For me, personally, I’ve found porn to be a super useful tool when exploring my sexuality. Not only has it allowed me to explore what I’m into from the comfort of my own space, but it’s also been a helpful tool for me to find new positions and ways of doing things with new people in exciting ways.
Ethical porn is a game-changer. Gone are the super performative vibes, the terribly written scripts and the blurred ethical lines. Hello, actual, real life sex. Done in an ethical way for both the porn stars and the viewers, ethical porn websites have changed my relationship with porn for the better.
So, in light of this, here are three ethical porn websites that centre around different types of sex and sexualities, for those of you lovers who are still figuring out what you like.
Because truthfully, the journey shouldn’t ever be over.
Bellesa
Bellesa is one of my favourite ethical porn websites. It’s porn “created by women, for women”, so it definitely has a focus on female pleasure. However, there is a lot of queer content on the site too.
However you identify, there is always room for exploration. Bellesa is a great place to start if you’re a femme who identifies as heterosexual, as there are heaps of heterosexual sex that plays out in a multitude of different ways that you may never have seen portrayed before.
Things like pegging, threesomes and BDSM are portrayed in a super ethical and open way, which for me, was new to see in porn. Plus, there’s heaps of WLW content too, which appeals to me as well.
Basically, Bellesa is a great place to start your ethical porn journey. And bonus, it’s free!
CrashPad
CrashPad describes itself as a hotbed of queer sexuality, and it’s not wrong! Like many ethical porn websites, you have to pay to watch full videos and see behind-the-scene interviews on CrashPad, but it’s worth it.
CrashPad videos are super amateur, home-movie vibes, but with experienced porn stars. They feel intimate and comfortable and the dialogue is really natural. They show real connections between people in the before-and-after video, where the couple talks about what they liked and how they feel about intimacy with the other person. Sometimes they even ask each other out! It’s super wholesome.
There’s a content warning that pops up anytime there is content that could be mistaken for something non-consensual, unethical, or may touch on trigger points. That way, you can opt in or out of a video before it’s really begun.
CrashPad celebrates queer sex in all forms. They have amazing representations of gender, race and desires. It’s really a perfect place to consume ethical sexy stuff while figuring out what you’re into.
QueerPorn
I mean, it’s all in the title really. QueerPorn.tv celebrates queer sex in all its glory.
From trans women to feminist porn stars to sex educators, it features people when they’re most “kinkiest, raunchiest, filthiest, rawest, most passionate, radical, and real.” Really, what more could you want?
QueerPorn is where all the best queer porn stars live, in sets and storylines that are more aesthetic and realistic. Whether you’re after something more intimate, passionate and dreamy or you just want all your kinky fantasies to come to life on screen, there’s something for you.
You have to pay for this ethical porn site, however, you can take a free tour to see if it’s up your alley first.
