The hypothesis that women would be more aroused to explicit erotica containing a romantic (rather than nonromantic) theme while men would not be affected by the thematic manipulation was tested, 164 college students (91 male and 73 female), 21 years of age and older, viewed one of four video vignettes taken from commercially available sexually explicit video tapes. The four videos represented the systematic manipulation of two independent variables: (i) high vs. low expression of love and affection (e.g, kissing, nongenital touching, and verbal expressions of caring); and (ii) high vs. moderate sexual explicitness (i.e., "hard" vs. "soft" X-rated material). The results indicated that both male and female subjects rated the high explicit/high romantic vignette as significantly more arousing than the high explicit/low romantic vignette. Thus, the finding for males was contrary to expectations. The results are, however, consistent with the recent movement to romanticize highly explicit sexual material. Theoretical implications of these findings are examined.
女性观看含有浪漫（而非非浪漫）主题的露骨色情作品时会更易被唤起性欲，而男性则不会受到主题操纵的影响。164名年龄在21岁及以上的大学生（91名男性和73名女性）观看了从市售露骨色情录像带中选取的四个视频短片之一。这四个视频代表了两个自变量的系统操纵：（i）爱与情感的高表达与低表达（例如亲吻、非生殖器接触以及关爱的言语表达）；以及（ii）高露骨程度与中等露骨程度（即“硬”X级与“软”X级材料）。结果表明，男性和女性受试者都认为高露骨/高浪漫的短片比高露骨/低浪漫的短片更能唤起性欲。因此，男性的这一结果与预期相反。然而，这些结果与最近将高度露骨的性材料浪漫化的趋势是一致的。本文探讨了这些发现的理论意义。
