Abstract:
Janice Niemann, “Sex in the Summer-House: Setting in Victorian Pornography” (pp. 42–69) Despite scholarship on the history and publication of pornography, on laws surrounding Victorian pornography, and on pornography’s mutually informative relationship with nineteenth-century medical texts, actual Victorian pornographic texts remain relatively understudied. Taking up Lisa Sigel’s call to action that specific “motifs in nineteenth-century pornography deserve closer study,” and responding to previous scholars who have identified setting in Victorian pornography as largely inconsequential, I suggest that certain settings have significant literary impacts in Victorian pornography. Adopting the summer-house as a test case in three Victorian pornographic texts—The Romance of Lust (1873–76), Venus in India (1889), and Lovely Nights of Young Girls (c. 1895)—I investigate specific moments of sex in the summer-house, arguing that the liminality of summer-house settings facilitates character behavior and genre performance being pushed to their own liminal boundaries. Ultimately, I posit that the literary summer-house is a recognizable trope in Victorian pornography, and one that asks us to reexamine the impact of specific settings in the genre. Note: this paper discusses underage sex, incest, and rape.

Abstract:
In his groundbreaking study ofVictorian pornography,The Other Victorians, Steven Marcus draws on passages fromThe Romance of Lust(1873–76) to elucidate his now-famous term, “pornotopia.” To Marcus's mind, this text, like other pornographic novels, has few, if any, redeeming features. While the literary novel fleshes out the lives of its characters, pornography dwells endlessly on fleshly relations, he argues. Pornography, in fact, tends towards utopian fantasy, towards pornotopia. “More than most utopias,” says Marcus, “pornography takes the injunction of its etymology literally – it may be said largely to exist at no place, and to take place in nowhere” (268). In a pornotopia, time is always bedtime (269), life begins not at birth but at the moment of sexual awakening (270), and relations between characters are merely juxtapositions of bodies, body parts, and organs (274). Introducing an orgy scene fromThe Romance of Lust, Marcus asserts, “[t]his novel comes as close as anything I know to being a pure pornotopia in the sense that almost every human consideration apart from sexuality is excluded from it” (274). Pornography's lack, that is, its apparent disconnection from realistic settings and human relations, is a consequence and sign of human deprivation. “Pornotopia could in fact only have been imagined by persons who have suffered extreme deprivation,” he holds, “and I do not by this mean sexual deprivation in the genital sense alone. . . . The insatiability depicted in it seems to me to be literal insatiability, and the orgies endlessly represented are the visions of permanently hungry men” (273). Thus, “[i]nside of every pornographer there is an infant screaming for the breast from which he has been torn” (274).

Abstract:
Pornography is notoriously hard to define, yet like the Supreme Court all of us think we know it when we see it. Even if we cannot define pornography, we can say if something is or is not pornographic. How do we do this? More precisely, what is it that we think we know, when we think that something is or is not pornographic? We make these experiential determinations by reference to what I call our “traditional conception” of pornography. This conception is not based on definitions of pornography, for we have none. Rather, the traditional conception consists of broadly stated and widely believed inductive generalizations, which are in turn based on a multitude of common and shared experiences with pornographic materials. Recently—in the last ten years or so—that traditional conception of pornography has begun to change. But it is changing slowly. It still dominates our sense of what is and is not pornographic and our arguments about the value of pornography.

Abstract:
Media effects are one of the ten problems youths face today. Pornography is media content that causes a lot of negative effects on youth. Social media today exposes a lot of pornographic content that can be easily accessed by youth. At the same time, pornography among youth is a serious issue in Southeast Asian countries. Indonesia and Malaysia are countries in Southeast Asia with similar social and cultural backgrounds. The parents play an important role in preventing the impact of pornography among youth. Additionally, youth’s perceptions of pornography also play a role in shaping anti-pornography behaviours. This research aimed to analyse the influence of communication between parents and youth and youth’s perceptions of pornography on the formation of anti-pornography behaviour and attitudes. The population in this study were youth in 4 cities in Indonesia and Malaysia. This research used the cluster purposive sampling technique to determine samples from each cluster based on specific considerations (purposive), with an age range of 20-24 years. Based on the Slovin formula, the total sample obtained is 800 respondents. This study used path analysis as a data analysis technique. The results showed that communication between parents and youth did not have a direct and significant influence on the formation of anti-pornography behaviours. Meanwhile, youth’s perception of pornography has a direct and significant influence on developing anti-pornography behaviours. Most respondents thought that pornographic scenes on social media do not conform to religious values and that watching pornographic content on social media is addictive. Keywords: Pornography, anti-pornographic attitude, perception, youths, Indonesia and Malaysia.

