I don’t watch any porn. I haven’t watched porn in quite some time. I used to prefer reading smutty fanfiction, instead, sometimes.
To begin with, it is strange to watch random people having sex. At least, with fanfiction, you get to know the characters, and the sex doesn’t seem empty or degrading.
The women in porn, tend to wear too much makeup, and have fake tits, also; they tend to be fitter than the men, but it is common for the men not to be very attractive, or fit. The woman is often degraded, in some way, which I don’t like; I hate when the man cums on her face, or is rough with her, in some way. Porn sounds fake, because it is fake; the woman, and in some cases, the man, as well, are obviously not enjoying themselves. M/M and F/F have less of some of these issues, but still aren’t particularly great to watch.
I know this might not be a popular opinion, but you need to understand that some people are into BDSM. It is not considered abusive to them, that’s what they prefer. If it’s against their will, obviously that is a completely different situation
If you don’t like that, don’t watch it there are a lot of options
I’ve read romance books. I find the emotional connections fascinating. Maybe some part of me lives vicariously through novels that way (I’ve never been in a relationship). It’s the only way to bypass extreme distrust. Also, I wanted to add very mild romantic subplots to some of my novels. People love to read about love. I do like learning about everything, even if vicariously.
LOL, one time someone sent me a misspelled link to a site, and I ended up on a porn site, with lots of naughty pop-ups I had to close. She was mortified when I told her, because she’s religious (I did volunteer work for her organization). She didn’t believe me at first, until she clicked the link.
As for your question, I don’t know anything about the industry, but I think if it reaches addiction level, than it’s probably unhealthy. But then again, people with schizophrenia face a lot of rejection, so something has to fill the void.
Yes you are right. It was a risk. My boyfriend came down with HIV in 1987 back when it was a death sentence. I spent a lot of time caring for him. I’m still HIV negative.
I don’t watch porn anymore.
I think it ruins my sexual sensitivity.
And ruins my vagina.
I don’t like how the woman are treated, and men too. In porn. They are real people.
I’ve heard of suicides with porn actresses more than once.
Plus, I am seeing someone, although we are only dating temporarily, he is enough for me.
I will remain texting friends with him when our dating relationship ends.
I agree. I think here it used to be a problem going to a pharmacy requesting syringes. They would question you. Back when I was the only guy working in the convenience store, the guys would come find me to sell them condoms. They were too embarrassed to ask the woman I worked with.
But then again, people with schizophrenia face a lot of rejection, so something has to fill the void.
