Abstract
Mainstream heterosexual pornography is freely available on the internet via pornography tube sites such as Pornhub. The popularity of these tube sites cannot be overstated, with Pornhub reporting 42 billion site visits in 2019 alone. Mainstream pornography is often infused with themes of male dominance, aggression, and female subservience. Much mainstream content fuses sex with aggression and eroticises inequalities between men and women. In so doing, mainstream pornography has the potential to normalise certain sexual ‘scripts’, thus seeding and structuring mainstream social attitudes and norms about aggressive sex as normal, common or expected in heterosexual encounters.
