This article addresses border crossings in the 1970s related to sexual commerce,in particular in the small community of Hälle, located near the Sweden–Norwayborder at Svinesund and European route E6. As the legal situation with regardto pornography differed in Norway and Sweden, Swedish legislation being moreliberal, Norwegians travelled to Sweden to both buy and to consume on-sitesexually explicit material and entertainment. By choosing this perspective, thearticle shifts focus away from the sexually explicit material itself, towards thespaces in which it can be found, and reflects upon consumption of such materialas a literally transgressive, non-normative sexual behavior.
