(42,674 posts)Is how common the blatant racism is. The well endowed African American and white women is a common racist trope.
I like erotica and I read it when I can find something decent.
I have trashed nearly every "50 shades" thread, because every one gets derailed in some way. It's too bad, because there is a decent conversation to be had about the state of erotica.
In order to have an opinion about pornography one should know what's being presented to the public and the purchaser as acceptable. "50 shades" might be nonsense, albeit violent and ignorant nonsense. That's all I'm saying.
I know one popular on-line website that promotes just about everything in it's written pornography, including incest-- very common, as well as pedophilia--not just the young, but children, who are usually presented as either seducers or innocents. I've often wondered a) who writes this shit, and b) who reads it (the stories are coded, so you know when pediphilia is involved) There are so many common racist tropes, you can pick your poison, Black, Asian, Latino. Whiteness is of course the default state. Here we have people who don't even recognize or acknowledge white privilege, so they are of course going to defend racism in pornography.
