gen online

Access to adult content is effortless-protection from it shouldn't be. 

Before the internet, adult entertainment had gatekeepers. IDs, obscenity laws, and documented compliance protected consumers and creators. Adult content was made by-and for-adults.

Smart phones and social media erased these safeguards. Online engagement has grown, real-life circles have shrunk, and a cycle has emerged that deepens isolation, anxiety, and loneliness. In gen online, adult performer, director, and producer Lisa Ann shares how the industry has evolved and who we quietly become when we engage with it. Her nearly three decades of experience provides an insider's account of a business built on exposure, revealing the consequences for parties on both sides of the screen in the digital age.

To understand the future, we must first understand how we got here. For creators, consumers, and everyone in between, gen online replaces assumption with understanding and pulls back the curtain on today's adult entertainment industry.
