Considering the context, couldn’t you have found a better word than “cutoff”? \<uncomfortable squirm\>

Hate to break your innocent illusions about the world, **D** , but there are actually some women who _(gasp)_ enjoy anal sex. So, perhaps it’s about pleasure rather than domination?

(I’ve also had girlfriends who have enjoyed 1-person bukkake performed on them…but that’s TMI)

The aesthetic of porn is that all women are horny sluts and will submit to anything, _anything_ to get off.

- Woman masturbating by herself. Guy walks in. Reaction in real life: Get out creep! Reaction in porn: Do me hard.

- Woman having sex with (wo)man. Guy walks in. Reaction in porn: Please join.

As for the OP. ‘Ordinary’ anal sex is getting stale and the industry is forever pushing the envelope to do even harder stuff. 15 years ago, anal sex was extremely rare, at least as compared to now.  
Yes, I am aware that there are some women who like it, but I think that the big majority still don’t get the point.

I’m one of those guys who don’t get the point either.

1 person bukkake, by it’s very definition, is impossible. Usually. Unless you’ve got a one minute man who can dump gallons at a time…

Peter North, perhaps.

1 man cumshot on the face is generally refered to as a “facial”.

I don’t think the anal/ ass-to-mouth stuff is about humiliation/power. I think it’s a turn on to some because it’s taboo. Some jokes are funny because they’re just wrong, some stuff is arousing because it’s just wrong. IMHO, anyway.

It could appeal to all kinds of people. Those who enoy being submissive or being with a submissive partner. Those who don’t feel that receiving anal sex is a submissive act and get a powerful kick engaging in it with a partner. Those who feel anything anal is somehow more ‘dirty’ or ever-so-slightly wrong, so therefore ‘naughtier’; and ‘naughty’ can be a huge turn-on. Those who simply enjoy anal sex/rimming and get a kick out of seeing it onscreen.

Rimming is hotter than hell to give or receive - providing you’re into it. It feels good. It’s a turn-on to pleasure your partner to that extent if it feels good to them. It’s a good precursor to anal sex as it relaxes that part of your body. I am happily into it, and like to see it in porn.

Bukkake? _Real_ bukkake involving 100+ men and one small woman dressed as a Japanese schoolgirl who is sitting in a submissive pose? Yes, I don’t get that. Yes, it definitely has overtones of humiliation, is that not the point for the people watching it? Even in most sub/dom situations, it’s not about _actual_ degredation as it’s the sub who decides how far the scenario plays out. Bukkake definitely seems to go a step further than that which makes me uncomfortable - the woman is there to be used and it has nothing at all to do with her pleasure AFAIK. So I guess that’s something you either ‘get’ or you don’t, and frankly I’m rather glad that I don’t. But it depends on your definition of bukkake - I haven’t watched hetero porn in an age. In gay porn, 20/30+ guys ‘dousing’ the one is simply a cumbath, which will generally occur in any given orgy situation and has done for years, and the ‘dousee’ is portrayed as finding it arousing. Where would this stand in straight porn, now the term ‘bukkake’ is more widely used/abused?

I guess whether or not you see receiving anal sex or a facial as a degrading or submissive experience will colour your perspective - to receive either can mean that you are desirable, seductive, the one who is wanted - in a position of power, in other words.

Okay, the anal sex thing, and by that I mean simply the dick in the ass, I can pretty much understand, even though I have less then no interest in going to the **No-No Spot** myself.

But what is the arousal factor is having a guy fucking a girl in the ass, then pulling out and shoving his dick in her mouth?

To me, there is nothing arousing in that.

Demeaning?

Oh my, yes.

I’ll second that, with the modification that putting his dick _anywhere_ but into soapy water after a trip up the offramp is a turnoff. And the soapy water doesn’t do anything for me either.

Thanks Yojimboguy. Always appreciate a new metaphor.
