There are a lot of problems with the porn industry — especially its treatment of young women. I’d be hard-pressed to name 20 GOOD things that the porn industry has done for the world, so thankfully our list today is just 20 things that that industry normalized.
Redditor u/NightAndTime recently asked the question on the AskReddit sub and people had some really intelligent, interesting insights. Let’s take a read.
1. Intense
The idea that sex is supposed to be this super intense serious thing…. like I can’t even watch most porn because no one ever smiles or laughs or is actually flirty or just acting normal… they always act like 2 gladiators who have to f*ck-battle each other to the death or something.
2. Hitting (WHY)
Incessant slapping of the vagina. Like, physically smacking the shit out of it with your hand. It’s something me and my friends have laughed about and it does nothing for any of us.
3. Yuck
The facial, don’t get me wrong, I’m not against it lol, just think its popularity is high because of porn
4. Nails
Those f-cking fingernails. Not my pussy girl.
5. Assault
Asian women sounding like they’re being assaulted and people getting off on that.
6. Look vs Feel
I think porn has normalized a lot of sexual standards. The whole idea of porn is for it to look good. Not feel good. Unfortunately for a lot of people porn is how they learn about sex.
7. Too much
Fucking rough and hard all the time.
8. Faking
Obnoxious moaning/faking.
9. Not how it works
Guys think if they touch my vagina I’m going to start moaning in uncontrollable pleasure.
10. Nope, nope, nope
One does not simply slip it into the backdoor without proper preparation/lube/consent. I’ve seen way too many videos where the guy just “oops”es it into the backdoor and after a moment of “omg wtf” she’s just onboard with it. Nah, that ain’t how it works.
11. Gagging
I think that it’s made a lot of anal stuff way more mainstream.. as well as the current trend of c*ck gagging w the whole crying & make up running .. that whole thing def started in porn
12. Aaaand done
I hate when in movies a girl has raw sex and then pulls her pants up and goes to work hahaha EW
13. So odd
Speaking English during sex. It’s effing weird, me and my girlfriend are Swedish yet we still speak English. ”Oh fuck, yeah” and so forth. From what I gather atleast some of our friends do the same thing.
14. Good lord
In porn, ‘You either die a step daughter, or live long enough to see yourself become the step mom.’ Found this meme on r/dankmemes lol
15. Squirting
Ikr, like guys be more concerned about having to make you squirt. Like how about you concern yourself with making me cum instead, sir.
16. So painful
Furious fingerbanging. Just…no.
17. Impossible
Deepthroating, face-fucking, and gagging on a dick to the point you almost vomit (or actually do, and they just cut around it).
18. Not the way
I learned sex through porn. I thought you basically do the formula – go down on a guy, if he likes it, he goes down on you, you fuck in various positions, and you get cum everywhere. The messier, the better.
I never understood how women enjoyed it.
19. Parents
The sexualisation of the words “mommy” and “daddy”. It makes me so uncomfortable. I get that some people have daddy/mommy issues and thus like it, but a lot of us have a good relationship with our parents and calling our partners by nicknames for our parents is just so weird (to me).
20. Does not work
Showing your dick out of nowhere to a girl in the hopes she’ll be so impressed it makes her horny.
