Warning: This episode contains references to sexual abuse.

Porn is one of the most controversial aspects of the 21st century and the internet.

Around 53% of teenagers have seen explicit material online - and nearly all of them by the age of 14.

BBC Three suggests that almost a quarter of people aged 18 - 25 who watch porn think they might be addicted.

The NSPCC has raised concerns that porn is 'desensitising' young people.

What impact is porn having on the way we see sex, relationships and gender? 1Xtra Talks explores.

Jackie Adedeji is a blogger and podcaster.

Nariece Jordan is an actress and model and took part in a BBC Three series called 'Porn Laid Bare'.

Anthony Brathwaite specialises in youth well-being and personal development. He is interested in educating young people about the ethics surrounding porn.

And we hear from 1Xtra's very own Jeremiah Asiamah on his brand new documentary exploring virginity.
