The line between real and porn and cultural differences

It's hard to condense in a few words for a title, so let me explain what I mean.

In porn with a storyline, one of the things they tend to do is start with something that's perfectly normal in real life, bu8t then it gets more and more unlikelyand in the end it's something that only happens in porn.

And example from the past is "woman orders pizza, but when the delivery boy comes she doesn't have enough money and pays him with sex." (This wouldn't really work these days where you pay online or with an app, but this is from back in the days where you still paid the delivery guy at the door.

The start is normal. Lots of people order food delivery. Then it gets less likely but still possible with the not enough money bit, but when it comes to paying with sex that's very unrealistic. Who would fuck a stranger for a 10 dollar debt?

Now I grew up in Europe, so for porn set over here, I have a good idea about what is likely or very unrealistic so I can tell when I get to the "only in porn" bit. However, I know little about Japanese culture, so it is much harder for me to do the same when watching JAV. Can somebody who either is Japanese or has lived in Japan long enough to get a feel for the culture tell me where the line is in the following common JAV themes?

- Cultural festivals at school. I've seen a bunch of these where they do things for the festival like a kissing booth (which, this being porn, of course ends as a fucking booth) or even a teacher or student doing soap. I'm assuming the cultural festival thing is something that really exists, since there's a bunch of movies with that theme. However I have no idea what kind of thing happens at such a festival in real life. If I go by local standards, maybe the kissing booth could be real (at least before the whole metoo stuff happened) but the soap thing would never be allowed. But when I watch the reactions of the actors in the movie, it suggests the soap thin is not weird at all, and the real shock comes when it leads to actual, sex. So to sum up, what does happen at those festivals in real life and which parts are the "only in porn" bits?

- Intercrural sex. There are a LOT of JAV movies with this theme while you hardly ever see it in western porn (at least not as the main theme, maybe there's some as foreplay). Is this a common thbing in Japanese real life, and if so who does it? There's a lot of movies where they do it with strangers or even coworkers or relatives. In my culture it would be shocking just to do that with anybody you're not in a relationship with, but once again going by the reactions of the actors in those movies, it isn't a big deal until it almost inevetably ends in actual penetration. Is it really not a big deal in Japan?

I hope somebody can answer this, it would make the movies more fun for me if I had a better feel of where the normal ends and the "only in porn" stuff begins.

I'd be surprised if anything with strangers would be considered acceptable or normalized honestly. That being said, things like chikan absolutely happen and frequently go un- or under-reported much as it would in the West (probably to a lesser extent).

New twist on this one in BLK-621: Two beautiful roommates order pizza, but when the delivery guy arrives, he has 3 pizzas rather than the two that they ordered. Slim girls can't eat that much, so they invite him to eat with them. Then they have him for dessert and keep him captive for the weekend as their fuck toy. Guy acts like he's being held and forced against his will but that seems even more unrealistic than the scenario itself! And yes, I don't think culturally that this would ever happen.
