It is NOT the lighting, or the production values, or the music, or the cameras used, or the editing techniques, or the pacing of the scenes, or the transition effects.....

....ALONE. Yes, all those things are contributing factors and help to enhance the REAL reasons this type of "porn" sells.

TOP 5 REASONS:

1. No anonymous, stunt-cock sex. The performers look like they actually know each other and haven't met 5 minutes before the Director said 'Action'. Believe it or not, having met your lover before you fuck them makes a wee differance in the sex.

2. No talent overexposure. The actresses (not the male talent; sorry guys but only twinks notice the dudes) have not been seen in a hundred hardcore, nasty fuck scenes. In other words, it would be extremely difficult for a Charley Chase or an India Summer (as just a couple examples, no offense meant) to "pull off" a MetArt scene because people have seen them everywhere doing everything.

3. The sex itself does not come across as your standard 3-position bang-a-thon. You know, almost every porn scene on Earth starts with a blowjob, maybe some pussy-licking in reciprication (tho often not), then reverse cowgirl, doggy and missionary, then a pop shot on the face (see below)....how original and thrilling! You can substitute spooning, cowgirl or pile-driving for any of the above "standard" positions but it's almost always three.

4. No Money Shot in the face. Okay, some Fellucia Blow and XArt blowjob scenes end with facials, but generally the "money shot" doesn't happen on a girl who's just recently dismounted some giant pecker pole like an Olympic gymnast.

5. No pain, lotsa gain. Most (again, not all) porn shot today looks like consensual rape, with the girl being hit, spat on, choked, spanked raw, held down as she's pounded endlessly - and of course she's supposed to "love it"! With sites like ErosExotica there's affection, caressing, loving gazes, sensual kissing, and the scariest emotion of all to the sex-addicted, drug-addicted narcissists who populate this Industry - intimacy.

But go ahead, PLEASE continue to not get it so that those of us who do can make a killing while the rest of the adult industry withers and dies. Pretty please?
