Do lesbians enjoy watching gay male pornography


Lesbians in bed watching a gay male pornography video? That is what is happening in this movie.

I would like to know if any lesbians enjoy watching gay male pornography. I think not.

Can any lesbians out there comment?

I think you're on to something. I've always felt that gay porn appealed to lesbians because it lets them eroticize someone without having to be eroticized themselves. There's something very empowering about that dynamic, which is probably girl/girl porn is so popular with men.

With enough courage you can do without a reputation.

reply

girl and girl is popular with STRAIGHT guys because we don't have to see some other guy's dong. I doubt very much that gay guys are watching two chicks go at it

Some gay men do watch lesbian and straight porn, just like some straight men watch gay porn. I am a lesbian who does enjoy gay porn but I do not like lesbian porn very much because its so fake with 2 straight girls pretending to be into each other with big fake tits and big fake lips and fake blonde hair. There is no caring or truly intimate caresses emotionally. There is no love or tenderness. Its made strictly by men for men and suited to the idea men have of lesbian porn.

I think you will find most lesbians do not was lesbian porn because of this. We want something with more heart sometimes. More story line and build up. More realistic looking women in realistic situations with real emotions between them. More like our real lives.

reply

In that case...you need to go to abby winters.com ....you might find you like their porn as its much more tender, and they film real lesbian, natural looking, couples...it's all pretty free of makeup too. which makes a change; it's nice to see real beauty. :-)

reply

thank you, i will indeed check it out. :D

reply

Holy crap. I'm gay living in NYC and have several good lesbian friends. Can't wait to show them abbywinters. That is definitely not your average lesbian site. It seems much more authentic and real than the big boob made-for-men lesbian porn sites.

reply

great! I'm a man and I like that site, even though its probably not aimed at me. :=)

While I'm not a lesbian, I've known lesbians who DO like to watch gay male pornography. It always made me curious because I don't know why they would want to because they're lesbians lol. But there are many lesbians who do watch gay male porn, yet I highly doubt many if any gay men watch lesbian porn.

Umm... if they do then they're not lesbians.

Ignorant much?

If I'm straight and I like lesbian porn does that make me a lesbian?

You can be attracted to the opposite/same gender without wanting to have sex with them or wanting to pursue a relationship with them.

reply

@mistaria:

No, it makes you bi-curious.

Everyone is born bi-sexual, and social factors determine the rest.

You REALLY need to get out more if you think that human sexuality is all about placing people in boxes. People's desires and turn-ons come in ALL flavours and colours.

Actually, hurtmesogood, some gay men have admitted on here to liking lesbian porn which I find is odd too. But your wrong about "many" lesbians like gay porn, MOST of them don't.

Gay men will watch ANY porn. Seriously.

reply

Hurtmesogood, believe it or not but there are actually SOME gay men that watch lesbian porn. Possibly for the same reason SOME gay women do, they don't want to deal with the sexism that people of their same gender/sex portray during porn videos. And no, a lot of gay women, do not watch male/male porn, the vast majority do not. Only a FEW do.

reply

You know, I've been hearing for some time that lesbians watch gay male porn and I thought it didn't make any sense.

Then again, in north america you have straight men turned on by girl on girl action. And then there's the erotization of gay men for straight women in japanese culture. Human sexuality is clearly very complex and confusing at times.

I use to find girl on girl action very arousing but over the years, it doesn't appeal to me anymore. Not sure why. And yes, I'm a straight guy....

reply

So obviously being a lesbian you speak for all lesbians.

I think the point the film is trying to make is that sexuality can be a lot more complex then "I like boobs or I like penis". For many people, being in a lesbian relationship has more to do with their ability to relate and love someone of a similar gender to them, not just because they like tits. You can be a lesbian and be turned on by males having sex. Straight guys enjoy guy/girl porn. Straight girls enjoy girl/girl. And who is to say that Julianne and Annette's characters are not bisexual?

