Episode 1: Pornography, Fear, and the Beginning of HealingSeason 1 — Pornography in Context
What happens when everything you were taught about pornography creates fear, anxiety, and shame—and how do you begin to heal?
In this raw and revealing first episode of Complex Sex, Dr. Mallorie Sorce shares the personal story that shaped her clinical work, her marriage, and her doctoral research on sex and pornography. Raised in a home where porn was seen as dangerous and destructive, Mallorie carried those beliefs into adulthood—only to face betrayal, confusion, and emotional turmoil in her early relationships.
This episode dives into the heart of that journey and lays the foundation for an honest, research-based season exploring the truth about pornography, desire, and modern intimacy.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How childhood messages about sex and porn shape adult relationships
- Why “porn fear” and secrecy are so common—and how they impact intimacy
- What really happened when Mallorie discovered her partner’s hidden porn use
- How they rebuilt trust, communication, and sexual connection
- Why “sex addiction” is controversial—and how Out-of-Control Sexual Behavior (OCSB) offers a more compassionate, sex-positive alternative
- How shame, trauma, and attachment can influence sexual behavior
- Why understanding porn contextually matters more than judging it morally
This episode is perfect for listeners who:
- Struggle with porn use in their relationship
- Carry shame, fear, or religious conditioning around sexuality
- Want a modern, research-informed perspective on porn
- Are healing from betrayal or secrecy
- Want to explore sexuality without stigma or judgment
Mallorie also offers three powerful reflection questions to help you understand your own relationship with pornography:
- What messages did you receive about porn growing up?
- Have you ever felt shame or secrecy around porn?
- What would a healthy relationship with porn look like for you?
If you’re ready to replace fear with curiosity and shame with understanding, this episode is your starting point.
Welcome to Complex Sex—where we explore the truth about pornography, relationships, intimacy, and the stories we carry.
