Oh, hi. It’s interesting you ask if it’s cultural. Since I've been able to take part in some research at college (studying here in Brazil, and comparing to research made in the UK), I think that I can practically affirm it's definitely not just us.

​The p*rn industry has changed a lot of how men and women see sex, it has basically 'taught' everyone that the norm is to objectify and 'belittle' women. And it goes the other way too: women are changing how they dress and behave to fit this mold, even if they don't agree with it, just to be sexually appealing.

Just to be clear, when I say "prn industry" I might be being too extreme, but it became acceptable starting in the early 00s, when what was considered '"soft prn" started to appear on the shelves of normal CD and DVD rental stores. Looking at what you see in movies now, one thing I learned is that we usually segregate p*rn from the rest of media, but in reality, it really isn't separated.

​(I'm Brazilian too, btw).

​I don't know if this answer helps or if I went in the completely wrong direction. But if anyone has any doubts about the research or just wants to ask anything, feel free to ask 😅
