Somen women enjoy &#8220;violent porn&#8221;<\/p><\/div>\n<p>It&#8217;s a common assumption that porn commonly depicts violence, that men like this kind of &#8220;violent&#8221; porn and that women don&#8217;t like it. Now there&#8217;s some new research that suggests otherwise. Apparently, some women are really into &#8220;violent porn&#8221;, even more than men.<\/p>\n<p>But hold up. Before I talk about that, I want to draw attention to the whole concept of &#8220;violent porn&#8221;. Unfortunately, there have been swathes of studies into violence in pornography but their results are often warped by the broad definitions, gender assumptions and &#8220;morality&#8221; of those who did the research. Far too many studies have defined consensual spanking, hair pulling, tickling and other kinky \/ BDSM behaviours as &#8220;violent&#8221;. Subsequently, you get anti-porn feminists rabidly claiming that 90% of porn is violent and that it has become more prevalent over the last few years. It&#8217;s not true.<\/p>\n<p>Professor Alan McKee recently <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/fun_sex_ed\/status\/1546623555265130496\">tweeted<\/a> the findings of his book <a href=\"https:\/\/www.routledge.com\/What-Do-We-Know-About-the-Effects-of-Pornography-After-Fifty-Years-of-Academic\/McKee-Litsou-Byron-Ingham\/p\/book\/9781032140315\">What Do We Know About The Effects Of Pornography After Fifty Years Of Academic Research<\/a>? and the results can be summarized as: not as much as we should by now. His first point is about the conflation of consensual BDSM and kink with &#8220;violence&#8221; in too many studies, muddying the waters.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mcgill.ca\/sociology\/contact-us\/faculty\/shor\">Professor Eran Shor<\/a> of McGill University did a <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/29669431\/\">study in 2019<\/a> that found that porn wasn&#8217;t getting &#8220;harder&#8221; or more violent over time and that viewers didn&#8217;t prefer that content.<\/p>\n<p>Now Professor Shor has released a new study which again refutes assumptions about &#8220;violent porn&#8221; and who watches it. <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/34750772\/\">Who Seeks Aggression in Pornography? Findings from Interviews with Viewers<\/a> was published in the Archives of Sexual Behaviour Journal in February. Unfortunately it&#8217;s paywalled and Sci Hub doesn&#8217;t have a copy so I&#8217;ve relied on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/za\/blog\/talking-apes\/202207\/who-likes-violent-porn-new-research-upends-expectations\">this Psychology Today article<\/a> for the gist.<\/p>\n<p>Shor interviewed 122 regular porn viewers, 61 women, 60 men and one gender diverse person. He asked their views on what he called &#8220;aggressive pornography&#8221; particularly porn that showed aggression toward women. The results:<\/p>\n<p>* Most men and women interviewed weren&#8217;t into aggressive porn generally.<\/p>\n<p>* Of those who were, more women than men liked it.<\/p>\n<p>* Those women only liked it if it was consensual, meaning they preferred any rough play to be accompanied by verbal or &#8220;facial&#8221; consent. As long as it was perceived as pleasurable to the woman in the porn, they were OK with it.<\/p>\n<p>* Those women&#8217;s porn tastes reflected their pre-existing sexual tastes i.e. they were already interested in rough sex and sought out porn that embodied their kink.<\/p>\n<p>* Those women didn&#8217;t always seek out aggressive porn. It often depended on their mood at the time.<\/p>\n<p>* Many of the women who enjoyed aggressive porn felt guilty about it.<\/p>\n<p>* None of the women who liked aggressive porn wanted to be involved in non-consensual aggressive sex in real life.<\/p>\n<p>The study abstract and the Psychology Today article don&#8217;t mention the ages of those 122 people. I wonder if there is any difference between younger and older people when it comes to the enjoyment of aggressive porn.<\/p>\n<p>So to sum up, women have varied taste in porn, as has always been the case. Some women enjoy porn with a bit of rough sex in it. Others don&#8217;t. Porn tastes can very much depend on personality and kink, rather than gender.<\/p>\n<p>Related articles:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/msnaughty.com\/blog\/2011\/10\/19\/porn-research-younger-women-more-likely-to-use-porn\/\">Young Women More Likely To Use Porn<\/a><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to recent research, some women are really into &#8220;violent porn&#8221;, even more than men.
