History Of Erotic Depictions
The history of erotic depictions includes paintings, sculpture, photographs, dramatic arts, music and writings that show scenes of a sexual nature throughout time. They have been created by nearly every civilization, ancient and modern. Early cultures often associated the sexual act with supernatural forces and thus their religion is intertwined with such depictions. In Asian countries such as India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Japan, Korea, and China, representations of sex and erotic art have specific spiritual meanings within native religions. The ancient Greeks and Romans produced much art and decoration of an erotic nature, much of it integrated with their religious beliefs and cultural practices. In more recent times, as communication technologies evolved, each new technique, such as printing, photography, motion pictures and computers, has been adapted to display and disseminate these depictions. Attitudes through history In early times, erotic depictions were often a subset o ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Erotica
Erotica is art, literature or photography that deals substantively with subject matter that is erotic, sexually stimulating or sexually arousing. Some critics regard pornography as a type of erotica, but many consider it to be different. Erotic art may use any artistic form to depict erotic content, including painting, sculpture, drama, film or music. Erotic literature and erotic photography have become genres in their own right. Erotica also exists in a number of subgenres including gay, lesbian, women's, monster, tentacle erotica and bondage erotica. The term ''erotica'' is derived from the feminine form of the ancient Greek adjective: (), from ()—words used to indicate lust, and sexual love. Curiosa are curiosities or rarities, especially unusual or erotic books. In the antiquarian book trade, pornographic works are often listed under "curiosa", "erotica" or " facetiae".

Golden Age Of Porn
The term "Golden Age of Porn", or "porno chic", refers to a 15-year period (1969–1984) in commercial American pornography, in which sexually explicit films experienced positive attention from mainstream cinemas, movie critics, and the general public. This American period, which subsequently spread internationally, and that began ''before'' the legalization of pornography in Denmark on July 1, 1969, started on June 12, 1969, with the theatrical release of the film ''Blue Movie'' directed by Andy Warhol, and, somewhat later, with the release of the 1970 film '' Mona the Virgin Nymph'' produced by Bill Osco. These films were the first adult erotic films depicting explicit sex to receive wide theatrical release in the United States. Both influenced the making of films such as 1972's '' Deep Throat'' starring Linda Lovelace and directed by Gerard Damiano, ''Behind the Green Door'' starring Marilyn Chambers and directed by the Mitchell brothers, 1973's '' The Devil in Miss Jo ...

Unsimulated Sex
In the film industry, unsimulated sex is the presentation of sex scenes in which actors genuinely perform the depicted sex acts, rather than simulating them. Although it is ubiquitous in films intended as pornographic, it is very uncommon in other films. At one time in the United States, such scenes were restricted by law and self-imposed industry standards such as the Motion Picture Production Code. Films showing explicit sexual activity were confined to privately distributed underground films, such as stag films or "porn loops". In the 1960s, social attitudes about sex began to shift, and sexually explicit films were decriminalized in many countries. With movies such as '' Blue Movie'' by Andy Warhol, mainstream movies began pushing the boundaries of what was presented on screen. Notable examples include two of the eight ''Bedside''-films and the six ''Zodiac''-films from the 1970s, all of which were produced in Denmark and had many pornographic sex scenes, but were nev ...

Virtual Reality Pornography
Virtual reality pornography (colloquially called VR porn) refers to pornography designed to be experienced through virtual reality technology. It typically involves immersive, interactive videos or simulations that users view using virtual reality headsets.

The content can range from pre-recorded videos to more interactive, computer-generated environments, sometimes incorporating haptic feedback devices for a multi-sensory experience. History The first VR porn experiences were filmed by VR Bangers. According to the statistics published on VRSelector, in 2020, in conjunction with virtual reality porn only 3.2% of users use sex toys (Teledildonics like Fleshlight products).
