Searches for “uniform” also grew by 243 per cent last year – and while this encompasses things like “military uniform” or “police uniform”, it also – disturbingly – highlights the infantilisation of women; throwing up images and videos which feed a lurid, worrying desire for underage-looking girls in school kilts and ties. The popularity of American Pie proved to young girls like me that our needs – in terms of sex, aftercare and emotion – were secondary to men’s desire to get laid. I’ve also recently discovered the “porn-dosing” trend, where women listen to audio porn while doing mundane tasks, such as their grocery shop or walking their dog. Even Anderson’s book tells us something about the shame women carry around sex, as the entries are anonymous.
