I find porn disgusting and degrading. Anyone else with me?

I know people will say 'oh but you're free to express yourself in whatever way you want' - I'm sorry - but whatever happened to expressing yourself sexually with one partner/the person you love rather than a bunch of potentially perverted men/women? I dont understand why people are so comfortable with making sex tapes, banging strangers, performing threesomes and all the rest. Even worse, sharing these moments with the whole wide world. Dont people get embarrassed at the thought of loved ones seeing them performing these acts online? Don't they feel ashamed? Maybe my views are too strong for some, but that's tough, because they're mine. Surely others must find pornography vile? Find the person you love, and stick by them. Have all the sex in the world with the one you love rather than banging every second person/videoing yourself fiddling away with your body parts at every opportunity. People should learn to have some respect. There's healthier ways to express sexuality.

  • All I can say is someone's got to do it. Think of all the women and men that decide they want to be stripers and prostitutes (not because they don't have an option but by choice). Think of the people that end up working at McDonalds or as a maid... Someone has to do it.

    These jobs are degrading when could have a much better one, right? But someone has to do it. Some of these people are satisfied with life some of them aren't but they made that decision.

    As for making sex tapes and their family and friends seeing them doing this and what they have to say I agree with you 100% but it's just something they're going to have to live with. Every action has a consequence whether it's positive or negative. However as for banging strangers, and performing threesomes and what you said about having a partner/lover if you haven't noticed that's not very common nowadays. I'm not saying it's impossible because it's not people still fall in love and have relationships but people also cheat, get divorced, have one night stands, friends with benefits, and everything else.

    No offense but the world isn't what it once was you need to open your eyes join the real world because you're riding cloud 9.

    • No, I disagree. At no point, ever. Has anyone ever NEEDED to do porn to earn a living. Bullshit. Yes, there are prostitutes in street corners who need to do this to earn their own living. But what I'm talking about here is girls filming themselves masturbating, having threesomes or doing all sorts of weird shit for the whole world to see - not to earn a living - just simply for attention. The striking difference between working at McDonald's and being a maid is... oh yeah; those are actually USEFUL jobs. They have a purpose. At what point does going on so provocatively benefit anyone? It damages your self-esteem, ruins relationships, causes mental damage, influences the sick perverts that pollute the Internet. None of that has a purpose, it's actually self-harm. No point causing all that pain for your family. How downright selfish. Oh sorry, I'm only 22, haven't noticed much (!). No. Do you really think that I don't realise we live in a broken world? A large reason the world is

    • As it is regarding broken relationships, divorce and all the rest is to do with these laid back views that we have on sex those days. People are still committed - it is a choice. Many people are just making the wrong choices because society has watered sexual matters down. Ha, open my eyes? My eyes have been well and truly opened. And my opinion is not going to change. The 'real world' you're going on about isn't the problem anyway, it's the very 'real people' living in this world that cause the damage. So I'll keep my well informed opinion and my morals, thank you. Just because the 'real world' is lacking in moral stature doesn't mean that I will be too. Cloud 9? Is this cloud people orbit on believing that it's ok to go on recklessly like they're sexual objects. That's what cloud nine is.

    • You can't say at no point you don't know everyone in the world and neither do I. Maybe instead of doing illegal prostitution they just decided to earn a lot/easy money, become famous, and are guaranteed to not get an std or become pregnant. Some people do it simply because they enjoy sex so why not get paid for it? Everyone doesn't do it as a cry for help but of course you won't believe that.

  • Relax, most females agree with you. Watching porn does nothing for me and most of my educated friends agree. Watching porn for guys is just an excuse to masturbate. They fantasize that it's them. Now all the girls will come on and say, "I love porn." Half of them are guys masquerading as girls and the others represent a very small percentage of the female population. The Japanese had a law about 20 years ago that said if you going to make pornography you have to prove that the guy had an orgasm. Something like that. So all of a sudden they invented facials called bukkake. Now everybody does it. In pornography movies videos, girl supposedly loves it. So now everybody thinks it's supposed to be done.

    • Well, I don't think it is a percentage so small like you made it seem.. Maybe it is a bit smaller compared to the percentage of guys who watch porn, and I said maybe, but that's it.

    • @overthinkingmind ah well, let's agree to disagree :) there's no way anybody can provide acurate figures regarding who watches porn and who doesn't.

  • There are many others who feel the same way you do, so know you are not alone. I think you are aware that your views are in the minority a tad, as many men and women enjoy some form of pornography (classic argument, is Playboy porn or art?). You don't have to apologize for your convictions, just be true to them.

    • Thank you, I intend to be :) and yep, I've heard that argument too and I just couldn't disagree more :/ thin line between degrading yourself and expressing yourself wholly as a form of art in my eyes...

    • Thanks for MHgirl!

