Pornographic Lives

ROBERT JENSEN

University of Texas at Austin

This article argues that narrative accounts are an important source of information about the connection between pornography and violence against women. The article reports on interviews with men about pornography use. When analyzed in conjunction with narrative accounts of women's experiences, these interviews support the feminist antipronography critique. The narratives show how pornography can (a) be a factor in shaping a male-dominant view of sexuality, (b) contribute to a user's difficulty in separating sexual fantasy and reality, (c) be used to initiate victims and break down resistance to sex, and (d) provide a training manual for abuse.
