Researchers from Abertay University found that men who watch porn find women’s bodies less attractive—but their viewing habits do not influence how they see their faces. The study found that “much greater nuance” was required when considering the real effect of pornography on relationships. The lead researcher said: “What these findings suggest is that while sexual arousal induced via pornography plays some role in men’s attractiveness judgements of women, it is far from a simple stimulus-response relationship where some would suggest that watching porn has a universally negative impact on how men view other women.”
Participants in the study were asked to look at a series of porn stars either clothed, nude or engaged in sex, and then rate the attractiveness of other women. Researchers found that looking at adult entertainers reduced the attractiveness of familiar women’s bodies in the eyes of the participants, but not their faces. “Future research could explore these same effects in women and how porn consumption may influence attractiveness judgments over a long time period, and how the personality traits of the person viewing pornography also matter,” the researcher added.
