Additional Information to Explain to Authors - When Text Can Be Considered Pornographic (and is Prohibited)

Based on Slovak legislation and case law, I will explain the criteria for designating text as pornographic: Text can be considered pornographic if it meets these criteria:

It goes beyond eroticism - while eroticism portrays sexuality in an artistic, aesthetic, or sensitive manner, pornography is an explicit depiction of sexual acts with the dominant aim of provoking sexual arousal. The main purpose is sexual stimulation - the text focuses exclusively or predominantly on detailed descriptions of sexual acts without a broader narrative or artistic context. It contains vulgarisms - excessive use of vulgar terms for genitals and sexual activities. It lacks artistic/literary value - absence of story, character development, theme, or message beyond sexual content. It dehumanizes characters - reduces people to merely sexual objects without personality and character.

Erotic text (allowed) vs. pornographic text (prohibited): Erotic text (allowed):

Contains sexual scenes as part of a broader story Uses literary devices and metaphors Has artistic/literary value Characters have character and story Sexuality is a natural part of the plot

Pornographic text (prohibited):

Focused exclusively on detailed descriptions of sexual acts Uses vulgar expressions Without story and artistic value Characters are only sexual objects The sole purpose is sexual stimulation

In case of doubt, it is appropriate to mark the text as "18+" and leave the assessment of borderline cases to the moderators of the portal.
