An expert’s exposé on the harms of Big Porn

Porn is everywhere. What's it doing to us?

'This book couldn’t be more important... Urgent, bold and unflinching.' Laura Bates, author of Everyday Sexism

Never more than a click away, porn is virtually inescapable. With minimal moderation, mainstream platforms don’t just host it, they push ever more extreme content into view, whether you want it or not.

The consequences are profound. Our most intimate relationships are being manipulated, our desires exploited. An entire generation is learning about sex not from experience or trust but from Pornhub, where fantasies are constructed by degrading, misogynistic and racist ideals that eroticise masculine dominance and normalise sexual violence. Meanwhile, non-consensual porn is destroying women’s lives, a threat now supercharged by deepfakes and AI.

We’re told we live in an age of sexual freedom, but this isn’t true. We are fighting not only for autonomy over our bodies and desires, but for gender equality itself. To move forward means confronting and dismantling both the patriarchy and the porn industry that sustains it.
