Whether porn teaches 'worship' of the female body is doubtful, though I
suppose one could make a case for 'appreciation'. I think you
misunderstand the nature of the popular 'girl next door' or indeed
'reader's wives' genres. I would rather interpret them as a rejection
of bland airbrushed supermodels.
Of course, it should not be assumed either that what is desired in a
porn model is identical to what is desired in a sexual partner.
