Out of curiosity, was it just because it's written, or for some other reason?

Because porn has to have live action actors, apparently, and be aimed at men. Women aren't dirty enough to like porn.

Although historical written pornography certainly exists, and is called pornography; but that was written mostly by and for men. So there.

It's a completely arbitrary definition. Just a handy way of defining the kind of material a lot of women get of to as "not real porn". Because modern women don't like porn, duh. So whatever they get off to isn't porn. It's a circular argument.

I've seen studies that say that gay porn websites often now have up to 40% female subscribers, so let's see how the definitions start to change.

gah, that sounds dumb.

I can see someone arguing about written v. visual porn (though I would disagree with them, if they claimed written porn wasn't "real" porn, but at least it is just a discussion about the media at that point). Saying it's not real porn because women don't like porn!!! is frustrating. Hell, I don't even watch porn at all (and very rarely read it, and even then usually out of curiosity if I do), and that still makes me mad.

Language is not a static thing and it is good that we use different terms to refer to text or illustrated sexual situations than we do for things involving live actors. The distinction isn't arbitrary.
