Interesting article on how different types of porn films (teen, MILF, etc.)
portray women differently.
I feel that it manages to simultaneously make some good and interesting
points and also to miss the point entirely. So older women are afforded
more respect and agency than younger women. How do they compare to the
respect and agency afforded men in those movies?
Actually, what I’m really curious about is how porn compares to the respect
and agency afforded women vs. men in mainstream movies, and also other
media. Honestly I have this sneaking suspicion that in some ways, porn
tends to be BETTER.
