Can we talk about porn?

[LSPoorEeyorick]

Mass hysteria!

Thinking of learning types (aural, visual, kinesthetic) I am definitely a strongly kinesthetic learner with a visual slant. But the visual slant definitely has to do with being able to comprehend via reading. If there's something to be done--learning to bake bread, for instance-- I'd get the most out of it by doing it, then by reading about it, then less so by seeing it, then really-hardly-at-all by hearing about it. (I suspect that the latter has to do with the near-deaf right ear; my listening comprehension has never been good.)

Anyway, this extends to every part of my being. When it comes to this particular topic, I would really rather just have sex-- but reading about it is certainly heaps better than looking at it or hearing it; those two do very little for me.

I do suspect a basic gender difference, though surely generalized as I know there are exceptions. Looking at pornography just doesn't seem sexy to me. Words... words are sexy, though.

(A real body? Even sexier.)

I feel the same way. I've read things that I've found very erotic, and not that I couldn't ogle Edward Norton for a really long time, but actual porn pictures just doesn't do it for me. I tried looking at porn again just yesterday (prompted by this thread) to see if anything had changed, and it just had absolutely no appeal. For one thing, I really don't find random penises to be attractive. Plus, testicles are really funny. Faced with the real thing, of course that's erotic, but pictures? Not so much. I also don't care about 18 yr old boobs. Porn just seems full of bald testicles and young boobs. None of that really does anything for me.

But, yeah, I'd rather just have sex.

I'm a Ralph Kramden man myself.

I like drawing little faces on mine for just that reason.

Im usually only amused by those when theyre attached to 100+ year old women (ok, maybe not 100, but some of the porn "actresses" surely look at least that weather-beaten)

as the old joke says, its like hanging a chandelier in a haunted house.

You know, I'd bet most men would answer the same way, but I think the reason porn exists is to satisfy the urges of those, for whatever reasons, aren't having sex right now. I doubt very much (though I'm sure the subculture exists) that people currently masturbating to porn are doing so, because they'd rather not have sex with another person at the moment.

I also have a hunch, that being away on a business trip right now, Lisa would much prefer to have me to viewing some porn instead of picking up hookers (not that I'm doing either since I'm instead posting on LoT - the next best thing to porn).

Hee hee. I'm not knocking porn. Just personally, I can have sex, so I don't really have any desire for porn. I've never really been in the position of not being able to have sex, so I guess I can't say what I would do in that instance. But some people find porn to be a nice compliment to an active sex life, and that's cool for them, but it just doesn't do it for me. Maybe I've just seen the wrong porn?

I would think that by 18 boobs are pretty well developed. It isn't small boobs that I don't like. I'm just neutral on boobs in general. Then, I see lots of boobs all the time so I guess I just don't care. It's more the youth that annoys me. If I'm going to watch porn I'd rather watch a grown up woman instead of a young girl.

Really, my apathy for porn probably has something to do with the fact that the relatively minimal amount of porn I've watched has been crappy. There's such a huge gamut of porn out there that I'm sure there is probably some that I would at least find entertaining. Maybe we should have a porn meet next time I'm in town.

It's funny that this thread seems like the cleanest one we've had in a while and it's about porn.

There's always phone sex.

Be careful about unprotected phone sex with stangers. You could catch hearing aids.

That would be my most recent ex before BT. In his opinion, solo was the vastly superior experience.