Abstract:
Consumption of pornographic materials was examined in 3,638 secondary 2 students in Hong Kong. Results showed that over 80% of the respondents had never consumed pornographic materials in the past year. Internet pornography was the most common medium that adolescents used when viewing pornographic materials. Males reported a higher level of pornography consumption than did females. Participants who were born in mainland China were more likely to consume pornographic materials than their Hong Kong counterparts. Regardless of the types of pornographic materials, the levels of pornography consumption significantly increased over time. Results also showed that higher levels of positive youth development and better family functioning were concurrently related to a lower level of pornography consumption at secondary 2. The relative contribution of positive youth development and family factors to pornographic material consumption was also explored.

Abstract:
Pornographic images are disturbing and malicious contents that are easily available through Internet technology. It has a negative and lasting effect on children who use the Internet; thus, pornography has become a serious threat not only to Internet users but also to society at large. Therefore, developing efficient and reliable tools to automatically filter pornographic contents is imperative. However, the effective interception of pornography remains a challenging issue. In this paper, a four-phase anti-pornography system based on the neural and Bayesian methods of artificial intelligence is proposed. Primitive information on pornography is examined and then used to determine if a given image falls under the pornography category. First, we present a detailed description of preliminary study phase followed by the modeling phase for the proposed skin detector. An anti-pornography system is created in the development phase, which also includes the proposed pornography classifier based on skin detection. Finally, the performance assessment method for the proposed anti-pornography system is discussed in the evaluation phase.

Abstract:
Mainstream and pornographic images and practice norms are becoming increasingly blurred (Paasonen et al., 2007), while sexual entrepreneurship discourses ( Gill, 2009 ) promote ongoing sexual self-transformation. Women’s sexuality, specifically, is expected to be proficient and perpetually practising. We examine what the mainstreaming of pornography means for sexual desire and agency among 27 young women negotiating heterosex. Participants’ accounts of sexuality and pornography are reflected in a (dis)ordering porn interpretive repertoire. Porn is positioned alternately as: ridiculous and recapitulated performance; a (contested) arousal tool; pedagogy and pictogram; and (resisted) re-enactment pressure. Pornography’s regulatory effects are both rejected and recapitulated. Whether they use porn as a template for sexual possibilities or decry its codes as undesirable, porn acts as an unavoidable cultural reference point for considering sexuality for these young women. A sexual syntax that draws on pornographic images and tropes for sexual desire, pleasure and agency is described.

Abstract:
This essay employs pornography to explore the politics of race, gender, and sexuality at play in mimetic performances of Bill Cosby’s The Cosby Show. Focusing on Not the Cosbys XXX (2009), a pornographic parody of the sitcom, pornography is shown to be a venue that lays bare the politics of race, sexuality, and gender that energize cultural practices of mimesis. In mimicking The Cosby Show, Not the Cosbys XXX reveals the racial, sexual, and class politics of authenticity critical to mimesis as a salient technology for the (re)production of blackness in visual culture. Pornography’s spectacular multiplex mimetic performance, which the author terms pornmimicry, brings the quotidian dynamics of mimicry into focus as a primary mode of identificatory performance. More than a frame to elucidate racial sexual performance in pornography, pornmimicry helps us to understand the concomitant pleasure (and violence) bound with the broader cultural repetition of blackness as itself a mimetic practice.

