August 8 is International Female Orgasm Day, and we’re celebrating with an entire week dedicated to exploring the business and pleasure of porn.
Most people understandably associate the word “porn” with sexually explicit, super NSFW material. But nowadays, the word “porn” can be used to describe a magnitude of visually appealing content online.
From delicious-looking food porn to semi-gross pimple popping porn, the internet is full of exciting (and extremely safe for work) porn to marvel over.
In honor of Mashable’s “Porn Week” we decided to round up some of the best safe for work porn the internet has to offer. So next time you’re looking for some gorgeous, wholesome content to gaze at, let this list help point you in the right direction.
Remember: You can always check Reddit’s r/sfwpornnetwork landing page to scope out the site’s SFW porn suggestions. But if you’re looking for more specific SFW porn genres and accounts to follow, here are some of our favorites.

2. Book porn

3. Home and architecture porn
If you’re an architect or interior design buff, love scouring sites like Zillow and StreetEasy in your spare time, or binge-watch Selling Sunset for the expensive homes instead of the drama, then house porn was made for you.
In addition to real estate sites that let you browse spaces that are up for sale, you can check out subreddits dedicated to room porn, city porn, architecture porn, rural porn, house porn, and cabin porn. You can also search for hashtags and accounts related to any of these categories, such as cabin porn, on social media for more content. And YouTube is a great place to find more specific home porn, such as minimalist room tours or abandoned mansion videos.

There are a bunch of subreddits that highlight earth, botanical, water, sky, and weather porn. You can also search for seasonal porn, like snow falling videos and foliage timelapses. And don’t sleep on wildlife streams and marine life cams.

5. Food porn
One of the most common and popular alternative porns is delicious-looking, drool-worthy food porn. It’s hard to scroll through Instagram or Facebook timelines without seeing a cooking timelapse or photo of a beautiful dish with restaurant tags or recipe links in the bio. If you like what you see, you can seek out a whole bunch of other food-related internet marvels, too.
There’s cookie and cake decorating videos, pancake art, spice rack organization tours, ice cream rolling, and a whole world of cheese melting, pulling, and sculpting videos just waiting to be discovered. The possibilities are endless. Just choose your favorite foods and get searching.

6. ASMR
If you’re looking for some SFW audio porn, there’s an expansive ASMR library at your fingertips. Though ASMR erotica exists and some feel that all autonomous sensory meridian response videos are inherently sexual, many who partake in the popular trend use it as a way to relax. There are millions of ASMR videos on YouTube, which you can search based on sound preferences, but here are a few suggestions to browse through.

Another safe for work porn genre (that’s understandably not for everyone) is super gross yet super satisfying videos, such as pimple popping, powerwashing, and pumpkin carving.

9. The wholesome corner of Pornhub
Though Pornhub is full of nudity and sexually explicit porn, the website also offers monthly highlights of the top rated SFW videos. Our favorite? Pornhub’s most wholesome star, Ryan Creamer, who posts extremely pure videos of him tucking his viewers in and bringing them some Tums.
You can read our full “Porn Week” interview with Ryan here, and then check out some of his stuff for yourself. (It’s worth noting that if you venture onto Pornhub — no matter what your intentions are — you’re almost surely going to see some actual NSFW videos pop up on your feed.)
So there you have it, folks. We hope you’ve enjoyed this intro into the wonderful world of online, SFW porn. Keep browsing for more wholesome, G-rated content, and don’t stop until you’re satisfied.
