During the Pornhub Awards, notable adult stars, including Asa Akira, discuss the effects of censorship on sexuality and the challenges of content accessibility. Akira emphasizes the need for better sex education to prevent minors from turning to porn for their understanding of sex. The conversation occurs in a context where over a third of US states restrict access to sites like Pornhub. With legislative efforts in Arizona aiming to set age verification requirements, the adult industry faces increasing pressure amid societal debates on sexual norms and education.
It's devastating to me that someone's first experience of sex could be a gang-bang scene of mine. Like, that's not OK," says Akira, 40, from inside a spacious villa at the Sunset Marquis hotel in West Hollywood.
If we had better sex ed, young people would not look to porn as education, just like they don't look to a movie to learn how to act in the world ... When it comes to sex, or even being nude, we talk about it so little.