Abstract:
Using four separate national probability metasamples of adults in the United States, two measures of pornography consumption, two measures of sexual attitudes, and two measures of sexual behavior, this article pits two macrotheories on pornography and its behavioral effects against each other in competing, falsifiable hypothesis tests. Specifically, the article compares the libertarian theory of pornography’s hypothesis that sexual attitudes are a confound of the pornography consumption—sexual behavior relationship, with the sexual scripting theory of pornography’s hypothesis that sexual attitudes are a mediator of the pornography consumption—sexual behavior relationship. No evidence was found to support the argument that pornography consumption—sexual behavior relationships are spurious and due to preexisting sexual attitudes. Alternatively, analyses uniformly supported the conceptualization of sexual attitudes as a mediating link between pornography consumption and sexual behavior.

Abstract:
Abstract Over the past several decades, porn studies has cohered as an interdisciplinary field built by scholars of feminism, race, media studies, history, literature, sociology, gender studies, and queer theory. The most compelling recent work in the field, like Heather Berg’s Porn Work (2021) and Steven Ruszczycky’s Vulgar Genres (2021), approaches pornography as a broad textual and cultural field rich with information about how we imagine, consume, and construct sex. They show that the category of pornography expands and deepens as texts are written, excerpted, and republished; as sex workers invent new outlets and conditions for their labor; and as new technologies increase access for user interaction. Such work shows us not simply how pornography indexes pleasure, but how it creates politics, community, and labor theory. Some scholarship, meanwhile, remains wearily sedimented in polarizing arguments for or against pornography’s value, like Bernadette Barton’s The Pornification of America (2021). Locked into an assumption that pornography is harmful and irredeemable, such work avoids engaging with pornographic texts themselves and ignores recent work in the very field to which it claims to make urgent contributions.[T]he best work [in porn studies] defines pornography not as identifiable texts, videos, or films, but as a field that connects sex to the myriad social relations that shape it: gender, labor, pop culture, and consumption.

Abstract:
Pornography, especially in its compulsive form of viewing, is closely linked to ways of managing and reducing stress. Pornographic realism, which is the contemporary form of pornographic representation, is based on technological innovations such as photographic and digital recording of sexual reality. The description of the character of the two forms of recording demonstrates the historical development of pornographic realism. Moving away from pure psychology, we can discern in the field of human sciences the specificity of the relations between pornography and stress reduction through the distinction between the Principle of Pleasure (Lustprinzip) and the Principle of Reality (Realitätsprinzip) at the collective level or otherwise in the space of the co-being (Mitsein). On the other hand, the distance of sexual need from hunger and the plasticity of the former makes pornography a practicable way of dealing with the contradictions of ordinary existence. In sum, the above articulation explains how pornography makes the world of sexual satisfaction go hand in hand with coping with and managing stress.

Abstract:
To examine violent pornography use and associated violence against women, an ethnically stratified sample of 198 abused women were asked about their partners’ use of pornographic materials, and if they had been asked or forced to look at, act out, or pose for pornographic scenes or pictures. Overall, 40.9% of the women reported the abuser used pornographic material, with the proportion significantly higher for Whites (58.7%), compared to Blacks (27.1 %) or Hispanics (38.5%). When groups were formed according to the abuser’s use of pornography and associated involvement of the woman, violence scores as measured on the Index of Spouse Abuse, Danger Assessment, and Severity of Violence Against Women scales were significantly higher (p = <.001) for women reporting the abuser requested or forced her to look at, act out, or pose for pornographic scenes. Severity of violence was not related simply to whether or not the abused used pornography. This analysis is a beginning step toward understanding how pornography influences woman abuse.

Emerging technology will provide benefits for users. Especially with the presence of the internet will make technology more perfect. On the one hand, technology and the internet provide benefits, on the other hand can also give a negative impact for users, one of which is the rise of pornographic content on the internet or often called cyberporn. With the internet, pornography can be obtained easily. That's because the producers of pornographic content think that the internet is the most optimal marketing medium. The presence of pornography has occurred pros and cons in various countries. In Indonesia, it is strictly prohibited because it can damage the morale of the next generation of the nation. In addition, pornography is something very addictive to humans that will eventually happen in various things. In fact, porn addiction is more severe addictive substance addiction than psychotropic. Some efforts that can be done to minimize the pornography deal either by the government of Indonesia, family, or other related parties are making laws that regulate pornography, blocking pornographic sites, providing early childhood sex education, and the role of parents in child supervision.

