Why does it say GEARPORN???

I mean i get that it allows u to post pictures of gear but why does it say PORN out of everything they could have choose

It's a term used for any hobbiest or enthusiast galleries of special or high end items they admire. It's pretty common to hear even on television these days. Food porn is used on the cooking network and travel networks often.

all of this is true, hell, whenever I invent a particularly awesome dish I whip out my phone and snap some amature food porn

GEAR:
  • Roland Juno-6
  • Gibson SG Standard
  • Vox AC30 Guitar Combo Amp

Yeah, it's colloquial. You can see it as an Instagram hashtag, or what Urban Dictionary has to say about it 😄

One of the definitions from dictionary.com:

television shows, articles, photographs, etc., thought to cater to an excessive, irresistible desire for or interest in something: a magazine filled with enticing food porn; an addiction to real-estate porn.

GEAR:
  • Fender Telecaster Custom Electric Guitar
  • Big Ear Pedals Woodcutter
  • HeadRush FRFR Go Portable Desktop Amplifier

if my piles of guitars photographed together aren't pornographic then I guess I have a warped sense of sexuality

GEAR:
  • Roland Juno-6
  • Gibson SG Standard
  • Vox AC30 Guitar Combo Amp

There used to be an actual online fetish site for... get this... Furniture Porn.

It would be glamour shots of a chair on top of a table, or a foot stool upside down and under one end of a love seat. It was the least offensive, but more confusing porn site ever.

I found some photos, but they aren't as fancy as this past site had.
