Hi! I am Patrick Catuz and in my Series „What about PORN STUDIES?“ I want to promote the rather new and vibrant academic field of Porn Studies.

This is the interview with John Mercer who is Professor of Gender and Sexuality at the Birmingham City University. He writes about the pornography debate, the sexualisation of contemporary media culture and contemporary masculinity, politics of representation, in particular sexual representation, the connections between gay pornography and the making of a gay identity and the social and cultural construction of masculinities.
