Why I'm Still Doing Porn in My Late 50s [NSFW]

So much admiration for Nina Hartley and all her positive contributions over the years. That she's doing this at 56 and speaks so well of it is definitely an interesting perspective to take in.

"A lot of decent, middle-age, middle-class married guys are parents, and it creeps them out to watch women who are their daughters' ages."


For two years I struggled with thinking, Could I be a feminist and want to take off my clothes? I came down the path that, yes, I could indeed be a feminist and take off my clothes because doing that was my choice. I was not being forced to or coerced to, and it was part of my sexual identity as an exhibitionist to do this.


That first quote definitely does apply for a lot of guys, though the prevailing "belief" is that guys only want to see young women.