You're a butterfly. And butterflies are free to fly, fly away, high away.

reply

I don't think they were bisexual, but I do think you have a point. As a bisexual, I'm obviously not exclusive, but one thing I've always hated is when people assume that when you're a certain sexuality, like lesbian, you're blind to the attractiveness of the opposite sex. You're not. Lesbians can appreciate the attractiveness of men; do they want to have sex with them? No. But it doesn't make them blind.

I personally don't understand why lesbians would want to watch gay male porn, but I don't think it makes them bi or not lesbians. Sexuality is not as simple as people like to think it is.

"Let's hug it out, b!tch".

reply

I'm a lesbian and don't watch gay male pornography (never, ever would), but I would never be so presumptuous (and obnoxious) as to say that those who do aren't gay. That's not my judgment to make, and it shouldn't be anybody but the individual's.

reply

Interesting.

I think the film was decent and while the plot with a sexual relationship between Paul and Jules is somewhat questionable, we have to accept that people that identify themselves as straight or gay do become involved with members of the opposite sex and it obviously confuses people.

Seems to piss people off even. I still maintain that whether straight or gay, the definition that works for me is that people have a perference but it's not always concrete. Sexuality is obviously more fluid than this.

But it seems to to really freak people out regardless of their sexual idenity.

reply

So what you're saying is that if I'm a straight woman and I enjoy lesbian porn then I must really be a lesbian? Ignorant much?

reply

1) I am a lesbian. 100%.
Is there some test that you need to take to determine the exact percentage of gay-to-straight? I'd like to sign up for that exam.
2) I am in a monogamous, long-term relationship.
Kudos and congratulations. Seriously, congratulations.
3) Ew, ew, ew.
But how do you really feel?
4) If you're watching male porn, you are not lesbian.
Speak for yourself.
5) This movie is soooo unrealistic when it comes to lesbian relationships.
Again, speak for yourself. I found that the movie hit the nail on the head!
6) To appeal to a mass audience (= make money) it has to play into the myth that lesbians are obtainable.
In your humble opinion, perhaps.
7) The co-writer was Stuart Blumberg. Really? Look at his credits.
Lisa Cholodenko? Look at her credits.

Honestly, why can't people grasp the idea of fluid sexuality? It happens all the time, people. Check out the Kinsey Scale; there are more people who fall in the somewhere-in-between numbers than people who are 100% straight or gay. That doesn't mean that they're not gay or straight; it just means that sexuality is more complex than what you might think.

reply


<<Is there some test that you need to take to determine the exact percentage of gay-to-straight? I'd like to sign up for that exam.>>

Well there IS the Kinsey Scale which measures sexuality on a scale from 0-6 with 0 being completely attracted to the opposite sex and 6 being completely attracted to the same sex. Most people are something between those

"Unless Alpert's covered in bacon grease, I don't think Hugo can track anything."

reply

1) I am also a lesbian 100%
2) I am in a monogamous long term relationship
3) I do enjoy watching gay male porn and doing so does not make me bi or into men as I never ever want to touch or be intimate in any way with a man
4) This movie was very realistic in many ways to all relationships, gay, straight, lesbian. Just because it isnt like your relationship doesnt make it not realistic.
5) Moores character was only interested in him for his appreciation of her. she did not care if he was male or female she just wanted to be needed and appreciated and many people sleep with others they never would have to complete their needs.


Now to explain why i enjoy gay male porn. First off i like the roughness of it occasionally. I do not only watch gay porn, I watch straight, lesbian, group, and more. I dont watch a lot of lesbian porn tho because it is just like jules said "its 2 straight girls pretending to be lesbians for the male watchers". I find lesbian porn unrealistic and suited to mens ideas about lesbian sex but lacks the softness, tenderness and love that most lesbians appreciate. I also dont find plastic tits and fat injected lips to be appealing and most lesbian porn is only portrayed by such "actresses".

I enjoy gay porn more because there is often a tenderness shown and even when it gets rough there is still caring for each other. I also enjoy watching it to jump start my visual fantasies of taking my girl in the same manner, rough but with love. Sexuality and fantasies are hardly studied and so how one reacts to stimulation in anyway is unknown. If somethings is arousing to you why question it, just enjoy it and use it to give yourself and your partner pleasure. Sex is meant to be fun and freeing so lets not be putting up all these barriers of what should and should not be stimulating to men/women/straight/gays. I know many straight men and women who also enjoy gay male porn. Just because its 2 dudes doesnt mean that people cant find it erotic.

