Who wants to watch softcore nonsense involving people doing things that are not how sex actually works? Gen Z is first gen to come of age when porn is prolific. Mainstream film can't compete with step siblings getting stuck on the interwebs.

You don't make passionate love to your wife while she's wearing all her clothes and wake up in the morning with her wearing full makeup?

Where do we get the L-shaped blankets?

Porn is really not how sex actually works

I think porn gets it more right than Hollywood does. People in porn at least successfully take their pants off.

[-] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 25 points 1 year ago

And no Hollywood, all women don't have an orgasm in 30 seconds! Movie sex would be extremely disappointing in real life.

Well according to Hollywood, sex is either life alteringly amazing, life alteringly traumatic, or interrupted by a phone call.

The Olympics is not how normal people exercise either

As an elder millennial, porn has been prolific longer than you think. Late 90s and early 2000s LAN parties were half playing video games and half copying vast amounts of porn from each other.

I've also found that gen z aren't as sex crazed as we were, I felt like I had a monkey on my back and had to screw everything. Gen z is more aware of the consequences, and they have other shit to keep them occupied, we were bored a lot.

Lolol millennials had online porn from before early puberty for all but the most seniors of them.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

Most senior? Gen X here. I got my porn from the Internet too. Just before the web existed. We used Usenet and Gopher.

All 12 of you 🤣

I went on the side of caution. At some point early 90s, it became more popular outside of the limited users of computers.

I'm 36 and had internet porn since before I got puberty.

But yeah, I agree. I skip sex scenes now. I don't feel like they add anything. Like you can just cut out all the nude backs and moaning and nothing of value would be lost. We get it, they had sex, move on.

41 here. No internet before puberty. I remember watching late night TV hoping for a few seconds of smooching and maybe even boobs.

[-] j4k3@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Most of us had it, but most were on things like family computers trying to be covert about it. Capacitive touch screen phones changed everything for access. No one was getting imaginative with the snake game on a Nokia 3310 back in the day.

Kinks have diversified. Main stream can't catch up!
