I remember watching, IIRC, pornucopia with Katie Morgan. In one of the scenes she's talking about how mainstream pornography came to a start. The black and white silent-film clip showed is of a man stealing three women's clothes as they skinny dip and blackmails them demanding sex. They agree on condition that it's through a glory hole. He agrees and goes to do his thing. The girls grab a stray donkey off the beach and back it up against the glory hole.
I saw women exploiting a man for his stupidity when he's horny. I saw glory hole sex from like the 1910's. I saw beastiality and the debasement of the man.
You can still see all these things today in porn. Given that the internet basically created the Clothed-Female-Naked-Male genre, I'd contend that the author of the article really has no clue about porn.
For all the violence against women, there's equal amounts of violent porn against men. For every one debasing a woman, there's on debasing a man. For one humiliating a woman, there's one humiliating a man (I mean there's actually porn videos where there's a guy tied up and blind folded naked and a group of women laugh at his junk).
The Internet has done for porn what the printing press did for the written word. You went from only the elitist males in society being able to write a book to virtually anyone from any background being able to become world famous. I mean look at J.K. Rowlings backstory for when she wrote Harry Potter and you can hardly say she had any of the elitist connections of early writers. Similarly we've gone from only big studios producing porn, to anyone with a half-decent video camera... or even just a cell phone.

Do you have numbers on this? Because it is a quantitative claim you're making.
I did a quick xnxx search for "humiliated". It's 36 vids per page. The first page had one male victim and the rest female. The second page had seven male. The third page fourteen. I stopped at that.
So it doesn't look like true numerical parity. On the other hand, there is clearly enough of both that you could watch either exclusively and never run out. So they are both effectively infinite, which is kind of like being equal.
This is more what I meant. I think my wording sounded way too much like I was saying there was a true parity between the two, which at present I don't think there is. However, given the quantity of pornography out there, I think it's nigh on impossible that a single user would ever grow bored of a preference.
I simply meant was that while some men get off on the humiliation/violence/etc of women there are also men who get off on the humiliation/violence/etc of men. I'd say the vast majority just get off on watching plain old sex, hence amateur porn being the biggest niche on the internet, which means that the vast majority who watch porn are likely watching it solely for the reason of being horny and they're watching that particular video because of "Oh she's hot and I'd want to do her".
I think quantifying debasement would run into big problems as it's entirely subjective to observational bias. I find more debasement in your average national commercials than I see in your average commercial or amateur pornography, which is what I find most disturbing about society.
