Pornified: How Pornography Is Damaging Our Lives, Our Relationships, and Our Families Paperback - 2006

by Pamela Paul

Once a taboo vice no one dared to mention, porn has become affordable, accessible, anonymous, and increasingly acceptable. This volume's investigation will further the discussion of how and where porn meets the public eye.


From the publisher

Strips porn of its culture-war claptrap . . . Pornified may stand as a Kinsey Report for our time.--San Francisco Chronicle Porn in America is everywhere--not just in cybersex and Playboy but in popular video games, advice columns, and reality television shows, and on the bestseller lists. Even more striking, as porn has become affordable, accessible, and anonymous, it has become increasingly acceptable--and a big part of the personal lives of many men and women. In this controversial and critically acclaimed book, Pamela Paul argues that as porn becomes more pervasive, it is destroying our marriages and families as well as distorting our children's ideas of sex and sexuality. Based on more than one hundred interviews and a nationally representative poll, Pornified exposes how porn has infiltrated our lives, from the wife agonizing over the late-night hours her husband spends on porn Web sites to the parents stunned to learn their twelve-year-old son has seen a hardcore porn film. Pornified is an insightful, shocking, and important investigation into the costs and consequences of pornography for our families and our culture.

First line

What's a nice girl like you doing writing a book about porn?"
