Bicycle Porn


I wasn't exactly sure what to expect when I came across this art project, but after seeing the trailer I must say that I'm intrigued.

Pornography evokes a lot of mixed ideas in my head. I mean, I'm definitely pro-sex, but porn (at least in its mainstream/popular forms) can be kind of disturbing, especially where issues of consent are concerned and it seems more like rape being caught on tape instead of one/two/many people getting off. I feel that porn often perpetuates heteronormative and misogynist ideas about what sex should look like and who should be having this kind of sex. I'm not saying that all pornography is like this, but that this is just how I've felt most of the times I've watched mainstream porn. How does anyone else feel?

In any case, I'm very curious to see how bicycle porn plays out! You can check out the trailer here if you're interested.

Warning: video contains bicycle pornography in its raw form :P
