(QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA) — A research study on the “objectification of women” in adult entertainment has been published in the prestigious Journal of Sex Research.
Queensland University of Technology researcher Alan McKee measured the degree to which women are treated as objects or playthings in mainstream adult entertainment videos in Australia, using the best-selling 50 videos as samples and asking graduate students to code scenes based on 12 measurement criteria.
The results show that women are not objectified more than men in the genre (virtually all of which is American product).
FSC has asked the Journal of Sex Research for permission to distribute this important research to interested members. It is available now by subscription from: SexScience.org/publications/index.php?category_id=439