I have been and known lesbians for 35 years and do not know any that enjoy watching gay male porno.

Oh, as if the topic would come up whilst y'all are barbecuing on a summer afternoon?

I'm a lesbian and I DO watch gay male porn. As well as lesbian and heterosexual porn. I think people are ignorant of the purpose of porn. It's the act of sex that turns people on, not necessarily the attractiveness of the people who are in it. I find when men have sex with each other it is fascinating and a turn on. Of course lesbian sex (not necessarily porn) will always turn me on the most, even if it's the most conservative of lesbian sexual scenes.

But porn is not real, and it is not a basis of who you are sexually attracted to. I watch gay male porn, but I am in no way, shape, or form attracted to men, sexually or romantically.

reply

I am also a lesbian (and a human being) and I enjoy straight porn, gay male porn, and the occasional lesbian porn. I say occasional lesbian porn because it is traditionally the least convincing. To my partner and I, that's what matters. Two people who want to tear each other's clothes off and @#$k...and we just so happen to be watching. Lesbian porn is very commercialized toward men...obviously. I don't think this is a surprise to anyone. To be crude, the purpose of porn is to get turned on. If the characters aren't convincing, as they are not in most lesbian porn, I don't get turned on. The vacant, bored look in those women's eyes does not go unnoticed to lesbian viewers. Heterosexual males may be duped (or just WANT to believe it), but most lesbian viewers just aren't taking the bait. For most men (but not all), a female-female sex scene is the ultimate fantasy. For two lesbians, that is the norm. Thus, the standard is different but the demand is more oriented toward the male fantasy. I think this is why lesbians are a tad disenchanted and unconvinced by lesbian porn. With gay male porn, you are offered fit, good-looking bodies that are very into each other and still gay. It does sound weird, I know, but really does make sense.

reply

Well, yeah obviously since you are gay, you would not feel attraction towards men, but that’s pretty much how it is for all gay women. But I really don’t think many lesbians watch gay male porn anyway, since for them there would be no reason to since the idea of the men having sex would not be a turn on.

reply

It's the act of sex that turns people on, not necessarily the attractiveness of the people who are in it."

Really? Well, I'm a gay man and lesbian porn does absolutely nothing for me. Not even the "more realistic" kind that is produced by and made for lesbians. I can acknowledge and appreciate a woman's beauty, but it doesn't get me aroused. If two men doing it turns you on, you're probably bisexual.

reply

[deleted]

"If two men doing it turns you on, you're probably bisexual."

Well, LiveTogether, people are different. Whether one is gay, straight, bisexual, sometimes sex (regardless of who is doing it) will turn a person on. Although I do agree that I think for the MOST part gay men and women will not want to watch people of the opposite sex having sex. Like you said it wouldn't be a turn on. And apparently some gay men watch lesbian porn, and sometimes they get turned on by it, but of course, most of them won't. Just like most gay women won't watch male/male porn since it would obviously not be a turn on. Just go and read FrogMeister's post on this thread. She pretty much represents how most homosexual people feel about watching porn of the opposite sex.

And also, you called the other person bisexual, but did you even read the rest of her post.

"But porn is not real, and it is not a basis of who you are sexually attracted to. I watch gay male porn, but I am in no way, shape, or form attracted to men, sexually or romantically."

So she admits that she is still in no way attracted to men in any sexual or romantic sense. So she is apparently NOT bisexual.
I will say this movie was a BAD representation of gay women and made them look bad. And the character of Jules, definitely bisexual.


reply

I'm a straight guy and I don't get turned on by two guys doing it. Of course maybe that's becuase straight guys are trained to find male on male sex repulsive.


But then I also doubt that gay guys are watching girl on girl stuff, at least for its erotic value.

"Unless Alpert's covered in bacon grease, I don't think Hugo can track anything."

"But then I also doubt that gay guys are watching girl on girl stuff, at least for its erotic value."

