It’s no secret that most people enjoy pornography when satisfying their basic human needs. And since sex is no longer taboo, we openly talk about our favorite genres, actors/actresses, and tags. However, we can’t deny that the industry is pretty much male-centric. This is not a dig or anything like that. It’s just a straight-up fact.
Most studies suggest that the primary audience for porn are men. Hence, most companies tend to produce content they think males will enjoy, not thinking about attracting the opposite sex. Sure, numerous productions target women and some niche kinks and fetishes, but they’re mostly indie and unknown. So, you can’t judge major studios for pursuing what they see as most lucrative.
Nevertheless, we think there’s more room for more female-orientated scenes. Not only do women crave porn (at least as much as men), but the industry can make even more money out of it. It’s like introducing Diet Coke for people who avoid sugar. Expanding your business and including a more diverse audience can be mutually beneficial.
Our article aims to talk about porn by women for both guys and gals. Yup, female porn doesn’t mean it’s only for girls. It can be interesting and refreshing for the salami-spanking audience too. Therefore, let’s talk about female porn production a bit more!

The Industry Is Dominated by Men
Although industry itself pays women better, we’re not here to talk about how much money actors and actresses make. Their salaries and numbers only contribute to what we’re trying to say. The whole industry is male-orientated. Companies look for girls and pay them better because they intend to sell their products to straight males.
However, behind the camera, it’s mostly guys. Producers and directors are men, making movies for other men. And that’s somewhat okay because it brings companies a huge profit knowing what their audience wants to see. But it doesn’t have to be that way since girls also enjoy seeing sex on screen.
Sure, you could say girls can satisfy their needs while watching current porn industry products, but it’s not quite like that. The thing is, most scenes are pure hetero-male-quick-wank-fantasies. Categories are also from a male point of view — MILF, Blonde, White, Ebony, etc.
The stories usually revolve around what your average Joe thinks as hot and kinky. It’s either some MILF trying to seduce a student or a naive young girl going for big dicks. However, in girls’ eyes, that’s not female-friendly at all. There’s a lack of erotic stories, interesting plots, twists, and turns, and that’s why we think it’s time for a change.
Porn Produced by Men
Simply put, porn is still seen as something only males enjoy. It’s for hetero guys looking to spill their load when feeling lonely. Hence, it’s mostly made to accommodate their simple, straight fantasies. Busty teachers being naughty, young schoolgirls looking for fun, or cheating girlfriends. It’s just the reality of porn videos.
In case you want to see something else, you either have to find some obscure feminist site with lo-fi production or read an erotic novel. And let’s face it, literotica isn’t quite the best option when you want to have a quickie with yourself. It’s just hard to find some quality content that suits female-friendly porn standards.
Sure, tube sites are full of lesbian sex. But, again, it’s all meant for guys more so than for lesbians themselves. A straight girl just wants to see a hot guy having intense moments with a girl they can associate with. They want something more than primal anal sex and casting couches.
We’ve already mentioned standard porn categories and how they suit male viewers, but directing is also meant for them. In most cases, shots resemble something a male partner would see while having sex. And yes, that can be satisfying for females too, but it gets pretty boring seeing it over and over again.

Why Female Produced Porn Is Better
Luckily, there are examples of how good female porn directors and producers can be. Indie studios and porn actresses themselves prove it time and time again with their takes on adult content. In short, their movies are way more interesting than your classic big studio stuff. From plots, actual acting, and unexpected twists, they offer something more.
In some ways, they can be pretty helpful for men to understand what their partners want in real-life. The reason is that female produced porn looks to replicate intimacy, intrigue, and romance more. It’s not solely about enormous dongs, gangbangs, and other everyday male fantasies.
On the other hand, they have actual stories behind them. In the beginning, they would usually follow tropes of some explicit “Sex and the City” spinoff, but they’ve managed to break that cliche with time. It’s no longer just a group of girlfriends telling each other how good their sex last night was. It’s smarter.
Anyway, the female porn model is gaining more traction on an annual basis. The thing is, guys also find watching the same old stuff boring. They enjoy a plot too, making them invest more into what they’re watching, boosting click-through rate on tube sites.
Porn for Everyone
Nevertheless, we feel like it’s important to mention how the adult industry is no longer the same. Not only are sex toys making an impact on the male population, but pornography and erotica are much more inclined to satisfy women. Back in the day, porn was one dimensional, only for horny teens with a boner. But nowadays, there’s much more variety from genres to production quality.
Seeing how everyone enjoys sex, it would be stupid not to deliver products for all sorts of people. Fetishes, kinks, fantasies, and genres are many, and the market is as lucrative as anything else in the world. However, the female porn market is the one we feel is still developing. It’s showing signs of progress in porn model terms, though.
Also, it’s fair to mention that porn isn’t only for straight people. LGBTQ+ content is also on the up in recent years. Just like straight females, gays and lesbians didn’t have it easy when it comes to enjoying sex on screen. Either way, those days are behind us, and porn is becoming more interesting for everyone looking to enjoy it.
