Canadians have the honour of owning the world’s biggest conveyor of woman-hating, the Montreal-based website Porn Hub. The website is free to access, with no age restrictions and no restrictions on the defilement of women. Rape and torture videos abound...
Porn Hub was visited 42 billion times in 2019. To put this number in perspective, there are 4 billion men on the planet.
Sharing findings from @NCOSE Research Institute on study about how porn impacts users’ brains. endsexualexploitation.org/articles/resea…
Among several findings, the study showed: 1) increased activation of the same brain regions associated with substance-use addictions in response to sexual stimuli, and 2) dissociation between sexual desire and liking of sexual stimuli among CSB men compared to controls.
These findings provide important evidence of neurobiological similarities between CSB and substance-use disorders (e.g., nicotine, cocaine, alcohol)—specifically sensitization to addiction-related cues.

“The victim asked Hassan, who was previously convicted of burning down his family home, to remove the video.
He did so but a few months later reposted it to #Pornhub.
The distraught woman again asked him to remove the video which he did, only to upload it on another occasion.”

“The repeated uploading and repeated requests to take down the video shows a persistent disregard for the complainant,” Sgt Williams said.

You don’t need to go on the dark web to access child sexual abuse material. Just log on to @Twitter
“... Twitter is responsible for half the UK’s child abuse material in Great Britain and Northern Ireland, according the watchdog, The Internet Watch Foundation.” @IWFhotline

Before #COVID19 “Minister for Home Affairs Peter Dutton gave a speech on March 5 stating: “ … every five minutes a web page shows a child being sexually abused. Australia, I’m sorry to say, contributes to the epidemic of child sexual abuse.”

“Ms Lalor said compulsive pornography consumption was one of the main problems people with sex addiction wanted help to manage, followed by using prostitutes.” (Sexually exploiting women)
“Yes. Watching pornography is bad for people’s relationships, their sex lives, and their treatment of others. Sex is great, but porn is not.” -@MichaelGLFlood

Hi @ConversationEDU you might be interested in this campaign re @Pornhub & owners @mindgeek for hosting footage of trafficking, rape and child sexual abuse. Former porn actress @jennajameson has shared a video about the campaign. Check it out here.
The campaign concerning @Pornhub can be found here traffickinghub.com
Great to see articles on @ConversationEDU about this important issue.

It appears @Pornhub has quietly removed their channel “Black Patrol” after we exposed them just last week.
This channel featured videos of police officers targeting black men.

How was this ever allowed on @Pornhub?
Videos from “Black Patrol” are still there.
Men are masturbating to parodies of police brutality against black men. Where is the outrage?

It looks like “African F**k Tour” has also disappeared from @Pornhub after we exposed them.
These are channels that were on #Pornhub for years. Pornhub will always host #racism

Interesting personal story from a woman who quit porn.
“Growing up, I used porn to simply pass the time. In lockdown, I’m having to resist those urges.”

“Magazines like Cosmopolitan, in their efforts to normalise porn culture, encourage women to take ‘the plunge into porn’ in order to add fun and spice into their love lives. But these magazines aren’t our first encounter with porn:...”
“...like many girls of my generation, the Playboy pencil case accompanied me on my first day of high school, my pre-pubescent self? blissfully unaware of the cute bunny emblem’s significance.”
“Child abuse and the spread of child pornography is on the rise as more Australians access the dark web.
Police say there has been a disturbing increase in Australians downloading and sharing illegal images during the coronavirus lockdown period.”

“The rise in sharing child pornography has alarmed police and Kershaw said there had been a definite increase during the virus period because more people were using the dark web and spending more time there.”

Our obligation to protect children, and the protections afforded to children by an online age verification system far outweigh the concerns of those with vested interests in the global porn industry. - collectiveshout.org/submission_to_…
An online age verification system upholds Australia’s international obligations to protect children from abuse, exploitation and developmental harm, acknowledging that exposure to online pornography amounts to abuse, exploitation and harm. #Pornharns #childrensrights
"[Porn] contains a lot of violence against women. It's terribly racist. If you look at mainstream porn, it's terribly misogynist.

.@DrMeaganTyler told ABC that porn has become normalised in our society and the demand for "ethical porn" was part of that.
"Why is [there a] desperation for there to be an ethical porn, rather than the question of what would sexuality look like without pornography now?"

"In a post #metoo era if we're really talking about sharing equal sexual relations between men & women I cannot see the porn industry is part of that.”
"You can't say you're pro-Me Too and pro women's consent & still masturbate to material that fundamentally subordinates women."

"Mr Poole said he and his team treated too many cases of damaging internet access by children in ACT for Kids’ Intensive Family Support program and particularly through its Sexual Abuse Counselling services, which operate throughout the Gold Coast." @ActforKids
@ActforKids “The most frequent concern is the sexualised behaviours displayed by young children, as well as inappropriate contact by children with other children or siblings as a result of having been exposed to internet pornography,” he warned. @ActforKids #pornharms #sexualisation
Chocking in porn is something feminists critical of the porn industry have been raising for at least a decade. What happens when you eroticise #MVAW en masse? (and then tell everyone it’s not MVAW) This. A must read. #EndVAW #pornharms theguardian.com/society/2019/j…
And, of course, there is a female pornographer saying the real problem is that choking isn’t generally shown in an appropriate BDSM context. Which is just more gaslighting. We have to be able to name men’s violence against women if we ever hope to address it, let alone end it.
