Links to Tens of Thousands of Legal Pornography Downloads

Some people claim that the Internet is for pornography. Other people claim that the Internet is for communication. They're both right: the Internet is for communicating pornography.

I've taken it upon myself to visit a number of websites on which individuals share pornography. I've spent a great deal of time perusing these sites, obtaining a wide variety of pornographic content. In this article, I'll review and compare some of the sites I've visited.

Note: all links in this article should be considered as not safe for work, though some are safe for work.


All but two of the sites I'll be discussing are imageboards. Imageboards are near-live conversations between many users, some providing content and others commentary. Many ancillary websites, such as rapidshare and megaupload, provide hosting for larger collections of content, which are linked from the imageboards.

4chan

The mother of all imageboards, 4chan's "Sexy Beautiful Women" board is a rapidly-changing mass of pornographic media. Though only five pages deep, the number of images and other media linked at any given time is impressive. If you see something you like, grab it quickly. Odds are that thread will be gone within 10 minutes.

Like all imageboard sites, the content comes from the users. That's not to say they're creating the pornography themselves, merely sharing pornography they've acquired from other sources. The content persists only so long as new content does not push it off the board. This process democratizes the popularity of pornography, similar to how digg users promote articles.

7chan

7chan hosts a variety of pornographic imageboards and has recently taken over for the inadequately hosted fapchan. While functionally very similar to 4chan, 7chan allows users to find and share pornography more specific to their tastes by providing fifteen individual boards.

While 7chan also sports a "Sexy Beautiful Women" board, they also provide a companion board for "Sexy Beautiful Men", as well as a variety of fetishes, comic styles, and even an erotic literature board.

12chan

What's the password? Hell if I know!

anonib

While 7chan provides a better categorization mechanism for pornography, anonib takes this one step further. The boards making up the site are also user-created and administered, thus fully democratizing the entire experience.

The pornographic boards are one NSFW click away from the main page. They're ordered with the most recently updated boards listed near the top. Even the boards themselves have sub-boards, which don't get as much traffic as the main boards. The variety of content is enormous. Rule 34 is alive and well over here.

YouPorn

This is the adult-themed answer to YouTube. Users upload videos, which other users watch, rate, and discuss. While most of the content doesn't seem to be user-generated, it's still a step towards bringing makers and consumers of porn closer together in a larger community of porn-interested people.

Stickam

While not explicitly a porn site, Stickam is a great place to see those "real live girls" you see advertised in so many banner ads but never manage to find even after clicking. It's a video-chatting site for anyone with a webcam. Find a girl with low self-confidence or something to prove and you'll get all manner of naked in no time flat. It's not uncommon for users of the aforementioned imageboards to raid stickam and post the results of their exploits for all to see.

Final Thoughts

I hope you found this article informative. If there are any other social pornography sites you feel should be included, post them in the comments and I'll add them after I've done some more research.

does it count as legal if you use a porn site password you got off irc?

As has been mentioned. (Editorial comment, probably won't work if this is posted, can't remember how that shit works.)

12chan is passworded because (apparently) it's child model / underage porn central, and has been closed down several times :

Session Start: Wed Jan 24 13:54:34 2007
Session Ident: #12chan
[13:54] * Now talking in #12chan
[13:54] * Topic is 'ATTN: 12CHAN IS CURRENTLY UNDER INTERPOL INVESTIGATION, YOUR PATIENCE IS APPRECIATED, ADMIN.�'
[13:54] * Set by dj_loev on Wed Jan 24 13:51:08
4chan /s/ is OK, but if you frequently browse The Board Which May Not Be Talked About then be aware that it's really only a matter of time till you see (mercifully thumbnailed) CP, one of the few ways of trolling the mods on a board with almost no rules.

7chan had a /jb/ (jailbait) board until recently, when the FBI were notified and took it (and several other sites hosted on the same provider) down. It still gets sporadically posted in other boards. Generally such material is fairly harmless and overall it's no worse than other major chans, but some of it is strictly speaking illegal (tits && < 18) under US law.

Anonib isn't intentionally pedo but has had very lax moderation in the past, leading to at least one board I know of having blatant CP on it for weeks and being closed due to FBI. Most of the boards are not publically indexed, hence you have to know the "secret" URL and this creates a climate where people think they can push the boundaries somewhat.

You're not going to get into trouble just for visiting these places, but it's something to be aware of.
