A Large-Scale Comparison of Canadian Sexual/Gender Minority and Heterosexual, Cisgender Adolescents’ Pornography Use Characteristics

Abstract

Approximately two-thirds of teenagers had gained their first experience with pornography in the present sample, and 52.2% reported using it once a week or more often in the past 3 months, indicating that pornography use may play an important role in both HC and SGM adolescents' sexual development. Gender-based differences concerning pornography use seem to be robust regardless of SGM status. Bőthe B, Vaillancourt-Morel, MP, Girouard A, et al.
