It’s a not-so-secret secret that women watch porn. We may not be as open about our habits as men are—and most likely watch videos on private-browsing mode—but more women enjoy getting off to porn than you’d expect. Whether we’re in a relationship or not, going solo is a daily occurrence for many of us.
Which leads me to this: Does the porn industry not realize women watch porn? Sure, there are membership sites exclusively for women, but not all women want to dish out $20 a month for porn that usually reinforces stereotypical ideas of what female pleasure looks like. We want to visit PornHub, RedTube, and YouPorn without having to trudge through hundreds of awful videos just to find one thing that will get us off.
1. We watch porn
2. Your 'female-friendly' category is abysmal
3. Fake nails are terrifying
4. 30 seconds of oral does not make a video 'for women'
5. Your ads need to be targeted better
6. We want more hot men
Most porn doesn’t focus on the man; videos typically include shots of his torso and maybe one shot of his face. The rest of the time, they almost exclusively focus on the woman’s face and body. But sometimes that’s for the best because the men cast in these videos are usually old and overweight, while the women are often unrealistically flawless.
Pro tip: Women want porn cast with attractive men. Lesbian scenes are on point, but man-on-woman scenes are sadly lacking in the hotness department, and overlook the fact that women are visual creatures, too.
And while we’re at it—why are there endless categories for all the female body types that turn men on, but exactly zero categories for male bodies? It would be nice if we could choose the kind of body or look that arouses us. I’m trying to get off to a Channing Tatum lookalike, not a dude with a dad bod who looks like he hasn’t showered in a week. Come on!
