Educating the public about the importance of consent in all forms of media, including erotica, can also help. When people are aware of the harm of forced scenarios, they are more likely to report and avoid spreading such stories.
The media industry should also take responsibility. Publishers and producers should self - regulate and not produce or distribute any content that involves forced situations in gay erotica. Additionally, raising awareness in schools and communities about healthy sexual relationships and the unacceptability of non - consensual content can play a significant role in preventing the spread of such inappropriate stories.
One way is through strict content regulation on platforms. Websites and apps should have clear policies against such non - consensual and inappropriate content and enforce them by screening and removing relevant stories.
