Tracy Clark-Flory explores the largely untapped market and the main problem therein:
Physiologically, we respond strongly to videos of gay sex, lesbian sex, straight sex and even monkey sex, but our subjective arousal is a separate, though sometimes intersecting, issue. ... Every woman has a different definition of "porn for women" based on her own finicky desires. There might be some common requests -- like more kissing, more narrative -- but those things are highly subjective. Inevitably some women will complain that there's too much kissing and too much narrative -- which is how I've felt about most of the "porn for women" that I've seen. The debate continues because there isn't a single answer to the question -- but we so badly want there to be. It sure makes for a nice fantasy.
