Should "extreme" content be flagged in ADT as a separate content description? By "extreme" I mean violent content such as slapping, spitting, choking, gagging, fish-hooking, stepping, breast-slapping, and eating of (non-edible) panties. The occasional ass-slap in a scene wouldn't qualify as "extreme", but excessive ass-slapping to where you clearly see red marks would. The reason why I ask is that there have been several videos that have delved into this area and it probably would be helpful for the consumers (yes we are all pretty much consumers here) if this kind of content were to be flagged. Those who would eagerly look for this stuff would know what to look for, and those would not care for this stuff would also know to stay away from it. I've been looking up previous threads on this subject and the one line I constantly hear is "this stuff sells". I happen to disagree with that argument because there is no way for us to know whether or not it really sells if we don't differentiate it from the videos that don't have that content. Just SAYING that it sells is a meaningless cop-out. You have to have something to back it up. So I suggest we go ahead and put it to the test. What do you think? * MD James Edited by - mdjames on May 12 2007  [Link] |

How, then, would this categorization be accomplished? Finally, regarding your argument about whether or not it sells - seen any bisexual content in your 'straight' porn lately? I thought not. Companies may take a flier into uncharted territory but they aren't going to keep pushing unwanted content on the market - at least, not profitably.  [Link] |

Obviously we're watching these videos, we're noticing the content, maybe there can be an extra text box for any additional categories that should be included. I would also suggest adding an area in the forum as sort of an "appeal" if someone feels the wrong category was listed. If someone feels that a video was given the wrong category, they plead their case there. As for your other question, it's hard to say whether bisexual scenes were eliminated because of the marketplace or because the directors and talent decided on their own not to dabble further with it. I doubt too many adult studios engage in market research or have some kind of "Nielsen" system set up. I'm sure that most of us go by who's on the box cover and what the descriptions give. * MD James [Link] |
