ABSTRACT

The current study qualitatively explores the pornography viewing preferences of a non-university-based male sample from the United States. Cisgender heterosexual men (N = 34) completed an online structured interview about their viewing preferences of pornographic material. Responses were grouped into two main categories, motivations to view pornography and viewing preferences. Unlike some previous pornography studies, a wide range of preferences for sexual activity was shared by the participants. The current study replicates findings from previous research and adds to the literature on male viewing preferences of pornography by highlighting several unique themes that emerged from the sample, including the reticence of heterosexual men to disclose having preferences for male actor characteristics and men viewing pornography to alter their current mental states.

摘要

目前的研究定性地探讨了来自美国的非大学男性样本的色情观看偏好。顺性别异性恋男性（N= 34) 完成了关于他们对色情材料的观看偏好的在线结构化访谈。回应分为两大类，观看色情内容的动机和观看偏好。与之前的一些色情研究不同，参与者对性活动有广泛的偏好。目前的研究复制了先前研究的结果，并通过突出样本中出现的几个独特主题，增加了关于男性观看色情内容偏好的文献，包括异性恋男性不愿透露对男性演员特征的偏好以及男性观看色情内容以改变他们目前的精神状态。
