More thoughts. Porn is simply filmed human sexuality. It is not dirty. It is beautiful. It is filmed intimacy. Why would finding that attractive make anyone bad?
Because when you think about it, it is not filmed intimacy in the genuine sense, it is a mass-market, shallow
facade of intimacy created to be popular with a target audience and make money.
I don't think that is attractive either.
Do you think any of the performers actually
love each other? Of course not. They just do what a director tells them to and collect a pay cheque and possibly some sexual satisfaction.
Some love each other, some just like each other. Maybe you haven't noticed but some are addicted to intimacy and are excessively loving. That is one reason some choose the job. It is why you see some of the same people together again and again. They more then like working with those people and the producers are more then happy to put it on film and make money off it.
To me, equating pornography with what I believe intimacy should entail is like saying some mass produced food taken mouldy from a bin is quality gourmet sustenance.
What are you watching?
Sometimes you can see it in the faces of the "actors". That they're either not happy, or they're just bored, or it's even just that they're faking their excitement completely. And I find that tremendously sad.
Ya sometimes not happy, more often sometimes bored, but there are many who are not either of those. Some are downright giddy and bubbling over with enthusiasm. I don't think fake is attractive either.
I'm not saying it's "wrong" or having a dig (just see my above post), merely that I can see why people object to it and I think there is some reason behind that argument.
I know that I for one don't like what it represents, even if I may feel obliged to use it to fill what's missing in my life at present.
Sound like you subscribe to the myth that all women find it disgusting. I used to think that. It is totally untrue.
