Abstract

This article discusses the question of pornography. The main intention is to examine gender differences in consumption and perception of pornography. In the first part we discuss the origins and social structuring of pornography. In the second part we present a study conducted on a student sample. We discuss gender differences in consumption, evaluation, and perceived social effects of pornography. Our main hypothesis emphasizing gender determined "reading" of pornography is confirmed.