    • Welcome! :)

  • I definitely agree, I don't know how they can actually tape it and proudly show it to the world... Its the WORLD you're talking about, not only your loved one !! I have no idea how they can do it.. If its me, I would never get out of my house from embarrassment 😆

    • Glad you agree!! :D 😁😁

    • Hahahha glad to know you think, like this 😄😁

    • You too! Haha :)

  • While I usually don't watch porn because nothing beats real sex, Like it or not, it is free speech. If you don't like porn don't watch it simple. It is not your job to morally police other people. Not everyone views sex as a monogamous thing and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that

    • Right. And you can't police me on your views either, so don't. I gave my opinion, it's not going to change. If you or anyone else disagrees with it, tough cheese :) there's everything wrong with not viewing sex as a monogamous thing. That's when things get messed up. So yeah, nothing you've said has phased me, I'll be surprised if anyone is able to change my mind on it to be honest :)

    • I just don't believe in monogamy, sue me. You have a right to your beliefs, but why are you asking the question if you are not going to respect other people's views. People have the right to have sex with more than one person their whole, life, it's a free country. If you don't like that well , tough cheese.

    • Sure I do. Well, I'm gonna give as good as people get. People tell me it's ok to be a slut, porns not degrading, havinrhg sec with anyone and everyone is ok... I'm clearly going to argue that back. Why should I shut up because some people disagree with me? It's not happening. People are too sensitive and easily upset anyway. The amount of disgruntled people replying proves that it obviously doesn't sit all that easy with them anyway whether they realise that or not. Also, no offence. But this post was never eve about monogamy. It's purely about slutty girls flashing their vagina at anything that moves via cameras/online - that is just vulgar. So whether you like it or not, that's what my post is about and my views will not change.

  • I agree 110% with this. People must have dignity and self-respect, sex nowadays is meaningless thanks to these disgusting creatures who do porn.

    • Thank you :) I'm so glad that somebody agrees. Sex has definitely lost its value these days...

    • Porn didn't invent these things, they are a product of people's sexuality and fantasy.

  • I don't think it's your decision what is and isn't disgusting. I may find some of your habits disgusting. They are working, doing a job. For those that aren't, they are expressing themselves it's just not something you would choose and no one is forcing you to, or to watch.

    • It is my decision what I do and don't find disgusting though, that's well within my own rights :). Plenty of respectable jobs in the world? It's up to people to want to find a decent job though. It's not self-expression either. It's not an art. It's just a way of drawing attention to yourself at the end of the day.

    • Of course you're entitled to you opinion. Expressing yourself doesn't have to be art. You can express yourself and not label it as art, it's just something you want to share with the world. There are plenty of people who want to watch people have sex, there are plenty who want to be watched, there are plenty who just see it as a job. I'd say there were worse jobs than prostitution. Bring a criminal defense lawyer for instance...

    • Having sex with three guys/every guy/anyone and everyone isn't expression though. That's recklessness. And the only point it gets across is: i am going a complete bender - send help. It's not healthy. Rather than watch others have sex? Why not just go get some yourself. Yeah there are equally bad jobs. But phonography, as a lot of people who participate in it, will eventually admit how degrading it was and I watched a documentary on it. It really did ruin some people's lives.

  • If you don't agree with it then its not your business to figure out why people enjoy it. I personally watch porn and no, I don't find it degrading.

    • Well, I do. And I'm allowed to express my opinion if I so desire.

    • Whoever said that you weren't allowed to express your opinion? All I said was that its not your job or business to figure out why others enjoy it.

    • I'm well aware of that... either way, that's still my opinion, and I can wonder why people choose to go on like this all I like. Since when did humans stop thinking about things with different perspectives, geez. The robot era is here, it would appear.

  • How do you know if I only watch porn where girls are masturbating by themselves.

    • Don't want to know to be quite honest with you?

    • Your talking about how you don't dont understand why people are so comfortable with making sex tapes, banging strangers, performing threesomes and all the rest. What about if their masturbating by themselves, because the stuff your naming is dealing with 2 or more people.

    • I'd say if you're doing it alone and not involving others? It's not half as bad as publishing it for the world to see.

  • That's why they get paid absurd amounts. Not a lot of the girls who do it really like their job. They do it for the money. Some do like it but they are in the minority. There's not much else to say - its a means, not an end. Most people don't work because they love their job.

    For men, it doesn't pay nearly as well and it is actually a lot harder to do. But then again, more men actually do aspire to be pornstars. As for the viewers... well porn probably isn't their first choice. They'd rather be having sex themselves.

    • No. I'm not talking about these kind of pornstars. I'm talking about people who video themselves online for the world to view and masturbating etc. Most girls who do porn for a living anyway are sluts. There's absolutely no excuse. Want a better job? A RESPECTABLE job? Get off your ass, pull your pants up and go find one. Turn your webcam off. Go to university for goodness sake. People who live in this country have no excuse to be performing porn in this country, we are NOT that deprived over here.

    • Oh - were you talking about camgirls? Or like amateur porn? That's totally different. If they aren't getting paid I don't know why the hell anyone would do it. I guess its just for attention but that's really sad. Those girls just need a hug and some guidance. Poor things.

