Views On Lesbian Porn
Depictions of lesbianism have been popular in the visual arts, and especially in erotic art, since at least the time of ancient Rome. For much of the history of cinema and television, lesbianism was considered taboo, though since the 1960s it has increasingly become a theme in its own right. First used in softcore movies and erotic thrillers, depictions of lesbianism entered the mainstream in the 1980s. In pornography, depictions of lesbian sex form a popular subgenre, geared toward a mostly male heterosexual audience who, some studies have suggested, are aroused more by lesbian scenes than by heterosexual images.

Famous quotes containing the words views and/or lesbian:
“It is surely a matter of common observation that a man who knows no one thing intimately has no views worth hearing on things in general. The farmer philosophizes in terms of crops, soils, markets, and implements, the mechanic generalizes his experiences of wood and iron, the seaman reaches similar conclusions by his own special road; and if the scholar keeps pace with these it must be by an equally virile productivity.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
“When you take a light perspective, it’s easier to step back and relax when your child doesn’t walk until fifteen months, . . . is not interested in playing ball, wants to be a cheerleader, doesn’t want to be a cheerleader, has clothes strewn in the bedroom, has difficulty making friends, hates piano lessons, is awkward and shy, reads books while you are driving through the Grand Canyon, gets caught shoplifting, flunks Spanish, has orange and purple hair, or is lesbian or gay.”
—Charlotte Davis Kasl (20th century)