Abstract:
In the contemporary era, fatwas mostly contain derivative information from classical texts such as the Quran and Hadith. Fatwas are used to tackle pornography addiction while it may lack productivity in spreading innovative solutions among Muslim students. Failure to provide solid Islamic pornography rehabilitations and disfavouring to speak openly on pornography does not stop the prevalence of pornography among Muslim students. Therefore, the purpose is to explore the prevalence of pornography, its effect on Muslim students, and strategies to overcome pornography addiction. Through SPSS analysis, the numerical data shows that both Muslim male and female students view pornography regardless of its prohibitions. Some Muslim students are engaged in maladaptive behavior, affecting their spirituality, religion, and overall well-being (Ademola, 2017). The study, therefore, suggests alternative awareness programs to support Muslim students to overcome the struggles of pornographic addiction that is often too tempting to resist. Dealing with pornography per today's context perhaps will diminish the statistical rate of Muslim students watching pornography.

Old wars about pornography and censorship have new armies in radical feminists. So Ronald Dworkin once remarked, defending the new relevance of his now classic liberal defense of free speech in his essay, ‘Do We Have a Right to Pornography?’ Dworkin was right about the new battles, but wrong about his argument, which on the new battle ground not only failed to justify the permissive conclusion he desired, but helped to justify the prohibitive conclusion he despised. Pornography’s traditional foes said pornography is immoral. Feminists said pornography is ‘the graphic, sexually explicit subordination of women through pictures or words’. Feminists said that pornography harms women, subordinates women, and silences women. In this context, Dworkin’s old anti-moralist defense of pornography missed its mark.

Child pornography is almost universally condemned as a form of child sexual abuse and exploitation. Consequently, child pornography is prohibited in many countries. In response to the pervasiveness of child pornography, the United Nations and the Council of Europe have adopted international legal frameworks to criminalize the production, distribution, and possession of child pornographic materials. At present, both the Republic of Korea (South Korea) and Thailand have their own criminal laws against child pornography. The purpose of this article is to present a comparative analysis of the child pornography laws in these two Asian nations against the background of these international legal frameworks to evaluate the extent to which the Korean and Thai child pornography laws are in line with them.

Pornography is an explicit depiction of sexual intercourse. Unlike erotica, pornography does not strive for artistic expression, but in a faithful way seeks to portray sexual intercourse, with the aim of arousing sexual arousal. In most countries, adult films are considered offensive and as such are subject to censorship. Pornographic content in the form of pictures, stories and personal ads, appear on the market in special magazines, which therefore pay sales tax. There are many websites on the Internet with movie porn and related content, which is the most accessible form of pornography today. It has become customary to label pornographic content as “XXX”.

The pornographic industry, one of the most profitable of the planet, is responsable for reproducing and perpetuating gender violence. At the end of the 1970s, pornography began to be treated as a political problem by second-wave feminists, who denounced the harmful effects of pornography and believed that the prohibition of pornographic contente was a measure of gender equality. This article shares the propositions of anti-pornography feminists, so it will be demonstrated, through bibliographical researches, that the pornographers’ discourse should be trated as real hate speech Against women, so that the issue should be resolved in the light of the principle of equality, to the detrimento of freedom of speech.

The Law Number 19 of 2016 specifically regulates decency in the electronic field, amending the Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions. Komnas Perempuan reported an increase in gender-based violence on the internet, specifically revenge porn, with cases increasing from 126 in 2019 to 510 in 2020. Law enforcement efforts against perpetrators of revenge pornographic content on social media include preventive and repressive measures.

Abstract:
Pornography is a dangerous activity that often eat deep into individual when they are deeply involved. It leads to many challenges and can affect the productivity and lifestyle of individuals. This study explored pornography addiction among emerging adults, focusing on the roles of self-control, social isolation, and stress coping on it. Using a cross-sectional study design, a total of 300 participants, consisting of 200 males and 100 females, with an average age of 22.5, were part of the study. The hypothesis posited that self-control, social isolation, and stress coping would significantly predict pornography addiction. The findings revealed a negative correlation between self-control (r=-.41, p<.05), stress coping (r= -.10, p<.05), and pornographic addiction. The paper concluded there is a significant positive relationship between pornography and social isolation while self -control and stress copping negatively correlated with pornographic addiction. The study recommends implementing self-control and stress coping workshops, fostering social connections, and enhancing mental health support services to effectively address and prevent pornography addiction among university students.

