I hope this is not a silly question but I have wondered about this for the longest time. Can someone please enlighten me as to why lesbians feature so prominently in straight male fantasies? Thank you. Humbly yours…Dodgy
Because there’s twice as much to look at.
[fantasy] …And three times as much fun… [/fantasy]
Actually, my first lover was a lesbian, so my POV is kinda skewed.
The female body is nice to look at. I find the appearance of a nude, well-built female form to be extremely enticing, and the mental vision of two very attractive female forms writhing and wriggling and licking and sucking and kissing and nuzzling and slurping and spasming and… well, you get the idea… I find that all to be EXTREMELY enticing…
Then again, I’m leaving out several aspects of the fantasy that I’m sure many people here would find utterly disgusting.
And, before anyone asks (probably dropzone…), NO, THE “UTTERLY DISGUSTING” PART DOESN’T INCLUDE TOOTHPASTE!
TMI, SPOOFE, TMI…
There are several schools of thought on this, and I don’t think you will find widespread agreement. My personal opinion is that sometimes many men want to be - or wish they could be - feminine, but are not attracted at all to another man. Or something like that. But, of course, IANAP.
IANAP=I am not a penis??
Guys like to fantasize about sex. The problem with straight sex is, there’s this naked guy. Straight guys don’t generally want to think about naked guys during fantasies. If he’s replaced with another attractive female, well, you’re ahead of the game, aren’t you?

Anthracite is way off. It’s purely because one naked firly in orgasmic pleasure is nice, therefore two or more is better, and why spoil it all by having some guy in the image too? So there you go.
And let me tell you, watching it, even the fake stuff, in real life 3D close-up, with no personal interaction of your own, is the most frustrating thing in the world!!!
To be perfectly honest they don’t feature in my fantasies. I certainly have nothing against them - in fact i resepct their choice and have no wish to intrude upon it.
If I have two naked women before me I want interaction with myself as well. Bisexual action is fine, but I want everyone to be happy. My voyeuristic tendencies just don’t extend to watching two girls.
Having said that, most of my male friends seem to love the idea though no-one hads really been able to explain why (best explanation so far ran along the lines of “Duh man ; they’re naked!!”).
Don’t get me wrong - two or more women in threesomes or moresomes is fine. I’m not threatened by a woman’s strong sexuality in anyway. In fact a woman being comfortable enough to enjoy both sexes is appealing and arousing. Sharing that ease is a VERY nice thought. Just don’t personally find two women that appealing to watch - I feel like I’m intruding.
Naked women are fun to look at. Naked women making out with each other is even more fun to look at.

Umm…
Uh…
So? What of it? Nothing wrong with that!!

I apologize in advance for exposing you all to my crackpot theories, but I have this hypothesis called “The Deep-Down In Your Heart Fallacy.” Its genesis was in an anti-abortion billboard I saw, which declared, “Abortion: Deep In Your Heart, You KNOW It’s Wrong!” To which I repond, “No, deep in YOUR heart, YOU know it’s wrong.” I believe that people who hold a very strong belief have so much faith in the correctness of that belief that they incorrectly think that everyone must feel the same way, deep down in their hearts–they can’t imagine it any other way.
Before you think that I’m just being incredibly condescending, I’ve caught myself in the DDIYH fallacy . . . and perhaps I commit the same fallacy by accusing others of it!
Well, before this dissolves into pure solipsism, how does this apply to the OP? Well, straight guys find women REALLY SEXY. Ergo, they think that Deep Down, even WOMEN must find women REALLY SEXY.
As a side note, it’s not just men: http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=53316
Thanks for your views, everyone. And a nod to Podkane for the link. Ta.
Well, now that I’m done being a smartass, the real reason is because I get turned on by seeing women have sexual pleasure, and I get turned off by watching testicles fly back and forth. So twice the good stuff and none of the bad stuff. You can’t lose.
Also, why do I get the impression that guys wouldn’t be that turned on by actual lesbian porn, i.e. made by lesbians for a specifically lesbian audience?
Maybe it fits into the male fantasy of having multiple women, who don’t get jealous because they’re having sex with each other too.
Oh, I think they’d be turned on. Naked girls having sex, after all. But I think some people would find real lesbian porn surprising. (Wait… what’s with the short nails? And no dildos?)
I Am Not A Psychologist.
I always thought it was a combination of the fascination with mystery, that half understood allure of the unobtainable. With a bit of the power and control stroking our egos crave, “I am man, for I have conquered where all others have failed”.
Just remember fantasies are fun and healthy, but when they involve the desire for the unobtainable trying to make them a reality is almost always going to cause problems.
Have fun and play safe.
