Pornography

Bodies Are Telling

TW: This episode contains discussion of sexual assault

For most of us, our relationship to porn is very secretive - just us and the dim light of our phone screen. Which is interesting given the fact that every single one of us has a relationship to porn - whether we watch it or not. In this episode, Ruby unpacks the realities of making and consuming porn. She speaks to porn performers about why people are so reluctant to pay for their pornography and the benefits and limitations of ethical porn, as well as unpacking the impacts watching porn can have on the self esteem and sexual experiences of adults.
