Obviously, differences in the relative 'hardness' of the porn and plotlines etc, etc are easy to draw. Ladies, please dont shout at me.

Anyway, as the premise marks out, all the women reported to prefer the more romantic and softer porn, though they were not particularly aroused by it - some women were actually completely unmoved by it though they claimed to have really enjoyed it. The real, marked physical reaction was noted on a pretty low grade, seedy representation of an older man taking a young girl in a barn or some such. Very graphic, very explicit, all possible penetration penetrated.

Thousands of years of inbred denial of their sexual selves has left its mark...

I have no idea what this will do to contribute, but it just seems relevant to me.
