Do other straight women watch gay porn?

When DP is on deployment and I'm feeling... well, y'know... gay porn is my go to thing to get me in the mood. I'm not sure why, but straight porn involving a man and a woman does nothing for me.

Is it the same for other women?

I much prefer gay porn. Nothing worse than seeing a man pounding a woman.

ConvincingLiar · 11/10/2016 19:58

Which variety of gay? Men with men or women with women?

The answer is surely that some people do (but I'd guess a minority). If it makes you happy and its ethical porn, then it's not a problem.

Boobyroof · 11/10/2016 20:05

I feel the same. I think a lot of the straight porn is done with the view of turning the man on. I prefer the gentler stuff also.

BowieFan · 11/10/2016 20:07

Men with men, and mainly just blowjobs and a bit of sex really. I think what PP said is right, most straight porn is all about getting the man off and so focuses on the naked body of the woman and her face.

Give me some abs and a nice bum any day of the week!

Gay or lesbian?

ICancelledTheCheque · 11/10/2016 20:08

Nope.

All of the women I know who watch porn, watch gay (m/m) porn. Het porn is male centred, usually dodgy and horribly focussed on male pleasure (so woman is nothing more than a living sex toy) Personally I'd rather read porn erotica that watch videos but on the rare occasion the urge strikes it'll always be m/m or f/f.

BowieFan · 11/10/2016 20:21

I'm the same MrsDmitri. I'd rather read it but most of the time when the urge strikes, it strikes. Yes, I would rather watch M/M over M/F to be honest.

Yep, and I do tend to read not watch but, yes.

fluffypacman · 11/10/2016 20:23

I tend to watch girl on girl stuff but don't like it when it turns into a gynaecological exam. Not sure I'm 100% straight though. Never tried it irl mind to know if it's something I'd enjoy. Male &female porn is too in your face and even the girl on girl stuff I suspect is largely for men. Where do you find ethical porn?

LucyLot · 11/10/2016 20:26

I thought I was weird only liking m/m stuff I thought I had an odd fetish!

Yardley42 · 11/10/2016 20:27

Yep! Girl bits don't turn me on and straight porn is so often incredibly misogynistic and rapey. Double boy bits is way more fun! I read m/m too.

BowieFan · 11/10/2016 20:28

Haha I don't think you're weird. I have no interest in having a go at lesbianism but I'll happily watch F/F. M/M is my preference though. Jake Bass does funny things to me...

Het porn is just grim though. The twisted power dynamics are a massive turn off and much less present in gay porn. It's only erotic if both parties look like they are genuinely enjoying themselves - if that criteria is fulfilled then I could find either kind of gay porn erotic.

ClopySow · 11/10/2016 20:49

Love a bit of gay porn i do.

MrsDmitriTippensKrushnic · 11/10/2016 20:50

My friend like to reblog pictures and videos of Colby Keller on Tumblr. He's nice, looks like someone you'd spend an evening drinking cider with, and is very easy on the eyes and is an actual grown up.

JellyBelli · 11/10/2016 20:51

I'm not allowed to watch porn. It makes me cry with laughter.

Wilderbeast · 11/10/2016 20:52

No. not at all

AidingAndAbetting · 11/10/2016 20:53

I don't watch porn but about 90% of the erotica I read is m/m.

ChippyDucks · 11/10/2016 20:53

Yes. But just lesbian porn.

SheDoneAlreadyDoneHadHerses · 11/10/2016 20:55

I'd happily watch F/F porn over M/F - M/F and I'm generally pulling holes in the plot, but F/F just seems............ I dunno, more female focused (surprise!) and therefore of more of an interest to me.

Hetero over here btw.

Not watched M/M but after PP it seems something I need to see

sonlypuppyfat · 11/10/2016 21:01

There's a whole world out there I don't know exists, I can't imagine anything that would make me watch it

SansasEscape · 11/10/2016 21:03

I only watch lesbian porn, but only have sex with men. Wtf is that all about?

Wellywife · 11/10/2016 21:09

Definitely not! While it's everyone's right to do what they want I find the thought of it revolting. Certainly not a turn on - ugh.
