I don't even know if anyone will feel like answering this in the forum, but I'm going to ask anyway. I'm even struggling how to word it so it doesn't bode well! lol

lol

My question is about pornography, and if the male(s) in the scene were wearing condoms, would this make any difference to your viewing pleasure? This may seem an odd question, but a while ago when pornography was discussed it was often suggested that the viewer imagined they were the 'porn star' (for want of a better term).
Also if a woman/bi man/gay man etc were watching the condom wearing male(s), would you perceive that he was having less enjoyment because he was wearing a condom? Would this affect your viewing pleasure?
I don't know what made me think of this - for me personally it doesn't make any difference to my enjoyment. I don't watch a huge amount of porn, and if I do it's usually of bi/gay men, and the modern stuff I own usually shows the males wearing condoms for penetration, so you could say I'm used to it! :lol2:
I just wanted to say that this is NOT a discussion at all about the rights and wrongs of bareback, nor what people think about those who do or do donâ€™t like/enjoy/participate etc in bareback activities - so I would be ever so appreciative if we could keep it off that particular subject.

Hmmm, interesting topic!
...if a little bit contentious... biggrin

Of course, speaking purely for myself, pornography is about fantasy, and condoms are about reality.
Why would I want reality to intrude into my fantasy world? I have to wear condoms for penetrative sex in the real world (apart from with Mrs Phil_osopher), and I do personally find them a turn-off to wear them in reality.
So my vote would be for pornography without condoms - because in my fantasy world, they just don't exist. cool

cool

..
haven't watched much porn either, but i have to say that i don't think it would make a
difference for me.
If it's sexy, thought-provoking porn i'm not bothered if i see a condom being used....
could be good seeing it put on etc!
Maybe it just depends on your views on condoms??
Or if your pleasure gets kind of 'side tracked' by noticing a condom??
Would be interesting to see what others think.

I understand what you are saying Phil and I think your comparison between fantasy and reality is a good point, and put across in a way I hadn't thought of.
Contentious? :shock: lol

I honestly don't want this thread to go the 'wrong' way so I will just trust that folk will be good. wink

I like 'homemade' porn, the more realistic (ie a 'real, average 'normal' couple/ participants having 'real' sex not scripted or acted sex) the better - and in those circumstances condoms usually come part and parcel, as they would do if you were filming inside a house party etc, so it makes for 'better' porn for me dunno

dunno

lol

I also have a habit of looking if people are wearing condoms - both in porn and in RL and I'm afraid to say if they're not, it really is a bit offputting for me dunno

I have porn which has both condoms and no condoms, and I don't have a preference for either.
It certainly doesn't spoil my enjoyment if a condom is being used.

7 Oct 2006

Without for us please! Like someone mentioned about the fantasy v reality issue, thats how we ourselves see it, and at the end of the day it won't make us stop using them when implementing our own little sordid fantasies.

Me too! When condoms aren't being used in porn it often distracts me from the porn itself, and I have been known to rant at the TV.........it makes me very concious of the fact that they are actors and actresses and are working, and IMO in that industry, condoms should be classed as Person Protective Equipment.....and no different from a labourer wearing steel toe capped boots.
It is mainly due to me not being able to take my "work hat" off.....and also feel that from a Health Promotion aspect, if images of condom use were used in porn, then it could be used as a safe sex advertising tool.

Very much a personal thing condoms, me im too old too care much now about porn have a shelf full here some with actors using them and most not using them but they aint been watched in years. Have to agree with darkfire we much prefer amatuer porn which is much more interesting to watch, but at the end of the day we like to play for real with other couples thats much more interesting and we always practice safe sex.

7 Oct 2006

Have to be honest and say that it doesn't make a difference to my own viewing pleasure. Although it does make me wonder when penetration is done with a condom but then they take it off and he comes in her mouth..bit pointless really.

That does wind me up a lot. I also don't like the way the condom is suddenly "there". Most often you never see it being put on... something which can be done very erotically by a skilled woman ;-)

yeah i was watching one the other day..one minute you see it, next you don't and then voila the little bugger back again!
i am crap at putting a condom on, since i am gonna ride it until the suction takes the thing off they can put in on their sleves.

Just to answer you Fil: under those circumstances no, there probably wouldnt be need for a condom, but then as a viewer, all i'm seeing is two or more people having sex, I dont know whether its a long-term relationship or not dunno

dunno

I might feel differently if its a couple I know, but like Les, even with the eroticism of porn, using condoms is so deeply ingrained in me now I kinda need to see it dunno

dunno

I'm afraid I'm one of those who notices the 80's style duvet covers and bubble gum on bottom of shoes too, not to mention the size of that spot on her arse rotflmao

I like it 'real' not 'idealistic' but thats the voyeuristic streak in me wink

I'm minded to agree with much of the above, these days girlfriend and I much prefer wathcing the more 'amateur' or doing our own porn rather than watching crap porn actors moaningand faking endless orgasms! If it were an interesting and stimulating film then condoms shoudln't matter. Surely to a certain extent they are such a part of modern sex lives that you'd barely notice them anyway unless it was shown putting them on in detail (then i suppose it would be an educational film lol)
So to reply to your question Kiss, no don't see a problem with it at all.

I haven't encountered a woman who uses a femidom,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,yet. So I wouldn't mind trying that. Has it been filmed yet? Hmmmm....................... confused

I think pornography essentially creates images and enhances one's imagination. So that it leads you into superimagined situations. If that includes the use of condoms or not you'll still get a tingle. cool

cool

Over the top dubbed sounds totally kil it for me. A few genuine sounds is really sexy.

8 Oct 2006

dont watch porn at all really ,more a tactile person than a watcher if you know what I mean.
but personally the idea of condoms in porn movies makes me think that at least they are catching up with the times and being responsible in promoting safe sex.

8 Oct 2006

Doesn't both us either way at all... some of the best porn (and cumshots) that we have seen have been with condoms, although some without...
What I do like though, as is in vogue in current porn, are the 'rubber up right' and 'protect your partner' adverts (for want of a better term) before the main feature.
So, in answer to the OP - it makes no difference to us at all - as long as the scenes and the actors appear to be hot and enjoying themselves its all good smile

I get distracted by so many things when watching porn (which is actually very rare!) that whether there is a condom or not has never entered my head. I'm usually too busy deciding if I like the curtains, carpet, furniture and whether she looks like she's really enjoying it or is she pretending :giggle:
BUT now you've mentioned it and I have thought about it, I would rather not watch sex performed with a condom. Something to do with fantasy I suppose, they are not in my fantasies so I don't want them in my porn.
For the record, I would never ride bareback with anyone other than Stormy and feel it's highly irresponsible for anyone to do so. So obviously I have highly irresponsible fantasies. Then again most of fantasies are about girls anyway so what am I going on about dunno

What intrigues me is where the condom vanishes to during the split second the male whips his cock out of his partner's vaggy then shoots all over her face/tits/hair etc. I don't think I've seen any porn where the guy actually cums into the condom.

surely the sex is why we watch porn biggrin

assuming we watch porn for a turn a gal putting on a condom for the guy could be filmed erotically i,m sure :twisted: :twisted: but in answer to the question......no it wouldnt put me i also love the amateur stuff better than the silicon valley porn,its much nicer to be in reality with the actors/actresses :evil2:
