The Hardcore Poll
Added 2025-02-08 21:22:27 +0000 UTCHey friends!
Today I wanted to ask the community at large about a potential shift in content. I've been making "Hard X" comics for a while now, but I'm beginning to tire of penises and "dirty talk." To that end, I'd like to embrace more comics that include a ton of nudity and sex as always, but maybe without the hardcore elements. Growing up I was a huge fan of cheesy Softcore flicks, and that's what I'm picturing here... Tons of hot people doing it, but no fluids, visible penetration or erect penises.
I won't lie, part of this move is due to the new American Presidential Administration's ties to Project 2025 that would love to outright ban pornography and jail anyone who posts it. I don't believe that would ever happen, but it's a direct threat to my livelyhood and I need to take the threat somewhat seriously.
So, how would you feel about ditching the X and embracing the M?

I like the explicit stuff, frankly. If it goes away entirely I’m not sure I would continue to subscribe, though I’ll always be a fan of your work.

2025-02-09 17:28:26 +0000 UTCI put 'Ditch' but I don't care. That part is of no interest to me either way, other than to laugh at how unrealistic it is. If it's there, I tend to block it out because it generally takes me out of the story with its ridiculousness. 'Dirty talk' is, I assume, what the characters say when having sex, and again, I generally find it a distraction, cliched and/or comical. I generally skip it or just make puns about what they say, so I wouldn't miss it if it were gone (but I am also technically gone, for now, so feel free to ignore me). I was always interested in the creativity of the TG premises and plots, character design and artwork, not the porn. I am more excited by a well-designed and presented character (and outfit, scene, pose) than nudity or sexual acts.

2025-02-09 08:49:00 +0000 UTCI just like your work, my imagination doesn't need to see them because you fill in the rest of the blanks for me.

2025-02-09 03:49:02 +0000 UTCI've always been keen on your art because of the inclusion of intersex related content

2025-02-09 00:38:30 +0000 UTCI’d say do it more on a situational basis. If something NEEDS to be shown, then show it, Otherwise implied works just fine.

2025-02-08 23:04:09 +0000 UTCDo what the story requires is the best advice. That said, fewer dick shots would mean more story to my way of thinking.

2025-02-08 22:08:29 +0000 UTCI don’t really have a strong preference either. I will say though, less X rated stuff can be just as good if not better if the story is done right. Some of my favorite works of your’s don’t have the most explicit sex, but really have the characters embrace their circumstances and give up their old realities.

2025-02-08 22:00:26 +0000 UTCFurther clarification, don't care at all about 'dirty talk' feels akward a lot of the time anyway. Main thing I'm interested in is a former guy now cute girl having full on penatrive sex with a guy. And if that's not shown at all then it feels dissapointing, doesn't need to be all dick closeup shots all the time, but if it's not shown even once it feels like it's missing something.

2025-02-08 21:43:16 +0000 UTClet me clarify that with ' if it went away entirely ' would likely stick around if it wasn't just a blanket application to everything, but a project by project decision. and honestly couldn't say for certain how more 'M' rated stuff would actually be of interest without an example. but still would be sad if all X went away entirely for everything

2025-02-08 21:30:41 +0000 UTCI don’t really care either way, but could comics really be considered hard porn? I enjoyed your work loving my wife’s twin and Max Powers. Thanks for sharing

2025-02-08 21:26:26 +0000 UTCHonestly? I don't mind admitting that the Hard X is what I'm interested in. Do what works best for you! but I'd be much less interested in it sticking around if it went away.
