You start to see porn in the CAV at 12-13 years old.
- Save The Children has interrogated teenagers to analyze their relationship with pornography. In Araba, Bizkaia and Gipuzkoa, seven out of ten Basques have ever seen pornography, had their first contact with 12-13 years, and three out of ten teenagers say that pornography has "a lot or a lot of influence" on their sexual relations.
A total of 267 adolescents were interviewed at the CAV (1753 in the Spanish state). The difference is that nine out of ten guys have ever seen pornography, while half have seen it among girls. Free websites are the main access to pornography.
More than half of the respondents believe that their pornography use is responsible and that they are able to distinguish between their sexual practices and pornography, but almost one in six believes that their sexual relations and what they see in porn are similar. In addition, porn influences a lot or a lot on sexual intercourse of 33.4%. They have also been asked about the dangerous practices that appear in pornography (e.g. not using condoms), hierarchies or the gender perspective. The full report can be read in this link.
"They think they know a lot, but they don't know the essentials."
In ARGIA, we discussed the issue in depth, and one of the conclusions was that there is still little and wrong teaching of sexuality in the center and outside of it to children and young people. After all, due to porn, “young people know many concepts (they talk about cunnilingus, they tell you they are demisexual or pansexual…) and they think they know a lot, but then they do not know the essential, they know very little about their skin, body and what they like,” explained Olatz Berastegi, among other things.
"How can you help them put filters if you can't talk about it?"
Instead of ignoring pornography, Mikel Oribe was betting on cultivating it: “It’s more appropriate to discuss this reality than to look the other way, but it’s a taboo subject in schools. How can you help put filters on what you see if you can't talk about that? And parents see their children always very young, they think they don't see porn, and it's not true."