Actually, some gay men apparently do watch lesbian porn. And sometimes it can be for erotic value, but most of the time it's obviously not. Now of course, most gay men don't watch lesbian porn, just like most gay women don't watch male/male porn either. And the ones who do, are not watching it to be turned on per se, they watch it because lesbian porn for the most part is actually quite sexist; heterosexual porn is also sexist. Gay male porn on the other hand is filled with more passion and respect and I think the gay women who watch that are more aware of that so they prefer to watch that. But like I said, most gay women don't watch it, obviously because there would be no point since lesbians are not attracted to men. Of course this movie pretty much upset MOST lesbians, for obvious reasons. It was pretty bad with what Jules did, and pretty much confirmed that she was actually bisexual, even though she continues to claim she's "gay", yeah right. A lot of my lesbian friends hated this movie, and I don't blame them.

But seriously though, why do you, (or anyone) think it's different with gay men? Every time someone mentions how a gay women does something people say, "I doubt gay men do that" or when a gay man does something, people also say, "I doubt gay women do that". Homosexual men and women, are really no different from each other, as in they are not attracted to the opposite sex, they only like the same sex. So why the hell do people assume whatever one gender that's a homosexual does something people automatically assume the other gender doesn't do that. That's kind of ridiculous. How about this, the way that you personally felt about the movie (whatever that would be) would you still have the same feelings if the film was opposite. Meaning, it was about two gay men and one of them cheated on his boyfriend/husband with a woman?


reply

Well, yeah obviously since you are gay, you would not feel attraction towards men, but that’s pretty much how it is for all gay women. But I really don’t think many lesbians watch gay male porn anyway, since for them there would be no reason to since the idea of the men having sex would not be a turn on.

reply

My question to you would be, Why two guys? Why not just watch regular porn with a girl in it?

I mean, I don't really get it. at least with regular porn you still have a really really hot girl in there... Just wondering

reply

I'm a 100% "gold star" lesbian and I enjoy watching two men. I prefer two men over two women! And I in no way want to have sex with a guy.

reply

[deleted]

I'm assuming you're a gay male due to the "because of the presence of women" comment. I am a gay female, and I agree with you.

I'm not disgusted by men; in fact, most of my closest friends have been males. It's just that damn penis I can't stand. And the body hair. And the balls.

Okay, it's pretty much all of it. So no, this lesbo is strictly non-M/M porn.

It's pretty icky for me, actually.

No offense to the males who may read this. You guys are great people, really. But... I don't want to see you naked. Especially naked and having sex. And *especially* naked and having sex with another naked man.

reply

I'm a little amused by the fact that you brought up body hair, considering unless a woman shaves they tend to have a lot of body hair too! It makes me wonder how straight men and lesbian women managed before shaving was really a big thing, did they hate the hair? Did they tolerate it? Or did they love it? I'm not really picking on you, I swear it just kind of made me laugh.

I knew a gay guy who said he didn't mind watching straight porn because there was enough penis in it, and I found it odd just as much as I find it odd that some lesbians like male/male porn. Isn't straight porn basically counteractive for gay men? Turned on by the penis but turned off by the vagina?!

But as I said in another thread, I don't really understand sexuality and I can only ever be certain abou myself. I know as a straight girl I love guys, I think men have beautiful bodies, especially when they're toned (not so muscular their veins pop out, but toned with muscles) while women tend to always look flabby to me no matter what and soft, and I really don't want to be with something thats soft. I also think the vagina is probably the scariest looking thing ever, I mean what the *beep*?

