KULTUROLOŠKI KONTEKST SPOLNE DETERMINIRANOSTI PRISTUPA PORNOGRAFIJI
SOCIOCULTURAL CONTEXT OF GENDER DETERMINATED APPROACH TO PORNOGRAPHY

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the survey was to examine gendered attitudes toward pornography, as well as justifications for its consumption. The questionnaire was administered to 123 female and male students at the University of Zagreb. The hypothesis stating gender-specific differences in perception and consumption of pornography was confirmed on three levels: the behavioral level, the level of attractiveness of pornography, and the level of attitudes. The results indicate that students (of both sexes) perceive pornography as primarily concentrated on the male audience. The hypothesis stating that different social conceptualization of male and female sexuality is related to the level of pornography consumption was also tested and confirmed. In conclusion, a brief discussion on (post)modern changes in gender-specific perception of pornography is offered.
