I've been wondering, though: how do you find, as a non-native speaker, reading porn? Do people ever throw in terms that you have absolutely no idea about, and that you can't exactly look up in a dictionary? I considered translating Russian fanfics (not to publish online or anything: just to help me along with the language while I was studying it) then realised that I couldn't exactly translate certain terms from the dictionary. In the end I gave up without trying--and, to be honest, my proficiency in the language wasn't anywhere near good enough to go about translating--but I am curious. :)
