Embedded Files
Montana, USA -- **This is more copy from my personal website. This time, a barrier to my erotic literature (which is not yet hosted on my personal site) took on a life of its own. I found myself remembering what it was like to be too young to be looking for adult content and felt that the simple, “You’re too young. Go away.” message was inadequate. It turned into a conversation with the youth about sexuality and how, they weren’t simply wrong for being curious but, there might be healthier ways to approach the desire they were discovering in themselves.
If I’ve learned anything from my own experiences with the internet, it’s that those “Are you over 18?” buttons aren’t really doing much to prevent anyone from accessing adult content. The kids are smarter than most of the adults in the tech space. So, instead of outright scolding them, I chose a different approach. I’m curious about your thoughts. Please, leave a comment if you have an opinion.**

By following any link from this page you consent that you are of legal age to consume adult content.
There's no rush. Maturity is earned slowly. You'll know when you're really ready.It won't align with some books, magazine articles, or conventions at all times. It will be your own true to life experience. You are not wrong for pursuing interests, potentially, running amock in your thought process. It truly is natural. However, in your bliss, you are scientifically blind to the ever present danger to you in that, sex is not something you find. It is something for consenting adults to experience, celebrate, and engage in, in order to lend emotional significance to a completely unique human experience.
Romance and Intimacy are strong drivers of the most passionate elements of Aphrodite's arts and the feminine sciences that is often overlooked in the modern content you possibly consume. Love is not the weakness. That fear of it, is. The commoditization of everything personal is also detrimental to our overall wellness but, especially with young adult civilians. Your body is more valuable than a following, a view count, or a dollar amount but, that's how the industry behaves.
You have never been afforded the luxury of witnessing consenting adults make love. It's either gasped at and hidden away from you, or its ritualized to submit women to their bodies, or it's sillified with parody and jokes to make sex seem like less than it is. All of which are designed to make you think that your body is undesirable.
That's why, once pornography became flooded with independent creators, the establishment couldn't keep pace with the demand for more intimacy, over the traditional approach to creating content.
That's why it all might still be confusing to you...and that's great!
If that's the case, you are definitely missing out on something much more important than sex.
Go do that.
If you find that you can't shake the urge to see it, trust me, I understand. I strongly suggest Erika Lust's website, ThePornConversation.com if you have any questions.
However, if you are authorized, you may proceed.

**I have since continued conversations that have inspired me to write more about this particular subject and would like to share more thoughts with you.
Pornography itself is not the enemy but, a tool. Human sexuality is life affirming and the reasons it can be pleasurable to witness is biological. Filming the act can be done with sensuality, class, and elegance.
However, in the wrong hands, tools can be weapons. It’s hyper-monetized and hyper marketed to maximize ROI, instead of pleasure, let alone expression. Just like every other “business” of art, it’s been corrupted for power and financial gain.
I understand that you believe “porn addiction” is real. It’s political theatre to rouse your other senses into voting a certain way, and it’s working.
No judgement.
However, just because the modern industry prioritizes “maximizing profit” over integrity of romance and sensuality, and that IT probably would be better off being shut down completely, doesn’t mean that, as a form of art, that erotica can’t be beautiful.
The most profane thing about the industry is their perversion of power, money, and the exploitation of women but, a woman’s sexuality itself is nothing to be ashamed of. I know it’s easier to just fight one big enemy with all out force but, I’m afraid this may more of a delicate repair of a broken system, instead.
Believe it or not, in your “crusade” against obscenity, your unlikely ally is the adult actress herself. She feels, mostly, the same way you do but, you can’t work together to solve the real problem without understanding this.
This is off topic of this post but, it feels relevant.
Writing poetry and diving deeper into my own understandings of intimacy and romance has led me down a path of discovery beyond my wildest dreams. I wanted to break into the world of erotic literature and found so much more. Now, I study sexual wellness, the psychology of erotica, divine feminine, and the mysticism of sensuality in this deeply personal journal.
