 At the time when my own sexual identity was fluid, I consciously chose and performed heterosexuality

Pornography   Question: In heterosexual porn films the great majority of the shots are of the man's penis entering various female orifices. We see one or more male ejaculations in explicit and exaggerated detail. How can the men enjoying watching this be wholly heterosexual?

And where do you draw the line? Sports contain incredibly toned men getting pretty handsy with one another. Don't get me wrong, the penis-close-ups are not my favorite parts; I don't go and freeze frame them, but I don't mind it - it's part of the act.  As far as the money shots go, holy crap it's so damn hilarious. It's like in Shakespearian plays, there's always comic relief. That's right, I just drew a comparison between Shakespeare and hardcore pornography. 10 Pts     Rate Answer      Flag this answer  Nonsense  Spam/Offensive  Comments (be the first to comment) Answer 2 out of 5 by SaraMonster the Swami on Mar 4, 2008 at 2:48 pm Permalink they pretend like its them.

I like to watch porn, i dont care what the man looks like but the girl has to be smoking hot, big boobs, not fat and white. I know what i like. Sexually its the woman that i want to see not the man. I only just started watching porn with men in it. Usually it was just two girls....Does that make me gay?  Freddy Says remove all moderation points Mar, 05 2008 at 12:11 PM I honestly have no idea. I think that depends on what you want to *do*, not watch. However I have often though guys enjoying watching a money shot may be not classically heterosexual  SaraMonster the Swami Mar, 05 2008 at 12:38 PM LOL, well i'm totally NOT gay. I dont like women like that but in films for some reason i do. and yeah, i know what you are saying. Kinda gay right? Answer 3 out of 5 by Malikitts on Feb 11, 2008 at 8:14 am Permalink I wondered too, a male friend informed me it was so that the man could picture it as his own penis entering the various places 9 Pts     Rate Answer      Flag this answer  Nonsense  Spam/Offensive  Comments show all comments   Malikitts Feb, 11 2008 at 09:47 AM lol, true enough. I really can't answer that...hmmm....makes you wonder though  Freddy Says remove all moderation points Feb, 11 2008 at 09:49 AM Do women want to see it?  Malikitts Feb, 11 2008 at 10:16 AM I can't speak for all women, but it doesn't particularily appeal to me.... Answer 4 out of 5 by MargaretMcGhee on Feb 9, 2008 at 1:52 pm Permalink Ihave womdered about this too. But, the "cum shot" is some kind of verification that the sex was for real. 9 Pts     Rate Answer      Flag this answer  Nonsense  Spam/Offensive  Comments  Freddy Says remove all moderation points Feb, 09 2008 at 01:56 PM But so often? And with implausible volumes of ejaculate? . I believe that men who like watching other men have orgasms cannot be heterosexual. They may be all sorts of other things, but hetero they are not Answer 5 out of 5 by denidowi on Jan 4, 2009 at 2:47 pm Permalink Well, that's probably a fair Q there, Freddy. It seems to me that what actually happens in the overall sexual engagement is that in the pre or even foreplay stage, the attention is all on the beauty of the female form, and a dance or stretch out by her would do it nicely, thank you very much. Basically SHE is facilitating him, and inspiring him to great sexual heights [which is physically displayed by his hard on erection]. But the male organ then becomes the dominating, demanding feature in the show once she has raised him. So although the girl's role of facilitation does not actually change, the visual focus and attention shifts to the demanding feature of the show - his powerful penis. For me, the part the hetero enjoys seeing is her; but he would also enjoy seeing that the girl has brought him to some fruition and has satisfied her part in completing his act for him. Obviously, I am just dealing here with the male satisfaction, which was the topic you were addressing. In reality, of course, the girl needs as much pleasure and satisfaction as she is capable of also. 0 Pts     Rate Answer      Flag this answer  Nonsense  Spam/Offensive  Comments (be the first to comment) Add an Answer In heterosexual porn films the great majority of the shots are of the man's penis entering various female orifices.
