Weird feelings about porn


Recommended Posts

I have watched porn in the past. I say 'in the past' because right now i'm in this mood where I never want to watch porn again. I recently watched videos on youtube

of people reacting to porn and I feel very disturbed by it because the people just laugh or find it funny. I feel they should be more shocked by it. The weird thing is that I

am not easily shocked by anything but I somehow feel that other people should be. I mean there are different kinds of porn and some are clearly more shocking than others. But I am talking about "regular" hardcore porn which itself can be quite gross. Even though I can get aroused by it, at the same time it seems disgusting to me. It almost seems like gore to me.

I just can't understand why people can laugh at this, especially when they are watching it for the first time.

I have seen some weird disgusting things, both porn and gore or other disturbing things, but I never laughed at porn or thought it's funny. I'm also

wondering if there even are people who have never seen porn in their life and never would want to watch it out of curiosity. If you've seen porn, what was your reaction to it?

Did you find it disturbing or even funny?

It's probably because they're filming video and not alone. 

I would react to any video differently around people than i would all alone.

 

also the first time i discovered porn was when i was 9 when an online ad opened leading me to some website where women had sex with horses and dogs and right after it was 'rape inspired' porn and then gay porn so.... That was a very informative day for me lol

Many people laugh when they are nervous - so they may not have found porn "funny", but actually stressful. 

 

That said, many people do find it funny - most of it is just so ridiculous compared to real world sex. Imagine a real life spy watching a James Bond film - how could they not break out laughing in some scenes. 

 

There is of course a huge variety of porn out there, so if you are interested you could find something that matched your interests - but no reason in the world to watch it if you don't like it.

 

I remember a study where they found that a fair number of women became physically aroused while watching porn, even if they didn't enjoy what they were seeing.  Humans are strange.

porn filmography makes me uncomfortable usually. sometimes I can watch it for a bit and it arouses me, but even then I get bored or more often uncomfortable with it and close the tab. 

 

I am actually okay with still images of solo people nude in an erotic or aesthetic way, and find that arousing. Sometimes when it is displayed aesthetically, then it is only aesthetic to me. 

 

 

Hardcore stuff... idk.. I try to avoid it. I'm only okay with very soft core lol. 

 

 

one of my friends said he liked the plot of porn sometimes... he said it's never good plot but sometimes it can be funny for its low-effort or someting idk I didn't really understand it. probably because I don't really ever seen such media to know what it's like. I guess it is kind of like how shitty acting and low quality props/etc in horror films can be funny for some people too? that the low quality has some kind of irony to it or something?

Yes it may be ridiculous but I still can't imagine why someone could break out in laughter. The thought of watching porn with another person for fun and recording my reaction is really uncomfortable to me. Maybe it's because watching porn is something I feel ashamed about and it's something you're not supposed to do.

Hmm, the whole question of what people find funny and why is actually really complicated.

yes, I can understand that the plot may be ridiculous and that it's funny but it's so graphic. When seeing something like this for the first time, how can people laugh?

I get so uncomfortable by watching people's reactions.  When I saw porn for the first time, I was fascinated and shocked at the same time. Although to be honest it wasn't so bad that I had to look away. But for some reason I get very uncomfortable watching other people reacting in a funny way to porn.

Hey Rofl

 

I find porn whack. But I can understand the obsession around it too.

 

I find it whack because these people don't care about who sees their bodies. In my mind, I always thought sex was such precious and intimate thing, but seeing how there are excessive amounts of porn everywhere now I think I have just grown numb to it. If I ever have sex, I feel like I'm just going to think, wow... this is what people pay subscriptions to watch!? But I can understand the obsession because it's supposed to be a secretive thing. Sex between two (or more) people isn't really supposed to be public... and the fact that it is, well, I guess people are curious about finding out what is in the realm of the unknown.

 

I can say that I have never laughed at porn. I assume people laugh on reaction channels because either porn-stars are attempting something weird in the scenes, or they are laughing out of nervousness because I again, porn is often something people watch in private. 

 

I have no idea if any of the above makes sense because it's 3am where I am 😅

Maybe I feel so uncomfortable with it because whenever I watched porn I did it in private and I always felt that it is something I shouldn't see. For me the worst thing about porn is how graphic it is, and it is real. In contrast all the blood and gore in horror movies is not real, maybe that's a stupid comparison. But when people make it public by posting reaction videos and act all amused, this is what makes me so anxious, I think omg they really watch this and are not shocked and act as if it is completely normal? I could never do that.

I'm also not sure how authentic these reactions are. Maybe people just react overexaggerated because they are filming it.

In most porn the actors are wildly exaggerating.  Many people find it funny because of that.  Even among sexual people, opinions of porn vary wildly, some think it is OK, others find it deeply offensive.

It's hard not to laugh at porn if you just look at it from a bad movie perspective. It's also funny if you distance yourself enough and think about how odd /bizarre our reality is....People stick their body parts against each other and others watch..and then it gets streamed all across the world. So weird!

 

I don't watch live action porn...I actually like that in anime they are required to censor a lot of the genitals. I also  tend to prefer fluff or really dramatic sex scenes, and all the intense emotional reactions, which you don't get from most live action porn. No story, no plot, no interest.
