Abstract

Highlights a few of the ways that the Internet is having an effect on sexuality. To simplify and elucidate the points, the Internet’s effect on sexuality is divided into the 3 broad categories: negative patterns, positive connections, and commercial aspects. In addition, 3 of the key factors that combine to give the Internet its power are delineated. They include Access, Affordability, and Anonymity or as they are called here the “Triple A.” Finally, suggestions for how the field should deal with this phenomena are offered.
