In Australia and many countries, pornography offers omnipresent, stimulating, easily accessible sexual content; it is an increasing contributor to social meaning-making in women’s sexual lives, including their relationships. Previous research tended to focus on adverse outcomes without considering how women might experience pornography’s interaction with intimacy and relationships. We therefore sought women’s perspectives through in-depth interviews about pornography conducted with 27 young self-identified women, who have or intended to have sex with men, living in Australia. Analysis of their accounts revealed that young women are perplexed by the interaction of pornography with relationships and attempt to make sense of what it means through discourses of intimacy, fidelity, and sexual freedom. Seven associated (often contradictory) systems of statements contributing to these discourses were identified: Pornography mediates intimacy; Men are the gatekeepers of intimacy; For intimacy, women need to objectify themselves to compete with pornography; Religions equate pornography with infidelity; Using pornography is relaxation and therefore not infidelity; Men have an inherent right to sexual fulfilment; and Sexual freedom is paramount. Women’s accounts prioritised the needs of men, relationships, and the ideal of sexual freedom; no discourse prioritised women’s needs. These insights can be used to understand the complex association between women’s sexual relationships and pornography and as a contribution to appropriate clinical support when it is requested.

色情和性关系:年轻女性的话语挑战

在澳大利亚和许多国家,色情提供无处不在的、刺激的、易于访问的性内容;它对女性性生活(包括她们的关系)的社会意义的形成做出了越来越大的贡献。以前的研究倾向于关注不良后果,而没有考虑女性如何体验色情内容与亲密关系和人际关系的互动。因此,我们通过对居住在澳大利亚的 27 名自称与男性发生性关系或打算与男性发生性关系的年轻女性进行有关色情的深入访谈来寻求女性的观点。对她们的描述的分析表明,年轻女性对色情与人际关系的相互作用感到困惑,并试图通过亲密、忠诚和性自由的话语来理解它的含义。确定了促成这些话语的七种相关(通常相互矛盾)的陈述系统: 色情调节亲密关系;男人是亲密关系的守门人;为了亲密,女性需要将自己客观化以与色情内容竞争;宗教将色情等同于不忠;使用色情内容是放松,因此不是不忠;男人有获得性满足的固有权利;性自由至上。女性的账户优先考虑男性的需求、人际关系和性自由的理想;没有任何话语优先考虑妇女的需要。这些见解可用于了解女性性关系与色情内容之间的复杂关联,并在需要时为适当的临床支持做出贡献。色情可以调节亲密关系;男人是亲密关系的守门人;为了亲密,女性需要将自己客观化以与色情内容竞争;宗教将色情等同于不忠;使用色情内容是放松,因此不是不忠;男人有获得性满足的固有权利;性自由至上。女性的账户优先考虑男性的需求、人际关系和性自由的理想;没有任何话语优先考虑妇女的需要。这些见解可用于了解女性性关系与色情内容之间的复杂关联,并在需要时为适当的临床支持做出贡献。色情可以调节亲密关系;男人是亲密关系的守门人;为了亲密,女性需要将自己客观化以与色情内容竞争;宗教将色情等同于不忠;使用色情内容是放松,因此不是不忠;男人有获得性满足的固有权利;性自由是最重要的。女性的账户优先考虑男性的需求、人际关系和性自由的理想;没有任何话语优先考虑妇女的需要。这些见解可用于了解女性性关系与色情内容之间的复杂关联,并在需要时为适当的临床支持做出贡献。使用色情内容是放松,因此不是不忠;男人有获得性满足的固有权利;性自由至上。女性的账户优先考虑男性的需求、人际关系和性自由的理想;没有任何话语优先考虑妇女的需要。这些见解可用于了解女性性关系与色情内容之间的复杂关联,并在需要时为适当的临床支持做出贡献。使用色情内容是放松,因此不是不忠;男人有获得性满足的固有权利;性自由至上。女性的账户优先考虑男性的需求、人际关系和性自由的理想;没有任何话语优先考虑妇女的需要。这些见解可用于了解女性性关系与色情内容之间的复杂关联,并在需要时为适当的临床支持做出贡献。
