The online community of women who enjoy porn, particularly on forums like 'Chick Flix,' is a diverse and misunderstood group that deserves respect and recognition.
Deep dives
Overview of Porn Conventions
Porn conventions, like the Avian Adult Entertainment Expo held annually in Las Vegas, attract a large number of fans, with over 30,000 attendees. These events resemble Comic-Con, where fans can pay to meet and take photos with their favorite adult film stars. However, unlike Comic-Con, there are additional charges for activities like motorboating. The majority of attendees are middle-aged men, with a smaller percentage of younger men and women. Conversations at these conventions revolve around specific camgirls and porn production companies, creating a sense of community among participants.
The Unique Subculture of Women into Porn
A fascinating subculture of women who enjoy porn is found on the internet, particularly in forums like the subreddit 'Chick Flix.' This community is dedicated to sharing porn for women and is known for its power users who compile compilations of specific acts. These women with high libidos and unique interests are admired by some, but their preferences are often misunderstood. Despite the stereotypes, it is essential to recognize their presence and respect their choices as participants of diverse online communities.
Expos and Conventions where porn stars meet fans are liminal spaces where awkward interactions are the norm. It gets worse when Youtube content creators show up to "interview" the talent. Our guest is Spencer of the Those Good Old-Fashioned Values Podcast.
