But if we look at other art forms say cinema we can see that each culture produces different forms. so it is possible....
The critic of porn makes some true points...
I for one think the degradation of women problematic.
I stand up for sexual liberation of men and women and erotic material to be enjoyed by both....

Then you should exploit the market of people who would rather see the softer porn. They are out there.
But you just have to understand that the majority of folks prefer harder porn.
It's just the way it is. I've run my tgp's since the mid-1990's and sold millions of dollars worth of memberships to hundreds of programs. Our tgp's were the first ones back in the day to have seperate category pages.
And unequivocally, since day one...the softcore "babe" type galleries underperformed VASTLY when compared to hardcore.
Not saying there isn't a market...because there is. I'm just saying that when given the chance between two different sites: one with Puma Swede posing very sexy (like an old school Playboy shoot) and the other site with Puma Swede all sweaty and getting fucked by two guys in the ass...well, the majority of folks seem to migrate to seeing her in real hardcore action.
That's not a result of people being led by the nose to buy the harder stuff. It's just that when given a CHOICE, more people migrate to harder porn. It's more of a fantasy to those particular people.
And that's not a "myth" or a theory. It's what I've seen doing this very successfully for around 15 years online.
