This may be true (I don't know) about the changing of physical standards of appearance. But my criticsm was more about the way sexuality is portrayed in porn including formulaic attitudes of sexual response and stimulation for women. This is what I mean by McSexing or homogenizing sex in our culture. It may be just "entertainment" but it is also persuasive at the same time.

I totally agree as well.

The point yendu bwam and I had been stressing is that the producers of porn did not care what real women (like yourself) thought, or the impact on society and gender relations in general. The porn producers didn't care one way or another. They were not trying to achieve this, it was a side-effect of their pursuit of profit and readership. It got zero time on their calendars. They merely responded to what they knew lustful porn addicted men would continue to buy.

Yes, it results in McSexing or homogenizing sex in our culture but this was a result the porn producers weren't planning or striving towards. Their only goal(s)are profit, increase and lock-in marketshare (get more men addicted), and keep lowering society's moral standard, so their business model is free to grow.
