Do guys like 50 Shades of Grey?

[Anonymous]

Usually, I only hear of women who are into the book/movie? Do guys like it too?

My boyfriend said he watched it at the cinema with some friends. Apparently they were the ones who were into it. I'm not sure whether he even knew what it was about.

I'm a bit confused :/

Of my guy friends who have seen it... they didn't like it. One of them said mostly because it was boring and the bdsm was done poorly.
I talked about it with them and some others about how it sort of negatively represents the bdsm community (from what I've read of the book and heard it goes against some of the basics of bdsm rules) so it kind of put them (and I) off. I've read some good bdsm works and 50 Shades of Grey wasn't one of them for me...
But everyone has a different opinion :) some like it some don't~

guy "friends"? LMAO

[xHoneyxBeex]

I don't know any men who have read the books or seen the movie. I think it's more of a "taboo" thing that women like (even though many women criticize it, a lot do like it, otherwise the books wouldn't have been so popular).

[SarahsSummer]

I loved the books but I think my boyfriend liked the movie more than I did. He didn't read the books.

[GingerGuy]

Haven't seen/read it but also no desire to. I don't imagine I would be impressed much. Sounds to me like it's more "shock" value mostly? And/or really plays into female fantasy? I've never heard of any guy bragging about it either but I'm sure even if some guys do like it, they would never admit it as it's geared more to females (don't want to be viewed as "gay")?

No I don't like it. It was just really poorly written soft core bondage porn. I watched it out of curiosity by myself. The only people I know who really enjoyed that book were women who'd probably never participate in anything akin to what's going on in that book. I couldn't read the book at all.

[Junlian]

No! Guys don't like like that movie it's unrealistic.

[AustinMan]

Some do. Some don't. I definitely do since I'm into S&M and some bondage.

[LittleSally]

Does anyone who knows what a good book looks like?

[RasmusAiken]

Little interest. I heard it was so poorly written. If my girl were interested I'd want to read it to see why.

[1520Ariana_1]

Good movie

[Blanchmess]

I`ve heard about it

But never thought about seeing it

[Dargil]

Seems unrealistic. A fevered female fantasy.

[AdamThomas]

I'm into bondage and domination but I found 50 shades boring.

Men's sexuality is wired differently. Less "erotica" and more hardcore sexual acts. Skip the foreplay, get right to the point. I think that pretty much explains why things like 50 Shades of Grey is for women, not men.

[MissSkirt]

"Skip the foreplay, get right to the point." How about "afterplay"? Do men actually wanna leave or cuddle after sex?

[MementoMori_]

@MissSkirt I think it was Howard Stern who once said something like "The perfect woman is one who can fuck all night then turn into a pizza at midnight." I don't think it's quite that severe. Of course there is variation from one man to the next, but in general, if you had to take an average, I think most men are a little less about both the foreplay and the afterplay than women. But that's just an average. I do think that men tend to have a natural physical feeling that sort of feels like after they cum, it's all over. It's all about the orgasm and I think they tend to be more focused on that than on what happens before and after. Again though, it's not necessarily that severe. I think most men like SOME foreplay and SOME afterplay... just maybe not as much as women on average. Of course this is all just my speculation based on my knowledge of myself and other men I know, I have never had sex with a man so I don't know first hand (no pun intended).

I also think it's true that men are more sexually aroused by actual visual stimulation rather than by mental images created by say words in an erotic novel. I think that's what explains why men are far more likely to be the consumers of hard core porn and women of erotic books.

[MementoMori_]

It should also be said that just because guys may be less about the foreplay and afterplay doesn't mean that they can't engage in more of both to please their lover. Just as women are interested in doing things around a sexual relationship to please a man, men are also interested in doing things that please a women. Good lovers understand what women like and know how to deliver it. Same is true of women.

[MissSkirt]

Wow that's very detailed reply~ I have another question. Why do many men like dirty talks with girls on the Internet? Why don't they just watch hard core porn themselves?

[MementoMori_]

@MissSkirt It's a good question. I would say that they like the "live" nature of sex chat as opposed to porn which is not live. But I think they would like video sex chat even more then just plain text. Also, I think it's about variety. Both men and women get bored with the same sexual thing all the time. It's fun to try different things.

[MissSkirt]

Thanks a lot for your great answer. Can't believe you are younger than me. Haha! I do admire your thoughts~

[MementoMori_]

@MissSkirt Thank you. I admire yours as well. ;)

[TheRebel69]

No, men typically prefer colours such as blue, navy blue, maroon, deep reds, and from time to time forest greens. Grey, and any of it's fifty shades would be an uncommon favourite of men in general. Hope this helps.

[TuMeManques]

As a woman I didn't read or watch either. So not all women are into it. Just needed to throw that out there for humanities sake.

[IceCubedude]

haven't read it and iam not really interested in it in anyway

[Melissa4]

My ex boyfriend never liked it as much as me.

[Nik1hil]

I enjoyed the movie,.. Watching how Grey Used his skill and abused the shit out of Anna!.. Even though he warned her!.. "I am not the man for you "
And he said " my successful lays in I am good at understanding people what motivates them what incentivises them!.. " you should never have relationships with such use and throw people!..
Besides!.. I like a few tracks in that movie!.. And

[kinggeorge007]

Didn't like it. I too watched it may be halfway. Then deleted it. I'm not in to that bondage porn. As some another said it was so gross. There's no story. It's someones fantasy. Totally a waste of time. Even though I'm not much really into romantic movies, there are better romantic movies out there which has better sex scenes which are very beautifully taken.

[jacquesvol]

I downloaded it and was bored by page 3 or 4.

[Usersame]

It's practicaly porn that you can watch as a movie and claim to be "art" or something.
But no, i'm not into bdsm.

[mulberryhuang]

I like the music

[glock33sig357]

Personally no , the S&M i not into but the bondage i can have fun with ; watching it does nothing for me.

[genericname85]

nope. i hate it. and all the women i know say it´s shit and they can´t understand the hype xD
