Individual differences in women's pornography use, perceptions of pornography, and unprotected sex: Preliminary results from South Korea

Effects of Pornography Use and Demographic Parameters on Sexual Response during Masturbation and Partnered Sex in Women

“…Third, content analyses of pornographic materials have been conducted to examine the extent to which exposure to beneficial/educational (e.g., providing clitoral stimulation during partnered sex), risky (e.g., condom-less sexual activity), or demeaning (e.g., lack of verbal consent during intercourse, sexual aggression, etc.) sexual scripts might increase the preponderance or social acceptability of such behaviors [24,26,27,58,59]. Despite the insights gained from these approaches, few studies have analyzed putative direct effects of pornography use on the sexual response cycle, including arousal and orgasmic parameters, comparing masturbatory and partnered sexual activities.…”

“…For example, thematic content analysis of 50 commercially popular pornography films revealed that some films did not depict explicit verbal indicators of consent to sexual activity, and nonverbal indicators were not consistently salient [26]. In a similar vein, a survey of 140 heterosexual women in South Korea illustrated that the perception of pornography as a reliable source of sexual information was negatively correlated with the frequency of condom use during partnered sex [27], as was earlier initial exposure to pornography among Croatian young adults [28]. Recent reports have also supported a correlation between exposure to pornography depicting condom-less anal intercourse ("barebacking") and unprotected anal sex between men [29,30], thus increasing the risk of HIV and infection.…”

Aligning the “Manifesto for a European Research Network into Problematic Usage of the Internet” with the Diverse Needs of the Professional and Consumer Communities Affected by Problematic Usage of Pornography

“…To what extent is sex toy used [58] a component of women's PUP? Some research has suggested that pornography usage by women has influenced their behaviour in couple relationships [59,60]. Are there differences according to ages and points in the lifecycle?…”

A longitudinal investigation of television viewing in adolescence and sexual perfectionism and satisfaction in adulthood

“…These null results are in contrast with studies of adults' sexually explicit media use, which have found that associations between more frequent viewing and sexual outcomes are contingent upon the degree to which sexual media are perceived as an important source of sexual information (Wright, Sun, & Miezan, 2019;Wright et al, 2018). Beyond genre differences in the two sets of studies (i.e., mainstream media vs. sexually explicit media), a potential explanatory factor could be the approach to measurement.…”
