, and criminalize many forms of consensual erotic diversity.” -Doug Braun-Harvey
