Excited to share the latest output from a project about young people's attitudes and understandings of pornography. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... Project led by Dr Ryan Thorneycroft, who is amazing to work with, as is A/Prof Lucy Nicholas (co-author).

The phrase ‘fuzzy wuzzy angels’ is far from affectionate – it reflects 500 years of racism
