Summary:
It has been brought to my attention that "Soft Porn" and "Hard Porn" already
have accepted definitions that do not match those I gave in my previous
posting. I seem to run into this rather often these days.
So, to avoid confusion, I've come up with different names that do a better
job of preserving the meanings in question (and also reflect my biases).
Type 3, involving the mechanics of sex, could be called "Sex Act Porn",
while type 4, the loathesome variety, could be called "Sadism Porn."
I'm gratified that this was pointed out to me, because it shows someone
is reading it.
