I have a deep love and admiration for most porn. But that wasn’t always the case. Even as I started writing about smut, I was squarely isolated into the art-porn world. And while I gradually expanded my boundaries, there was one genre that never interested me: anal.
But today, gangbangs, double penetration, and simple anal porn scenes often rank among my favorites. How did that happen? My appreciation of anal porn was the result of deliberate effort and time studying the art.
My anal journey began in 2018 after ten years of writing about and curating pornography! I had just joined the writing staff at XCritic to write DVD reviews.
As a hardcore porn reviewer, I was certainly going to come face to face with loads of anal. But in order to write objectively, I needed to understand the art.
”In reverse-cowgirl, her pussy would open wide, forcing a deep pool of Gotti’s cum to gather as if her pussy were a goblet of the finest wine. I was hooked!”
I began to research anal scenes, setting time aside to focus on at least one anal performance per day.
In that time, I would alternate between semi-random selections and established award-winning performances. Essentially, I was trying to wrap my head around what constituted a great anal scene.
And then it clicked. I’ll never forget the moment I truly got it. It was a Leah Gotti scene for Vixen.
She was fucking Cristian Clay with Greg Lansky directing. An objectively perfect scene; it was full of passion, movement, and, most importantly, chemistry. And the sound design was on-point, with crisp slaps and smacks of kissing, sucking, and delectable fucking.
Progressing to penetration, I recall being awestricken by Gotti’s pussy as it flexed and blossomed to accept Clay’s substantial cock. After the first half, it was time for anal.
Clay fucked Gotti three ways: missionary, doggystyle, and reverse cowgirl. By then, I had already become fixated on Gotti’s aroused and wet pussy, and I can still picture her clit standing at attention.
I was staring into Gotti’s welcoming lips the very moment that Clay slipped his cock into her ass. And that’s when I saw it! Completely aroused, her entire vulva began to flex and sway rhythmically with each fuck. Her lips would contract and then open to the subtlest gape.
In doggy, I saw her clit dancing as it was pulled back behind its hood before proudly asserting itself, standing tall in all of her glory.
Then in reverse-cowgirl, her pussy would open wide, forcing a deep pool of Gotti’s cum to gather as if her pussy were a goblet of the finest wine. I was hooked!
The Initially Misunderstood Gift of Anal Porn
What a gift to unlock a whole new category of porn! There were so many scenes from my favorite performers that I had bypassed over the years.
Suddenly, I was discovering now classic content for the first time. I fell in love with Keisha Grey’s gangbangs, Alex Grey’s DP, Aidra Fox’s gangbangs and more.
My newfound interest even opened up performers like Asa Akira, Christy Mack, and Sasha Grey, many of which were simply too hardcore to my eye when they came out. Now, they rank among my favorites.
I still don’t love everything I see, and probably never will. There are plenty of extreme porn acts that are still lost on me. But, by training myself to be more open, I was able to diversify my pornographic input and find enjoyment in a wider variety of scenes and films.
Perhaps you have a porn genre that’s never fully understood. Try taking some time out to find the beauty in another side of the art. You just might walk away all the richer for it.
