METHODS: Cross-sectional study, with a sample of 172 participants selected and collected through social media. To assess the predictors of unprotected sexual practices, the Poisson regression model was used. Values were expressed as a robust prevalence ratio (PR) with their respective confidence intervals. RESULTS: There was a statistically significant association between, the use of condoms and the type of scenes that the participants prefer (p = 0.03), the preference for films with scenes involving unprotected sex or even those that do not care about protection (p = 0.02), the type of pornography watched influencing sexual relations (p = 0.017), and the number of scenes seen per week (p = 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The lack of condom use was associated with the access to erotic scenes.196092engPublic Health, Environmental and Occupational HealthSDG 3 - Good Health and Well-beingFactors associated with unprotected sex in people who consume sexually explicit mediajournal article10.1590/0034-7167-2021-0061https://www.scopus.com/pages/publications/85112694711
