I have a problem with people who expect all porn to be comfortable, certainly. I write horror porn, and part of that means that my stuff should be disturbing (and also hot). I get really tired of people writing in to tell me that my stories “bothered them” or that “they can’t get past the hardcore stuff” or tactlessly implying that my time would be better spent writing “something else” (i.e. stories which cater exclusively to their own fetishes, of course). That said, I have nothing against comfort porn as an idea–and showing the “positive” side of a negative fetish is a good way to temper it, and make it more appealing and understandable to readers who might usually be turned off by it. I use it all the time, actually, now that I’ve articulated the thought. So yeah, no problem with making porn comfortable for readers as a carrot on a stick to get them into a story and into a fetish, but expecting all stories to be comfortable? Fuck that bullshit, lol.
