Gracie Abrams has a message for the youth of the world: say NO to porn!
The rising star nepo baby (she’s J.J. Abrams’ daughter) spoke against the adult film industry in an interview with Evie Magazine published on Tuesday and made a very valid argument while doing so! The That’s So True singer explained:
“Porn is bulls**t. It is dangerous, not real, and a performance. It’s really dangerous for young people for that to be their introduction to sex.”
We certainly aren’t going to rally against all porn like some Moral Majority jerks here. But she does bring up an important point about how young people learn about sex. The behavior in a LOT of porn — though understood to be exaggerated or even INSANE to adults — can be damaging to impressionable minds. Herself included!

As for her own early experience with porn, she recalled:
“I remember growing up reading Cosmo and it being like ‘six tips to give the most rocking blow job ever,’ and you’re like, ‘Holy f**k.’ I had a lot of questions. I took to the internet for answers, which is frightening to think about now.”
There’s certainly a larger point about where kids are learning about stuff. The internet is the wild west! A big reason we should all support proper sex ed in schools.
Fans mostly agreed with the 25-year-old… until she revealed where she thinks young people should get sex education:
“Young people need to learn about sex from a reputable resource like Cosmo or a strong mentor, not just scrolling aimlessly online like I did.”
Cosmo?? LOLz! We’re not too sure about that! See some of the best reactions on X (Twitter) below:
“a reputable resource like Cosmo…”
“I was with her until she name dropped cosmo like…”
“cosmo?????????????”
“Ironically cosmopolitan mentioning porn was how I was even introduced to it. It was an article on ways to spice up one’s sex life.”
“Cosmo for sex advice and education? Why not just ask the PE teacher or health teacher? Go to Planned Parenthood. That’s what my friends and I did. Planned Parenthood held sex ed for us in 7th grade so we understood WHY we bled once a month and how babies were made and birthed, covering vaginal deliveries ad cesarean sections.”
What are your thoughts, Perezcious readers?? Is porn the problem? Or lack of education? Let us know in the comments!
