Thought Nugget: Porn and Erotica

I think what bothers me about porn is that how faceless and clumsy it is. I dont think the concept of erotic fiction is flawed, though. How is blood and violence accepted entertainment, but not sex? Sex is natural, violence is not, and is far more a 'perversion' of our natural instincts than sex. But they both should be depicted because they both are in life.Honest, erudite,cutting and unpretentious storytellers would understand that all sorts of impulses fuel life, including sexual ones. I think the perverted, sadistic torture/rape can be born, not from sexual freedom, but from someone's who's erotic impulses and desires are repressed so much they manifest themselves in ugly, violent ways. The problem with most porn is more to do with simple untactful silliness, with their puerile noises, and how they seem to always be in elaborate positions that serve no other purpouse other than to give the camera a clear view- its not more pleasurable that way (im assuming) Obviously i dont know for sure, but I dont think anyone would have sex like that unless they were trying too hard (hoho)

Sex and erotic freedom is a mature matter that deserves to be catered to with respect and artistry. This is not so with ubiquitous internet porn, which would rather try and cater to angsty thirteen year old boys.
