Yet, previous content analyses of pornography have produced substantial variability in reported rates of aggression. Furthermore, these analyses did not include data from the last decade and most of them failed to examine time trends in pornographic representations of aggression. We examined a sample of 255 popular online pornographic videos from Pornhub, over a period of 25 years, from 2000 to 2024. While any visible physical aggression appeared in 43.9% of the videos in the entire sample, nonconsensual aggression was rare. Moreover, depictions of aggression in the most viewed videos have not been stable over time, with rates of aggression nearly tripling between the first and last decades of the analysis. While this growth is primarily the result of increases in spanking, we also found significant increases in hitting and choking practices. We discuss the potential consequences of these increases, as well as possible policy and educational implications.","PeriodicalId":51361,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sex Research","volume":"111 1","pages":"1-13"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145246963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In individual interviews with seven men (20-32 years), four themes were identified: \"Trying to be a good and caring partner,\" \"Fear of sexual and emotional rejection,\" \"Feelings of insecurity and being misled,\" and \"Keeping up the façade.\" Despite efforts to support their partners, the men often faced rejection, leading to insecurities about their attractiveness, the relationship's future, and their ability to conform to social expectations. They coped by concealing insecurities from their partners and overemphasizing traditional masculinity among peers. We discuss these results using sexual script theory, suggesting that gendered sexual scripts play a significant role in relationships with vulvodynia, with prevailing cultural assumptions regarding masculinity challenging men's ability to be simultaneously caring and sexual. As a result, the men found themselves negotiating two contrasting ideals associated with masculine behavior: those of good caregiver and assertive, virile sexual partner.

Understanding the impact of the pandemic on their sexual satisfaction is crucial for addressing SMM-specific needs and promoting sexual well-being. This scoping review aimed to comprehensively examine the existing literature on sexual satisfaction and its associated factors among SMM during the pandemic. After a literature search and review from six electronic databases according to PRISMA guidelines, only <i>n</i> = 8 studies met the eligibility criteria. Findings suggested that the evidence on the impact of the pandemic on sexual satisfaction was mixed. While some studies suggested that COVID-19 facilitated a more rapid establishment of sexual relationships, others claimed that lockdown measures prevented individuals from seeking sexual partners, resulting in lower satisfaction with their sex life. Greater sexual satisfaction was associated with younger age, being in a relationship, and residing in a large urban center. Conversely, it was negatively associated with distress, loss of connections to friends and the queer community, and experiencing relationship conflict. We thus highlight the complex interplay between the COVID-19 pandemic and sexual satisfaction among SMM. Further research is warranted to explore longitudinal trends, investigate the mechanisms underlying the identified associations, and develop targeted services to mitigate negative impacts and enhance sexual satisfaction among SMM. There is also a pressing need for research in low- to middle-income settings, where pervasive stigma surrounding sex may heighten vulnerabilities of SMM.</p>","PeriodicalId":51361,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sex Research","volume":" ","pages":"1548-1560"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143411441","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
