I think this is much more common in women than men.

Men are generally more visually driven in sexual arousal. Male sexual arousal is more strongly linked to novelty. New visuals = bigger dopamine spike. That makes genre hopping more rewarding, kind of like scrolling endlessly for “the next thing.”

Women, on the other hand, care more about context, story, emotional tone, and dynamics, so fewer genres can satisfy more deeply. Porn is also usually not treated as the primary masturbation aid by women as it is with men. Because of this, they watch porn less often and explore less genres when they do watch it. They usually just go back to the same genres that worked before.

Based on the science, your habits are very common among women. Don’t let the comments fool you into thinking you’re a weirdo, because you’re not. Most of the comments here are written by men, and therefore their answers reflect their habits. So you’re fine, and you’re not alone.

Define what you mean. There’s a pretty big difference between only watching a specific fetish and, for example, “ebony.”

For some reason it’s always been “Landlord vs. tenant late with the rent” for me. If it involves the phrase “Are you sure there’s no other way I can pay the rent” I’m in lol (btw… looking at the community guidelines in here your post might be more at home in Ask Lemmy NSFW).

My tastes have only slightly inched a direction, but nothing outwardly. A lot of my tastes are considered vanilla as hell.

HA

Hell no. I am not even interested in a single genre in one jerk session.

It’s a buffet, I sample almost everything.

No one likes everything at a buffet.

Yes, trying to wank through all of pornhub in alphabetical order but can never get past anal.

Jokes aside, my tastes have not changed much throughout my life.

Definitely not my case.

I think there a smaller list of things I’m not interested in than things that I am.

Does “amateur” count? Lol

There are ‘core’ things about sex and sexuality that have always turned me on and I always return to… but I ebb and flow a lot over the years and have sexual fads and experimentations in my private sexual experience of life, just as I do with my shared sexual experience with my partner.

I’m interested in a lot of things and have explored many new kinks over time, but I’ve always absolutely loved creampies (hence why I created and mod c/gaycreampie).

If you’re really only into one thing I think that just means you have low erotic plasticity. Nothing to worry about or feel ashamed of.

I’ve always enjoyed a bit of everything, but I’m sure you can extrapolate plenty from my username.

Depends how you define genre.

pretty much spent a long time circling in on what specifically that is, though
