Let’s be real — so much of the internet is porn. Past estimates suggest some 30 percent of the internet’s bandwidth is devoted to explicit content. With so much to chose from, where do you go for the very best porn? We have gathered a mix of different places that offer many different kinds of porn — because variety is the spice of life.
This isn’t an exhaustive list by any means, but it’s one that includes visual, audio, and written explicit content. Some of these sites can be viewed for free, while others are paid only. If you’re financially able, we highly recommend you pay for your porn. The people who make porn need to make a living — and clearly you’re benefiting from their labor! Sex work is work, but unfortunately, sex workers are more likely than others to face financial discrimination. As Mashable previously reported, banks and financial apps have shut down accounts held by adult content creators. But they provide a service, and should be able to make ends meet.
We’re also living in a moment where adult content is in danger. Project 2025, the conservative policy wishlist for Trump’s second term, calls for banning porn and imprisoning people who create it. Already, there’s a bill introduced by Republicans that would basically ban online porn, experts told Mashable. Age-verification laws, which are requirements to prove your age with something like a government ID or facial recognition scan, are enacted by around a third of states. They don’t really work (according to an early study and free speech experts), but they still restrict access to this content.
Okay, we’ll get off our soap box and onto what you’re really here for: the list. These links are all (obviously) NSFW and this is only content you should enjoy if you’re over 18. Alright, well then, here we go. Here are 10 porn resources for all the horny folks out there.
Considering Pornhub is literally one of the most visited websites in the world, this is pretty obvious. The biggest tube site there is, Pornhub is pretty much YouTube for porn videos. Whether it’s your favorite pornstar or amateur videos, hardcore or soft, chances are Pornhub has what you’re looking for — just endless amounts of sex videos.
Note that Pornhub may be blocked depending on which state you’re in. This is due to the above-mentioned age-verification laws. Mashable has guides on unblocking porn sites.
Tired of watching videos and looking for something new? It might be a time to give audio erotica a try. Dipsea is a good place to hit up if you’re just dipping a toe into audio porn. It’s an app that features a diverse and carefully curated selection of erotic stories. While you can do a free trial, it is a subscription service, which means you’re actually supporting the people behind the stories.
Mashable Trend Report: Coming Soon!
OK, xHamster is pretty similar to Pornhub if we’re being honest here. xHamster is, as the name suggests, another XXX site that’s chock full of free porn.
As Mashable’s Anna Iovine has covered in great detail, the website FrolicMe is aimed at providing porn actually aimed at women. That means the women featured in the porn are enthusiastically enjoying the sex in various idyllic settings.
“I want real chemistry, I want real connection, I want real intimacy,” Anna Richards, founder of the erotic site, told Mashable. “I want to show real sex as opposed to a performance.”
Bellesa is a self-described feminist porn site. It offers free, long clips from the creators themselves. While it may offer porn made by women, that doesn’t mean its offerings are only for women. These are scenes meant to get all kinds of people off.
You might have noticed that OnlyFans was suddenly everywhere during and after lockdown. Lots of famous, infamous, and everything-in-between people joined the cam site. Basically, it’s a website where you can directly support performers creating adult material.
ManyVids is a community-focused online platform that gives creators control of their content and actually pays them when their work gets viewed. Users can purchase videos, custom videos, livestreams and more. There is also a free selection of videos from creators as well.
Another repository of erotic stories, Mashable’s Iovine wrote that Quinn is effectively “the YouTube of audio porn.” On Quinn, you’ll find user-uploaded amateur audio erotica of all different varieties. In recent years, Quinn has also released original erotic stories featuring celebrity voices, like that of Andrew Scott.
Like OnlyFans, Fansly is a subscription-based platform for adult content creators to host their material. On this platform, creators can interact directly with fans. Fansly offers creators both free and paid subscription services.
If you love books and romance novels and also you’re kind of horny, then Literotica is the place for you. It’s written erotic materials that’ll help you get off.
