porn.com : Making Sense of Online Pornography Paperback / softback
Edited by Feona Attwood
Part of the Digital Formations series
Paperback / softback
Description
Pornography has always been central to debates about sex and emerging new media technologies.
Today, debate is increasingly focused on online pornographies.
This collection examines pornography’s significance as a focus of definition, debate, and myth; its development as a mainstream entertainment industry; and the emergence of the new economy of Porn 2.0, and of new types of porn labor and professionalism.
It looks at porn style behind the scenes of straight hardcore, in gay, lesbian, and queer pornographies, in shock sites, and in amateur erotica, and investigates the rise of the online porn fan community, the sex blogger, the erotic rate-me site and the visual cultures of swingers.
Treating these developments as part of a broader set of economic and cultural transformations, this book argues that new porn practices reveal much about contemporary and competing views of sex and the self, the real and the body, culture, and commerce.
