...for the past 10 years, this has become part of the younger generation.>Whilst in almost all modern porn’s you will see a plethora of silicone implant, tattoos, Shaved bottom, condoms, body piecing etc. This is not natural. I don't know about you, but I think the industry tries to promote this in order to make money on cosmetics not because they think the viewing public want to see all those things.>
What's natural is what you're used to seeing everyday. They're appealing to a younger generation. The older generation is more comfortable with the '70s stuff because that's what they can relate to.

> > > What's natural is what you're used to seeing everyday < < <Sorry, I cannot agree to that statement as I don't consider seeing completely naked men and women everyday to be natural (unless you live near a beach). That said, most of us wear cloth, and don't usually expose our private parts in public and there is no need to shave the bottom every day like the way we shave our leg and beard etc. I dare anyone to do an experiment and randomly select a few colleagues in the company you worked for and see if any of them is shaved down below. I bet there aren't many. Thus, unshaved is still considered normal in light of this experiment.
You did answer my question though, that is current porn viewers tend to like watching different stuff than what it used to be.
. . . lifestyle marketing, IMHO.Especially gay porn. The designer clothes, the fake tans, the gym and protein supplement muscles, the houses on the beach, the posh cars, the parties. Perfection has a big, big price tag. A lot of gay porn is essentially a commercial. Straight porn isn't quite as bad yet, but it's getting there. And personally, I find marketing-centric porn of any persuasion pretty boring.
If you read Savage Love or other sex advice columns targeting young people, it becomes pretty obvious that young people today (1) watch a lot of current porn, (2) think that real people should look and act like today's porn stars, and (3) suffer from a lot of sexual anxiety and self-image problems because they or their partners don't measure up to current porn standards. People my age (I'm 39) seem to be able to watch porn and enjoy having sex with normal people (not always simultaneously!), but I think the younger generation is having some trouble recognizing the difference between fantasy and reality. Maybe they'll wise up eventually.

Assuming your observations are valid, which I think they are, then the porn viewers (particular younger porn viewers) are being exploited by various marketing companies to the fullest. For example, why should they pay money to buy the porn’s and then being exposed to various marketing tools subconsciously without even know it. Some of the disgusting subconsciously marketed ideas are obviously body piercing, body building, designer cloths, pubic hair trimming, shaving in the lower anatomy etc.Classic porn such as the Swedish Erotica series, Taboo, Aunt peg, etc don't have any of these marketing hype subconsciously build into it. Just good old porn.
Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for the fantastic answer. I think you hit it on the nose about the life style marketing tactic. LOL ! Even I failed to see that in the beginning.Yes, its very sad that we can just sitting down and watch some quality porn, like Aunt Peg, etc, without getting polluted with all the marketing hype.
