There is a plethora of good erotic image blogs out there. What is most interesting, since this is nothing new, is that many of these blogs are being produced by women. These women admit on their blogs that they enjoy porn. That’s right, women enjoy erotic images too. What is fascinating about the internet is that it has allowed previously presumed notions about women and their sexuality to be debunked. The standard notion before the open communication of the internet existed, was that women were much more aural than visual, and enjoyed reading about sex and romance rather than seeing images of sex. This still may be true in a general sense, but it is becoming increasing clear through the anonymous online world that women are enticed by visual depictions of sex as well. Another previous notion was that all women needed emotional involvement to enjoy sex; I am sure this is true for many if not most women, but the vast number of blogs out there written by women who chronicle their casual sexual exploits is another nail in that ancient mythology. Female sexuality is much more fluid than traditional, Victorian inspired notions have lead us to believe.
What is most interesting with these blogs, however, is the quality of the erotica that women enjoy viewing. From what I have seen, although women enjoy things are just as explicit as men, they tend to view porn which is of a higher aesthetic quality. I find myself searching the blogs of primarily female porn consumers to find images which I think have deeper aesthetic qualities than your run of the mill porn. Plus, it is just a turn on to know what women enjoy sexually in these areas, that they too enjoy erotic images. It is as if many women enjoy graphic and explicit porn, just as much as men do, they just don’t enjoy crudely made porn.
Here are a few examples of what I would consider good erotic photography. Why are they good? There is an artistic component to them. They are not merely images of people fucking for the sake of selling a video or web site, but rather images created by a photographer with a view towards expressing something that is pleasing and beautiful, something that also reflects the deeper elements of sexuality. The lighting is good, the beauty of the body highlighted, the mystery of an elusive eroticism captured.
For instance, this first image expresses well the beauty of a woman’s back and ass. It is always beautiful as well as enticing to see the soft yet subtle curves of a woman’s back leading down to her ass. The position of the man’s hands only heighten this even more. His lower hand seems to be about to explore her most secret regions, something which I am most fond of doing with a woman as well. The image is beautiful, but also sensual without being too explicit.
The second image is more explicit, yet still maintains some sort of mystery. We don’t see her whole body, but we see the man’s back, which would be pleasing to the female spectators. Their kiss is tender, but since they are both naked, we know that a deeper and hotter sexuality is probably about to happen, or perhaps has already happened. We really don’t know, which lets our imagination wander, and the use of the imagination is always a great stimulate in eroticism.
Finally, this image is the most explicit. Notice however there is nothing really shown and yet it is still hot. I particularly like the hidden yet still pleasurable expression on her face, as well as the way her panties are curled up around her calves. He is pleasuring her in ways that I enjoy pleasuring a woman as well. And women enjoy receiving such pleasures…
Erotic art has been around since the beginning of time. These images are just a few drops in the vast sea of erotica that now exists online. They are quite mild compared to some other, more graphic and yet still artistic expressions of sex and eroticism, images which are often gladly posted by women. Some would call these images I just posted porn. To some such images are a grave sin. Some would enjoy calling the morality police to destroy them. To me they are simply good, tasteful and artistic depictions of our human sexuality.
