How has porn changed the way we think about sex? Is pornography liberating or limiting us? And what really happens to couples who watch porn together? In an intriguing lecture, Sivan Lotan will examine the world of pornography and the industry behind it. We will address the way porn influences perceptions of the body, sexuality, relationships, and boundaries. We will explore the "feminist sex wars"—the ongoing debate on pornography as oppression versus pornography as a space for expression and pleasure—and discuss the effects of exposure in the digital era, alongside the development of alternative and feminist content.
Through Lotan's research conducted as part of her thesis, we will also look at couples who watch pornography together and develop a complex, curious, and non-judgmental perspective on one of the most loaded topics in contemporary culture.
