Curious George and his Ethnic Porn Collection. Today's announcement that Canada's new porn channel will feature 50% Canadian content, as American porn is 'tiring', leads to the inevitable question -- what makes 'Canadian porn'? What are the hallmarks of your country's porn? What are the traits of some other country's porn?

Post is meant as good-natured ribbing, so to speak, and not a vehicle for ethnic slurs, unless you know they can take it.

  • And with this, I go cruising for bannination...
  • Gives new meaning to the term "quota quickies."
  • what makes 'Canadian porn' They politely ask if their partners are dirty, dirty (but licensed) sex workers?
  • "Northern Peaks will be ... long-form documentaries, dramatic series, feature films, game shows, mini-series, sitcoms and made-for-TV movies". Sounds like Canadian pr0n does not involve much actual pr0n, then (eh?)
  • Lots of maple syrup.
  • If 50% of Canadian porn is going to be Canadian, I think the appropriate question is, top or bottom?
  • I hear Canadian pr0n is really, really roadside, man.
  • English porn involves, um...well...I say, terrible weather, what?
  • I welcome this new development - of course I have mukluks fetish, a fetish that has been shockingly under-served by the American porn producers. Bravo, Canucks!
  • Nine comments in and nobody has used the word 'beaver'. I admire your restraint.
  • Nine Ten comments in and nobody has used the word 'beaver' 'mounty'.
  • Bilingualism.
  • Think globally, f*** locally.
  • I'm just flummoxed by the statement that American porn is 'tiring'. Er...wouldn't that be a good thing? Wouldn't that mean you were getting your money's worth, so to speak?
  • when climaxing, the actors moan "Eh! Eh! Eh!" instead of "Ah! Ah! Ah!"
  • oh, and in French-Canadian porn, the men are shaved and the women aren't, n'est-ce pas?
  • Threads like this make me really wish we had a favorites system. I'm pretty sure quidnunc could deliver, if he were admin.
  • My standing committee would like to make a point of order.
  • Other countries porn? Well, the Germans seem to have a thing for girls pissing. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
  • "Moooommmm? You'd tell me if you had been in a German scheiße video, wouldn't you?"
  • UK porn - really bad headboards, and a habit of breaking the mood by saying sexy stuff in a Yorkshire accent.
  • Monkeyfilter: Are you offended, dear, as what I said about your drawers?
