Based on the WSO Dataset, the LionTree Adult Media & Entertainment group is relatively new and has been recruiting individuals with experience in financing companies within the adult entertainment industry, such as those who have worked with MindGeek (parent company of Pornhub, Brazzers, RedTube, etc.). This indicates a focused and specialized approach within this niche market.

Regarding your interest in working in this group, it's crucial to maintain professionalism in all aspects of your application and interactions. While it's important to align your interests with the group's focus, explicitly mentioning "porn" in your interests section might not be perceived as professional. Instead, consider framing your interest in terms of media and entertainment finance, specifying your knowledge and expertise in handling complex and unique markets.

As for the mention of "CIMs" (Confidential Information Memorandums), it's witty to play on words, but remember to approach your application and interviews with the seriousness and professionalism expected in the investment banking industry.
