Summary: | Abstinent Christian men are frequently challenged when selecting and navigating media due to the presence of sexual content that presents images and ideas not aligned with their sexual self-concept.

Participants' media selection and navigation were influenced by faith, and participants often attempted to control or avoid situations where sexual media content were present. |
