A TikTok influencer who teaches young people how to buy sex toys online and “unlearn purity culture” has been outed as a “sex educator” who works for a Planned Parenthood chapter in California.
Mariah Caudillo, who has over 418,000 followers on TikTok, works for Mar Monte Community Clinic in San Jose, a Planned Parenthood affiliate that offers sex education services to more than 220,000 people annually in California and Nevada, Fox News reported.
On her TikTok page @sexedfiles and other social media platforms, Caudillo advocates for “pleasure-based sex education” and argues that age need not be a determinative factor when it comes to deciding when to become sexually active.
In one video, Caudillo — who often takes sex-related questions from young people — is asked how old one must be to purchase a sex toy, which she calls a “spicy toy.”
….Last June, Caudillo appeared on the self-described “feminist podcast” Sex Ed with DB, in which she took questions and discussed “unlearning purity culture through sex education.”
During the podcast — which begins with promos for lubrication products and “incredible” sex toys — Caudillo described her childhood in terms of her family’s faith.
“I grew up very religious,” she told host Danielle Bezalel. “I grew up very conservative and in a Christian Evangelical home, so this really set the tone for the way that I understood myself, the way I understood the world, and it was very toxic….”
Full story on the Christian Post.
She experienced sexual abuse and violence in her formative years.
I am truly sorry for that. Trying to normalize it is not the answer.
I think PP should get her counseling.
This is another form of abuse.
Mental health professionals consider introducing children to sexuality too early to be at the root of many disorders.
I understand that this woman has unprocessed childhood trauma and this is a symptom.
She needs help.
Part of that help involves explaining to her that she can’t “process her trauma” by trying to sell kids on porn.
Not to overuse a buzzword, but isn’t what she’s doing a form of grooming?
It is probably not grooming because she is not manipulating them so that she can use them for sex.
But it is harmful and will probably make them more vulnerable to abuse and exploitation.
Such a sad story. Those who perpetrated “sexual abuse and violence in her ‘formative years'” were clearly not part of a purity culture. There is nothing pure or Christian about sexual abuse or violence. It seems blaming “purity” messages and Christians in general for abuse is becoming quite common. This is not, unfortunately, the first story like this. How does sexual sin protect from sexual abuse? It actually contributes to it. Sexual predators usually start with pornography and then move into even more destructive sins. In addition to a lack of understanding Christian morality, there is a lack of understanding the human person and a lack of logic here. May God heal and deliver all victims of abuse. And, may we, as a society, not further such abuse.
Someone here to pray very hard for. Jesus can touch and heal her in an instant. Or Christians can love her and melt the hard crust of sin surrounding her soul. Let it be so, dear Lord!
She will doing porn in a few years
Going to the TLM doesn’t make you better than anyone else. She might be entering the Kingdom of God before you, according to Jesus.
Not every story is about the TLM. This one is not. Why your obsession with it?
When your physician tells you test results, do you tell him or her about the TLM? When you get your car tuned up, do you tell your mechanic about the TLM? Maybe you should talk with a good Catholic therapist. There is more to life, even Catholic life, than the two forms of the Mass.
” She might be entering the Kingdom of God before you,” maybe so but unlike her I will NOT have to answer to Christ for going on podcasts and encouraging young people to commit sins that violate the 6 commandment, she will.
“Going to the TLM doesn’t make you better than anyone else” 9 times out of 10 it makes me better than most liberal Catholics…
bohemond, I really would just encourage you to detest your own sins and not think about whether you are better than an unfaithful Catholic but whether you are faithful in all things.
I not going to let attacks go unanswered….
It was an aggressive post from Yuno Watzcomin and it was provocative but it is good to remember Jesus in all things and why we are really doing what we are doing and hoping for Heaven for ourselves and everybody.
Bearing wrongs patiently is one of the Spiritual Works of Mercy and the Lord will repay it with mercy toward you.
I am not telling you what to do but there is very little support for virtue here.
