Someone reasonably famous said that porn is boring because all porn is propaganda and all propaganda is boring.
It took me a long time to figure out what they meant, but I think what they mean about porn being propaganda is that porn is by nature not true. It's a lie. It's idealized sex. I understand that, and I made a conscious choice to go with that.
In my porno stories i'm not going to stop for the guy to put on a condom or the woman to put in a diaphragm or use foam, and my characters are not going to get the clap or AIDS. I know all this is unrealistic and possibly even dangerous, but I also know that porn is fantasy and that's why we write it and that's why people read it.
As the Earl also pointed out, no one ever says "Ouch! Get off of my hair!" or "Get off, I can't breath!" or gets a cramp or just gets too tired to care whether they reached the ecstatic heights of orgasmic transcendence or not. It's propaganda, and i think we all know that.
But I do think often about putting a disclaimer at the head of my stories. But anyone who would read and believe a disclaimer is probably already smart enough to know this without my telling him. It's like those warnings they put on booze: Warning! May cause drunkenness. Like, Jeez! I never knew that[/]!
