“Tumblr allowed us all, women especially, to curate our own visual sexual stimuli,” said Elle Chase, a Certified Sexual Educator who used to run a blog called Lady Cheeky. “There are no shortage of sites on the internet that feature adult content,” D’Onofrio wrote. Tumblr allowed women and non-binary people to be the architects of their own sexuality online, instead of objects. As of 2013, nearly 23,000 of Tumblr’s 200,000 most-visited blogs hosted free adult content. Unlike a massive vortex of pop-up pornography like Pornhub or YouPorn, Tumblr offered women a way to have a more selective and curated sexual experience.
