Paying for anything gains access to higher quality.

I don't doubt that. But it begs the question; why should even the free porn be so formulaic and misogynistic?

As an aside, part of me wonders if it isn't a side effect of the internet as a medium. Hmm, more to come on that.

That kind of speculation aside, one can see easily the power dynamics of our society at play in the porn which is widely available.
