Exposure

  Chapter 17. Sexuality Through the Ages

  1. A star showcase is a title made up of a collection of new content, a diverse set of scenes with a particular performer “showcased” in each. Meet Bonnie Rotten (2012), for example, included Bonnie in two boy-girl scenes (one anal), an all-girl three-way with toys, and a boy-boy-girl double-penetration scene. Interview sequences with the star being showcased generally happen between each scene.

  Chapter 20. Coming Out Porno

  1. Do you know what a cum fart is? Put simply, it’s what may happen when a person who has just had anal sex starts moving around. Air inevitably gets into various bodily cavities during the process and must come out. Mix that expulsion with fluids that may have been introduced during the scene, and what you get is a squishy, noisy, but ultimately innocuous cum fart.
