A professor at an Australian university detailed different ways that pornography should be produced so it is “healthy” for young people to consume.
Alan McKee, a professor of social media at the University of Technology Sydney in Australia, posted a blog this week on “healthy” pornography consumption for young people on the pornographic website SexSchool, which claims to provide sexually explicit content in an educational manner.
“Digital distribution of pornography, combined with the fact that formal sex education in Western countries still struggles to address the things that young people actually want to learn about sex (like how to have pleasurable sex, rather than information about the protein coating of the HIV virus), makes the issue of the role of pornography in young people’s healthy sexual development a pressing one,” McKee wrote.
The Australian professor promoted his post on Twitter, saying, “If you’re an adult wanting to support a young person in your life with healthy sexual development, here are the hacks you need.”

The “hacks” McKee listed included ensuring that the content viewed portrayed consent onscreen and was socially and racially diverse by including “a variety of body types, abilities, genders, races and/or ethnicities.”
The professor wrote that the list was compiled with input from “a group of experts around the world” who came from “a range of backgrounds” and included “sex educators, pornography researchers, pornography producers, adolescent development experts and sexual health experts.”
Other details that must be included in “healthy” pornography, according to McKee and his confidants, are “a variety of sexual practices and pleasures” and the use of condoms and lubricants.

The post did not detail what age group McKee considered “young people.” The professor did not respond to a request for comment.
