Features essays on non-traditional issues in porn, including celebrity sex tapes, virtual sex, S&M, homosexual porn, and technology’s impact on the porn industry Features fascinating insights from psychologists, a lawyer, and an English professor, as well as industry insiders such as Dylan Ryder A fun, entertaining, and philosophically provocative approach to pornography, written for the general reader

Reviews for Porn - Philosophy for Everyone: How to Think With Kink

""I liked several of the papers, such as Woollard's ""Cheating with Jenna,"" which draws useful distinctions between cheating on one's partner and getting sexual enjoyment from porn, which makes a worthwhile point, and Roger Pipe's ""Something for Everyone,"" which provides a useful history of porn. Both of these articles, as many others in the book, could be useful in an undergraduate course."" (Metapsychology, February 2011)
