Adult entertainment is a billion-dollar industry. In the U.S. alone, estimates place just Internet porn as making around $3 billion dollars a year. Porn has such a large influence on our own lives that average people’s sexual experiences are tied to the rise and fall of fads in porn.
Don’t believe me? Porn influences us so much that when porn stars started waxing and shaving their pubic hair, the masses followed. Before, the average person proudly had a bush. Then suddenly both men and women are flocking to get their bushes whacked. The porn we see directly influences our entire idea of what is more “attractive” on our sexual partners.
There are so many different genres of porn that you can find anything that you’re into, any time of the day. Try different genres of porn — don’t let the names of the genres turn you off; there’s usually lots of overlap between genres, and you never know what combination can really turn you on the most unless you experiment.
If you and your partner are comfortable enough, I suggest you bring porn into the bedroom with your partner. Try and role-play out the scenes that you watch together. Get your positions to mimic those that are on the screen (even the oral technique). Watching porn while you’re having sex can be very visually stimulating for both partners. Add the physical stimulation of sex, and you’ll be in for a real treat.
A lot of porn includes having bareback sex — not using protection. I don’t suggest this. Reputable porn companies have to test their employees before every film, usually multiple times. Always use protection, not just to protect yourself, but to protect your partner as well.
Here are some helpful statistics about porn from Huffington Post and Cosmopolitan Magazine about how involved porn is in people’s lives:
