See 'goon's example of "textile porn." Or countless other examples of "______ porn" as a shorthand for, "Material aimed at people who are big fans of _______ with no other artistic value beyond pandering to those people." It's a pretty common turn of phrase and just because there happens to be another product that could also be described as such (though rarely uses that exact terminology) doesn't mean it's not an apt use.

Except that there really is some thing called torture porn. As far as I know, there are no categories of sexually explicit films aimed specifically towards people with sexual fetishes for fabric or rollercoasters.

I wouldn't call slasher films "torture porn" any more than I would call Armageddon an astronomy documentary. :)

You obviously haven't seen my video collection :evil:

I can see your point. However, it is a linguistic battle already lost. I just searched "torture porn" at Google and all 100 of the first 100 results are references to horror movies and none genuine torture porn. Even combining "torture porn" with BDSM finds a fair number that are still talking about horror movies when they use the phrase.

That's the drawback of being an extremely niche mostly underground marketplace. The mainstream isn't going to take any notice of linguistic priority when it comes time to hand out the new labels.

And I don't know about rollercoasters but there is porn out there where specific fabrics plays a key role. Particularly silk and velvet.

Go to the Extreme/Heavy Mods and Erotic Mods section of BMEZine.com to get a sense of what people are willing to enjoy doing to themselves.

Question is, how was the concept developed/dreamed up for the Octodog? :eek:
