I have to write a paper on pornography. Got any good porn resources? Books, articles, research, etc.?
Unfortunately I don’t think I’ve ever done a research paper on pornography itself, so I don’t have anything off the top of my head. I also haven’t read any books specifically on porn, although there are some out there. I did read Jenna Jamesons book, but that’s not necessarily a peer reviewed resource. Ahem. I would suggest hitting up the usual spots. If you have time to check out books from the library still, search on amazon for books about pornography. Check out google scholar, as well.
I would recommend using sources primarily from the past couple of years as the viewpoint of pornography changes pretty frequently. The studies that are coming out now might also be more… interesting, than studies that came out in a time where internet pornography wasn’t as prevalent. Those are some things I could keep in mind as you look.
Good luck!
