Her view is that many people do use porn as a model for their sex life, and that mainstream hardcore porn - which she things has a limited world-view - should not be the de-facto source of sex education.

All that is in her TED presentation. Perhaps watching that video would give you a different sense of the person than that NYT article about the person?

I think you are right to argue that she's advocating for more of the variant of reality pornography which is a higher quality of amateur pornography, or for more erotica. However, I think her real goal is that pornography is not where people should be learning about sex, and she's using this as a way to advocate that goal.

Framed your way, she thinks porn's impact on cultural practice is too constricting, and detrimental to the type of society she wants there to be.
