Why don't you watch porn together with Summer Rose? or go to a Gentlemen's Club together as a naughty adventure you both share?<BR/><BR/>If Summer Rose doens't like porn, it's probably because she's never seen any that was appealing to her (let's face it 98% is utter crap)Cinnamonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05543995331864898424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12164738.post-1162414546937791022006-11-01T12:55:00.000-08:002006-11-01T12:55:00.000-08:00Hmm, like many others, I've never seen either show...Hmm, like many others, I've never seen either show. Porn isn't easily defined. Even the court justices many years ago said something along the lines of "I'll know it when I see it." So it's kind of fuzzy.

But the line is sometimes blurry, depending on the subject matter. They can certainly be voyeuristic in nature and pretty freakin' hot from time to time.

I've never been to one. Never intend to do so either. I have been to 1 bachelor party with a stripper. I didn't find myself very entertined and felt out of place there the whole time she was there.<BR/><BR/>Watching these shows don't get me turned on or aroused at all. I consider a movie to be "porn" by what is in the content of the movie. If the movie is based soley on sex it is porn. If it shows the "money shot" it is porn. <BR/><BR/>On the other hand if it is a movie like say Fatal Attraction where there is a VERY erotic sex scene in it (my all time favorite sex scene) that is not considered porn.<BR/><BR/>These shows are not porn in my view because they are more of the documenary genre. Even the shows that have interviews with porn stars are not actually porn because they blur out most of the genital shots.<BR/><BR/><B>Satan</B> That may just be you. Or it could very well just be me. I just don't have anything to rub out when I watch that stuff.<BR/><BR/><B>taja</B> What would your definition of porn be? Through watching the episodes that I have watched I have learned many new "tricks" that I now use on a semi regular basis. Just like when I read the book '<I>The Joy of Sex: A Gourmet Guide to Lovemaking</I>'. I actually read that book a few times. The first time was when I was 17. 2 years before I had sex for the first time. I wanted to learn all that I could learn to know how to please a partner. I am still on that quest to learn all that I can.<BR/><BR/><B>Desmond</B> I don't watch these shows to be engaged on an erotic level. As I explained in my response to Taja, it is more of a quest to learn all that I can in the matters of sex. Thge more I learn the better I will be to give pleasure to my wife. That is what sex is all about to me. Giving her pleasure. <BR/><BR/>I view porn to be the same as you do. Demeaning to women. Sex should be more than just walking into a room and doing what they do. There is no feelings or emotion to it. I actually find the "money shot" to be rather digusting. but that's just me.<BR/><BR/>As far as me putting in there that I'm cheating on Summer, that's just how I feel if I do watch porn. When I was looking at porn online on a semi regular basis I felt like i was cheating on her and taking something away from her. I feel the same way about masterbation.<BR/><BR/><B>just me</B> You brought up something that I totally didn't think of. Reading some of the erotic blogs out there. Heck I've even written a few of those posts. Most of the stuff that is viwed on Real Sex in my oppinion could be talked over with a group of friends as well. It's just a little more "out there" in the sexual realm.<BR/><BR/>Where are these friends that talk openly about sex anyways? I got no one but the net to talk about sex with.<BR/>CHConfused Husbandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09526136327053673871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12164738.post-1161985705479632622006-10-27T14:48:00.000-07:002006-10-27T14:48:00.000-07:00I think I need to agree a lot with Desmond. While...I think I need to agree a lot with Desmond. While I would be much more pissed off if My Sweet were having sex with another woman, I still think it is like going to a strip club. It takes you to a place that can sully a powerful and sensitive part of us. And watching Real Sex (sorry, never saw the other) is different than reading some of the blogs about the sex part of people's marrages. I usually feel that what is written in a blog is something that may be said amoung friends over a glass of wine or beer. Honest stuff about a real part of married life (and something I wish the church would be a little freer talking about). But when I've watched Real Sex it was because I wanted to see some nudity, and I walked away horney but a bit less soft in my spirit.Just Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10334958453212240945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12164738.post-1161968180334479712006-10-27T09:56:00.000-07:002006-10-27T09:56:00.000-07:00Hmmmm. . . I'm inclined to say that anything that ...Hmmmm. . . I'm inclined to say that anything that engages you on an erotic level is a place you should be very, very careful about going to. It's been a while since I've seen any really nasty 'porn' ('money shots', etc), and for the most part, I would think of that stuff as pretty crude and demeaning, anyway. But a 'real movie' like 'Basic Instinct', say, can actually engage me on a more 'erotic' level than straight-out porn, because it engages the emotional/relational element of sex in a way that porn typically can't be bothered with.<BR/><BR/>Either way, I think of it as if I'm sitting in someone else's bedroom while they're having sex - I really shouldn't be here. . .<BR/><BR/>And, I really do want to 'reserve' my sexuality for my wife, and have it be 'set aside' for purposes of our marital union. . .<BR/><BR/>Do I think that it's the same as "cheating on your wife, you perv"? I'm not sure. . . But I want to take seriously when Jesus says, "anyone who looks on a woman lustfully commits adultery in his heart". . . Perhaps he's intentionally overstating it, but I'd still want to take it seriously.<BR/><BR/>But that's me. . .

You don't stand around with them and 'rub one out' (nice phrase!). Nevertheless many people would consider strip shows to be a type of porn.<BR/><BR/>And what about movies? Quite a few movies have turned me on, yet they're not porn. Is an erotic scene in a movie porn just because it turns me on? Or is a movie with pink bits not porn when it doesn't turn me on? (The bumping uglies scene in the Danish movie 'the Idiots' is a case in point - full view sex, but not erotic at all).<BR/><BR/>'Porn' is a poorly defined, subjective term.cinnamon girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08547856129124479433noreply@blogger.com
