Hi Phonesto, welcome to Scarleteen!

When people say that porn portrays women as passive, they often mean that porn as a whole is often centered towards typical men-centric views, which often are geared towards the perception of women as submissive and passive (ie. going with the flow, letting things happen, etc.), as opposed to active (centered on women's pleasure/orgasm/etc). This article may help explain it more thoroughly!