I'm not really a porn person, but if I were I wouldn't want to watch lesbian porn and I don't really want to watch straight porn, because I just don't care to see boobs for vagina, I mean I have a mirror I know what boobs look like, I don't need to see anyone elses! I wouldn't/don't mind male/male because I am attracted to guys, and I find two guys more attractive than guy/girl. But for me, as a straight girl it makes sense for me to like two guys, I like penis so why wouldn't I like two? But as for why lesbians like male/male...who knows, I'm sure there is something about it, but because I am not a lesbian I'll probably never know, hell maybe they don't know, maybe they just like it, because they do?!

hurtmesogood, I don't mind that your straight, but why do you think the vagina is "scary" looking? It's a completely normal and natural part of the female anatomy not to mention YOU have one too!
Also MOST gay women ARE grossed out by male/male porn, obviously since they are not attracted to men. And I've actually read on here that some gay men have been turned on by girl/girl porn, which is also odd.

reply

Hey you don't have to be sexually attracted to female genitalia. But to go as far as to say it's the "scariest thing you've ever seen"? That's pretty messed up. Your basically bashing your own body. The human body is nothing to be ashamed of. And not every vagina is the same you know, just like not every penis is the same. Every private part is uniquely different. Although, really what's there to be "scared" or "grossed" out about? Like I said, even though they are all different, it's essentially just a little hole. And that's it! So why be grossed out about it? You could easily say that the penis is "scary" and "gross" simply because essentially, it looks like a small tube with two ball sacks hanging down. But alas, they are all different in their own ways as well. And no, I don't think they are scary, I find the human body to be unique, I was just making a point. And most lesbians don't watch gay male porn anyway, for the obvious reasons, that it just wouldn't turn them on, obviously. And the ones that do. Well, if you are so confused then why didn't you just ASK them why they did. They would probably have a very similar answer to what Andr8 was saying. Although some of them do, and some gay men watch lesbian porn.



reply

And not only is it really ridiculous to be weirded out by something as normal as female genitalia. But your description of the female body as being too "soft and flabby" is a little bit ridiculous as well. Maybe if the female is overweight, but guess what, that can also apply to overweight men as well. Their skin can get a bit "flabby". OR, sometimes men and women who are even thin can have flabby and soft skin. It's not just a specific "gender thing". That's being silly. And thin women usually have nice, toned and tight NON flabby skin; and a lot work out to the point where they have gained some muscles. Seriously, not all women look the same. Just like not all men look the same. "Flabby and soft" does not apply to everyone.

Like I said before though, some gay men watch lesbian porn and some gay women watch male porn, but MOST of them won't. For the same reasons FrogMeister points out. And again, if you are so confused as to why some of the gay women you know watch male porn, then why didn't you just ASK them? I'm sure they would give you the same answers the others on here have said. Lesbian and straight porn are VERY sexist, whereas gay male porn has a lot more respect to it.

reply

LOL hey FrogMeister, that is pretty much how MOST gay people (women) are. A LOT of them will not watch gay male porn. I have a lot of gay female friends and they have all pretty much said the same thing, they of course love and respect their male friends but find the idea of male sex to be really gross. Obviously!!!

reply

me too. card carrying lesbian who prefers gay porn. why? you can't fake a boner and ejaculation. most other porn looks so fake.

Only clowns will play with those balloons.

reply

okay so overwhelmingly most lesbians here say they like man on man gay porn. Interesting. I also heard a lot of lesbians who like straight porn because they like seeing the girls act like sluts, it turns them on. Im a straight guy and I gotta say I get offended when men are put down as sexual objects when I think , and the lesbians who watch gay porn agree, masculine sexuality is a very strong. So when two men do it it feels ferociously sexual and dirty, and that's what I think they get off on.

reply

Since when are men in porn put down as sexual objects? Unless it's a fem-dom video, it doesn't happen often. Most of the time, it's women who are treated as such. Does it offend you when it happens? I'm a guy who is also very specific about my tastes in porn and do not find that arousing at all.

What is with this idea of “gold-star homosexuality”? I would imagine most homosexuals would be “gold-star” anyway since, well that’s kind of the whole point of being gay. There would be no reason to have sex with someone of the same sex. So why the label? And you “love” gay male porn more than two women, and you actually prefer to watch two men? Um, why? If you are gay then that doesn't make any sense.

Are there any gay men who prefer to watch two women over two men? Maybe that is possible too?

reply

One of my best friends is lesbian and she finds buttsecks gross....but that's just her....everyone is different and has different tastes. Some straight people like gay porn, some gay people like straight porn, and some people like everything in between....it isn't completely impossible.
