Is Gay Porn too Tame?

Of course we all have different tastes, I understand that. And I can understand why some (arguably most) women prefer soft-core porn to anything I certainly would ever watch. But I’m baffled by so much of the gay porn. Baffled, as in, who watches that shite?

I’d really like to know. And I invite insights.

Gay men know, understand, and are completely cool with sex for the sake of itself. That’s one of the things that makes being gay rock – there’s no discussion of emotional commitment required for a quick online hookup. Doesn’t even cross our minds, really. So why would we ever hold back on our porn?

At its most obvious, porn allows for safe, voyeuristic, vicarious wanking. It’s all a little fantasy. And isn’t the point of fantasy all about getting the chance to do shit you otherwise wouldn’t be able to do, with guys you otherwise mightn’t get near? I think we can all agree on that generalization. But, because they are cool with sex for the sake of sex, gay guys already do all sorts of shit with all kinds of other guys. The fantasy element – the divisive line between hard- and soft-core – would be the non-use of condoms. But most gay porn is tucked-in safe and sound.

Why?!

Sure there’s The Big Risk; but straight porn gets around it somehow. I can’t even count (and I tried once) the women online who are happily taking up to 10 loads in the ass without a single cut in the camera. These girls are celebrities. There must be a system in place. I think the producers of gay porn should make a few phone calls.

Let’s say I can imagine that some guys might prefer soft-core porn. What I can’t imagine is there’s not a much greater demand for raunchier line-crossing man-tertainment.

Let’s all stand up and demand more filth. Our fantasies are worth it.

Be safe!
