"He chose porn over me. Porn killed my marriage. It killed my trust. It destroyed my sense of self and understanding of true intimacy" --Courtney

Shattering the popular myth that porn is harmless, the personal accounts of 25 brave women in "He Chose Porn over Me" reveal the real-life trauma experienced by women at the hands of their porn-consuming partners--men who were supposed to care for them. This confronting but necessary book dares to tell the truth about pornography's destructive impact--about the men who habitually use it and the women and children who are mistreated and discarded as a result. The women in this book were collateral damage in their partner's insatiable greed for porn. Their stories tell of the crushing of intimacy, respect, connection, love. Porn colonised their families, leaving women rejected and scarred. They were subjected to sexual terrorism in their own homes. The men, turbo-charged by pornography, were intoxicated by sexualised power. They didn't care if they lost everything including their partners. In this haunting exposé, pornography is rightfully situated as an insidious tool of violence against women.
