Does Gay Porn Have Us Rethinking Masculinity?
“A new study shows that gay porn is even driving how straight guys see themselves — and that’s a good thing. Gay Pornography: Representations of Sexuality and Masculinity (I.B. Tauris), a new book by John Mercer of Britain’s Birmingham City University, suggests the iconography in gay porn and the ideals that those images represent are far more nuanced and diverse than they might originally appear. Rather than being one-dimensional, Mercer’s research shows that modern gay adult videos and imagery offer audiences a plurality of masculinities. A professor of gender and sexuality at the Birmingham Centre for Media and Cultural Research, Mercer is also coeditor of the Journal of Gender Studies, cofounder of Porn Studies, and an editorial board member for the journals Sexualities and Celebrity Studies.” Advocate
The Deuce Introduced ’70s-era Porn In Vivid Detail In Episode Two
“Episode Two of HBO’s The Deuce, “Show and Prove,” opens with officers Flanagan and Alston rounding up the women working in Times Square, hauling any of the girls who hadn’t been picked up within two days off to jail. It’s purely for show; later we see the policemen and the women hanging out freely behind the jail, eating Chinese. But it gives an idea of how the criminalization of sex work isn’t taken very seriously by those who enforce it and those who practice it. There are a lot of hassles that come with the hustle, and both the cops and the prostitutes have to play a part in this grand performance. (The question is: Who is the audience?)” Esquire
