"Revenge pornography" involves the online posting of sexually explicit media without the featured individual’s consent, most commonly uploaded by an ex-partner. Almost unknown prior to 2010, the phenomenon has grown enormously in recent years. This pioneering study adopts a discursive psychology approach and examines revenge porn from the perspective of the perpetrators, studying the ways they invoke gender and sexuality, and the victim-blaming discourses they deploy. This enhanced understanding of the perpetrator mindset provides important insights into the use of social media to facilitate gender violence, and holds the promise of more effective interventions in future.
