Sometime earlier this week I sat in a room with three of my female friends, and for some reason the topic they ended up talking about was porn, and guys. I kept my mouth shut the entire time, because it was too entertaining to listen to them agree with each other and still manage to argue a little.
One of the girls asked if anyone had ever watched a porn movie, then everyone made grimaces and sounds that ultimately meant the same as “eeeew!”(I did not make a sound or a face). Eventually I came to the conclusion that they had seen bits of porn, but never been able, or willing, to sit through an entire movie. They said it was disgusting, but then they started talking about guys and porn. Would they let their boyfriend watch porn? All of them came to the conclusion that they would, but not too much, because then they would feel like they weren’t enough. I guess the idea was better to know and control than have no idea.
Personally I’m not into porn. I haven’t seen much, but out of what I’ve seen there was perhaps one that I liked a little. I truly understand them when they say “eww”, but I think I could enjoy porn if it wasn’t for the many girls that look like they are made of plastic and butt ugly men. Maybe a little more women taking control over the guy and a little less fake moaning. I’ve read articles about “porn for girls”, but I haven’t seen any(can’t say that I’ve really been looking, but still).
Now back to my girls’ conversation. They all seemed to think that porn was a part of a man’s needs and that he should be allowed it, to a certain extent. What about their needs? Do they not have sexual needs similar to the ones they seem to think their partners have? Do they not masturbate? I know I do(I know they do too, but that they won’t admit it, but that is a topic for another blog post). Do they seriously believe that their man will be enough satisfaction for their sexual needs, but not the other way around? That their men needs more than they do? Or is it all pretend? I, as a woman, know that I would need to satisfy myself without “my man” and that I might want something to turn me on. I wouldn’t watch porn, but I would read it or find it elsewhere. I’m pretty sure these girls will too.
Now I’ve forgotten what my point was supposed to be, let’s hope it’s in there or that I find it later.
