The Black Alley Look, I’m often the first person to laud the advancement of porn tech in recent years. I mean, fuck! Who doesn’t like to slap a virtual reality headset on and get the closest thing to Angela White’s tits in your face as a man could ask for? But, at the same time, it’s important not to forget our porn roots.
Do you remember, back in the day, when we weren’t spoiled by the fast-paced adventures of porn PMVs, the intense visual stimulation of intensely detailed 4K definition smut, and the wild audio adventures of erotic ASMR that feel like some perverted little slut has her wet tongue firmly in your ear?
What’s your Digital Desire? Well, personally, I’ve got a few, but certain elements bring them all together. For one thing, I didn’t start a whole website to discuss my desire for good food or fast cars. But then, pretty girls without their clothes on figure into all of my main interests, so you can kind of guess where my heart lies on this particular topic. And well, based on the fact that you’re reading this on ThePornDude rather than any of the SFW internet media outlets, I’m guessing you’ve got similar cravings. It’s only natural. We’re hardwired to gawk at hotties all the goddamn time, which activates our breeding instincts and keeps the whole human race grinding along. So the next time your mom complains about your internet porn addiction and compulsive masturbation, tell her it’s so you don’t forget how to make her some grandkids someday. Well, the next time you need to feed those inborn desires, DigitalDesire.com might be precisely the place you need.
PlayboyPlus takes a comically stereotypical approach to bring a classic brand into the new millennium, slapping a Plus on the end when they could have just as easily tacked on a 2.0, a 4K, an Ultra, or maybe even a Hub. Whatever, though, because I’m less concerned about the name than what they’ve actually got to show me. This is the porn brand your grandpa grew up with, but the younger generations are less familiar with. Playboy has lost some of its luster in this world of hardcore Internet smut, but they’ve still got a reputation as purveyors of refined, classy nudes for fancy lads, intellectuals, and general perverts.
When I first checked out Sanktor, I wasn’t exactly sure what I was looking at. I saw a bunch of beautiful women flashing their tatas, posing in lingerie, and dancing like strippers on the tops of tables in swank luxury apartments. That isn’t an uncommon sight in my business, but I think what threw me is all the names of the models on the front page. I thought maybe this was an taboo site because they’ve all got the same last name as the joint: Alexandra Sanktor, Kris Sanktor, Elle Sanktor, and Scarlett Sanktor occupied the top row, and the list just kept going.
ALS Scan lays the hype on thick out on their tour page, calling themselves “The Ultimate in Modern Entertainment” and bragging about their roster of real girls next door. Their claim of ultimate modernity sticks out at me, as they’re an older site with an arguably old-school format. Whereas many big-budget new paysites immediately start hitting you with auto-playing montages of hardcore threesome crotch shots and buckets of sperm blasting all over the place, ALS Scan shows naked women posing in solo shoots or pairs. There’s an occasional dildo to be seen, but nobody’s actually having sex, at least not out front; this one’s more focused on the beauty of the nude female form than squishy, juicy tight penetration.
A video shot In The Crack is arguably a whole lot better than one shot from outside of that enticing fleshy crevasse. It isn’t fucking rocket science: close-up shots of damn near anything just look better than ones taken from afar. That’s why humanity has invested so much time, energy, and money building advanced telescopes to get better looks at all those celestial bodies floating out there in space instead of staring into the sky with our bare eyes. It’s why your sister takes selfies with the camera held close to her face instead of across the room, and it’s why the folks behind this next website will stick a camera right up in a broad’s business after she takes off her clothes. A good photographer focuses on the good stuff.
X-Art! I’m not what someone would consider an X Art fag. Hell, the only time I ever tried going to the museum, I ended up being dragged out by the police after rubbing one out to some classical nudes. What can I say? Paintings of fruit bowls and photographs of architecture bore the hell out of me, but naked ladies always seem to catch my attention. That’s why I was pretty happy to find out X-Art wasn’t your typical fine arts website.
X-Art.com has been around for a while now; the domain was registered way back in 2004 and the site launched several years later. The website is operated by some babe named Colette, a.k.a. colettexart, a.k.a. The Unicorn Princess. According to her profile on the site, she has nearly 140,000 followers. That jives pretty well with the site’s traffic numbers. Last month, they got 1.7 million visits.
Zishy has one of those nonsense brand names that feel right at home on an internet full of gibberish like Hulu, Skype, Etsy, Brazzers, and Venmo. I bet you immediately knew what each of those other sites sells the moment you read their names, though, right? It’s funny how goddamn baby talk can take on meaning if you repeat it enough. Well, Zishy aims to add to the online lexicon by defining the term at the very top of the screen: “photos that leave something to the imagination.”
Superbe Models sound fancy as hell, but maybe it’s just that extra E tacked onto the Superb. I’ll be honest, when I saw the site’s name and all the classy naked broads plastered all over the front page, I was sure this was going to be some kind of arty, highbrow art porn thing from France. It turns out I was only partly right; these refined ladies and gentlemen are peddling a style of erotica a bit more sophisticated than the average college bukkake scene, but they’re based out of Los Angeles, according to their Twitter account. They do seem to shoot around the world, though, and with a lot of Euro chicks.
Ah, Stasy Q founded by Said Energizer! Gentlemen, I greet you from the cockpit of my new BMW, which I’ve had outfitted with a stunning Gucci interior. I’m sipping a hundred-year-old Cognac and puffing on a Cohiba while a high-class escort, not a prostitute, sucks my balls dry. Just kidding. I’m actually jerking off at the library again, but I’ve got StasyQ.com pulled up so I feel like a really fancy motherfucker.
The front page of the sites says they offer “the new generation of erotic art”. That could mean a lot of different things to a lot of different people. About a million perverts a month are checking out what they’re selling, though, which is enough to catch the interest of a Porn Dude like me. It must be a niche site with numbers like that, but one that’s stuck it out since 2014, which ain’t always easy.
