Do Females Watch Porn

    From my experience, most men tend to watch porn. 100% of my close male friends watch porn regulary.

    From previous relationships, female friends etc. I would break down females into 3 fairly equal groups.
    1. Watch and enjoy "standard" porn in a similar way to men.
    2. Prefer a much softer, sensual type of porn.
    3. Don't really get turned on by the visual side of things that porn offers, that's not to say that they're not sexual.

    Humans, I'd imagine. Women and girls. Is it really not a given from the context?

    Well why not say 'women' or 'girls' then? You rarely see men referred to as 'males'.

    OP. Women like porn. Women like sex. Women are just as sexual as men are, just as filthy, and just as perverted. Women don't all like the same porn. Some women watch a lot of porn. Some women don't watch any porn.

    I know people have feet fetishes but i stumbled across one vid, have no idea what i was searching (i hate feet so it wasnt that). But this wan was ramming her foot into this poor chaps mouth. The whole bloody thing went in and he was gagging. I stayed away from porn for a few weeks after that :o

    I'm over that one now, but be careful what you click people :P

    How do people get turned on by feet? They are manky looking yokes!

    Legs, defo, can't beat them! Feet...gtfo :mad:

    In fairness, many lobby + feminist groups and news articles against porn would paint the picture that men are the only ones who watch it and women only get their kicks from erotic literature or watching Ryan Gosling get topless......or that they are generally sexless.

    I've known a lot of women who were absolute porn-hounds, they could rhyme off a list of their favourite porn sites and find what they like within a heartbeat. It could be down to some being more willing to admit it than a lot of men would.

    I knew of one girl who was into BDSM and pregnancy porn. She had probably the biggest and most well-organised porn I had ever seen, it was actually impressive :pac:

    If you're interested in female sexuality you could do worse than read My Secret Garden by Nancy Friday.

    Good gracious - I tried it, of course - there IS "Tractor porn". Quite a lot of it. Who knew??

    But as regards feet, that's an old one.
    For myself, I would not fancy a chunk of anyone's sweaty bunion and toenails in my mouth: but there's nowt so quare as folks!

    -- once I was in San Francisco with Mr March and there was a fellow with a comfy chair out on the pavement, offering free foot massages to ladies. Possibly the most blissful fifteen minutes of my life!!

    Why didn't he say that then? "Females" referring to women is very dehumanizing.

    In what way is it dehumanising? It's a perfectly normal word, with no malice or negative connotation. He refers to himself as a male three words in. Where does this idea that 'female' is a bad word come from?

    Because female can refer to any species. Woman refers to humans.
    Female is an adjective and by using it to refer to women, it's not only grammatically incorrect but it reduces women to their reproductive parts and abilities.
    But go on, keep telling me why you think I shouldn't be annoyed by a word that doesn't refer to you in a dehumanising way. :rolleyes:

    I can only chip in my perspective, but as a female woman I don't find the word dehumanising at all. I do get quite annoyed at people who nitpick language though, no offence intended to you.


    ETA: If I wanted to nitpick language, by the way, I'd point out that female is both a noun and an adjective.

    I doubt many cats and dogs read Boards (a forum for humans) so seen as all members are human I would take it for granted that female refers to the human species!

    If any dogs and cats do read Boards regularly then I apologise for the above sweeping generalisation and if you could PM me, I have a few questions I'd like answered regarding licking myself..... :pac:

    "Do Bitches Watch Porn" would probably earn a ban :pac:

    So nitpicking language is annoying if it agrees with your world view but not the other way round? Rightio.

    they used females, women, men, males. why do you not lambaste them for the use of male?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,629 ✭✭✭Hunchback


    Not only do women watch porn, I know straight women who watch gay male porn because they are aroused by the dynamic of seeing a man being dominated or subjicated (if that is the right word). Different stokes for different folks, always ;)

    I don't like the use of "males" used on it's own to refer to men either. It was the title that stuck out to me.

    I may find nitpicking annoying, but I also find irony delicious.

    But hey, I'm just a silly, fickle female.

    When I find some porn that features a man rubbing the womans tum-tum when she's eaten too much, then carrying her to the sofa and handing her the remote before he puts out the bins, I'll be glued to it.

    Otherwise I have to say I find it spectacularly unerotic and mechanical to watch. I also worry about the performers, which may or may not be warranted but still affects how I process porn.

    This can only mean that I'm frigid and repressed and all that negative stuff, right? That's how these kinds of threads usually go.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,750 ✭✭✭iDave


    Ah a thread about how males and females.....sorry men and women are different. These always go well.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,646 ✭✭✭✭qo2cj1dsne8y4k


    I haven't read the entire thread so I'm probably way off the mark here but yeah, I as a woman don't find porn degrading to women. As long as nobody is being exploited, no harm done. I personally like watching porn but only with someone else. I like watching porn for the lol factor too, (fake taxi)

    Do women look at men the same way at men look at women? I don't know. Maybe. I don't know what's up with me today but I'm seeing rides all around the place. There was a man wearing a suit on the train today, he was unreal, and although he didn't know it, he was having the time of his life in my head. The cashier at the local shop. A man walking past the window. I have been very busy all morning objectifying men. I usually wouldn't see as many attractive people, to be honest. I feel drunk

    Did you know that women like sex just as much as men? Crazy I know, but it's true!

    I agree. But downstairs regions are not the most aesthetically pleasing either really. There's a reason it's called 'bumping uglies' :pac:

    If an argument is needed against intelligent design, I reckon that would be it.

    See. That's the first and only comment about anyone being 'frigid' and 'repressed' for not liking porn in the thread.

    So I guess you have nothing to worry about.

    yep, nothing intelligent about siting the sewer next to the playground.
