The Sexerati History of Altporn
filed under: Erotic Elite, We Are The Sex Media by Lux Nightmare
Last fall, while on the set of “The Bi Apple,” waiting to shoot my cameo, I got into a conversation about the history of altporn.
“You were the first altporn site, right?” the boy shooting the behind-the-scenes footage asked me.

Here, for your consideration, is a brief timeline of altporn:
