I'm bisexual, but lesbian porn grosses me out. What do so many straight women like about it?

[Anonymous]

The question says it all. I usually find the women in the video attractive, and think it's cute when they kiss. I find it gross when they go any further though. I used to think it's because most lesbian porn is made for men, but I've tried watching the stuff for women and that's even worse. I prefer gay porn because it's more passionate and more realistic. I watch straight porn too sometimes, but mainly the gangbangs. But in real life, I prefer sex with women more. Even when I'm reading erotica, I usually go for the lesbian stuff.

Dude, a lot of people who are straight are grossed out by straight porn. It's pretty normal, really, particularly considering how unrealistic and just weird a lot of porn is. So don't sweat it, really. It might be because the medium itself makes you uncomfortable, like because of not liking watching two other people do it or just because of the way porn is formatted, or it could be because of internalized homophobia (not that uncommon, really, but I don't think that's the main issue really), but in any case you probably shouldn't worry about it.

[Asker]

Well I guess that makes sense. Well it's not internalized homophobia because I do watch gay porn. But I do feel uncomfortable watching women on camera. I guess I'll just stick to what I like

[cipher42]

Yeah, just throwing out options. But yeah, don't worry about it. It's also possibly because you're weirded out by the fakeness, since you have actual knowledge of how it works in reality.

I feel the same way. I need to watch something with a, guy because I need to see the girl get fucked and picture that somehow I'm doing it. Same with gay porn, it's so hot because they get really physical. And it's very sexy to watch. I think this way because I guess I really want a penis!

[Asker]

I guess that makes sense lol

[slavekimmy]

Awww!!! Thank you very much!!!

[Asker]

No problem! :)

Here is why: Men see themselves replacing the porn-actor when watching porn. Therefor a lot of porn is in the PoV perspective. Women on the other hand emphatise with what the woman in the porn would most likely feel. That's part of why straight women watch lesbian as well as gay porn. Further about it below. Furthermore there is actual research about the topic of what arouses someone done by putting sensors on the persons genitals. Interestingly men mostly only react to viewing sexual acts according to their orientation. Women on the other hand have direct reactions to everything sexual. Gay men, gay women, straight sex and even apes having sex (Yes, that was part of the research). Another key difference here is that when men are physically aroused they are most often also mentally aroused. For women those two aspects are way more independent of each other. This is simple biology. Guys only needed to check on 3 aspects to be attracted: Health, Youth & Fertility.

[FakeName123]

For women this is a lot more complicated as she had to search for the potential alpha-male with the best genetics, but also who will protect her and the child as well as provoding for them. Since he might has the best genetics, he will also be attempted to be seduced by other women and therefor women needed to find a proper middle-way as well as a lot of other factors coming into play. tl;dr - Based on biology men are only aroused to their orientation while women are physically aroused to almost anything, but require to be mentally stimulated as well and is based on emphatising. This is also why guys almost only watch porn and girls instead read it a lot more.

@FakeName123 I guess that kinda makes sense. I even know a lot of lesbians who watch gay male porn.

[Anonymous]

I used to like it more. Now i can only stand straight porn. Guess it has to do with the novelty of it wearing off. Also having a boyfriend... I dont care much for fantasizing about other women at this stage lol

[Asker]

Well I don't know about that. I have a girlfriend but I watch gay porn lol

[Opinion Owner]

I guess so. Its just... I might still b arouses by it. But lately I prefer to see straight porn and kind of imagine how it would b like if it was him and i doing that stuff lol 😏

[Asker]

I guess that makes sense

[Opinion Owner]

by the way there was a time I watched gay porn too (men). But Even if i am very open minded and like thinking about sex, I started wondering if it wasn't too weird and i stopped watching it lol. I know there is nothing wrong with it. But i felt like ok, maybe i should stop lol

[Asker]

Well a lot of women watch it so it's pretty normal. I like it because it's both rough and passionate. Straight and lesbian porn are usually one or the other.

[Opinion Owner]

Get it. Thanks for ur input on this by the way. I agree with what u said: rough and passionate. Nd there is something hot about a guy letting himself be dominated by another.

[Asker]

No problem :) And I agree lol

[Beantown1992]

Simple. Women are beautiful, sensual, soft and smooth. Us guys tend to be rough, gross and dirty. It's much more likely for a woman to find another woman attractive then it is for a guy to find another guy attractive.

[Asker]

Umm, what's that gotta do with me not liking lesbian porn?

[Beantown1992]

Sorry, I was responding to the header. I didn't see the detailed question. I was referring to why women like it.

[Asker]

Oh okay. Well I even know many lesbians who enjoy gay porn

[Asker]

Anyway, I don't really agree with what you said, I really like looking at the male body.

[BertMacklinFBI]

perhaps they like seeing how another girl knows her way around a girl's body.

[Asker]

Hmm... Okay

[Shes_Like_Texas]

I'm not really into porn, it doesn't do much for me.

[Asker]

Okay

[LovesTVDx]

It's gentler and less boom boom boom than normal porn

[Asker]

Well that's what I don't like about it

[Asker]

And also the fact that the kiss each other all over the body. I like that in real life but hate watching it in porn

[JennaSmith]

I'm that way too. I think it's really slow and has too much kissing. I like watching women masturbate and sometimes read lesbian erotica, but don't like girl on girl porn.

[Asker]

Yeah, that's kinda how I feel

[Anonymous]

You just like what you like...

[Asker]

Okay lol
