All men watch porn

Discussion

I didn’t spell the word wrong[;] I missed a letter, and I think it’s reasonable to assume someone with a degree (of any sort) would be able to spell a fairly common word.

You miss a letter in a spelling bee and you’re out 'cause the word is MISSPELLED. Karaoke is only a common word here in the US if you frequent bars or shitty night clubs, which I do not.

And if you didn’t get it, I know I am pretty and intelligent.

See? This is why I’m thinking NAY to that, if you have to say it, it’s probably not true and really only serves as an affirmation.

That’s exactly why my partner doesn’t enjoy pornograph(Y), he gets everything he needs from me.

He’s lying to you and is a chronic masturbator/porno junkie when you are not around. 'Cause if you really are as good as you think you are, there’s no way you could always be around to satisfy that hunger.

Can always rely on you Grumpy. Blame the stupid American spell check for my missing letters.

Jesus, another Grmp v. Velvet “session”

@ Velvet re: men watching porn.

While it is maybe a bit assumptious to think ALL men watch porn, it is maybe more practical to assume the vast majority of men PROBABLY watch porn, either regularly or sporadically. I think the thing is to not be shocked or surprised if you find out your man watches porn if you thought he didn’t. I guess it varies with women but some take it a bit worse off than others when they find out their man has the same visual knowledge of Sasha Grey’s vagina as said porn star’s gynaecologist. I’ve known women to be cool about it (whether they were just pretending to be or not, guess I can’t say) but there are some who really go to town on it and are totally unreasonable, like wanting a divorce. A man watching porn is not intentionally disrespectful to their woman. It would be, say, if he tried to make her watch it when they were together and she didn’t want to but that’s not usually the case.

I will also say that this argument that porn affects men’s perceptions of women in a negative way is weak. The whole issue is very complex but I will say that when I was a young teen porn was actually beneficial. It gives you anatomical knowledge, it offers a sexual release (esp. when the girls in your locality are either neurotic, boring, clingy or unavailable). Not all porn is manhandling some “poor” woman and exploding on her face telling her she is a (insert sexual expletives).

If you’ve got a girlfriend you may not feel the need to watch porn but if she’s away for a few days or whatever then so what if he looks it up, it’s better than cheating on her isn’t? I’ve a girlfriend presently but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to watch porn. I only see her an odd time a week so…

I guess what I’m saying is that a woman can not justifiably demand her man not watch porn because she should be enough. It’s not that simple and it varies case to case but for most guys (who are not obsessed with it) it’s no big deal. I think women would revolt if men starting demanding they cannot read erotic fiction or started anti-erotic fiction campaigns… [laugh] how stereotypical of me.

Your post is simply too long and logical for me to respond to it all, however I do absolutely agree that pornography does not automatically have a negative affect on a man’s perception of women and their sexuality. Sure when it gets to the point where one partner is excessively watching or using it, it becomes pretty obvious that it’s causing a problem.

I disagree that it provides a truly real depiction of anatomy, especially with labioplasty being the in thing these days. I’m sure it causes many a lettuce head ladies to develop a real albeit unrealistic ideal. Is it the fault of the actor, director, casting agent?

I think my biggest objection to it, is the idea that one partner uses it, alone, when they have a real life human to enjoy sexual encounters with.

Men just can’t remain excited about one person for that long, no matter how intimate the emotional component of the relationship. Its a natural instict to procreate with anything that moves for a man. I say it is far better to satisfy that particular lust by rubbing one off every once in a while than by actual cheating. It is not anybody’s fault that we are wired this way, its just evolution. It is our choice how we deal with it though and I think pornography is by far one of the least problematic solutions.

lettuce head ladies

I lol’d

Yeah it might engender difficult/unrealistic standards of vaginal aesthetics but I meant moreso it can be used as a live action guide of where everything is and what to hit.