    • Cam girls! That's what I meant... and yeah, they do need a hug for sure and some therapy.

  • People are different, and being an famous is not for everyone, just as having an one night stand not for everyone. Anyway who cares as long as most guys and some girls have porn to watch, porn actresses donate far more to the society then common sluts, and gets money from it. :)

    • Nahhhh. None of it's alright.

  • Most of it is, I don't bother watching/buying them. Spitting on girl face/mouth, facials, rough face f*kin is just tastless/a turn-off for me.

    • Thank you! Glad to know that people agree :)

  • Yes I find porn disgusting and degrading...

  • I agree with you.

    • Wonderful :)

  • You're totally watching the wrong kind of porn. I'm glad some people make sex tapes though, some of those sex tapes are actually pretty damn decent. Actually, they're pretty much the only thing that has the slight chance of being decent.

    • No, there's no such thing as a 'right kind' of porn. I don't want to watch others having sex. The only person I want sex wth is my boyfriend. Couldn't care less about what porn has to 'offer'. Not interested, never will be.

    • Well I know I'M interested as long as they're doing it right and they aren't faking it.

    • Yeah because it's totally normal to watch a random guy and girl having sex... kinda perverted if you ask me. Go and bang your own partner in private.

  • Why should people be embarrassed? Sex is as natural as eating and more fun. Porn has been around since humans learned to draw in the mud with a stick. I'm in a monogamous relationship, but what other people do, whether in private, or shared on the internet is fine with me. You know what's really disgusting? The haters who scorn young women for wearing the wrong clothes or making independent decisions about their sex lives.

    • Whatever. There's a thin line between respecting yourself and going on like an animal. Keep your animalistic nature for your partner and your partner only. Don't go flashing your bits off on the Internet, getting horny old men, perverts and even paedophiles going. The Internet breeds these kind of people. its cheapening and nobody is going to want to settle down with a girl who has no respect for herself dogging around constantly. Disgusting. did I ever say sex was unnatural? No... no, I don't believe I did. Its as natural as doing a shit in the toilet, yet we don't tend to share THAT NATURAL BODY FUNCTION WITH THE WORLD because it's so personal in nature. Sex is also very personal and people abuse it's power easily.

    • "Going on like an animal" Uhhh... we are animals. "Don't go flashing... " Why not? Where's the harm? You have a lot of disgust but no actual facts. The biggest danger of sexting is the hate from people like you. "No one is going to want..." No one? Really? Some sex workers are married. Many get married.

    • No, we are homosapiens - not animals! Get it right, huh? Um where's the harm... let's see? We cover our bodies for a reason. Flashing your bits is degrading and a great way to lose respect for yourself. Ever heard of a well respected porn star that people actually look up to and aspire to be in a good way because they're a wonderful role model? Nah, me neither. I have lots of facts. Too many to type on here in fact. If you think that porn isn't harmful for your mental state of mind, your reputation, your physical health, your self esteem and all the rest then you are a fool. From a psychological point of view porn is not a healthy means of self 'expression'. It is self-destructive and unhealthy. Where's the harm? I think I already mentioned the bit about breeding more paedophiles and perverts, or, did you just choose not to read that part? Clearly. Hate? This isn't hate... it's called reality. And deep down, people know it's wrong and that's why some of you are getting on your high

  • I especially agree with this in application to married couples. Marriage is in between them, for another person to infiltrate their intimacy like that is sacrilegious! Yet some married couples do it anyway.

    • Exactly. I don't get it at all. Why's it so difficult to just be totally monogamous with someone :/

  • I've never watched it and don't plan on it

  • I do agree the industry is pretty filthy and there are many problems with all the hardcore sex going on.

    But, I mean if a girl wants to strip on a cam or whatever all the power to her.

    • I agree wth you. And yeah, fair point!

  • I disagree. If porn didn't exist, men would be going out of control a lot more than they already do now trying to sate their sexual desires. It might be vile to you, but I would take due care not to underestimate its value if I were you.

    • Coming from a 15 year old? Naturally, you really do have a lot of life experience already. Listen, little boy. Porn is what breeds paedophilia, pervertedness and all of the rest. Without it? And of course, the internet. The world would be a much safer place.

    • Pedophilia existed long before pornography became a mainstay. Also, picking on me for being young just makes you look like the immature one; just saying :)

    • *paedophilia. Of course it did, but was it even half as rampant as it is nowadays? No. Pornography encouraged that. Same as perversion and all the rest. Eh, no? I didn't pick on you. I pointed out your age. You're a child with less life experience than you think, which is the point I'm getting at.

    I love the honesty, but I'd also like to see people get to a point where the opinions of others are so irrelevant that they don't even care to acknowledge that they are too strong for them. What a world that would be...

    • Exactly, this is my point! I clearly stated that as I'm NOT trying to offend people, yet so many people have challenged my honest opinion I mean... wut? :S
