porno chic

The term "porno chic" was first used in the early 1970s to describe the wave of pornographic movies like Behind the Green Door, Deep Throat, The Devil in Miss Jones, and Score that appeared in mainstream moviehouses of the United States for the first time. For a period of two or three years it was fashionable to watch and discuss such films. An influential five-page article about the movie Deep Throat in the New York Times Magazine in early 1973 used the phrase "porno chic" in the title and described the phenomenon. Actress Linda Lovelace once stated at that time that she believed that the porn industry would merge with the mainstream film industry.

During the era of porn chic, also known as "The Golden Age of Porn", adult film stars such as Linda Lovelace, Harry Reems, Marilyn Chambers, and John C. Holmes (a.k.a., "Johnny Wadd") became household names and much sought-out superstars. As the industry flourished, Mr. Holmes was cast as the first recurring porn character in the wildly popular "Johnny Wadd" film series, in which he played a world-wise detective.

More recently, "porno chic" or "porn chic" has been used to refer to the mainstreaming of pornography and the use of imagery from pornography in popular culture, such as advertising, music videos, movies and cable television.

See the work of British media researcher Brian McNair.
