    Personally, I think it's nice every now and again, especially when you're gay/lesbian because you have a lot less exposure to other gay people (well this accounts for me anyway) whereas straight people find it way easier to find straight people they like.

    I've only ever met one openly gay person, and he's really nice. But he's shy and self conscious and i find that really unattractive. Plus I'm closeted so I guess that wouldn't help when you're trying to find someone...

    ANYWAY I was just wondering what your opinions on the topic are! Obviously if you feel uncomfortable about the subject, please just press the back button because I don't mean to pry I'm just curious about your opinions :icon_bigg(&&&)

    It's...educational I guess? I mean, I've learned plenty of different positions and things that can be done!

    In all seriousness, and actually the part about learning different thing is actually true, but I think porn is fine provided that it's taken without the intent of comparing yourself. Too many people develop body image issues because they see all the cute/hot/sexy guys doing porn, and it can project that wrong image. I was partly victim of it as well, although not so much anymore.

    Still, once in a while, ain't too bad. Doesn't beat my imagination, but sometimes not having to imagine can be great too. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

  5. I am not a big fan of porn. Mostly because lesbian porn is so over done, but my younger brother introduced me to the world of boob gifs. Wow...now that is something I really like.

    It's great to randomly get an email of boobs.

    I'm not particularly interested in it. But those who are, go for it.

    IMHO, as someone who watches porn, I think that if you're watching porn to supplement the lack of IRL gay friendships/relationships/interactions, you're using for the wrong reasons and quite likely stunting your view of what a gay friendship/relationship/interaction should be.

    On the other hand, if you keep in mind that porn is about sex and a highly manufactured interaction (ex. not organic), then it's totally fine.

    I think the idea of porn isn't bad, but the porn industry itself is really fucked up. I know that there are companies that do treat their employees nicely, but the big ones don't and also perpetuate a lot of racist, sexist, homophobic, and transphobic crap. Also, I just find watching real people having sex awkward.

    I do read erotica, though.

    I wonder what the origins of porn are. Wouldn't that be fun to know? I think I remember either reading or seeing on TV that orgies were very common in Roman times in Greece and Rome, not sure how accurate that is though.

    I totally understand that. Tbh I would much much rather an actual relationship with another gay person but I'm afraid I haven't been that fortunate to have found one. I realise that porn is totallyd dramatised and I'm not addicted to it either, it doesn't interfere with my social life at all but I do like it every once in a while :icon_wink

    As far as watching it, it's fine and I don't care if someone likes porn or not. It is what it is.

    The only thing that I think about is what impact that type of work has on those who act in them. Some people are able to get over it and do something else when their careers end, or walk away from that industry and do something else. Others don't do as well. I'm basing this on reading articles on past porn stars when they show up on the side of my homepage.
