Clearly over the years porn has gotten more graphic. Do you think this is good?
Also - do you wish porn was more graphic, less graphic or is good as is.
For me, i definitely think its a good thing. Could even handle it if porn was more explicit/graphic.

Sure, I like that the sex is now more explicit and lovingly documented. But I've found I have my limits. When I would check out Mike Adriano's stuff it felt less like watching porn and more like watching a gynecological exam. Not my thing.

Erm, how could it possibly get more graphic without venturing into illegal territory? I love porn but, boy, does it suffer from the law of diminishing returns.

Honestly, i am trying to limit my porn intake and eventually quit it altogether because it's fucked my psychological up in certain ways and what i am expecting from girls in real life sex. I do think the more graphic scenes are giving younger guys a false impression of how sex should be, so there's more cases of young women being abused during sex and doing stuff they're not comfortable with. Sometimes you just gotta know where the limit is tbh.

^ Or the more "graphic" sex is also changing the way women view sex and are more willing to have rougher sex.
Wait who am i kidding [:p)]

I think porn needs to be graphic for it to work at all. Because porn is sex for show. The viewer needs to see what the guy is doing with the lady, or else their sex becomes a private enjoyment for the lady and the guy but not for the viewer.
I'd say that porn still has some way to go in showing everything that the viewer might want to see. For example, you almost never see guys spread their lady's pussy-lips with the V of their fingers. It doesn't take much for a guy to reach his lady's pussy with his hand and flash it open with the V of his fingers once in a while. This is something graphic for the viewer to see, and it probably is enjoyable for the lady too. I know from my own experience that at least some ladies enjoy the feel of such pussy-stretching.
The only time when graphic sex doesn't work well is when it's not enjoyable for the lady so much that the viewer can see it. Porn sex needs to be as graphic as you can make it, as long as it's enjoyable for the lady. Because her not enjoying it is a turn off in itself. It defeats the whole purpose of being graphic, which is to turn on the viewer.

pornography wasn't sex but fantasies of an impossibly hospitable world

Ditto. Things are a lot better than the late 80s and 90s when meat shots dominated to such a degree that John Waters accurately described most porn as looking like open heart surgery rather than sex. Also have never liked some of the odder camera angle decisions, like blowjobs shot from below so we're looking at the guys balls and taint and just the women's chin.
The best directors mix it up with full body shots, close-ups and what have you. That can be just as sexy as you see the reactions, can see the woman's face and the flesh jiggling, etc.

Porn has gotten more visually explicit. What I mean is we are now given countless hours of bj and penetration shots where ass, pussy and dick are easily viewed. If you go back to the 80s you will find a lot less of these types of shots.
Just think - men in porn now shave their pubic hair so the penetration can be more easily seen.
