Ive watched the porn our children are looking at and we should be terrified says Sarah Vine. This is hard, sickening, degrading porn the kind of stuff that, until very recently, you could buy only under the counter or in licensed sex shops. The Queens home town of Windsor is not what immediately springs to mind when one thinks of internet pornography. And yet it is here, in a small, neat office in the shadow of the great castle, that some of the most depraved acts ever to be performed by one human being on another are unfolding in front of my very eyes. I am here with Peter Johnson, chief executive of the Authority for Television On Demand ATVOD, set up by Ofcom in 2. BBC i.

Things that are so seared onto my retinas that they will not, I fear, fade any time soon. Young women, their faces contorted in pain sexual vocabulary I never even imagined existed human flesh displayed like meat on a butchers block. Visions that, as the mother of two children aged 1. I have never before experienced. Why You might well ask. First, because as a parent I feel it is my duty to see what my children might be exposed to as they transit from the relative safety of primary school to secondary education, where every child has a mobile device and where the internet is an integral part of youth culture. Second, because of what the Lord Chief Justice, Lord Thomas, said a couple of weeks ago. Speaking about the horrific case of Georgia Williams, a 1. Shropshire when her boyfriend, 2.

Jamie Reynolds, persuaded her to pose for him with a rope around her neck for a fantasy photoshoot and then kicked away the chair beneath her, he declared in no uncertain terms that extreme online porn is fuelling rape and murder.

Teenagers are witnessing girls choking and vomiting in shock and pain, tears running down their cheeks, their eyes bulging, their skin red and raw. And lastly, because of a report published this week by the NSPCC revealing that, in the UK, two in five girls aged between 1. This ranged from rape to other types of abuse, including slapping, punching, strangling and being beaten with an object. The numbers are distressing enough, but its that last bit that really stands out for me. Because after my virtual tour of free to view internet porn sites, its clear to me that boys are acting out what they see. Not only are they expecting sex at an age when my generation was still at the snogging stage, they are also mimicking the brutal and shocking violence towards women that characterises these sites. One film I watched involved one girl and five men and lasted fully 5. Girls choking and vomiting in shock and pain, tears running down their cheeks, their eyes bulging, their skin red and raw. Angry men, pumped up on steroids, language raw and abusive, pressing, thrusting, pushing, slapping. Distorted, twisted bodies that barely resemble humans a Hieronymus Bosch vision of hell made flesh. And all this available to view in the UK, free and unfettered, to anyone of any age with access to a computer or mobile device which does not have an anti porn filter. The truth, Im afraid, is staring us in the face over the past decade or more, thanks to the freedom of the internet, pornography has crawled out from under the counter straight to the nations laptops and smart screens, infecting the minds of a generation of young adults. This is not, I repeat, mainstream porn. It makes Linda Lovelace look like Mother Teresa. The majority of what I witnessed involved women either responding neutrally or positively to acts of violence savage hair pulling, slapping, kicking, throttling. Oh relax, you neurotic middle class prude, I hear liberal voices murmuring. The making and watching of such films empowers women. Its a sign of the liberation of the female spirit, evidence of a mature and equal society. Sorry, but no right thinking person could watch this stuff and conclude that it is anything other than exploitative. The girls and women in these films are not liberated they are sad, tragic creatures.

Because of the laws around the need for porn to be consensual, films containing extreme violence have perfunctory scenes tacked on the beginning. A girl confesses to having a rape fantasy, for example, or expresses a desire to be dominated. What follows, however, inevitably goes way beyond the realms of erotic fantasy. One film I watched involved one girl and five men and lasted fully 5. I witnessed just under an hour of total subjugation of a woman who, at the end of it, was barely conscious and had to have her head held up by her hair by one of the men for the parting shot.

Any one could be a young man my daughter meets in a few years time. A young man whose formative sexual experiences do not consist of clustering around a dog eared copy of Playboy in the school playground, or fumbling with a stubborn bra strap, but of watching girls being used, abused and tossed aside like trash.

Yes, certain types of pornography anything involving children, for example, or bestiality, or specific types of bodily harm are very clearly illegal.
