things going on here.
The first is that it's like all pornography in the sense that it gives you insight into something you're probably not seeing very often.
So unless you're actually in a lesbian relationship, you're probably not seeing much lesbian content, certainly not much lesbian sexual displays.
So the material is arousing because it's something you're not used to seeing.
Even in mainstream film and television, it's still quite rare.
I think another aspect of this, though, is also we've all been culturally conditioned to find women's bodies sexy.
So that idea of men and women finding women sexy I think has a really, really long history.
We've all been taught, particularly if you have a look at sort of how even mainstream film and television is filmed, we're taught to look at women's bodies in a way that is appreciative.
We haven't really been doing that with men's bodies historically.
Then there's also one last explanation.
There's plenty more, but the one last one I'll talk about is also research seems to indicate women's sexuality is more fluid than men's and that there's actually women are capable of being aroused by more than men are and lab studies seem to
um seem to reiterate this now whether that's because of social conditioning or biology that it's really hard to hard to determine but there is the reality that women are just turned on by more things in practice than men are and that includes um lesbian displays as well
No, and I think this is just the reality that even if you look at mainstream film where that stuff on male gaze research really started,
Not all film, just because it's shot by a man, is objectifying.
And I think it's the same with pornography.
You'll know if you find it objectifying in the sense that you'll gravitate to certain kinds of material and find other stuff a turn off.
That said, it is important to highlight that historically we've tend...
The material we tend to think of as lesbian porn actually has specifically been produced for a heterosexual male audience.
So often when lesbians themselves are asked about what kind of porn you like, they tend not to say lesbian porn or they'll nominate mainstream lesbian porn as being a little bit not representative of their own lives and sort of stylized for a male gaze.
But that kind of thing has really changed now that lots more people are involved in the production of it.
