What is special about porn that women like

Although many are not yet ready to say it, one thing is certain: women watch porn too.

That the public of so-called adult films is only male is a popular belief that hardly dies but fortunately the new generations are starting to dismantle it, increasingly promoting the idea of ​​a sexuality for all free from preconceptions.

According to some data released by Pornhub, in 2019 the users of erotic videos were 29% of the total but you can bet that in the post lockdown era, the numbers have increased remarkably. Considering that many women do it but do not confess it, it is no exaggeration to think that the percentages between the two sexes are very similar.

Different, on the other hand, it seems to be the approach to matter and above all the characteristics of the searched videos in large majority by the female audience.

Videos often made by women for women and that precisely for this reason they intercept tastes and emotions, eliminating that sexist component and absolute male domination to which traditional porn has accustomed us.

Women always protagonists

Although the areas of the brain affected by viewing pornography and the neuro transmitters produced are the same in men and women, many studies have shown that while the preference of the former goes towards male-centric images, often aggressive, with immediate content and in which female pleasure is clearly in the background, the most clicked videos on online porn platforms by women respond to exactly the opposite logic, as explained by the psychologist and sexologist Azzurra Carrozzo.

«In principle, the woman does not appreciate a plot that goes straight to the point but he prefers a little premise that reproduces the preliminary stages of a complete sexual relationship, exactly as it happens in reality ».

The female audience would also be more oriented towards video lesbian, threesome usually with 2 men, group and adultery in which the actress is at the heart of the dynamics and play a predominant role.

This last characteristic is decisive in bringing women closer to an erotic vision, where the identification with those on stage is quite strong. «The fact that the actress is not the object of the man on duty but the protagonist of his own pleasure it is a priority to ignite the desire of the spectators ».

Also, while male videos are often artifacts, what makes female videos somehow special is also greater realism.

Violence? Only if fictional

Another cornerstone of female (and feminist) porn is the absence of violence. «Each gesture is conducted with the utmost respect for the participants and the theme of coercion or the supremacy of man never appears. This of course it doesn’t mean that women are only attracted to delicate sex but that also the submission either experienced as a fantasy or framed in precise and always respectful narrative codes of the parties. Women like the same sex that men love but want it to be told from their point of view. All what happens on stage it has to revolve around their body and their pleasure».
