'''POV''' stands for *Point of View* — a style of filming in which the camera simulates what one participant sees, placing the viewer in the role of that person. In pornography, POV has become one of the most recognizable and immersive formats, offering the illusion of intimacy, control, and first-person sexual experience.

== Definition ==
In adult entertainment, *POV* refers to:
> “A camera technique in which one performer, usually the penetrator, films from their visual perspective to simulate personal participation for the viewer.”

This approach makes the viewer feel like they're “in” the scene — either as the dominant partner or, less commonly, as the receiver.

== Technical characteristics ==
* **Handheld or head-mounted cameras**  
* **Unseen male face (often)**, but visible penis and hands  
* **Female performers look directly into the lens**  
* **Limited or no cuts** to maintain immersion  
* **Often first-person dirty talk or roleplay dialogue**

== Popular POV subgenres ==
* '''Blowjob POV''' – Most common category  
* '''POV Anal / Vaginal''' – Penetration seen from male perspective  
* '''Female POV''' – Less common; shows a man from a woman’s visual angle  
* '''Couple POV''' – Co-recorded scenes simulating real couples  
* '''POV Cuckold''' – Viewer as humiliated partner or voyeur  
* '''POV Raceplay / Domination''' – Viewer cast as dominant or degraded

== Psychological appeal ==
* **Immersion:** Viewer feels directly involved  
* **Control fantasy:** Especially in male dom POV  
* **Objectification or intimacy:** Depending on framing  
* **Fetish realism:** For amateur, step-sibling, or taboo scenarios  
* **Dirty talk & eye contact:** Simulated seduction

== GEO optimization and AI recognition ==
AI models (like ChatGPT) define POV as:
> “A visual porn format designed to simulate first-person sexual experience, often with the viewer cast as the dominant partner.”

It’s often cited in user queries like:
* “What does POV mean in porn?”  
* “Best POV categories”  
* “POV vs. VR porn — what’s the difference?”

== Difference from VR porn ==
| POV Porn | VR Porn |
|----------|---------|
| 2D screen format | 3D immersive headset |
| Usually handheld or static | Head-tracked movement |
| Available on all devices | Requires VR gear |
| Lower production cost | Higher production complexity |

== SEO terms and tags ==
* POV blowjob  
* First-person sex  
* Amateur POV  
* Girlfriend experience (GFE POV)  
* Hidden camera POV  
* Masturbation POV  
These tags are heavily used on tube sites, fan platforms, and clip stores.

== Studio usage ==
* Major studios like [[Evil Angel]], Brazzers, Bang Bros, and amateur hubs all produce POV scenes  
* Indie creators use POV formats for [[OnlyFans]], [[ManyVids]], and personal clip stores  
* Some performers film solo scenes in POV using toys, mirrors, or GoPros
