What do you mean by exposure?

Showing a child porn or having sex while they are around. Those have the most definite negative effects. Stuff that borders that is trickier but, IMO, best avoided.

Does walking in accidentally count, or is there a minimum time limit?

I ask because some people act like a child accidentally walking in on their parents once ruins them for life.

I'm less sure on if anyone has studied that (for obvious reasons). It would be more of "We are having sex and don't care if the child can see" sort of thing. The normalizing and exposure of sexual acts with kids is what's known as "grooming" and it's what child sexual predators use to coerce kids.

Do you think drag queen storytime counts as porn that children shouldn't be exposed to?

[–] cogman@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

No.

A trans woman wearing a dress is not porn.

[–] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Okay, because "we shouldn't give children access to porn" is the exact argument they use against LGBT folks.

I know, that's not lost on me. And you are right to ask the question.
