How has the porn industry shifted over the past 20 years, and how is it that Hollywood still gets it wrong when it comes to intimacy? What are the most common fantasies that women have based on their top porn interests? What about men/other genders? If I identify as a feminist and yet I’m super attracted to porn that involves dominance and submission, and maybe even some rough sex, can I still be a feminist while thinking this is hot? How can gang bang scenes (and gang bangs in general) be empowering? Can the woman receiving all the D be in control?