Abstract:
In the 1970s onward, feminism uncovered pornography’s harms to women. They center on the inferior ways that pornography usually presents women, its effects on many consumers to thus see and treat women, as well as abuses that go into making some pornography. Yet as Catharine MacKinnon, Andrea Dworkin, and Rae Langton have variously observed, the more pervasive pornography becomes the harder it is to recognize its harms as harms. Insights from Heidegger’s analysis of modern technology can help explain this difficulty. He argues that today’s technology has a distinctive power imperceptibly to alter norms by driving out other ways of engaging and understanding the world besides how technology mediates that relationship. Pornography’s intersection with Internet-age technology likewise imperceptibly alters norms by driving out alternatives to some form of pornography’s picture of women and sexuality. Against this new backdrop, pornography’s harms become less discernable as such.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate the use of and attitudes among young people toward pornography and their sources of information about sexuality. Eight hundred and seventy-six young people ages 15–25 years (555 females and 321 males) who visited a youth center in Sweden for a period of 1 year answered a questionnaire about their use of pornography, their attitudes toward pornography, and sources of information about sexuality. Although most had seen pornographic movies, the youngest boys reported viewing the most pornography. The male participants reported that the most common reason they viewed pornography was to get aroused and to masturbate, whereas the female participants stated that they viewed pornography out of curiosity. The most frequent source of information about sexuality was peers. These results illustrate the importance of sex education to give factual information about sexuality and to counteract the messages about sexuality presented in pornography.

AbstractBackground and aimsThe use of pornography, while unproblematic for the majority, can grow into addiction-like behavior which in its extreme form is labeled as compulsive sexual behavioral disorder in the ICD-11 (WHO, 2018). The aim of this study was to investigate the addiction-specific reactivity to cues in order to better understand underlying mechanisms in the development of this disorder.MethodsWe have used an optimized Sexual Incentive Delay Task to study brain activity in reward associated brain areas during an anticipation phase (with cues predicting pornographic videos, control videos or no videos) and a corresponding delivery phase in healthy men. Correlations to indicators of problematic pornography use, the time spent on pornography use, and trait sexual motivation were analyzed.ResultsThe results of 74 men showed that reward-related brain areas (amygdala, dorsal cingulate cortex, orbitofrontal cortex, nucleus accumbens, thalamus, putamen, caudate nucleus, and insula) were significantly more activated by both the pornographic videos and the pornographic cues than by control videos and control cues, respectively. However, we found no relationship between these activations and indicators of problematic pornography use, time spent on pornography use, or with trait sexual motivation.Discussion and conclusionsThe activity in reward-related brain areas to both visual sexual stimuli as well as cues indicates that optimization of the Sexual Incentive Delay Task was successful. Presumably, associations between reward-related brain activity and indicators for problematic or pathological pornography use might only occur in samples with increased levels and not in a rather healthy sample used in the present study.

Abstract:
The dream of the good pornography today, draws its argument from a feminist anti-porn analysis that concludes that pornography is an expression of the patriarchal society where women are being obejctified and degraded. However, in the 1960s, there was another dream of the good pornography, one which claimed that the existing pornography was bad from an aesthetic point of view. It had to do with the fact that pornography was forbidden in Sweden until 1971, and one argument for legalization was that porn would then become much better. The article examines the dream of the good pornography, the relationship between art (cinema) and porn (film), and what happens to the issue of gender when the dividing line between the two categories is questioned. Historically, the relationship between art cinema and the pornographic film is complex and the two categories that at a first glance are so easy to distinguish, have lived in a mutual dependency of each other. Art films with sexually explicit material pushed the limits for censorship during the 1960s, but at the same time, the success of art films with sexually explicit material often relied on a censorship that allowed sex in art but not for pornographic purposes. The undefined border between art and pornography also bring to the fore a discussion of the gender ascribed to each category. Art, belonging to the realm of modernism and high culture, has, by some theorists, been regarded as masculine, whereas porn, belonging to what has sometimes been regarded as the feminine mass culture, is often discussed and analyzed as a male genre. At the same time, one point of departure for the dream of the good pornography in the 1960s as well as in the late 1990s and early 2000s, is woman, her sexuality and her consumption of pornography.

