Pornoforbud acting more on emotion than on research

Vomiting, shock and convulsions.

It was what some Danish mom saw, as they on Tv2's request so the porn as research for their private pornoproduktion.

Therefore, took some of the women the initiative to create a borgerforslag, which should prevent children and young people's access to netporno.

the Proposal, called ‘There is a need for robust and sustainable legislation that can regulate and adgangsbegrænse onlineporno, with the aim to protect the children', have in four weeks had about 1100 signatures. 50.000 signatures will mean that the government examine the proposal.

According to the authors of the proposal are children and young people a few clicks away from malicious, violent and cross-border porn.

We asked the Danish sociologist and pornoforsker Sidsel Harder, whether there is evidence behind the many claims of pornoens harmful effects of the proposal. Harder has just released the studies here and here, which looks at Danish young adults ' use of internet porn and sexting.

- there Is now so much porn with violence, rape, abuse and sex with minors, as it is claimed?

- It is difficult to determine whether there has been more of the one or the other kind of porn in quantitative terms, but the vast majority of people do experiences with porn, including what they perceive as ’hard’ or ’extreme’ porn.

- Pornoen provides a strong emotional reaction, which relates to your particular preferences, but it is important to remember that porn depicts and stimulates sexual fantasies for every taste.

- To take distance from the others ' fantasies is to take distance from other people and other seksualiteter and to make themselves the judge of what others may imagine or think of doing.

- It is hard for me to see how the proposal here will protect children from porn without at the same time to deprive them of the opportunity to explore, for example, homosexuality, which is one of the environments who have used pornoen to promote sexual liberation, says Sidsel Harder.

According to the researcher, withdrawal of the proposal on the black-and-white statements about, to pornoen has become harder, affecting (men's) behaviour, that it can create dependency and destroy relationships.

- It is true that there are parts of the science underpinning it. There are also parts that show other and opposing tendencies, which is that porn can be fascinating, relaxing and everything in between.

- How has it really always been with pornoen. It shares the waters, and it is difficult to agree on the middle - also for researchers - because the studies are often built on morally charged terms.

- in Addition to the quantitative results, I think, to get much out of qualitative studies with people about their experiences with sexual images. For no matter how much there is of one or the other, it is a fact that YOU interpreted, and experienced something as cross-border.

Harder refers to a Finnish study, where the adults tell about childhood and the experiences of youth seem with porn, and here you see the participants do not themselves horrified and traumatized, but as active, exploratory.

- Therefore, ask the authors of the study: Why do we talk always about protecting the other - here the children - from the porn, rather than to reflect on how we ourselves have reacted?

- What you imagine, we as a society can do in relation to young people and porn? Ban, or communication?

- I think, quite clearly, that we have a responsibility to help our children navigate in their experiences with porn: They should - at their own pace - to go out and experience the buffet of sexual possibilities, as pornoen are, and learn to sort through the various feelings, pornoen evokes. Is it important that adults stresses consent, as well as the difference between fantasy and reality.

- Finally, I think, as a society, we must take good care of the Danish approach, which was the first in the world made up with the ban on porn. We do this among other things by taking it up for debate, so I am pleased that the proposal makes.

Denmark is a porn pioneer, believe Harder, but still must be controlled in a digital age, where young people have easier access to porn and to explore other sexual possibilities, for example by creating and sharing their own intimate images.

- We need to be aware that the communities, which previously traded girlie or so VHS’are at home in the room, today can be digital. It provides both more control to the individual - which perhaps before were forced to watch the same porn as its big brother - and more opportunities to find like-minded people.

- But it also creates a risk that there occurs ekkokamre, who plays on the sabbath and fear. Also in the sexual area, the internet is a social space, and it provides some new challenges, which we as adults are still fairly poor to advise children and young people, says the sociologist Sidsel Harder.

In borgerslaget, which should prevent children and young people's access to porn, says, among other things:

‘Children and young people who, in their curiosity, go check on these pages are in great risk, without intending it, to be presented for sex with minors, violence, rape and other brutal atrocities.

in addition, It is now documented and scientifically recognised that the use of porn can create an addiction and other compulsive sexual behavioral disorder.

This means that children who are exposed to porn at a young age, are in direct risk of developing compulsive and addictive behavior through onlineporno.’

in Addition, argue the authors, that pornobrug is associated with violence and rape of women, just like porn supposedly also can harm mental health and destroy relationships and lives.
