Hey, you know what they say say, if you’re losing an argument, shout “racist…”
Oh, wait… that tactic didn’t work, either; I’d forgotten I already shot it down.
Do we have enough false equivalencies, what-about-isms, and derailment attempts for a BINGO yet?

I dunno about the legality. I have also seen US produced porn from the silent era as well. The US ones had a thing for women peeing which I have been unable to find a reason for. Both the French and US stuff was suprisingly not much different from the bog standard porn of the 70s for the most part. Some of the French stuff was good with costumes and sets but from what I understand they would sneak in after normal production and borrow the sets.

Another most excellent point; and a discussion well worth having, methinks… but a separate one from the actual topic at hand, which is diversity (or the lack thereof) in mainstream porn currently.

I just searched “Hawaiian” on pornhub and it’s more than half white women. I then searched “black” and it’s… wait for it… more than half white women.
Do you get it yet?

Likewise, a search for “lesbians” on that same exact site will invariably still produce results with a large percentage of White hetero male on female interaction.

As a white cisgender male I always find it amusing. It’s making fun of the pathetic crybabies (e.g. incels, MRAs, white nationalists) who think privileged people like me are somehow being oppressed in America because of our skin colour or gender.
I’d suggest you consider the intersection of markets, broad audience demographics, and the stubborn problem of institutional racism. Porn is an industry, after all, and it makes sense that American producers of heterosexual porn (still mostly white cisgender men) would tailor their product to appeal to the fantasies and sensibilities of the demographic majority of American porn consumers: white cisgender men.
Yes, there’s more diversity now in American porn due to the Internet distribution medium and lower barriers to entry, but it still runs up against those traditional driving factors again and again. For example, on any random American tube site the majority of male protagonists are white, and many of the videos featuring black men are presenting a cuckold fantasy aimed at … guess who.

You mean people are spoofing a popular keyword to artificially drum up results to their video? No way! Or Pornhub needs better programmers or video vetters to ensure some regulation adherence to categorization? Again, no way!! Are there any other possibilities outside your preferred narrative? Gadzooks, no way!!!

For some weird reason, I’m getting an @ notification for this, but clearly, you’ve @ed @anon15383236?
I remember that from yesterday. It happened because @Wanderfound initially @ed you, then changed it to me.

I gave into curiosity and watched it…
That was one of those films like Kids or Chains of Desire that I expect to stick with me for years to come.

This is true. This is also like saying “water is wet”. See Rule 37.
If anything the Internet has democratized porn. You may find that what you thought was some weird fetish or desire that you thought only you had actually has an entire community (or communities) built specifically to cater to that.

This is not about false positives or search engine optimization. It’s about trends in the industry, which are perfectly represented by the end content most available to the public, one example being widely heralded free porn sites like pornhub.
To add context to my earlier post, the majority of “black” search results involved skinny white women being titillated by a prodigiously equipped black man.
This is thrilling exactly because it used to be forbidden, to the extent black men were beaten and murdered in the streets for even looking or speaking to a white woman. AKA (KKK) White Male Patriarchy.

It’s almost as if things that happened in the past have consequences and repercussions which still greatly affect the present.

Well, as a historian, Melz, I can say with certainty, that’s almost entirely NOT true! /s