Abstract:
This paper is a case study of a self-described pornoholic, or an individual who consistently watches an excessive amount of pornographic content. Pornographic material is dangerous and unlawful because it is forbidden from both a moral and religious perspective. One of the most widely circulated types of sexual exploitation is pornography. Enforcement agencies and internet-preventing technologies do not appear to provide an all-encompassing fix with regard to pornographic problems, though. The objective of this study was to provide an overview of the perceptions, motivations, implications, and actions taken to fight and combat pornography. Throughout this study, there was only one participant, and Coliazzi's approach was used to analyze the data. These themes were indicated by the results: sexually preoccupied and normalcy for his perceptions; happiness, boredom, and habituation for his motivations; sexual imitation and sexual attraction for his implications; and self-control, guilt, and avoidance for his actions to fight pornography. Even though his daily existence continues to be intertwined with his dependency on pornography, and he finds it challenging to refrain from seeing it, he nonetheless requires our empathy and comprehension throughout this disorganized, tempting environment.

Exploiting a pornographic vocabulary, Araki’ s art solicits the spectator’s obscene part, inducing him intuitively to modify his thought system to admit that art and pornography can blend. The pornographic reality, subservient to a phenomenom of transfiguration, turns into a complex meta-pornography coming at a paroxysm of the artistic dimension.

Is pornography within the coverage of the First Amendment? A familiar argument claims that it is not. This argument reasons that (1) the free speech principle protects the communication of ideas, which appeal to the reason (the major premise); (2) pornography communicates no ideas and appeals to the passions rather than the reason (the minor premise); (3) therefore pornography is not protected by the free speech principle. This argument has been specified in different ways by different writers. The most prominent and careful of these are Frederick Schauer and John Finnis. Both founder on the attempt to distinguish pornography from art, which both would protect. If art, film, and literature should be protected, then this protection should extend to the pornographic subsets of these genres.

Abstract:
This article draws on 27 interviews with women (with exclusive and non-exclusive sexual orientations) to understand the role of pornography in the construction of female sexuality. Building upon research that moves beyond the ‘negative effects paradigm’ in the study of pornography, we show that consuming pornography is both disciplining and empowering for women. Our informants recognise that pornography reproduces and promotes patriarchal discourses of sexuality, but they manage to use it to reach a state of pleasure (exercise of fantasy, sexual gratification) and perfection (optimal way of performing sex). We also show pornography’s role in cultivating a renewed understanding of female sexuality. In this process, aspects of the genre are questioned, negotiated and reconciled in order to continue using pornography to satisfy desire. We contribute to ongoing debates about the role of pornography in society by documenting the experiences of women whose voices have been hitherto underrepresented in the literature.

Abstract According to recent studies, the growing consumption of Internet pornography mainly in male population becomes an increasing problem, which is closely linked to compulsive sexual behavior. Some findings also suggest that Internet pornography consumption might represent a defense mechanism against excessive stress, which enables to cope with stressful events, helps in mood regulation, and decreases depression and anxiety. Users of online pornography involved in these activities also reported that their self-exposition to pornographic material may create guilty feelings and internal conflict in themselves with respect to their own “involuntary” sexual behavior, which suggest that psychosocial stress and possibly traumatic experiences may play a significant role in Internet pornography addiction. Taken together, these findings show that stressful experiences, anxiety, and depression are strongly related to pornography consumption. In addition, conflicting emotional experiences as well as identity problems significantly increase vulnerability to addictive sexual behavior and pornography consumption.

C.M. Concepcion's review of “Pornography: An Uncivil Liberty?” (Carse 1995) fundamentally misconstrues the position defended in that article. This paper examines possible sources of this misconstrual, focusing critical attention on the narrowly crafted, morally loaded notion of “pornography” that figures centrally in the original argument under review. Pornography is not a category of speech that can be characterized as having one crucial meaning or message, nor is the message of pornography easily identifiable in instances of pornographic speech. This raises the problem of interpretive privilege, which haunts many of the antipornography arguments being offered in the contemporary debate, including the author's own earlier argument.

Youth in Australia are routinely exposed to sexually explicit images. Among 16- and 17-year-olds, three-quarters of boys and one-tenth of girls have ever watched an X-rated movie. Three-quarters of 16- and 17-year-olds have been exposed accidentally to pornographic websites, while 38 percent of boys and 2 percent of girls have deliberately accessed them. Internet pornography is a particularly pervasive source of minors’ exposure to pornography, both accidental and deliberate. Two features of children’s exposure to pornography mirror those among adults. First, males are more likely to seek out, and are more frequent consumers of, both X-rated movies and pornographic websites. Second, Internet users of any age find it difficult to avoid unwanted encounters with sexually explicit materials.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTDuring the second half of the nineteenth century, British social purity campaigners framed the pornography trade as a major source of cultural and moral pollution. As in their anti-prostitution efforts, purity campaigners presented the abolition of pornography as an attempt to protect women, children, and impressionable members of the lower classes from sexual immorality. Their rhetoric and policy efforts, however, reveal deeply entrenched fears of middle-class vulnerability to the negative effects of pornographic literature and images. Building on existing obscenity studies scholarship, this article explores the role of class and gender tension in nineteenth-century pornography regulation. In contrast to the majority of work on Victorian pornography, this article focuses on the British lower classes as producers and distributors rather than consumers of pornography. In addition, this article argues for a higher level of female participation in the pornography trade than has been previously recognized. By focusing on the contradictions and biases at the heart of campaigns against pornography, this article explores the ways in which regulation efforts and discourses of obscenity were shaped by the class and gender dynamics of the pornography trade.

Abstract:
Background: The use of erotic media is a controversial issue in the literature and for the general population. There seems to be no consensus on whether pornography use negatively impacts the sexual health. Aims: To raise the empirical and scientific bases of the impact of pornography consumption on human sexual function. Method: Systematic review of Pubmed, Scielo and BVS databases using the term 'pornography', restricted to clinical trials, case reports, incidence, prevalence, exploratory and risk factor studies. Excluded those who used pornography only as a tool to provoke sexual arousal in tests, those who did not describe the effects of using pornography itself, articles without available abstracts or not yet published and duplicated in the databases. Results: Of 24 resulting studies, only 15 crossed the two variables: 10 correlated pornography with better sexual function scores and 5 with worse. Conclusion: If pornography consumption has an impact on sexual function, it is positive, not negative. The pornographic market presents extremely serious problems, but the negative impact on people's sexual function is not one of them.

Abstract:
Background: There are mixed views on categorizing pornography as addiction or as a sexual compulsivity or a subset of hypersexual behavior. Due to rise in the Internet access and technologies, the possibilities of conduit for sexual interactions, online pornography, and other type of repetitive behaviors have increased. Aims: The current study aimed to find the prevalence of problematic pornography use and attitude toward pornography. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was carried out among 1,050 undergraduate medical students to assess the prevalence of pornography addiction and attitude toward pornography. A Google document containing structured questionnaire in 3 different parts: (a) demographic details of students, (b) Problematic Pornography Consumption Scale, and (c) attitudes toward pornography scale. This Google document was shared with all the undergraduate students through email address and WhatsApp group. Participants who did not respond to the questionnaire were sent 3 reminders at a gap of 3 days. The responses were recorded in Excel sheet and analyzed using Epi-Info software. Results: Prevalence of problematic pornography use among participants was 12.5%. There was statistically high prevalence of problematic pornography use among male participants ( P < .001), nearly daily consumption of pornography per week ( P < .001) and more than 20 min of consumption per day ( P <.001). A statistical significant negative correlation was shown (r = −0.483, P < .001) between age of first exposure to pornography and problematic pornography consumption score. Males, being in a relationship, and those with problematic pornography use had higher score on attitude toward pornography scale. Conclusion: It is important to provide education to students about the effects of problematic pornography use because there is negative correlation between exposure to pornographic imagery on the Internet and levels of genital and sexual esteem; pornography use was associated with poor quality of life, and depressive and anxiety symptoms. Gender-specific discussions so as to promote sexual health and participation in media literacy education would be beneficial for young people in changing attitude toward pornography.

