Hellll no....gimmie the good parts, prOn serves a purpose because we are all naturally, to some degree or another, vouyeristic.
Why only ask "men" ??? I guess nobody will vote for #3, because there is ALWAYS something for everybody, even if you're a midget or a midget with a donkey or a donkey without a midget, there's ANY kind of pr0N for everyone's taste out there. Brings me to a question someone posed to me a few weeks ago, and I never could ask it here in a thread. WHY IS IT THAT WE WATCH/like/enjoy/KEEP PR0N? The reason why I ask is as follows: A friend of mine, who shall remain nameless, said SHE caught her boyfriend with pr0n on his PC at home, and he could NOT answer why he "[liked] having pr0n" on his machine. She got upset mainly because she didn't know, but she wanted to know the reason why HE had it on there. He could NEVER answer. My assumption was that he was curious to find what that was like, and since they're engaged, she at least wanted a sincere explanation and could forgive him for it, but I don't know if she ever has. WHY IS IT THAT WE WATCH/like/enjoy/KEEP PR0N? My answer: If it is something "weird": CURIOSITY. (see: donkeys, midgets, etc.) If it is "soft" pr0N: FANTASY of seeing our better half or potential better half like that. (see: Victoria's Secret's catalogue) If it is "hardc0re" pr0n: to "maybe" LEARN something to use at home?? (see: movies with known adult actors) As long as it doesn't interfere with work, personal life, or family time, I say there's nothing wrong with it. Somewhat like "a little pr0N once in a while never hurt 'nobody' " ? Please answer my question in bold and, ladies, what would upset you about US HAVING pr0n??
Like it, love it , yes I do! I've said it before but people make sex and nudity taboo because it make life more fun. Face it there are 6 billion boobs in the world and they all look about the same. If you saw a thousand of them walking down the street every day you wouldn't notice any of them. The same with sex, how do you think we got to 6 billion people on this planet? They are all the result of a sex act but we keep it hush hush so we can get excited about it. My only problem with p0rn is that virtually all of it is so poorly done. In a muti-billion dollar business where is the market for quality? Who is the Speilberg of p0rn? How hot a film could you make with just the tiny little $40,000,000 budget like Richard Rodriguez needs for his movies? Then again Stanley Kubrick spent a ton on Eyes Wide Shut and it was still horrible, so maybe the subject matter doesn't require an 'in depth' treatment. I'm glad it's taboo but still legal, I just wish the product was better.
Bring on the pr0N funny movie names... these are some of the ones that were popular while I used to work at U.S. Video Express: LEZ-Be Friends Smears (Cheers) SINderella (Cinderella) Penetrator (he'll be back.) Buttman and Throbbin (Dynamic Duo) No Man's Land (the series) White Men Can't Hump (Starring Woody, not Harrelson)
I created this poll only for men because at lunchtime today I generalized all men when I said, "All men like p*rn." By creating this survey, I can at least put some numbers behing my generalization. I would also like to know the percentage of women, but there are very few women that log onto this bbs, so a poll here would probably not be the most accurate representation of women in general. If such a poll could get responses from hundreds of women, that would be a better assessment.
The soft stuff you see on Cinemax and the like appear to have much higher production values than the shot-with-camcorder hardcore stuff you find in the stores, and as you alluded to earlier it doesn't do much. There's more time wasted on terrible plots and less action. Of course, there is the bonus of not having to look at schlongs. Speaking of which, why are p*rn vhs boxes so huge? Doesn't seem like it would help its customers that want to be descreet.
The boxes are bigger so that designers can fit more pictures of "previews" of the movie on the back with more detail and people can read them faster on the back. Also, a prominent picture on the front gets you a faster rental than a smaller box. I read that when someone answered the question at an AVN Conference. Yes, I read the AVN magazine for the articles. After that, we did a survey when I worked at the Video Store, and found that customers went for the BRIGHT, LARGER boxes rather than the smaller, duller covers. THere's some RESEARCH for you.
Women don't want you to have p*rn because they don't want to have to do the pooper thing. Really, women are vain but have weak self images. They think their man won't think they are as desirable as the p0rn chicks. Little do they know that as insatiable as the p0rn chicks look on film, they ain't having anything to do with anyone like us ( and they ain't doing the pooper thing without a payday)
Lord heavens no! I do not like filthy misspelled p*rnography. I do, however, like to dabble in the fine visual arts...
Even when I force myself to watch it, I find it boring. -droxford is right, no one ever believes that I would rather watch A&E more than anything else on TV or video.
Ya learn something new everyday! So do they plan on introducing jumbo DVD cases to stay with the times?
Funny you should mention that. I almost always watch p*rn from the 80's/early 90's for that very reason. Better production, storylines and plots. And yes, my friends think I'm weird for liking this stuff better than the recent stuff. I'm just really not into the whole backdoor, spitting in orifaces kind of guy.
I agree completely: the 80's stuff was a million times better. the pooper and spit stuff doesn't do it for me.
