It’s not hard to find porn online, but it is hard to find good porn online. The mainstream industry tends to produce a lot of wham-and-bam content, and while that might sell, there are a whole lot of people who don't find it all that appealing. Fortunately, the Internet is a huge space, and tucked away in its unseen corners is a lot of sexy stuff. Listed below are 7 places to look for porn that's a little more interesting.
It’s hard concentrating on two things at once, especially when one involves your clitoris. In attempts to document “the battle between the body and the mind,” NYC-based photographer Clayton Cubitt decided to film a series of women individually seated at a table with a book. When the camera begins recording, they introduce themselves and begin reading. Under the table, outside of the subject's control, an unseen assistant distracts them with a vibrator. The subjects stop reading when they're too distracted or fatigued to continue, at which point they restate their name and what they've just read.
It’s the best of nerd porn. Want to see that a woman is intelligent? Look to the passage she chose to read. Want to see that a woman is sexual? Look at her face as an invisible hand brings her to orgasm.
In the time since its 2012 launch, Cubitt’s work has been viewed over 45 million times in 200 countries.
If there was ever a marriage between cinematography and pornography, it was officiated by Antonio Da Silva. “The penis can take part in poetry,” he's said. Da Silva uses his camera to expose the explicit sexual experiences of gay men. He’s covered the areas of cruising and public sex, Internet hookups, performance and voyeurism. He also throws in a bit of cinematic flare. You’d be surprised how horny the image of a slow-growing erection can leave you.
One of the biggest critiques of mainstream porn is it’s too genitally focused. Beautiful Agony stands as a ”multimedia experiment ” to figure out just where eroticism in human imagery lies: the body or the face. They’re pushing for the latter.
To aid in the experiment, users submitted a series of videos showing their faces during orgasm. We’ve been conditioned to think that in order to get turned on by certain sex acts, we need to see the sex organs involved. Beautiful Agony proves that’s not always the case.
This blog was designed to provide women the necessary resources they need to have killer orgasms. That means tips, links, images, video, personal stories and anything else that can help clear up the confusion. Featured posts range from different ways to masturbate to how to tell if you're having an orgasm . The video section is full of material specifically selected on the basis of what women actually find hot. It’s one of the few places out there where the female gaze reigns supreme. “OT4G is a blog for horny girls everywhere,” the site claims. “It’s a place to get educated, reassured and maybe even turned on… and sometimes all three at once.” To date, the blog has over 150,000 followers.
Those into the BDSM scene might want to head this way. Like so many other sexual niches , this one originated in Japan. “Kinbaku” refers to Japanese rope bondage. The term is often used interchangeably with the word “Shibari.” To get a better sense of what it’s all about, it might make sense to take a look at the language. Shibari literally means “to bind.” Kinbaku means “tight binding.” Insiders describe the experience as a “power exchange” through the use of ropes. Here, you can explore the scene through a variety of free photos and videos.
One participant provided a description of the experience, writing, “I smell the ropes before I feel them, the smell of bondage, submission, suffering, ecstasy. Then those telltale sounds… the rope being hit on the mat, being unwound, ready to be used. I wait silently, anticipating that first moment. Then his hands are on me, holding me in place while he begins to envelop me, the ropes an extension of him.”
The knots are elaborate and impressive. While the experience is largely erotic, there’s something extremely aesthetic about it as well.
Arousal isn’t limited to vision. When it comes to sex, hearing what goes on can be just as exciting as seeing it. This platform provides visitors with an audio-based erotic experience. The clips range from masturbation sessions, partnered sex, jerk-off instructions, dirty talk and more. It’s a little bit like listening to neighbors have sex, but in a world where you can choose what they sound like, what they say and how long they last.
They claim you can find “real, natural and ethical representations of female pleasure” on this site. These guys aren’t only interested in documenting the oft-overlooked female orgasm; they want to study it. They want to master it. Viewers can enjoy a series of solo (and sometimes partnered) masturbation sessions to get a better sense of what a female orgasm looks like and how to achieve it.

