Is genuine arousal more nuanced and difficult to spot than genuine discomfort and/or genuine degradation? Because most pirnography seems to trade in the latter.


Now that is an excellent question. I don't know if anyone has actually quantified all of the microexpressions associated with arousal vs. repulsion. There's no reason to intuit that there would be more of one than another.. but in the context of producing pornography, on a set, with relative strangers, under all of those lights etc I imagine it's more difficult to manifest and capture genuine arousal..
