In Episode 38 we are joined by Dr. Taylor Kohut from the University of Western Ontario to discuss pornography, its consumption, and the consequences of pornography on relationships. Taylor shares with us how pornography makes us feel, think, and behave, and why it is important to understand the intersection between porn users and pornographic preferences. What is pornography? Does pornography consumption lead to sexual violence or other anti-social behaviours? How does consuming pornography effect your sexual satisfaction and how you perceive your partner?

Researching Pornography with Dr. Taylor Kohut

On this episode I speak with porn researcher Dr. Taylor Kohut about some of his studies concerning porn use and well-being, relationships, religious affiliation, and misogyny. Have you ever asked yourself: What actually constitutes porn? What does it mean to use porn? What impact might porn have on your well-being, your relationship, and how might it affect your views on women in particular? Dr. Taylor Kohut has asked himself these questions and an array of participants from North America to Croatia. We discuss Dr. Kohut’s (et al.) studies on pornography and help rethink some of the myths about porn use and its negative effects. His studies form part of a sex-positive move in porn research to indicate that we may be exaggerating or worse, poorly measuring pornography use and its effects on people.
