Research has shown that exposure to erotic material can lead to favorable attitudes towards sexual promiscuity and experimentation, which in turn may influence sexual behavior. However, there is no evidence that exposure to erotic material directly leads to sexual activity or sexual offenses. The statement that erotic material only stimulates sexual desire in males is also false as both males and females have been found to respond to erotic material.
