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

I would say there have always been hot girls in the industry, every era has its stars. It is how well they are shot that ultimately makes the difference.

Is there anything more beautiful and erotic in the world than a woman licking another woman's anus?

I said up until the *EARLY 90s*. I cannot stomach anything from about 1994 onwards with a few honourable exceptions here and there. In fairness, the early 2000s did see (an albeit minor) attempt to recapture the spirit, in particular I'm thinking of Nina's lesbian scene with Diana De Voe in Hotel O (2002), it took me a moment to realise it wasn't from 1988. Needless to say I mean that in a good way ;-)

Back in the 1990's, companies like RedLightDistrict among many others, produced good porn. Pierre Woodman ran Private and they also produced lots of high-quality stroke material.
As always, there was high quality fare, medium quality fare, and the usual crap.
There was a good combination of fresh young faces as well as the gals who were fan favorites who'd been around for awhile. I personally liked to see a favorite or two and a new face or two when I rented/purchased a video. 'Monica Sweetheart in the video? Rent that one for sure.'
Many of the gals looked like the girl next door. Some, certainly not everybody, liked ladies who looked more or less like the everyday woman seen on the streets.
Then came the tattoo's, the piercings, the petro-chemical hair, the boob jobs and other assorted plastic surgeries done at the butcher shop. Many porn gals looked like they just stepped off the strip club runway. IMHO, the attractiveness of the ladies took a turn for the worse. Gals like Tanner Mays, kind of cute the way she is now, would get boob jobs and mar their appearance. Some guys like smaller-breasted cuties the way they are, not looking like their nipples are inflation valves used to pump-up the tits. We all have examples of ladies we once liked to see who, after the transformation, became unattractive at best and grotesque at worst. I'm sure the Hells Angels motorcycle guy was delighted by this, but the average guy who likes what appears to be a college-aged cutie was discouraged.
I used to rent around a dozen videos a week and did so for close to 20 years. I bought used VHS tapes, some new ones, was given some, and accumulated quite a collection, more than 2500 VHS tapes and another 1000 or so DVD's. I probably bought around 150 videos/DVD's a year starting in the mid 1980's.
Almost everyday, I'd for into one of the mom and pop video stores looking for rentals or sales, I'd keep notes on what I saw that I liked and what I thought was worth a buy. I became an expert in knowing who to talk to and getting what I wanted, some new, some used. The guy who lives next door to me is Japanese and owns a video store. One day we talked and he was complaining that his adult rentals wasn't what he projected so I became his consultant and he's given me close to 500 DVD's for some computer work I did and recommendations I proposed and his rentals/sales increased 5x over. I also did that with a video store on the corner, so close to me I could hit their roof with a 5 iron from my front yard. They let me buy new videos wholesale and I used to buy Sineplex titles unseen, I knew their quality would be excellent.
Now, I rarely visit adult video sections, many of the mom and pop porn peddler places have gone belly-up and what fare I find isn't worth a rental. I used to rent around 500/year, I doubt it's even 50 now. I can't name a favorite American porn star, much of what I see is MILF or boring. So, here's one guy who watches an old collection of favorites rather than the new shit in the market. Apparently, I'm not alone.
This gal is what I'm talking about, sadly rare these days.

I couldn't disagree with you more. The women in porn right now are as hot as they've ever been, especially the new ones. I've been watching porn since the early 90s, cut my porn teeth on the likes of Tori Welles and Christy Canyon and Ashlyn Gere and Tiffany Millions and Nikki Dial and P.J. Sparx and Tina Tyler and Juli Ashton and Dyanna Lauren and Stephanie Swift and Patricia Kennedy and Kiss and Rebecca Bardoux and Stacey Valentine and Anna Malle and Diedre Holland and Sunny McKay and Sunset Thomas and Johnni Black and Jenna Jameson and Tiffany Mynx and Alisha Klass and Shane and Melissa Hill and Jill Kelly. Then came Monica Sweetheart and Taylor Rain and Tera Patrick and Vanda and Gauge and Ariana Jollee and Ashley Blue and Carmen Luvana and Belladonna. Now it's Lexi Belle and Tanner Mayes and London Keys and Tessa Taylor and Ashli Orion and Lindy Lane and Bailey Lane and Tia Cyrus and Tiffany Star and Haylee Heart.
The women who work in the porn business are the hottest women in the world. They still are. It never ends.

I believe porn of the heyday paid more attention to quality in many respects. It used to be mostly all about beautiful women, and now they'll take any girl willing. Probably due to a "demand" for reality in porn. They want "real" amateur looking girls, so really anyone who's average looking will do.
My theory anyway.
