why is everyone so perverted

[QUOTE=funny]
i mean if you ask anyone including women if they think seeing two guys making out is hot, i dont think they would say yes!
[/QUOTE]

You, sir, need to be introduced to the concept of yaoi.

[QUOTE=BMalion]
Well, be honest, unless it was amedical text, a National Geographic or a 'How to Draw the Female Figure" book it probubly was porn.

I believe it was basic girlie magazines, like Playboy. I suppose one could call it pornography, depending on one’s definition of the term. It certainly didn’t fall into the category of perversity.

Are you kidding? I’m hard pressed to think of anything more hot. Actually, I can’t. I think two guys being sexy with each other is just about the hottest thing ever.

[QUOTE=tdn]
I see that every now and then, almost always from really young women. I have a niece who was like that a few years back. Anything that even remotely hinted at anything mildly sexual was “Eww, gross!” I think she’s outgrown that now. (But hopefully she’s not into a “Bring it on, big boy!” phase yet.)

Back when I was a teenager I had female peers who, on overhearing us guys discussing anything sexual, would start slinging the word “pervert” around.

Silly girls :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah, that statement is pretty naive. The difference, I think, is that women, in general, tend to enjoy written erotica more than photographs. The slash communities are often as large, if not larger, than het fandoms attesting to a widespread interest in boys boinking.

It is if you’re doing it right.

That’s the one, thanks.

It wasn’t that Playboy is perverse. It’s that FHM and MAXIM are fetish mags. :rolleyes:

So you’ve firsted the opinion that it turns you on.
[/QUOTE]

Firsted? Firsting? Hmmm, maybe I’ll Google that and see what comes up… :eek: :smack:

Considering how many men think lesbian sex is hot, I think you could make a good argument that the perverts are the guys who don’t like it. Hell, I’m gay, and most of the porn I consume is girl-girl.

Really? Wow. That’s interesting.

What do you get out of it?

Do you mind if I ask why, if you like girl-on-girl pron, you prefer real-life men to real-life women? Or am I missing something, and that’s a stupid question?

I’m about 99% straight myself (there was this strange incident at high school that’s the other 1%), and generally I prefer girl-on-girl porn to girl-on-boy. Double the number of interesting bodies, both women usually taking the initiative and appearing to enjoy it, and no man to compete with (at least in my fantasies). So I can understand completely why some straight women like gay man porn (both visual and written). But I find it hard to understand why a 100% gay man or woman would be turned on by porn involving the other gender – not that I’d cal it perverted, just rather odd.

An orgasm, usually.

We have a few live lesbian sex shows in Thailand. /…/ the wife has accompanied me on occasion, but she finds the whole thing completely boring.
[/QUOTE]

That’s one strange wife you’ve gotten. Ask Cecil if she’s normal.

My rough guess about the mass appeal of lesbian porn for men is that theres sex happening without someone elses cock in the picture.

There are those who would say we’re both a little odd, but not because of lesbian porn.

For the record, just for the heck of it: Currently, the best live lesbian shows are in the Soi Cowboy bar area. Some prefer Suzie Wong Bar, where you have a minimum of four nude lesbians on stage, sometimes five, which breaks down to one couple at one end of the stage and a threesome at the other end. The problem with Suzie Wong is that there is a big column in the middle of the stage, so that if you are not sitting pretty much about in the middle, you can’t see the other end very well.

Sheba’s, on the other hand, has a wide-open stage, no column in the way. Four nude lesbians who alternately pair up and and get totgether for a foursome. Better than any video I’ve come across (pun intended).

Five Star Bar comes a close third (pun intended again). The show is not quite so good, but they are very creative. Fun to watch newbies sitting REAL close to the stage, wondering why no one else is, then they get soaked with the peppermint water the girls sop all over themselves. Not quite as good as the other bars, but the bar itself is an old favorite. The beer is the cheapest in the entire area (just under US$3 for good local brews), and the excellent Black Horse band plays 1960s and 1970s classics nightly.

Just a mundane pointless thing I had to share. :smiley:

It’s perverse whenever it doesn’t make pwecious widdle babies. Duh.

:smiley:

(I’m just joshin’.)

Actually, these days, it’s easier to convince a girl to do porn with another girl, than with a guy.

Doing it with a male stranger is ‘ickier’ and it’ll also affects your current or future boyfriend.

That’s one reason lesbian porn is made, although guys do like it. (And it’s mostly because of homophobia of watching another man’s cock.)

There, sir, you’ve summed up the attraction of lesbian porn. <rimshot>

Me, I guess I’m a chick* because I prefer porn where both people seem to have an affection for each other, where they seem to be “making love,” not mating like farm animals, though that ain’t bad, neither. As long as it isn’t pretend-coerced, which is a turn-off.

    • Macho swaggering is de rigeur for guys of my generation when talking about porn.

No, no rimming that I could tell. Just cunnilingus and kissing. :stuck_out_tongue:
