So I’m sitting in my room, working on physics, and my boyfriend decides to hijack my computer and starts looking at porn. I’ve seen this stuff before, and I must say that he has horrible taste. But something that I’ve realized lately is that it’s not really his fault.
All the porn I’ve seen up to today (and granted… I have seen very little of it) is pretty tasteless. Sure, you might be thinking, “Porn? Tasteless? I didn’t know those two words were separable.” Maybe that’s how a lot of girls think anyway. Then again, I’m not close enough to any girls to really know the full extent of their opinions concerning the porn industry. But I digress.
I don’t really have a problem with pornography. I’m just not interested in the way it portrays sex. And I’m also not very interested in seeing genitalia. I’ve tried a little bit of hentai, because I thought that maybe animated sex would at least be prettier. What I got was old men forcing young women into sex. I really didn’t get interested in the story or the actions until it started getting romantic, but then it ended.
So this is what I have learned so far:
I want to see something romantic.
It should be more focused on the beauty of love-making, and not just the act itself.
It does not have to be soft porn.
I still would prefer hentai, because I think anime is beautiful.
Are there any other women who share my taste?
But more importantly, does anyone have any suggestions for series or movies that I might be interested in?
IANAW, but you could try looking at the Hentai Jump! website. Can’t give you any recommendations myself, since I couldn’t be less interested in that. I mean, the animated stuff. And I’ll just say good luck, because it sounds like you’re not the target audience for hentai at all. As far as I can tell, it’s more for playing out male fantasies than for true romance.
Surely ‘romantic’ isn’t the right word. There are lots of non-porn films out there that meet your requirements, which is precisely why they aren’t considered porn. Substitute the word ‘erotic,’ however, and I agree - the majority of hardcore porn films aren’t, and usually follow a very tired formula which always culminates in the male lead coming over the face of the woman. I’m sure there are women who, at the end of a lovemaking session, like nothing better than for the guy to pull out from inside them and amasturbate into her hair (they usually manage to miss the mouth somehow), but how many??
I personally know a couple of women that like it on their face. They have asked me to do it. The one girl just about killed me when I accidentally got it up her nose. Apparently, it’s 100x worse than the eye or the hair (which she never really cared about). Oddly enough, two is a pretty high percentage of the women I’ve been with…
Romantic anime hentai? There are such things. Mostly comedy-type anime. I don’t have any titles since most of that kind of anime is not what I’d call interesting.
My GF likes regular porn and will watch it with me. Her tastes, though, are different from mine and what she likes to watch doesn’t appeal as much to me. She likes to watch guys (and/or women) give oral to women where as I prefer regular BJs.
A friend and I have had this idea that we can make an erotic film that is hardcore. The idea is to have a horror film, but with lots of erotic hardcore moments. Lest anyone get the wrong idea, I’m not talking about the cheesy thin “plots” of the pre-camcorder films (“Pizza delivery! And here’s your pepperoni!”); but an actual, well-produced, well-filmed, well-acted movie – that just happens to have hardcore love scenes instead of the R-rated stuff. Sort of “live-action Hentai”.
Ideally I’d like to shoot it in 16mm (since that’s what I have – Ihave a couple of light kits, too), but that can get expensive. If anyone has such a project in mind and wants to hire me to shoot it, that may be enough incentive for me to invest in a PD-150 digicam.
BTW: Is it “Hentai” (tai rhymes with pie), or is it “hentei” (hen-tay)?;
rame.net: the official website of recarts.movies.erotica, has an FAQ page that talks about couples porn, which may be which you are looking for. The big name in the field seems to be Candida Royalle, but I’ve never seen any. Her web page is at www.royalle.com/.
Rent the unrated version of Sex and Lucia. It has some hardcore porn, though it accounts for only about 5 percent of the film. Even without the hardcore moments, it’s an incredibly erotic movie. It’s also a beautiful story, very romantic, with great acting and stunning cinematography.
I really wonder why no one makes dramatic erotic porn. It’s obvious that girls like me aren’t the target audience, but couldn’t the porn industry gain by expanding its horizons a little? It seems like creating more sensual pornography would draw in a new and valuable audience.
