Talk about pornography with adolescents : Midwives’ experiences, a qualitative interview study (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Genomsnittsåldern för exponering av pornografi bedöms vara så låg som 10-års ålder. Ungdomar vänder sig till pornografi i brist på adekvat sex- och samlevnadsundervisning och konsumtion av pornografi kan leda till sexuellt riskbeteende. Barnmorskan har en vital roll i att främja sexuell hälsa såväl i enskilda samtal på ungdomsmottagningen som i skolan. Syfte: Att undersöka barnmorskors erfarenheter av att samtala om pornografi med ungdomar. Metod: I studien genomfördes intervjuer med sex barnmorskor verksamma på olika ungdomsmottagningar i sydvästra Sverige. Datamaterialet analyserades med hjälp av kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat: Analysen gav upphov till fyra kategorier; Barnmorskan anpassar sitt förhållningssätt, Effekter av ungdomars konsumtion, Pornografi finns överallt och Barnmorskan berikar sex- och samlevnadsundervisningen. Konklusion: Barnmorskor erfar att samtal om pornografi är utmanande. Pornografiskt material bidrar till komplex kring fysiologiska och kroppsliga attribut hos ungdomar och medför att normer förskjuts och aktioner normaliseras, vilket resulterar i att ungdomar utför saker mot sin vilja. Pornografins förmåga att influera och de potentiella risker som konsumtion medför i samband med att ingen barnmorska per automatik diskuterar pornografi med ungdomar bör ses som ett observandum. Samtalet om pornografi kan därmed vara avgörande för att främja och stärka den sexuella hälsan bland ungdomar.

Abstract [en]

Background: The average age of exposure of pornography is estimated to be as low as 10 years. Adolescents turn to pornography due to a lack of adequate sex and cohabitation education, and consumption of pornography can lead to a sexual risk behaviour. The midwife has a vital role in promoting sexual health in individual conversations at the youth clinic as well as in school. Aim: To explore midwives’ experiences of talking to adolescents about pornography Method: The study were conducted by interviews with midwives working at various youth centers in southwestern Sweden. The data material was analyzed using qualitative content analysis. Result: The analysis gave rise to four categories; The midwife adapts her approach, The effects of adolescents consumption, Pornography is everywhere and The midwife enriches sex and cohabitation education. Conclusion: Midwives find that talking about pornography is challenging. Pornographic material contributes to the complexity of physiological and physical attributes of adolescents and causes norms to be shifted and actions normalized, resulting in adolescents doing things against their will. Pornography’s ability to influence and the potential risks that consumption entails in connection with the fact that no midwife automatically discusses pornography with adolescents should be seen as an admonition. The conversation can therefore be crucial in promoting and strengthening the sexual health of adolescents.
