Pornography means those pictorial and textual products that explicitly show naked bodies, sexual activities or communication that talks about it or leads to it, with the aim of causing sexual excitement in the viewer.
There are many reasons for using pornographic content: discharging sexual energy, curiosity, acquiring information, refreshing sexual life and the like. The motives for using it are not bad, but is the frequent use of pornography the same?
What was once considered erotic content and “soft” pornography, today seems to be in the domain of popular culture.

Modern pornography is usually very rough and violent. Many believe that pornographic content encourages a man to behave aggressively. Reviewing the results of dozens of studies, it turns out that this is not a necessary consequence. Nevertheless, men who are basically aggressive can be provoked by pornographic content to greater tolerance of aggression towards women.

Also, the age of exposure to pornographic content is important: if boys are in early puberty, they are at a greater risk of exhibiting sexual aggression.
The current pornographic scene degrades one participant (more often a woman, but also a man), distorts the attitude about normal / average sexual behavior, devalues intimacy. Sociologist and feminist theoretician Gail Dines, PhD, believes that this is how a generation of young people is born with the inability to be excited by typical things, but instead desire extreme content. She also believes that popular pornography lacks narrative and creativity, and this is exactly why women are on average less excited by pornographic material than men.

Facts about pornography that contribute to the creation and maintenance of various sexual myths and prejudices
- Physical and verbal aggression present in about 90% of porn films.
- Most porn films last from 20-60 minutes. As many as 95% of male actors take drugs that maintain potency and delay ejaculation before filming. What lasts 60 minutes in the film is actually filmed with many breaks, sometimes the whole day.
- In porn films, over 90% of female ejaculation is pure acting. Actresses who ejaculate usually urinate or even fill the vagina with water.
- „It’s completely normal to perform vaginal corrections to make everything look symmetrical, as well as whitening the skin around the anus” – a quote from a porn actress.
The positive effects of pornography concern inspiration and sexual motivation. Sexually explicit material can be useful in exploring sexual activities with less prejudice and more freedom. It can also be useful for overcoming habits in longer love relationships.
It is not always possible to fulfill some sexual fantasies in reality, but it is possible through pornographic material. Many psychologists and sexologists believe that interest in erotic material is actually part of maintaining sexual desire. It stimulates imagination and creates a mood for sexual activity.

Both sex and the use of pornography – cause the secretion of dopamine, the neurotransmitter responsible for the feeling of pleasure. However, by watching pornography too often, the brain becomes “immune” to the effects of dopamine. The more you consume pornography, the more you need it.
The negative impacts of frequently used pornographic materials are numerous. In men, the negative effects are reduced to insecurity regarding the size of the penis, potency, performance of sexual activities, meeting the partner’s expectations… it is often the cause/trigger for some sexual dysfunctions, such as impotence (achieving and/or maintaining an erection) or premature ejaculation.

The standards that a man as an actor in the porn industry must fulfill are to be as rough as possible, as “gifted” and as muscular as possible. For a female actress, in addition to big lips, breasts and a tight butt, her submissiveness is taken as an extreme quality – we are talking about stereotypical porn movies, but of course the opposite extreme is also possible – sexual dominance.

Recent American research says that the average length of the penis is 12.8 cm. I believe that it is useful to say here that the penises shown in porn films are most often stimulated by drugs, or with plastic/rubber appendages.
Female orgasm mostly depends on the stimulation of the clitoris, only the first third of the vagina is sensitive to stimulation, so it is useful to know that poses and movements are more important than the length of the genital organ. Of the women who can experience orgasm, we do not currently take into account women with anorgasmia, only a third achieve it regularly through sexual intercourse. A third can experience it, but with additional stimulation. And the last third never experience orgasm through intercourse, but through manual or oral stimulation.