There is course less necessity for porn if a man is in a relationship and its also the case they should probably put more effort into getting the real thing as opposed to just falling back on the computer screen, but the social environment is not always conducive to the real thing.

When you think about it, car magazines, food magazines, video-game slaughterfests and guitar magazines are far more gratuitously pornographic than sex, but just within different contexts.

Think about the way they dress up and spray the food with inedible quantities of glazing/sheen.

Or the way the cars are buffed, polished, and hotted out to go really, really fast and be really, really loud.

etc.etc.

All about instant gratification which is ostensibly out of reach to the viewer; but it doesn’t have to be, funnily enough. I think, half the time, the viewer clings to that idea because they’ve trained themselves into thinking the porn is enjoyable, ultimately to the extent of forgetting how good the real thing is.

I mean, I’ve got friends who crap on and on about Satriani and Vai, and know all the guitar specs and whatever… but can’t play for two shits, if at all.

Im pretty sure there are people in some tribe in the amazon or in africa that dont have porn. I feel sorry for them.

This relates to what I said before; they’re probably getting more than any of us put together! RE:

They don’t bother with porn…they just fuck.

they don’t even need porn, half of them walk around naked… don’t you guys have the discovery channel?

Gotta love them loose jungle wimmin!

You know you’d hit it, ask Dildo, I’m not that repulsive.

She’s a good bloke, leave her alone.

Um… I really have to agree with grmpy here.

Guys will still wank no matter how much sex they are getting. It’s quick, easy and convenient, with minimal mess depending on how clumsy and/or playful you’re feeling that day.

Take it from a young man Mick…

more and more girls… especially younger ones than myself… are normalising porn. And enjoying it.

Tis a good time to be young, I sez [shocked]

That shit makes me sick to my bones.

31

You’d think when the topic is porn I wouldn’t be bored.

32

Porn rules. End of Gawd-damned story.

33

it’s only common courtesy to get both parties to orgasm. as men we tend to come first, so the dildo can come in handy

34

Porn is the shit! Just youtube “SSBBW” and you will see what I mean!

EDIT - BlueVelvet, your dude is a liar. I guarantee he watches porn. If he really doesn’t then he’s totally your bitch.

I own quite a few porno mags. Something like two dozen. Just stuff I’ve collected over the years. Purely 18 is my favourite. Love the looks on people’s faces when I waltz into the newsagent and slap down a teen porn mag on the counter.

Don’t download it much or buy porn dvds though.

36

I’m not shitting you all here…

but I don’t have time for it. I know that sounds like bullshit, but I honestly don’t. If I do, sometimes I will. But, these FUN times are becoming fewer and further between these days…

most people don’t believe me, because 90% of anything that comes of my mouth is profanity, a depraved observation, a sick joke, a dirty double entendre or a less than flattering observation of the fairer sex. But, the truth is, I’m too damn busy. [mad]

I believe you. There’s alot more intereesting things I can be doing with my time than wasting it on porn. I mean it had it’s day for me when i was a teen, but I guess I grew out of it or something. It’s like going to a stripclub. it’s just not an interest of mine. why remind yourself that your lonely

38

Urgh. I’ve only been to a strip club once. I hated how they come up to you, talking, chatting, getting friendly and then…

“so, you wanna lap dance for 50 bucks?”

pffffffffffffft… fuck off, I just came here for a beer and to watch you degrade yourself. I can save 50 bucks if I lower my standards and hone in on some jailbait at the local. [crazy]

39

95% of the time I’m completely underwhelmed by porn.

There is the occasional time when I’ll lash out and buy a men’s mag - maybe once a year or something.

I own a few ‘dirty movies’ but they’re more kitschy 70s softcore than hardcore sex. I like weird, psychedlic shit like Vampyros Lesbos etc. Some of the Emmanuelle series is ok for retro value but it’s very tame by today’s standards.

The film Caligula has some pretty extreme shit going on. But I found most or nearly all of it be be extremely non arousing…just awkward.
