How do we talk about porn? Why it is that when we do talk about porn, we tend to retreat into the abstract? How do we have meaningful conversations about it with those closest to us? In Porn: An Oral History, Polly Barton interrogates the absence of discussion around a topic that is ubiquitous and influences our daily lives. In her search for understanding, she spent a year initiating intimate conversations with nineteen acquaintances of a range of ages, genders and sexualities about everything and anything related to porn: watching habits, emotions and feelings of guilt, embarrassment, disgust and shame, fantasy and desire. Soon, unfolding before her, was exactly the book that she had been longing to encounter - not a traditional history, but the raw, honest truth about what we aren't saying. A landmark work of oral history written in the spirit of Nell Dunn, Porn is a thrilling, thought-provoking, revelatory, revealing, joyfully informative and informal exploration of a subject that has always retained an element of the taboo.

Kdo, co a za jakých okolností označuje za pornografii? Kdy, proč a kým je pornografie označena za závadnou? Jak se k sobě mají pornografie a feministické hnutí, potažmo hnutí za práva sexuálních menšin? Jak souvisí porno se sexuální emancipací a genderovou diskriminací? Můžou (porno)obrazy, které jsme zvyklí vnímat jako pouhé reprezentace, přímo konat v sociální realitě? Jak se proměňuje význam pornografie prostřednictvím citace („fotka na fotce“)? Jakou moc má stát při rozhodování o tom, co je zákonem postižitelná pornografie? Odpověď na otázku, co je to pornografie, a hlavně jestli je užitečná, nebo škodlivá, se proměňuje v závislosti na historickém a politickém kontextu. Konvenčně se pornografie pojímá jako otázka morálky.