The best porn to watch is porn you pay for , obviously. Just think of the benefits: You don't get inundated with ads for penis enlargement pills that don't work; you don't have the temptation to click those virus-y links promising a beautiful woman is 0.6 miles away and horny for you, specifically.
But the biggest reason paid porn is the best porn is that it supports your favorite performers, who are more often than not underpaid and overworked.
"We pay to stream movies, TV shows, and videos games and the folks who work in those industries don’t even have to think about keeping their sexual health in check in order to do their jobs," Cory B ., a kink coach and sex educator, tells Men's Health . “Porn stars work HARD, and the least we can do as a society is to compensate them for their labor that has brought us so many orgasms.”
Ayesha Hussain, co-creator of Pass The Porn and founder of The Violet , also urges consumers to seek out "responsible porn." That means supporting production houses that strive "toward ethical business practices and spreading sex positivity," and practice "negotiation of scenes on screen, transparent and equitable pay, safety standards on set, and aftercare ."
Well, we've made it very easy for you to find the best porn you could possibly watch. At the end of 2019, Pornhub released its annual Year in Review , which revealed the most-searched porn categories in the United States and worldwide. We asked the folks over at Adam & Eve , one of the world's largest sex toy retailers, to recommend some pornos from those top-searched categories in the U.S., including, but not limited to: lesbian; MILF; anal; and big butt. (We also had them answer why these videos are their favorites in the respective categories. It turns out, The Big Ass Anal Exxxtravaganza 3 is far better than Anal Models 4.)
Here are some recommendations from Adam & Eve and Hussain: aka, a list of the best porn you could possibly watch.

Whether you’re trying to get in the mood ahead of a sexy date or are settling in for a little solo sex sesh , there's nothing wrong with flipping on a bit of porn. It’s hot, it can take you from desert dry to waterfall wet in a matter of minutes, and it’s super readily available.
So readily available, in fact, that sorting the safe porn sites from the predatory (and grimy) ones isn’t as simple as typing “porn” into your search browser. Do that and you’ll be bombarded with ads at best and phishing scams at worst.
But “safe” doesn’t just mean safe for you—it means safe for the creators as well. Enter: ethical porn. “ Ethical porn is made with open communication, honesty, respect, and transparency,” explains Angie Rowntree, the founder and director of the sex-positive, safe porn site Sssh.com . “Everything you see in the scene has been negotiated and consented to by all parties before the cameras are ever rolling.” Rowntree also adds that ethical porn means fair pay for performers, secure sets with food and water, performers’ ability to choose scene partners, and consent checks throughout shooting.
Clearly, ethical porn is the way to go. But what fans often find is that the ethically made stuff isn’t free. A bummer, sure, but in reality, this is a good thing. “Like any other form of entertainment, porn costs money to make,” Rowntree says. “Why do movies at a theater cost money? Ethical porn pays everyone (cast and crew) and has production costs.” And FWIW, watching porn that you know was created safely just feels better.
The very good news is that there are a lotta different types of ethical porn out there to fulfill any fantasy or highlight any kink . And once you find something you like, Rowntree stresses the benefits of watching. “Porn is known for leading people to have orgasms ; and regular orgasms have various medical benefits such as reduced stress, improved immunity, pain reduction (including period cramp relief), stronger pelvic floor muscles, better sleep, and so forth.” Plus, watching porn is a way to engage in a type of sex you might not want to/be ready to partake in IRL or just explore ideas to try with a partner.
Basically, watching safe porn is a win-win all around. You get that spicy content, the people who made it enthusiastically consented to the process, and it won’t crash your computer. And luckily for, well, just about everyone, there are tons of safe porn sites and apps out there you can feel good about ethically and physically. Read on for 17 of our faves that’ll get you off and get the creators paid. Literally love to see it!
