This week, CNBC unearthed an exciting “new market” for the porn industry: women.“Because so much porn focuses on extreme fantasies, it has been off-putting to many women,” Chris Morris reports. “Overly buxom sex pots do things many women would never consider.” But today -- with a little mainstream encouragement from 50 Shades of Grey, the theory goes -- porn companies like New Sensations and Pink Visual are explicitly targeting women with some less-explicit fare. Think rom-com narrative, but with a graphic sexual denouement. “This is more making love than f---ing,” New Sensations president Scott Taylor told Morris. “It's a connection between two people."
It’s great that companies like New Sensations, and outlets like CNBC, are helping to legitimize women as viewers of pornography.
