PWP is an acronym that stands for Porn Without Plot. It's a shorthand flag for stories whose sole purpose is to present a sexually-explicit situation (often with descriptions of varying quality); "stroke story" is another term for the same, especially in erotica. A PWP is almost always a short story, as going more than a few scenes risks accidentally discovering a plot which may well take over the story, change it to Porn with Plot, and even shove the explicit sexual content off to the side. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })However there exist many multi-chapter PWP fan fictions written with the intention of cramming as many explicit sex scenes in as possible — some of these end up discovering a (gasp!) plot, with the sex subsiding and then happening only every other chapter, which rather spoils the whole experience. PWPs are convenient for the writer who wants to produce smut, because they do not require justification; they simply happen with no explanation. PWP can also stand for "Person With Person", because of the frequent occurrence of...non-standard couplings, also without the need for justification. Many years ago, its most common translation was "Plot? What Plot?", although that meaning has somewhat faded except among the much older fanbases (such as Star Trek). Obviously deals with Pornography. See also Lemon, Slash Fic, Doujinshi, Summer Blockbuster, Excuse Plot, Yaoi (in its original Japanese meaning). The Furry Fandom in particular seems to be fond of this trope. Contrast Porn with Plot and Explicit Content (if it happens to involve the former trope instead). Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Compare No Plot? No Problem! for the non-pornographic version of this trope. YMMV variant: Sexually explicit mainstream films and TV shows, especially shows who have non-simulated sexual scenes (something becoming less rare in film than it used to be) are often accused — sometimes accurately, often not — as being this. Conversely, there are many pornographic films that have very strong plots (so much so that many have been released in non-hardcore and even non-sexual edits and still stand up; examples include Café Flesh and Star Wars XXX). |

In one episode of Coupling, Steve feels compelled to defend pornogr- erotica: He goes on to insist that Lesbian Spank Inferno does have a plot; it's about a group of lesbians who set up a film festival. Asked if the films entered in the festival have plots, he says they're "conceptual peices". |

In DISCO (2017), Vince seems to think that a porn composed of nothing with sex is better than a porn with a script, taking the conversation very seriously. | |

Peeking Through the Fourth Wall began their After Dark spinoff by reviewing one of these titled Property of Luan Loud. Mr. Grouse described it as a "furry jailbait fantasy", while he, Lori; Leni; Luna and Luan were especially disgusted by Lincoln not helping Luan after Cat!Leni rapes her. | |

Boogie Nights: This trope is discussed at length. Jack Horner is an ambitious porn director who does not want to do this; he wants to make pornos that tell stories. Towards the end of the film, when the changing circumstances in the industry basically force him to do this—specifically, a project in which he takes one of his porn actresses around in a limo, to have sex with men taken randomly off the street—it's portrayed as a low moment for him. | |
