History
Sssh.com is a women’s porn and erotica site that features original HD erotic movies, Original Novels, Audio Plays, Radio Station, VR World, live events and more. The site is run by women for a female audience. The sites content including its movies have all been inspired by its member, via the sites survey, which has been continually running for seventeen years.
The focus of Sssh.com is on chemistry and mutual pleasure, with women in strong character roles taking control of their own pleasure. Founder Angie Rowntree said, “I launched Sssh.com in 1999, for a very simple reason: When I looked around the web at all the different porn sites, and looked around the adult video market at all the different titles and series, I didn’t see much which would appeal to women.”
At the 2013 Oscars, female nominees were given a free one-year VIP membership to the site as part of a gift bag.
