    Men are objectified in porn too. Plenty of dom/sub porn with the women as the dominant partner out there.

    That's a fair point.

    There is quite a large amount of "feminist porn" about these days, that generally does porn in a much better way than is traditional: http://www.shedoesthecity.com/2013-feminist-porn-awards-web-nominees
    According to the official website, nominations for an FPA are dependent upon three criteria:

    - A woman had a hand in the production, writing, direction, etc. of the work.
    - It depicts genuine female pleasure.
    - It expands the boundaries of sexual representation on film and challenges stereotypes that are often found in mainstream porn.

    On the contrary, male submission has always been around and very common amongst the likes of businessmen in particular who need a change of control in their lives. I wouldn't necessarily use that as an excuse.

    I'm an advocate for porn.

    The only thing that's bad about porn is getting friction burn from fapping off.

    What does that mean?

    Do they mean the actress is having a real orgasm, or the actress is pretending to have a recognizable orgasm? Or 'we're in the woman's head' so to speak?

    Porn in moderation is grand and normal, although a lot of it does nothing for me. Naffness is not erotic.
    In terms of the industry, very hardcore has repugnant elements. And I'd wonder about people who really enjoy the violent/verbally abusive stuff.

    'Men use sex to hurt us.'

    Fcuk sake.


    Here's the thing - us women aren't all delicate little flowers that only like missionary position. Sometimes, some of us like being objectified sexually by the person we're with.

    Men are objectified in porn too. Plenty of dom/sub porn with the women as the dominant partner out there.

    Yes, porn can give young people unrealistic expectations. No denying that. It can also be fun, give people new ideas for things to try, and, like anything you see on tv that is fictional, should be taken with a large pinch of salt.

    If a woman or a man doesn't like something, they have the ability to say no.

    Most of my exes were obsessed with the idea of anal, presumably due to porn. I tried it, didn't enjoy kit, so refuse to do it. Only one person has had a problem with me saying no, and he wasn't worth my time anyway.

    Very well stated, I like your style... much

    Has to be the quote of the day. Can be an insult or compliment, depending on the type of wanker you are.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 380 ✭✭MiloYossarian


    Sure who says it is bad for us, let everyone make their own minds up on whether they want to watch porn or not.

    Too many busybodies in the world telling others what to do.

    You shouldn't be saying things like that.

    Like most things it's grand in moderation.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 179 ✭✭TomoBhoy


    Porn portrays a unrealistic expectation, plumbers do not answer the call in a few minutes!!

    In Ted Bundy's last interview, the morning before he was executed. He warned of porn and it's dangers, especially porn that focused on violence against women, make belief or not.

    Bit rich coming from him but interesting none the less.

    I disagree, people dont watch porn for the bodies, just for the acts
