I Know That Girl! How many times have you been watching porn and wished you could find a girl you know? Maybe you’ve actually done that before. I know it happens. Sometimes you see a comment under a video where someone says, “Hey, I went to high school with this girl! It’s cool to see she’s doing well.” That’s the dream. Finding a hot girl in porn that you actually know? Well, maybe not the dream. The absolute dream is actually having sex with her. But seeing her in porn is still a nice bonus.For me, one of the big reasons I like amateur porn is the chance to find a sex tape of someone I know. It could be a girl from college, the barista who makes my latte every morning, or even an ex—anyone, really. It’s that chance, combined with the fact that amateur porn often feels more real and natural. Even if you don’t find someone you know, at least you might find someone who looks like her!
In other words, homemade porn tends to feel more real, more genuine, and less fake.
Don’t get me wrong, I still enjoy classic, over-the-top porn just as much as the next person. But sometimes, you want something more down-to-earth, more realistic. And that’s where amateur porn really shines. Real girls, real sex, real emotions. No fake tits or exaggerated moans. Just raw, passionate sex.
Whether you prefer professional or iknowthatgirl—or both like me—there’s no denying that the fantasy of finding porn of someone you know is pretty standard.
So common, in fact, that a porn network called Mofos created a whole site around that idea: I Know That Girl. Initially, it was all about featuring unknown or up-and-coming girls in high-quality, professionally shot scenes. I say “originally” because things have changed a bit.A Reputation to Live Up To
I Know That Girl is a site you’ve probably come across at least once.
They had a pretty aggressive marketing campaign, especially when the site first launched in 2008. I remember seeing “I Know That Girl” ads everywhere, on almost every porn site. They’ve since scaled back, but most people—especially guys who spend a lot of time watching porn—have heard of it at some point.
Back to the original idea of I Know That Girl being a site focused on amateur girls—well, that’s not really the case anymore.
It’s not uncommon for “amateur” sites run by professional studios to slowly shift toward full-blown porn sites with well-known performers. It also happened with Dare Dorm, if you remember. I’m not sure if it’s because of legal issues or not, but it’s a common trend.
So these days, the chance of finding a girl you know on I Know That Girl is pretty slim.
Unless, of course, you know a lot of porn stars, in which case, every site might feel like I Know That Girl. But that’s not the case for most people, so you probably won’t recognize any of the girls.Amateur Porn Aesthetic, Professional Porn
That doesn’t mean I Know That Girl isn’t still a great site.
Sure, it’s a bit disappointing they moved away from their amateur roots—especially with a name like I Know That Girl. But the porn is still really good, and they’ve kept some of the homemade feel in how they film. The videos often begin with the actors hanging out together, chatting and flirting, before moving into the bedroom.
There, the filming style mixes POV shots with tripod-style shots, where the camera is placed and the sex takes place.This keeps the classic I Know That Girl intimacy—like a couple filming a private sex tape. The only real difference is that the girls are often no longer amateurs or unknown; they frequently appear in other Mofos movies. But when it comes to sexy, stripped-down gonzo-style porn, I Know That Girl still holds its own.I do have one major issue with the site, though. And that is that it is not.
