“The New Normal: The Threat of Sexual Predation in Dating Relationships”

2018 Coalition to End Sexual Exploitation Global Summit. Washington, DC.

Sexual abuse or harassment within the context of an intimate relationship is an age-old phenomenon. However, with the rise of technology and porn culture, younger generations are experiencing a wider range of sexually predatory behaviors than ever before. This presentation discussed the culture of sexting, revenge pornography, cyber-harassment and dating violence as well as the societal grooming and desensitization of both men and women regarding these dynamics.
