Killer Clown Porn? No Worries; ALL Trends Become Porn Trends

by Calico Rudasill, Sssh.com – Porn For Women

For an industry filled with smart, creative people, the adult entertainment business is often a stunningly unoriginal place. To cite just one (very irritating) example, how many times have you heard about one porn company or another offering a job to someone who’s in the news, just because they’re in the news?

Well, no matter how many times you’ve heard it, you heard it again very recently, when an adult webcam company offered a job to Ken Bone, the public forum debate participant who captured America’s heart, only to turn out to be perhaps not quite as adorable as people initially thought.

The good news, if you can call it that, is because we already know porn is a medium in which virtually every idea imported from every other facet of life is inevitably co-opted and given the erotica treatment, we can rest easy knowing things like the (purported) killer clown porn trend are nothing more than fads, not mortal threats to civilization as we know it.

Searching: Not Actually The Same Thing As Finding

In its charmingly hyperventilating report about the “sick fetish” of killer clowns, the Daily Star cites some statistics it clearly considers alarming: Searches for clown porn are way up in the last year.

“The recent ‘Killer Clown’ craze has seen a rise in demand for clown pornography, featuring men and women dressing up for brutal dominatrix beatings,” the Star reports. “Searches for the bizarre fetish have soared by 213% as the craze has swept the globe.”

If you search the website referenced in the article for clown porn, you will indeed find several hundred videos, many of which were uploaded (let alone shot) before the killer clown fad kicked in, judging by the metadata associated with the scenes.

Compare this with the number of responses to a search with a more general and more established niche, though, and the clown porn craze is suddenly put in context; whereas my clown search yielded fewer than 800 videos (very few of which featured menacing clowns, by the way) a search for “Asian” brought back over 110,000 videos.

To be clear, I’m in no way saying the Daily Star should start running hyperbolic articles about the threat of Asian porn – although I must say, if I were going to combine any other fetish with clown porn it would definitely be Japanese rope bondage.

My point is just that as porn fads go, the killer clown porn trend has some catching up to do before it even reaches the level of Helicopter Man, much less comes into contention with MILFs, teens or even fart porn.

This Too Shall Pass

Back in about 2002, there came a time when it seemed like three-quarters of the porn being produced was so-called “reality porn,” with the proliferation of sites like MILFHunter, BangBus and their ilk. Predictably, every new reality TV genre quickly became a reality porn genre, leading to fake pornographic reality dating shows, porn makeovers and multiple Pimp My Ride parodies, which to be fair, were probably just about as “real” as the original.

If this killer clown porn trend is even real in the first place (of which I’m substantially less than convinced), its primary impact is going to be on the poor performers, producers and directors upon whom it falls to make the stuff. Either way, before too long, the internet will tire of killer clowns, just as it has already largely tired of the Slenderman, and before that, the Cinnamon Challenge, the Harlem Shake, planking and coming up with stupid shit to say about Chuck Norris.

Then again, killer clowns are nothing new, in either fiction or reality, so it’s possible there will be a small but resilient market for the porn version of the concept, much as there remains a market for “leaked” celebrity sex tapes, even years after the one Screech made should have permanently soured absolutely everyone on the entire genre.
