Public are concerned about link between online porn and sexual violence against women and girls – study
from Christian Today:
A majority of UK adults fear that online porn is driving sexual violence against women and girls.
In a Savanta Comres poll commissioned by CARE, 6 in 10 UK adults said they were “concerned that pornography is inspiring sexual violence against women and girls.”
Only 1 in 10 disagreed with the statement.
Women were more likely to be concerned about a link between porn and sexual violence (7 in 10) than men (5 in 10).
But there was broad support among both male and female respondents for tougher curbs on vile content.
Overall, 7 in 10 said they wanted to see the government take action to stop websites from publishing extreme forms of pornography that portray violent or non-consensual sex.
The research comes just weeks after Wayne Couzens was jailed for life for the kidnap, rape and murder of Sarah Everard. During sentencing, the Old Bailey heard how the former police officer was “attracted to violent sexual pornography”.
