The fact that the subject is humiliated/distressed/bothered doesn't make it not porn, though. That's what makes it "revenge." The supposed titillation of the audience is what makes it porn.

There are three parties/categories of people here, what was written previously that made a ridiculous or contradictory definition ignored the third one or mushed the second and third together.
