Dr. Kimberley Taylor's video: Cyber Sex in the Digital Age

TODAY WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE OBSESSIVE, ONLINE SEARCH FOR  SEXUAL PLEASURES AND ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIPS, WHETHER THROUGH CHAT ROOMS, DATING WEBSITES, OR HOOKUP APPS, TODAY PEOPLE ARE USING THEIR LAPTOPS, TABLETS, AND SMARTPHONES TO READILY ACCESS A VIRTUAL ENDLESS SUPPLY OF NEW FORMS OF SEXUAL EXPERIENCES. BUT ALONG WITH THIS COMES NEW CHALLENGES TO INTIMACY, SEXUALITY AND MAINTAINING LONG-TERM PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS.   THE REALITY IS THAT FINDING SEXUAL CONTENT ONLINE OR ENGAGING WITH CASUAL SEXUAL PARTNERS IS NOW READILY AVAILABLE FOR ANYONE WHO IS INTERESTED RIGHT AT A STROKE OF YOUR FINGERTIPS.    BUT THE FURTHER REALITY IS THAT INDIVIDUALS, COUPLES, FAMILIES, CAREERS CAN ALL BE DESTROYED BY ANY ADDICTION WHEN INDIVIDUALS GET LOST IN THE ENDLESS PLEASURE THAT THE DIGITAL WORLD CAN PROVIDE AND BEGIN TO LOSE CONTROL AND BECOME ADDICTED.  AND, JUST LIKE ALCOHOL, DRUG, OR GAMBLING ADDICTIONS, COMPULSIVE SEXUAL BEHAVIORS ARE JUST ANOTHER EMOTIONAL DISORDER THAT  NEEDS TO BE TREATED WITH CARE AND COMPASSION SO THAT IT CAN BE UNDERSTOOD AND HEALING CAN BEGIN.   TODAY MY GUEST IS ROBERT WEISS.  HE IS A LEADING EXPERT IN THE FIELD OF SEXUAL ADDICTION AND HIS NEW BOOK IS, ALWAYS TURNED ON: SEXUAL ADDICTION IN THE DIGITAL AGE.  IT IS PACKED WITH INSIGHTS AND SOLUTIONS ABOUT SEXUAL ADDICTION.  AS ROBERT WEISS HAS CLEARLY STATED IN THE OPENING OF HIS BOOK, WE ARE NOT HAVING THIS CONVERSATION TO DISCUSS THE MORAL, CULTURAL OR RELIGIOUS BELIEFS OF ANYONE ABOUT SEX, BUT RATHER TO SPEAK TO THOSE WHOSE USE OF PORN AND CASUAL HOOKUPS HAS ESCALATED TO THE POINT WHERE THESE ACTIVITIES HAVE BECOME A DRIVING FORCE IN THEIR LIVES AT THE EXPENSE OF THEIR OWN PERSONAL BELIEFS, MORALITY AND PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS.   WHEN MORE AND MORE PEOPLE ARE SEEKING SOOTHING AND EMOTIONAL SOLACE THROUGH THE USE OF CYBERSEX, WE ARE GOING TO EXPLAIN HOW SEX AND ROMANCE CAN BECOME ADDICTIVE, WHY IT IS ON THE INCREASE AND HOW TO GET BACK TO HEALTHY INTIMACY.    THANK YOU FOR JOINING ME TODAY, I HOPE YOU ENJOYED THIS PROGRAM AND THAT YOU WILL PICK UP ROBERT WEISS’S BOOK ALWAYS TURNED ON: SEX ADDICTION IN THE DIGITAL AGE AT ANY OF THE PLACES YOU PURCHASE YOUR BOOKS.
