A 21 year old male friend posted this on his Facebook wall. He said he thought it was very funny but also disturbing. Because I’m “the real me” on Facebook, I couldn’t comment but thought I’d do a quick blog post to vent my thoughts.

Next time someone asks me why I don’t enjoy mainstream porn, I’ll show them this photo.
The scenario is a distinctly porny one. Group sex where the straight guys are high fiving each other (and seemingly happy to touch each other while naked without catching teh gay). If this happens in real life, it must occur at drunken frat parties, perhaps with good ol’ rohypnol helping out on the chick front.
But it’s the eyebrows that shit me. The men are made to look mean while their female partners look either shocked or unhappy. These poor one-armed power point women aren’t enjoying the sex. Meanwhile, the men are “winning” according to porn. Winning sex. Impressing their mates. Triumphing over the women. Yay, high five!
That attitude is on display in most bad porn. And it’s not sexy to me. It’s just offputting. I don’t want to see jerks thinking they’re king of the world because they had sex with a woman who didn’t enjoy it. I don’t want to see anything where the woman isn’t intrinsically given respect. And this stupid bit of graffiti is really about that, not sex.
You definitely speak my mind on this one. One of the problems I have with mainstream porn is the phobia in the culture (and this culture includes amateur and “dorm” sites) of male-male sexual content. C’mon, guys. I don’t get turned on by other guys either, but if I’m at an orgy (disclaimer: the last one I was at was before most of y’all were born), I’m not going to make sure no guys touch my junk. Friendly or loving touch is good touch regardless of what the toucher has between their legs.
