You, sir, are looking at the wrong men.
Two men who are as easy on the eyes (in the male fashion) as porn-women are easy on the eyes (in the female fashion)?
Hellz yes.
Remember the scene in My Own Private Idaho, with River Phoenix and Keanu Reeves kissing? That was really hot.
Question: for the guys, when you watch a two-women-only scene, do you project yourself as one of the women? Or do you mentally remain an observer?
Totally. Harry/Draco FTW!
I think by “no observed fulfillment” he might mean there’s no cum shot.
Lesbians are porn-effiecent. It’s sex with a greater density of women. Porn-wise, lesbians are like a jam sandwich without the sandwich, it’s just the jam. Also, in bloke-driven porn, you run the risk of potentially dangerous eye-slippage. If, in the climatic seconds, your eye slips from the girl to the bloke, the sudden shock can cause a whiplash event. And trust me, lower whiplash is not an injury you want to have to explain while you’re being stretchered out through your mother’s coffee morning.
I read somewhere that women in porn earn more than men, so in terms of money this isn’t true. OTOH, I wouldn’t pay for all-male porn, so maybe you got something here.
Bingo. Just as many men enjoy seeing faux lesbians go at it rather than the mousy volunteer at the local food bank and a heavyset spoken word artist, I think there’s a wider female audience for boy-on-boy action of the ‘Hey we’re hot straight guys and – oops, my tongue slipped’ variety.
Dammit I wanted to hear him explain it himself (prediction: something involving ‘man’s seed’).
As I’ve already said, porn is strictly entertainment (for me anyway). I don’t “project” myself into the scene just like I don’t put myself into the place of one of the characters in a comedy or an action thriller. I’m outside watching it not vicariously participating in it.
OK…But some guys have said that in a MFF scene they will identify with the male in the movie. So I was wondering if in a FF scene they identify with one of the women - ie, wishing they could be the one doing this to the other girl, thinking about how that tastes, etc.
I don’t think this is completely true. The huge popularity of “amateur” and “gonzo” porn shows that a lot of viewers are willing to sacrifice some level of perceived perfection in order to achieve a higher level of perceived authenticity. Some heterosexual male viewers would prefer watching non-lipstick lesbians having sex because they figure it looks more real.
I’m always an observer. I don’t pretend to be in it.
Google “clothed female/nude male” porn - you’ll find male degradation. Of course, this porn too is aimed at men - all kind of kinks out there.
Getting back to the OP: I think it’s got everything to do with evolutionary psychology. My SWAG is that males and females have contrasting reproductive strategies - male animals produce lots and lots of biologically inexpensive sperm cells, so the best strategy is to spread 'em around as much as you can with as many partners as you can; in human terms, you’d “hump a dawg ef it shook its ass right”.
Female animals make relatively few, expensive gametes, and the optimum there is not to waste them. Be picky about who you invite into your bed (or nest, or den, or wherever you get your kink on). Pick the mate with the best chance of passing his (and your) genes on to the next generation.
I’m simplifying like crazy, of course, and I am fully aware that biology is not destiny, and that sexuality is an extremely complex phenomenon that is ill-suited to sweeping generalizations.
But down in the limbic underworld of the reptile brain, I suspect that the elemental attraction of girl/girl action for a man is that the two women are choosing mates that violate their best reproductive strategies. So, the lizard brain thinks, if they will violate their sexual strategies with each other, maybe they’ll violate 'em with me! Hubba hubba! Lemme go find a pizza to deliver!
Okay, I know there are all kinds of weak spots in this theory, and that the intellects here at the Dope will spot and expose them. But this is my suspicion - that at the root, the attraction does have something to do with reproductive strategies.
Sure. I’m thinking of romance in a story or game rather than porn, though, so I don’t know if that would still apply.
I like the girl on girl porn, but I always end up muting it. I can’t stand hearing “oh yea oh yea oh yea oh yea” like a damn flock of horny lesbian seagulls. I usually watch amateur stuff because the girls haven’t learned that horrible habit yet. And I always see myself as an observer, not a participant. Gay porn doesn’t do anything for me. It’s just two dudes doin it, boooorrring.
Cover band name!
A friend of mine recently changed her relationship status on Facebook to “in a relationship with (obviously female name)”, and posted a new family picture - herself, her kids from her first marriage, her girl friend, and her girlfriend’s kids. The announcement was a surprise to me, but as long as she’s happy that’s fine.
Being a supportive friend, I clicked the “Like” link on Facebook for my friend’s announcement.
Then I went to my FB home page, where it said:
:o
Hmmm - I hadn’t thought of her that way before. 
FB’s privacy stinks, but the unintended humor is great!
Evolutionary psychology is pseudo-science. Your theory does nothing to explain the growing popularity of male/male porn among women (not just romance, but porn) or why women are watching more and more videos for their erotic satisfaction (but still prefer the written word in general).
And, for the record, Harry’s true love will always be Severus Snape.
Would a gay guy get turned on by looking at a man having sex with a women?
Wrong food simile, though. Lesbian sex is like a hot dog with two buns and no sausage. 
There are lesbians who watch boy-on-boy porn, almost exclusively. Wrap your head around that.
