ASACP Honors Fleshlight, Fleshbot, GFY as Featured Sponsors for October 2025

LOS ANGELES (Oct. 1, 2025) — The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) is pleased to honor industry leaders Fleshlight, Fleshbot, and GFY as its Featured Sponsors for October 2025. For over 29 years, ASACP, a member- and sponsor-supported nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting online child safety, has proactively protected children from online harm by fostering corporate and parental responsibility. It receives financial and material support from a family of leading digital media companies and support services, as well as organizations, caring individuals, and other stakeholders, including its monthly honor roll of featured sponsors. ASACP’s featured sponsors are highly respected industry leaders recognized for their significant contributions to corporate responsibility, ethical business practices, and the implementation of procedural and technical measures to ensure child safety. These measures aim to protect minors and other vulnerable users from accidental exposure to age-restricted materials online, ensuring the safety and innocence of children as they go about their daily digital lives. ASACP’s Executive Director, Tim Henning, thanks Fleshlight, Fleshbot, and GFY for their ongoing support and sincerely appreciates the association’s dedicated sponsors for their vital role in building a safer future through their online child protection initiatives. “Our sponsors’ dedication to age assurance helps protect the innocence of youth,” he said. “The free tools, education, and outreach ASACP provides wouldn’t be possible without their generous support. Together, we’re making a real difference!” These tools encompass free child protection resources for parents, Best Practices tailored to specific adult market segments, and a comprehensive Code of Ethics for all website and mobile app publishers. Such vital resources help empower companies of all sizes to prevent minors from accessing age-restricted content. Among ASACP’s most notable achievements are its RTA (Restricted To Adults) meta-labeling system, which prevents children from accessing adult-oriented web pages and apps, and its CSAM Reporting Tipline, which has received and processed 1.6 million reports since its inception and remains a vital global resource. The association’s family of industry leaders, including October’s Featured Sponsors — Fleshlight, Fleshbot, and GFY — is crucial in making our tools and services accessible to the broader community. Fleshlight Since 2007, Fleshlight and its parent company, Interactive Life Forms, have been proud ASACP Corporate Sponsors and recognized leaders in the field of sexual wellness and satisfaction. Pioneering the development of advanced haptic devices, Fleshlight merges traditional pleasure products with cutting-edge technology. Fleshlight is honored to be recognized for its continuing commitment to child safety, exemplifying both innovation and responsibility in the industry. It also continues in its commitment to providing high-quality adult novelties to adults only while aspiring to broaden and improve the overall discourse on male sexuality. “In many ways, men have been left out of the modern sexual wellness movement, which openly celebrates female pleasure and female-oriented products in the mainstream, out in the open. However, male pleasure products are often subject to social stigma or ridicule, and male masturbation is still often seen as a shameful act instead of a healthy, natural human occurrence,” Fleshlight founder Steve Shubin explained. “I hope that through our continuing work, Fleshlight can help alleviate that situation while taking the discourse surrounding male sexuality towards a healthier, more positive direction for all adults.” Fleshbot An ASACP Corporate Sponsor since 2013, Fleshbot.com has been the web’s go-to source for news and reviews from the world of adult entertainment since 2003, covering the straight, gay, and trans markets to make the content-based blog a truly unique leader in its field. Over the years, it has become the go-to destination for discerning adult content enthusiasts and has been featured in publications such as Wired and The New Yorker. Most recently, Fleshbot has begun diving deep into the creator community with its offerings of Miss Fleshbot and Miss Fleshbot International, as well as Mr. Fleshbot and Mr. Fleshbot International. On the gay side, the Cybersocket Stud is a crowd-pleaser. “These new additions, and continued updates, all day every day, continue to set Fleshbot apart from any other adult entertainment portal,” said NSFW Director Eric. “We’re very excited to see how adult entertainment progresses, and stand ready to provide our users with the most and best coverage of the hottest trends in the adult entertainment community.” “We are happy to be a continued and featured partner of ASACP,” Eric added. “As always, we encourage those who are not yet members of ASACP to step up and give back by sponsoring the organization.” GFY / Internext An In-Kind Media Sponsor since 2021, GFY.com is known for its lively community and uncensored discussions. GFY features dedicated message boards for topics ranging from casual commentary to in-depth discussions on adult and mainstream business topics. In addition, educational forums and online marketplaces for content, jobs, services, traffic, and more, round out the GFY experience. GFY’s “Where the Industry Meets” tagline underscores its value as a veteran resource, Internext Expo event host, and adult digital media business touchpoint. Henning expressed gratitude to Fleshlight, Fleshbot, and GFY for their continued support, generosity, and leadership in helping the association achieve its goal of preventing children from accessing or participating in creating adult content. “The association’s sponsors play an active role in shaping the industry and are committed to safeguarding children’s online safety — a shared responsibility for all,” Henning concluded. “ASACP’s sponsors and members are essential in creating a safer environment for consenting adults, while also protecting society’s most vulnerable individuals from online harm.” To learn more about how your business can help protect itself by protecting children, email tim@asacp.org.

Pineapple Support Launches ADHD-Friendly Support Group

Pineapple Support, the adult industry’s leading mental health nonprofit, will host a free, online support group designed to help performers with ADHD transform their relationship with self-criticism. The six-week support group, “ADHD-Friendly: 30 Days to Befriend Your Inner Critic”, will be led by Pineapple Support therapist Dr. Jena Field, and will begin on Monday, October 6th, at 1pm EST. “Many of us see our inner critic as an enemy to be silenced, but that only reinforces shame and self-doubt,” says Pineapple Support therapist Dr. Jena Field. “This group will reframe the inner critic as a misunderstood ally. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), we’ll explore ways to challenge negative self-beliefs, build an inner support system, and access calm and strength when it’s needed most.” Pineapple Support was founded by British performer Leya Tanit in 2018, after a string of losses in the adult industry from depression and other mental illnesses. The organization, a qualified 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization in the United States, has connected over 16,000 adult performers to mental health services, including free and low-cost therapy, counseling, and emotional support. “Performers with ADHD face unique challenges, especially around self-criticism and managing emotions,” says Tanit. “This group offers a supportive, research-backed space to transform those challenges into opportunities for self-compassion and growth. I’m grateful to Dr. Field for providing this vital support to our community.” The six-week “ADHD-Friendly: 30 Days to Befriend Your Inner Critic” support group begins on Monday, October 6th, at 1pm EST (10am PST / 7pm CET). Sessions will last 90 minutes and take place online each Monday. For more information and to reserve a spot, visit pineapplesupport.org/support-groups.
