What is your gender?
Describe your use of pornography (e.g. how frequently do you watch porn? are there specific themes to the pornography that you watch? Hard-core, soft-core, violence or humiliation, lovemaking and intimacy?
What is the earliest age that you can remember watching pornographic material? Overtime, has your use of porn increased steadily? Fluctuated? Stayed the same? Increased?
If your use of pornography has fluctuated what are some of the “triggers” that cause you to consume more porn?
Has watching pornography impacted your “real-world” sexual interactions? If so, how? (e.g. has it made you less interested in sex with your current partner if you have one, has it made you less likely to seek out sexual partners?, Do you have a desire to replicate scenarios that you have seen in porn?
Has watching pornography created any insecurities for you? (e.g. concerns about the size of your breasts, penis, or butt, concerns about how you conform to proscribed gender roles-how masculine or feminine you are-, concerns about your ability to satisfy your partner?
Do you experience guilt about your consumption of pornography? Have you tried to stop or decrease your usage of porn, but have not been able to?
Has pornography added value to your sexuality or to you as an individual? If so, please describe how.
Finally, what are your thoughts and feelings about the argument presented by Grant Hilary Brenner MD? Brenner says that porn on the whole is problematic. Do you agree or disagree? Why do you feel the way that you do?
