Exotic as in a category filter of it's own. Same as asian, JAV etc. It's good to be able to find what you want but I don't think there's anything special about it.

I'm stuck to choose an answer here. I'm not sure if I'd say exotic, just different; for instance I quite like (east) Asian girls, but not specifically because they are 'exotic'; just because I do, in the same way that some folk might like big boobs or blondes.
So I guess the appeal of interracial sex is valid; but to class it as taboo is, I think, quite offensive. Either way, it's not something I specifically look for, or specifically avoid; in that way I guess it's just like any other sex.

Well asian or black girls maybe exotic for me... But I guess white girls may be also exotic for the African members :)
But "exotic" at least in not an offense such as "taboo" !!

I think it's a good question. Why not pause at this time and try to take stock of the labeling vote78 is asking us about.
I'm not sure about the extent to which the general community considers interracial sex as "taboo" any more. I'd think it is becoming less of an issue, but it hasn't stopped being one completely.
The term "exotic" is a hint about whose point of view is being served. It's a white person's point of view, don't you think? And non-whites are the "exotic" ones. Thus, that term is an almost subtle statement about which population of consumers is socially dominant, as those are the ones who choose the terms we use for things.
Then there's the business point of view, and that's all about generating a "buzz" in the mind of the consumer just because they've got the genitalia of two physically distinct varieties of homo sapiens together producing some pleasurable friction.
I can't remember whose "First Interracial!" I saw just recently. Big deal.

I chose that porn should be passed it because even in 2011 it still an issue. Whether we want to accept it or not. People are still racist. It's not always blantant racism but it's there. Just look at the Obama birth certificate problem. Do you think a white Obama President would have had that problem?
The reality is that if a female performer does IR then it's possible that she will alienate some of her fans. In return she can get many more for doing it but that's not guaranteed.

I think they should be past that foolishness, however IR relationships are to this day presented by most producers as something exotic and daring and exciting which to me has always sounded awfully racist even if it was not meant in a derogatory way.

I've never understand why interracial should be presented as "taboo" or "exotic," which sound like naïve terms left over from colonialism.
Hell, I don't even understand why the term "interracial" should be used, if you are judging porn by the color of the performers' skin (beyond the color of their tattoos) then I don't think the porn is to blame. But I do think love and lust can be great equalizers--libidos are surprisingly free of prejudice. : - )

It's a mix between taboo and exotic. Look at the way it's marketed. "My daughter's doing a n*gger" "Big black cocks in daddy's little angel"

I think the category is too inaccurate to be considered anything except taboo. For example, white person with Hispanic person is rarely labeled interracial. White person with Asian is rarely labeled interracial. The label doesn't seem to consistently come into play unless there is a black person in the scene. Don't know if it was the first black/white scene, but do know that Hustler had a black man with a white woman in the 70s. Surely the porn producers today don't think they're still creating a taboo with something that has been around over 30 years?
Of course, we are talking about the same industry that has a model listed as barely legal one week and mature the next.

haha... It's not that porn isn't past it but the porn buyers aren't past it if they can present it that way.

elonlybuster hit on exactly what I was getting at when I posed the question. It's the teasers like the ones he cited (and we all still commonly see) which demonstrate that porn producers are still using a very outdated and offensive form of racism to market their product.
I would venture to say that most of us are beyond that kind of ignorance. But...there must still be a few who still respond to it, or so the producers percieve and that's why they keep presenting that way.
Personally, I like to see interracial sex in porn, not because of the racial element but more for the aesthetics of it. The contrast of dark and light skin, especially if it's two (or more) girls, is a beautiful thing to me. I don't think that makes me a racist and, if fact, shows that I am quite accepting about it, if I think about it at all.
Simply, I love to see naked bodies fucking, sucking, masturbating (the list goes on) no matter what color they are!

I am still baffled why sites think interracial must be a black man and a white woman. Surely the definition should not be that narrow. To answer the question, I don't think the taboo factor is still there anymore, but many seem to like the genre.
