Abstract

This exploratory study investigates the potential gender differences in research priorities, driven by factors such as established sexual stigma and traditional gender norms surrounding pornography. Using temporal and thematic analyses, we identify and examine research topics of 6,145 pornography studies published between 2001 and 2024. Our findings suggest that the lead author's gender may influence topic selection, with women exploring topics that have historically been underrepresented or overlooked. Furthermore, female-led publications have engaged with internet and web-related research earlier and more prominently. Additionally, our analyses outline the evolution of male- and female-led publication patterns in the field, highlighting a trend toward more balanced representation. This study aims to serve as a foundational basis for future research, encouraging more thorough investigations into gender disparities and their underlying causes within this domain. We also highlight the importance of longitudinal research to uncover potential gender disparities over time.
二十年来色情研究主题的性别差异。
这项探索性研究调查了研究重点的潜在性别差异,这些差异是由诸如围绕色情的既定性污名和传统性别规范等因素驱动的。利用时间和主题分析,我们确定并检查了2001年至2024年间发表的6145项色情研究的研究主题。我们的研究结果表明,主要作者的性别可能会影响主题的选择,女性探索的主题在历史上被低估或忽视。此外,女性主导的出版物更早、更突出地参与了互联网和网络相关的研究。此外,我们的分析概述了男性和女性主导的出版模式在该领域的演变,突出了更平衡的代表性趋势。本研究旨在为未来的研究奠定基础,鼓励在这一领域对性别差异及其潜在原因进行更深入的调查。我们还强调纵向研究的重要性,以揭示潜在的性别差异随着时间的推移。
