Pornography is usually a pretty taboo topic, especially when women share their thoughts about it — we can thank the long-held tradition of viewing sexual pleasure solely through the male gaze for that. However, these celebrity women are having a conversation about watching porn, and not only are they simply talking about it, but they’re also asserting that they downright enjoy it.
For adults who are able to separate the fantasy of porn from the reality of healthy sexual relationships, watching porn can be an enjoyable experience that adds a certain amount of spice to any sex life. For women, this is especially true of porn that prioritizes the female gaze. While most porn centers around male pleasure, there are several great sites to peruse for women-centered videos — we even listed some of them here.

She said, “You shouldn’t be getting to the porn conversations until well into the relationship, until you feel like you want to spice things up and discover more about each other and talk more about your taste.”
The burlesque star elaborated, “I once dated someone who asked, ‘What kind of porn do you like?’ Then I told him, and he was totally put off by it. If you’re going to go there, you have to decide that your fantasies are a safe space to go wherever you want.” She continued, “And just because you like watching a certain type of porn doesn’t mean you want to do it. And I think men, especially young men, can be quite insecure about those types of things.”