Female-led, female-focused, ethically produced, and recommended by Rashida Jones ? It’s clear Sssh.com checks off all the boxes. The site’s sex-positive films, photos, and stories have been winning awards since 1999 thanks to its feminist-centered content. "Sssh.com is and always has been a very collaborative studio," Rowntree says. "We not only discuss and negotiate the sex to everyone’s comfort, but we also listen to our performers’ input as far as the creative direction of their characters, which greatly enhances the storylines and how the sex is portrayed in our films."
Plus, all of the materials are geared toward women and couples (and the site isn't at all spammy), so you can watch/read stress-free knowing you won’t get viruses and you’re supporting the creators of the content.
Cost: $4.95/two days, $19.95/one-month membership, $54.95/three-month membership, $99.95/one-year membership
In case you’re new to audio porn , this is a great option if you’re not a fan of visuals or if you want to listen to something sexy while you’re like, going for a jog or washing the dishes. AudioDesires provides stories—some are read and some are narrated situations—for women and couples. The best part is that the library is huuuuge and it’s full of different voice actors and different scenarios so you can easily mix things up.
One of the best features, though, is the "guided masturbation" option. There is where you’re literally told where to touch yourself and what to do until you’re brought to orgasm. It’s hella erotic, and is a great tool if you want to learn more about your body or simply try something new!
Cost: Free to join and four free stories per month; $7.99/month or $59.88/year for premium membership
Launched in 2019, Quinn is a free audio porn site that aims to bring more arousal, pleasure, and sex into the mainstream porn culture by proving that there’s more to it than meets the eye—hence the audio aspect. The site has hundreds of audio stories from 50+ creators with content that’ll scratch whatever your itch is. From accents to age differences to “safe for work” options, it’d be hard not to find something that’ll turn you on. Plus, the site is entirely free to use with no ads or popups. You can create an account to save your favorite audios, but you can also listen without logging in for discreet and safe audio pleasure.
If you’re a fan of a variety of erotic materials, FrolicMe is about to become your go-to source. The female-founded site offers a diverse range of content including videos, erotic stories, erotic audio, photos, and even articles. The goal is for everything on the site to “play on erotic passion and desire,” and trust me, it delivers. Fresh content drops weekly so there’s always something new to explore. Also, the quality of the videos is extremely top-notch, so if you want your films to be more than just some shaky handheld footage, this is your place.
Cost: $6.25 for a week trial, $12.55 for a monthly subscription, $28.90 for a single month, $62.90 for a one-year subscription
There’s a lot to love about Bellesa . Not only do they showcase real, unscripted sex, but they also never include fake orgasms in their vids (yes, groundbreaking). Per Bellesa’s website, they believe “sexuality on the internet should depict women as we truly are—as subjects of pleasure, not objects of conquest.” All of their content (including porn videos, erotic stories, and articles) are ethically created and there’s a wide variety of free materials for anyone who doesn’t want to pay. That said, paying is totally the move since it gives you access to the giant library of content and exclusive videos.
Cost: Free; $9.99/month or $59.88/year for premium
PinkLabel.tv is like Netflix for indie porn, and this ethical, queer-owned, inclusive hub truly has something for everyone. The website describes it as a platform where “open-minded viewers will discover films spanning softcore to hardcore, plot to no plot, and depictions of many different kinds of sexual orientations and desires.” Plus, the site helps up-and-coming adult filmmakers with everything from production to testing to learning how to run a biz. You can either rent movies à la carte or subscribe as a PinkLabel PLUS member to get access to all the films and live stream events.
Cost: $9.99/month for a one-year subscription, $23.33/month for three months, $25 for one month
&Jane is a newly launched audio porn app that prioritizes “diversity, sophistication, and imagination,” per their website. All their content is told from the female perspective, which means you can listen to a variety of women retell sex stories and/or erotic tales from their POV—which is, like, goals for your voyeuristic fantasies. Oh, and there are zero advertisements to disrupt your you-time—plus, al