Abstract:
In 2015 the offence of possessing extreme pornography (Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008, s 63) was extended to cover the possession of pornographic images of rape. Proponents of the legislation claim that rape pornography is ‘culturally harmful’, because it normalises and legitimates sexual violence. Critics have dismissed ‘cultural harm’ as poorly defined and lacking evidence. However, critical engagement with, and development of, this concept has been limited on both sides of the debate. This article fills that gap through a sustained theoretical exposition of the concept of cultural harm and detailed analysis of its role in justifying the criminalisation of rape pornography. It makes the case that at least some rape pornography is culturally harmful, but nevertheless concludes that criminalisation of the possession of rape pornography is not an appropriate response to that harm.

Abstract:
Unprecedented advances in Internet technologies with multimedia capabilities have enabled pornography and adult content to be widely and freely distributed as easy as a click of a mouse through various means such as YouTube, Facebook, and Tags. Protecting children from unnecessary exposure to adult content has, therefore, become a serious problem in the real world. In particular, the considerable perversion in pornography and the exposure of children and the society to such perversions leads to moral decay. Constructing an appropriate filter for pornographic images is a major concern in modern society; however, this area poses challenges. This study aims to shed light on a content-based technique that employs an anti-pornography machine and to encourage researchers to study this adult image filtering technique. In this study, we discuss models of skin detection and their advantages and disadvantages in real life. We also elaborate on the pornographic image classifier using a feature extraction process and its classification process, along with the possible difficulties it may present. This study also analyzes anti-pornography techniques based on skin detection and discusses their strengths and weaknesses.

The development of media with pornographic elements has increased the existence of pornographic crimes among the public. The definition of a pornographic crime is an immoral act related to sex in the form of a picture, sketch, photograph, writing, video or through other media shown in public which violates the norms of decency in society. This study aims to, firstly, analyze the suitability of the Bandung District Court's decision number 517/Pid.Sus/2018/Pn.Bdg regarding the crime of assisting in providing child pornography based on trial facts. Second, analyzing the imposition of weighting for criminal law subjects that are specific in nature. This research method uses normative juridical research methods with statutory and conceptual approaches. The conclusions obtained are, firstly the Judge in his ruling stated that the defendants were proven guilty of committing the crime of helping to provide child pornography which was not in accordance with the facts of the trial as seen from the testimony of witnesses and the testimony of the defendant and in that decision the victim was a child so the actions of the defendants were more in line with the crime allowing children to commit obscene acts, therefore the punishment is heavier than the Pornography Law. Second, the Pornography Law does not regulate the burden of criminal penalties for special criminal law subjects such as those closest to the victim. When compared with the Child Protection Act, this regulates criminal sanctions for legal subjects of special criminal offenses with an additional 1/3 (one third) of the threat of the article. So the punishment for those closest to the child is more severe than for other people who are not the closest person to the child victim.

Abstract:
Internet pornography use (IPU) refers to Internet-based sexually explicit materials that are ultimately used to elicit sexual feelings or thoughts. The accessibility of Internet pornography could lead to excessive exposure to pornographic messages, posing a risk to heavy users’ psychological health. This paper offers a preliminary understanding of the relationship between Internet pornography use and psychological distress among emerging adults and the moderating role of gender in the association. This cross-sectional study has taken a purposive sampling approach to recruit 144 emerging adult pornography users via the online survey method. The results indicated that males reported having more problematic Internet pornography use, and there were no gender differences in psychological distress. Meanwhile, gender is a significant moderator between Internet pornography use and psychological distress. The females were found to be more psychologically affected by their problematic Internet pornography use than the males. Overall, this study has provided a novel finding of the moderating role of gender in problematic Internet pornography use and psychological distress in the Malaysian context. This study also calls for a gender-focused sexual health programme for Malaysian emerging adults. Furthermore, the scores of problematic IPU in this study raise a concern over the effectiveness of current sex education in Malaysia. The scores may highlight the need to provide education targeting Internet pornography use.
