    You reminded me of when I noticed the sheer volume of professional straight porn that was written with the performers as step-siblings.

    I found it annoying but my guess is that it’s a quick/cheap attempt to broaden the appeal to as many as possible beyond the core “man and woman having sex” enjoyer demographic.

    And also that targeting men is effective like YouTube 😱 Thumbnails aimed at kids and the algorithm, and the success of titties helping garner a following. (albeit one that may be there for the “wrong” reasons)

      From what I heard about it, the issue was one of production quality.

      Tons of vanilla porn in low quality, but -fetish- porn was high quality.

      The family ties stuff is easy enough to ignore if you just don’t listen to the limited dialogue, so people would seek that out because it was better quality than vanilla, which led producers to think the fetish was the important part.
