porn = boring - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people coming out

The past couple of days porn has started to really bore me, so much so I am not even getting hard from it. Although my imagenation is well, makes it more intresting. Any body else get that?

**Gerry** · 1st Sep 2011, 03:21 PM

That's totally normal. Seeing the same types of images or videos can be very routine and boredom from doing so will probably come and go. Like I said, it's normal. Don't worry about it. I'm sure before long you'll get interest in it again.

Porn is boring ...

The only kind I find remotely interesting is lesbian porn. But most of that is rubbish too, made for straight guys. There are a few gems though.

Steve712 · 1st Sep 2011, 04:26 PM

Most of it is very boring, I agree.

Noir · 1st Sep 2011, 04:36 PM

I couldn't agree more. An older friend of mine would always lend me her new yaoi books which--I discovered quickly--are not my cup of tea. I absolutely adore anything with subtly hinted gay relationships because it's sort of sweet and endearing, but otherwise...I get the spooky feeling that I'm reading the same bland storyline over and over again with really bad artwork and all they do is change it a little. Not to mention, a lot of it is just awkward and gross....

It has no imagination, in my opinion. That, or waaaaaay too much.

I really like lesbian erotic stories. That's the best kind of "smut"

kiersten · 1st Sep 2011, 05:34 PM

Honestly, porn really doesn't do too much for me. Like you, Veronica, IF I watch porn, it tends to be lesbian porn, which is absolutely ridiculous in & of itself, although, as you said, there are the odd ones that aren't too bad. Lesbian porn made for women by women is a bit rare & hard to find, not to mention it's still an idealized ideal of what the industry thinks women are looking for in lesbian porn, so left to my own devices, written erotica & my own imagination are the way I usually go. I watch porn, especially lesbian porn, & most of the time I just end up getting depressed becuase it's just a reminder of how wrong my body is in the first place...

Porn is extremely boring, hence why I've never watched it apart from seeing one uninteresting bit of it. My imagination is where it's at.

Mad Man L · 2nd Sep 2011, 01:20 AM

Occasionally I get bored, but its generally because I'm being picky.

Bi As A Kite · 2nd Sep 2011, 01:20 AM

I find slash fiction verrrry...interesting.

Porn can get tedious, for me it's gotten to the point where I find someone in slightly attractive clothing more interesting than someone stark bollock naked.

might just wanna give ur self a break.

Porn is dull and for me it makes my imagination more lazy if that makes sense.

That's what happens in my experience, too.

Yeah, I find myself going, oh, nice shoes, or nice dress, and that's the most interesting part ...