Maybe the demand is low because women haven’t had the opportunity to see anything good. We’ve just given up on porn altogether.
DiabloKitty2: Yeah, romantic porn would probably draw more female viewers; but the market is aimed at men. It costs a lot to make a decent film. I saw one called Nightdreams back when I watched the occasional porn film. The plot was a bit thin: A woman has never had an orgasm, so she goes to an “institute” where she it wired up and we see her fantasies. It’s got some incredibly funny stuff in it. (Funny as in “intentionally funny”, like the glack guy in the Cream of Wheat box with the giant toast dancing in the background playing “Old Man River” on a sax.) Her final fantasy involves a good-looking guy and a fairly tender love-making scene.
But there were lots of costumes involved, and the sets cost more than just a room with a bed. If you want to make a professional-looking film you need to spend time and money on lighting, set decoration, sound, costumes, people who can actually act, and a decent script. I think most guys just want to see hot babes, and they don’t care about a good story or production values. You’ll need a larger crew too, and they need to be fed.
So the return on the investment would be much less with a pro-looking film than with a camcorder fuck-fest.
If you really want romantic porn, try romance writings. Not just those horrid books with Fabio on the cover, or those dreadful internet stories that are basically just random people screwing.
But actual, romantic stories that have at least 30 pages before any actual screwing occurs. You can find them some places on the internet, or sometimes they make good books in the library. And while most scenes are pretty tender, they should also be graphic enough to satisfy any porn longings.
I’ve tried my hand at writing these things… let’s just say it takes a true artist to write something truly romantic. I spent 6 months on one such story…
It’s HARD (Er, as in difficult…)
So that’s my reccomendation for tender romantic porn.
Actually, I think you’re on the right track with hentai, though you’re right that a lot of it consists of older guys forcing younger women to have sex.
A title you might want to check out:
Fencer of Minerva – when there’s a coup at the castle, a young prince and his childhood girlfriend are separated. What’s more, the coup was instigated by forces allied with his girlfriend’s father, so she stay in the castle and lives the life of a princess and he (the rightful prince) becomes the wandering Fencer of Minerva (actually, there’s no “Minerva” anywhere in the film – typical of anime.) Anyway, she gets fed up with the princess life or something and runs away and gets captured by bandits and enslaved, and is rescued by …
Care to guess who?
Pretty good little romance storyline, but not as hardcore as a lot of anime. And I haven’t given away the whole plot by any means, a lot more happens afterward. It’s not great but it’s better than most anime.
I have never seen a hardcore film that really aroused romantic feelings in me. And most softcore Playboy stuff is too stupid for words. But you might try “The Key to Sex,” which is a mildly amusing bedroom farce about a young guy whose wealthy boss leaves him with the key to his surside lovenest while bossman goes on vacation. Naturally, everybody at the office and all his friends finagle the key out of him so they can use the lovenest for romantic assignations. Not a bad little flick, if you dressed up the dialogue and the acting it could pass for mainstream. It’s not much by mainstream standards but considerably better than most softcore stuff.
Heh you forgot the part about how penile tentacles suddenly appear out of nowhere and attack young beautiful well endowed teenaged girls wearing pleated skirts and sailor outfits.
You BF is delving into the world of XXX porn. They say you have to say something 3 times before you actually get a mans attention thats why you have ads that go “Girls Girls Girls!” “Cars Cars Cars!” “Buy Buy BUY!” x x X!!
Basically tripple X porn is all the “good stuff” that men focus on and very few of what may be construed as story. To men, it doesnt have to make sense how a girl got there with 12 men. She’s there, she’s naked and ready. Thats what a man want. Anything more complicated and the men lose their lil choo-choo of thought.
What you want is is normally just rated X (single X) it is the real standard the movie industry uses (Triple X is a porn industry invention) A story rated X is given for its excessive violence or explicit sex and/or nudity. If you find a story that is rated X that is non-violent, you may find a very interesting and romantic story. Either that you can go low tech and just read a Harlequin novel with a picture of Fabio in front.
