5. For sure. More erotica, I'd say.
But as a teenager, I watched stuff you'd definitely call porn.

Anyone who said they've never seen it is lying. Everyone has seen it SOMEWHERE unless you live in Saddam's spider hole.

8. Magazines, yes...
...Internet, no. Videos, not as much anymore. Gay porn is getting pretty boring and for some reason there are almost NO beds in gay porn anymore.

I thought it was pretty cool as a horny teenager. But as I got older, it lost its appeal.

10. PORN ROCKS!!!
As long as everyone involved is consenting to what's being done to them and looks like they're having a good time. I don't like non-con and porn where people look bored is just sad.

15. Some fundies would have you believe anyone that views porn
will also hang out around playgrounds with a bag of candy. So far it hasn't seem to have done me any harm. I could take it or leave it.

33. Not a big fan of porn.
I've seen it - more times than I would like to admit. But, in general, I don't think it promotes a healthy attitude about sex and relationships.:(

41. I agree
most of the time, it's degrading to women, and the rest of the time it's degrading to sex in general, and how sex should be an expression of love between two adults, not a greasy encounter with the pizza boy.

49. Internet & movies. Prefer older ones that have a storyline...
New ones are just a compilation of "Wham, bam, thank you mister!" scenes. And they're so common that it's the same thing fifty times over. Big deal. The few that are decent are worth watching, but a lot of porn I'd rented in the past is hardly worth the $60 purchase price. Try 60 cents, and even then it's still yawning material.

Old ones often have a story mixed in with the steamy stuff. I won't name names... :evilgrin:

The older ones are the more way-out as well. I can think of a purported all time classic ("DT") that is a little too way-out for my liking... One from 1980 has a surprisingly cool plotline ("S..NY"), but in the end they depict an 'incest' scene. :Puke: (still, I prefer that in terms of plot over the lunacy that was "DT"... it's not just incest, it's how they portray it. It's quite creepy and meant to be a form of revenge...)

Good grief, I'm critiquing porn... :eyes: But I'm not getting off on it. :evilgrin:

There needs to be an option that says "I would if I could, but the Wife/Girlfriend would slap the snot out of me if I did".

51. Yes. I have mixed feelings about it.
Watching porn turns me on. I do also think that it can be educational (ideas for positions, foreplay, and such). Some of it is really good too.
On the otherhand, much of it is degrading to women and sex in general. Some of the stuff that I have seen has really distrurbed me, mostly stuff involving violence with the sex and I am not talking about S&M.
My husband and I both watch porn. We often watch it together but are alright with the other watching it alone if the other is not around. Unlike my husband though, I don't enjoy trying to actually do stuff while watching pron, too distracting.

Much rather be doing it than watching it. It serves no purpose anymore.

54. Um....of course
Second answer: yes :bounce:

The actors involved need to unionize, but aside from my political disagreement that they should need more protection in regards to workers' rights, porn in of itself is pretty awesome for all practical purposes. The only sport I like to watch anyway.
