more cock shots - yes or no?

After finally watching game of thrones, DP and I have found ourselves with a little disagreement that hopefully Mumsnetters can clear up...

During the series there were about 2-3 1 second cock shots and every time DP would say 'ooh a cock shot for you' (because if you haven’t seen it there are a million and one naked women shots) and no matter how many times I tell him 'I personally don't want to see penises flopping about on screen and I doubt many other women (and men) do either' he just wouldn't have it...

For me, if Jon Snow started whipping his cock out every two minutes I would find it really off putting lol

So I put it to you... would you (as a woman) like to see more cock shots on tv or would you find it off putting?

Vote: YABU for I LOVE COCKS AND WE NEED TO SEE MORE OF THEM ON TV

Or

YANBU for no, cock shots are off putting and I’d rather leave it to my imagination

Gave up on GoT because the pointless nudity and unrealistic sex scenes (3 mobile young ladies sprawled naked over one bloke etc) made it feel like I had invaded the imagination of a 14 year old boy.

Just shown dp the thread and he can't accept it... he said 'you're all prudish librarians and if you ask the girls on onlyfans they would all be in favour'

Nope. Women don't generally like ogling penises. Women who claim to are probably mostly just saying it to stroke men's egos. Men are much much more infatuated with their own genitalia than any woman ever will be. Grin

No offence but he’s a bit dim if he thinks the women on onlyfans are being genuine 😂 they are doing it for your money you idiot!!

Is that what’s he’s into? Gross

Beamur · 08/12/2020 18:27

The girls on Onlyfans are being paid to say this presumably? Doesn't mean that they actually mean it..

Like a PP I'm in a LTR and quite enjoy them as a point of comparison.

PassataQueenofBritain · 08/12/2020 18:47

It betrays what he thinks of women- "girls" on onlyfans? Hmm

Susanwouldntlikeit · 08/12/2020 18:52

Oh just love this thread especially the wording of the vote choices 😂
I had no idea all this was in TV as we have had a licence for a few years, but am kinda tempted now...

His ego clearly can't take the truth 😂 he knows we're right he just can't handle it and yes that's what I said... 'they're doing it for the money you imbecile'

That's what I said to him... I could tell by his grin while he was reading the thread that he knows I was right really... It's a lot for him to take in and he's having trouble admitting defeat... 😂

@VettiyaIruken

The penis is a million times less attractive than most men seem to think.

I don't know how they can look down at it and think hell yeah, just got to show this beauty off. Women need to see this magnificent beast.

🤣🤣🤣
Kissthepastrychef · 08/12/2020 19:15

No desire whatsoever to look at penises on screen.

ItsAlwaysSunnyOnMN · 08/12/2020 19:15

Bless your dp has just realised that women have been lying to him for years

Let’s not hope he starts a conversation about faking Wink

I had to give him a little hug and tell him it'll all be ok 😂

I would rather not see any penises on TV, I don’t understand why anyone would...

But having said that, I do like a man who has a nice penis but for my eyes only 👀

jambeforeclottedcream · 08/12/2020 20:36

@dottiedodah

At the risk of sounding old fashioned ,Too much gratiitious Sex makes me turn off .Have given up with BBC2 Industry .Just souless mating IMO .Even DH said it seems like a soft porn movie! No desire to see any Dicks waving about thank you! Also didnt BBC get told off for too much Sex?
Came on to this thread to ask of anyone had been watching Industry. It is rather graphic especially for a bbc drama

@Morechocolateneeded

I quite like the more natural continental style of showing full shots of both men and women, without it being a big deal.
I agree with this. I wish we Brits didn't regard nudity and sex just as as titillation or ooh matron. I suppose it's not as bad as the Americans, for whom nudity is the work of the devil (hence the unnatural bras in bed scenes or weirdly, knickers on both sexes, after they dtd, or next morning) They're just bodies. We've all got one.
BilboBercow · 09/12/2020 09:54

Although Kit Harrington is very pretty, I don't get the sense that his cock is in any way exceptional.

MycatiscalledTuppence · 12/12/2020 20:06

I agree. Both sexes look far better covered up, apart from small children.

blissfulllife · 12/12/2020 20:08

Fancied Tom hardy for years. Watched bronson. Seen his cock. Lost interest.

NoDontDoIt · 12/12/2020 20:12

Nah, dont need to see it. Only cock i would be interested in viewing is the one thats literally about to go into me for real. That has to be attached to someone who has been through extensive vetting.

bemusedmoose · 12/12/2020 21:50

Why do men think women find cocks good to look at!?! Can't say I've ever seen one and thought 'oooh that's nice!' they all look pretty ugly, though I have seen a few that
have turned me right off!! 😂 As much as I love to drool over Jason Mamoa, pretty sure his manhood looks as weird as every other bloke's and really have no desire to find out.

That being said I dont want tits and muffs on my screen either. I'm not a prude but really don't need willies and boobs every where.

Despite being straight I do think women win the prize for looking better naked. Who the hell can find a dangly turkey neck attractive!? It's basically a urine hose with hairy stabilisers!! 😂 😂

CatsWhiskers1976 · 12/12/2020 21:51

I've always thought it was weird why there is such a difference between flaccid and erect penises on screen. Why is it that erect penises are more offensive than that same penis flaccid? So, you could theoretically show a 6" flaccid penis but not a 6" erect penis, even though they are both the same size. Why is one deemed suitable viewing but no the other? Why are vulvas ok? Why are tits and nipples okay?
What is the arbitrary cut off point? Is a semi erect penis ok? Is it the angle of the penis/amount of blood flow inside it? It's just so mental! It's just a fleshy body part like many others. Maybe not the most attractive thing in the world according to your tastes, but what makes it more distasteful than an arse?
