Abstract
Men's violence against women is a major global problem. Pornography often depicts
humiliation and violence against women. Moreover, it becomes problematic to work for
an equal society when children have free access to pornography online. Therefore, the
aim of the study is to investigate how employees in Swedish healthcare and aid
organizations perceive the relationship between online pornography and sexual
aggression amongst children. Furthermore, we examine the need to limit the access to

Men's violence against women is a major global problem. Pornography often depicts
humiliation and violence against women. Moreover, it becomes problematic to work for
an equal society when children have free access to pornography online. Therefore, the
aim of the study is to investigate how employees in Swedish healthcare and aid
organizations perceive the relationship between online pornography and sexual
aggression amongst children. Furthermore, we examine the need to limit the access to
online pornography for children. The data collection consists of three semi-structured
interviews that have been analysed with thematic analysis. According to the
interviewees, pornography is described as degrading towards women, violent and does
not portray consensual sex. In addition, they highlight that aggressive and humiliating
sexual behaviour is applied in children's sexual practices. Both boys and girls are
affected, however in different ways where pornography creates involuntary perpetrators
in boys and reluctant victims in girls. We found that the interviewees consider limiting
the access to online pornography for children, through age-verification and
internetfiltering. However, the interviewees do not consider that to be a sufficient
solution. Hence, they highlight the role of sex education and norm criticism as a vital
component to limit aggressive sex practices among children. Swedish laws that regulate
pornography for citizens only cover depiction and dissemination. However, these laws
do not cover consumption and possession. The effects of pornography should be studied
further. The use and definition of the word violent pornography should be further
clarified. (Less)
