Monday
Hello, and welcome to your Monday. It's technically Monday as I type, although psychologically it's still Sunday for me, as I am staying up late again. Friends and I went to a drag show at a Latin club--and if you want to see some straight girls get excited, bring them to a drag show. But we'll get into that in a minute.
Things we need to discuss that are of earth-shattering importance:
1) Read the post below if you have a moment. If you don't have time, I'll sum it up quickly: I've been out a few times with this guy and I think he's married. Important detail: married to a woman. He says he's not but I think he's telling lies. I'm working on finding out for sure. I can write about it here because he's from a Latin country, and he has no idea about the entire MTV thing, as is the case with most people in Miami. So he'll never read this blog. And FYI, the dating-a-married-man thing? Not good. Just to clarify my position.
2) So straight guys like watching two girls get it on, right? Why is that, exactly? I presume it's because the guys have this idea that the girls are so horny, they have to take it out on each other. And then they dream about jumping in the middle of the party and going for it. I never thought it went the other way, a woman getting turned on by the sight of two men. But tonight: our table of straight women was collectively melting at the sight of all the beautiful men in the room, and when two of them gently started to kiss...one of my friends just about crawled out of her skin. "It's too much. That's so hot." Who knew? Hmm. Are there straight women who like watching gay porn?...


There is not that much kissing in gay porn. It usually goes straight to the mechanics.
Also, I'm not sure how women feel about rimming. I will often fast-forward through those sessions...

Dan, I've read you're blog for a while now, but I just have to post when it comes to something near and dear to my heart: Hell yes, [some] straight women love watching gay porn. Gay men are attracted to guys, therefore they like watching men have sex, yes? Straight women are attracted to guys, therefore...
There's even been at least one study that found that the brains of gay men react to men the same way the brains of straight women do. And for the record, most of my porn (straight woman here) is gay porn. Sean Cody is a genius. There's nothing quite look two beautiful men screwing each other.

Yes.

>>>>>>Are there straight women who like watching gay porn?...
Not only that... I'll do you one better... There are GAY women that get turned on by two guys going at it. I happen to be one of 'em. I have never watched gay porn but seeing two guys make out? Yes please... I don't know what it is... As with everything else in life, it helps if the two guys are hot, though.

I do not enjoy pornography of any kind but real eroticism (rare) is beautiful and hot regardless of whether it is 2 men, 2 women or a straight couple (the most rarely seen real eroticism).

Watching cute boys smooch = HOTT.

I was at a party once where there were a lot of people in drag. At one point to gorgeous women dressed as men (in tuxes) smooched. All of us screamed. Everyone in the room, straight, gay, male, female, was WAY into it. We made them do it about fifteen times. It just seemed to have something for everyone.

Another lesbian here who enjoys gay male porn. I used to worry about it, but now I think, what the hell!

Allow me to introduce you to someone else's blog who I frequent in addition to yours: http://www.exceptionalkia.com/. One of her favorite topics is gay porn.
She is a delight, that kia. Hag extraordinairre.

I love it when two guys kiss... I just won't admit it to my very straight, very Republican boyfriend. :(

Just as with Harry Potter, I love gay porn with all my heart. I could give you a semi-scholarly rationale, but it's not like I need to convince you that guys banging each other is hot. You can even imagine how many Sean Cody and Corbin Fisher videos I have...
But yeah, there are TONS of women, actually, who enjoy the idea of two men together. Have you ever read any slash fan ficton? It's a scary beast - 90% of the people who write it are women. It really REALLY graphic, too. And often times creepy...

Long-time lurker, first-time poster.
Many women enjoy (and even prefer) gay porn. The guys are way better-looking, and the storylines/visual set-ups are better than in straight porn. Also, the taboo is erotic.
About the potentially married guy -- I assume you have already done all the requisite Internet stalking, Googled him, checked out his myspace page, etc. etc. and come up with nothing. My solution -- tell him you cannot have sex at your place due to any of the following: roommate who sleeps lightly, mother that's visiting, small yappy dog that bites strangers. If he suggests going to a hotel rather than his place, you have your answer. If he does invite you back to his place, look for tampons.

I didnt realize how much I enjoyed two men getting it on until I watched QAF...I know its acting, but it opened up all new doors for me! I think I just like porn and sex and general, it doesnt matter who does it...heterosexual, bisexual, anything..I am just sexual!
Posted by:Shannon | December 04, 2006 at 10:21 AM
True. QAF made freaks out of a lot of us. ;)
What a coinkydink that you are bringing this up, Dan. I seem to remember the first gay kiss I ever saw taking place on a little show called Real World: Miami. You totally molded my pubescent brain!
Posted by:kristin | December 04, 2006 at 10:42 AM
Ummmm....YES.
And I thought I was the only straight girl out there that liked gay porn. Woohoo!
I bought Brokeback Mountain the day it was released. Yumm. It's the only gay love I can watch around my boyfriend...

I know lots of straight women who love gay porn and know the names of more gay porn stars than I do. I haven't seen much hetero porn but they tell me the men in gay porn are better-looking. Of course, I've seen some gay porn where that wasn't true.
And I have read that some lesbians like gay male porn, as Lori & Kristin have testified here. I read that this was because gay men go at it so energetically and lustfully. So I assume it is the attitude of lustfulness they are enjoying, not the male bodies. Is that what it is, dear lesbian sisters?

We've neglected the whole phenomenon of those cartoons in Japan aimed at adolescent girls. They have super-hot gay guys falling in love and making mad love, and the girls in Japan LOVE it.
Ever seen those? It's not even underground over there. It is popular culture!
Posted by:Hephaestion | December 04, 2006 at 11:40 AM
Oh crap, I forgot about what Hephaestion is talking about. Yaoi -- Dan, you must do some "research" on yaoi. Or for the less graphic version, shonen-ai.

Heck yes there are. I'm actually on my school's Speech Team. One girl, this weekend, on my team, actually took 1st place giving a STE (speech to entertain) about gays in the military. However since the speech is to entertain, she began with talking about gay porn, and how much it turned her on. It was quite hilarious, hince, she took 1st.

I am blown away that you did not know this. Man on man action is HOT!
Posted by:angela | December 05, 2006 at 07:17 AM
LOVE gay porn!
Posted by:Anastasia Beaverhausen | December 05, 2006 at 10:28 AM
"Oh this gay porn?...um, I'm buying it for my wife..."
Posted by:jay | December 05, 2006 at 06:41 PM
I LOVE gay porn. It's so much better than straight porn because there's no pussy. I have one, but I definitely don't want to look at one. Ewww!
