The project has implications for a wide range of public debates in Australia today, including debates about the ethics and psychology of the pornography industry and the pervasive use of the ‘sex sells’ principle in marketing and entertainment. It will produce new knowledge and understanding of how psychological theory has been used to rationalise the commercialisation of sex in consumer culture and how modern rhetoric of sexual liberation have been shaped by the very economic concerns they purport to repudiate. Finally, the project will advance the knowledge-base of key disciplines in the new humanities and enhance Australia's reputation for groundbreaking research in cultural history and analysis.

该项目对当今澳大利亚广泛的公共辩论产生了影响，包括关于色情业的道德和心理以及在营销和娱乐中普遍使用“性销售”原则的辩论。它将产生新的知识和理解，心理学理论如何被用来合理化消费文化中的性商业化，以及性解放的现代修辞如何被他们声称要否定的经济问题所塑造。最后，该项目将推进新人文学科关键学科的知识基础，并提高澳大利亚在文化历史和分析方面开创性研究的声誉。
