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?

Completely agree with you FoxesOnSocks. The only thing remotely close is pegging, which isn't even close to being the same, really.

I think the big part of attraction to M/M porn is like I said - both participants seem to be getting equal attention and the fact you know it's impossible for you to be in that scenario.

Plus, without going into too much detail here, in straight porn, it's always the woman who is the receiver and the man just finishes. I like how in M/M porn they tend to take turns in giving and receiving. It feels much more erotic and less objectifying. To me at least.

Well, any sexual relationship you are not in. WHat difference does it make if you're imagining Anne Hathaway and Evan Peters or Sebastian Stan and Evan Peters?

You've no more chance of waking up as Anne Hathaway than Evan Peters.

Or anything set in the historical past. I don't own a time machine.

Or set in space.

Or sex with aliens. Or elves. Or thought clouds.

Sorry, that last post was in answer to things more impossible than m/m sex.

Yes, I love my DP and find him sexually attractive. Hence why I've spent nearly 20 years of my life with him. Hence why I've never had an affair and nor has he. I'm allowed to fantasise about other men sometimes, as most people will tell you, their partner doesn't always tick every one of their likes or fetishes.

OK, so you think it's objectifying. What's wrong with that if the people involved are willing participants? The human body is attractive and you don't always need to be in love with a person you find sexually attractive. Plenty of people have one night stands with people they wouldn't have as a life partner - is there anything wrong with that?

Nearly all relationships are based on looks at the beginning, so you've done it yourself. Don't act all high and mighty just because you aren't able to understand that some people are able to differentiate between love and sexual gratification.

Well because when you boil Evan Peters and Anne Hathaway down, it's M/F which is the relationship of me and DP.

I am not going to wake up in the morning and be a man. That's why I find M/M porn attractive - it is a scenario I will never find myself in.

Bowiefan, I understand why it is more appealing. I only read m/m.

I was answering another poster who asked what was more impossible than m/m.

LastGirl I wasn't talking to you as if you were an imbecile, I was saying we all have equal but different points of view, but whatever.

FWIW, I don't 'need' to do anything. I do it because I want to

I suppose another part of the attraction is that I find men attractive. Women do nothing for me and when straight porn is almost entirely focused on them, I can't get off to it.

I find men attractive, so to see two men going at it is automatically going to be more attractive to me. Especially if they have abs

Ah, got ya. Carry on then! I'm just happy someone else knows about the cutie pie that is Evan Peters. Him and Matt Bomer are why I watch American Horror Story!

bowie. Thank you! I feel vindicated! My ex thought I was freaky for watching gay porn (I don't watch it daily, just now and again..... Ahem). I like looking at nice looking blokes and if they happen to be naked in a hot tub, well all the better....

Also, I didn't watch it in front of him! I confessed to it once and he was unimpressed..... Despite the fact that he liked looking at half-naked women in clown costumes. Yep. It's a 'thing'.

For me porn is not about finding them attractive, but getting off on the act. I've seen a few hot male on male ones but my favourite is male on female. There are some really good ones on xvideos where you can tell the guy is really trying to get her off and she is orgasming. I also only like ones with penetration and usually older men due to the power imbalance.
I do find women attractive but lesbian porn does nothing for me! Nowt as queer as folk Blush

I am familiar with Evan Peters due to DD's obsession. We were both annoyed by Hotel as he is effectively a baddie in that (understatement) and his appeal is his glorious angst in every other season.

But DD sits through my obsessions and I sit through hers.

I have a friend who said he didn't understand me watching gay porn. He liked lesbian porn though... Hmm

I'm pretty lucky because DP isn't arsed at all. He understands pretty well really. I think it's probably because I'm under no illusions that when he's away for 9 months a year he probably has to have a look at a dirty magazine now and again.

Have you been watching Roanoke? His lack of screen time so far has been irritating me. I'm fairly convinced he's the Pig-Man thing.

I have been watching Roanoake.

I like the plot but do not like the underuse of Evan or the reconstruction premise.

I feel it is under using the actors by doubling them up.

I liked Freak Show a lot, and Coven. Asylum was a bit unrelenting in its darkness but great plot with Quinto.

DD will collapse with the angst of it if he is the Pigman.
