5 Things Porn Gets Wrong About Real Sex
Porn is basically a grown up version of a fairy tale. When we’re little we watch princesses meet handsome princes and ride off into the sunset. As it turns out, real life doesn’t quite live up to the same standard.
The same goes for porn.
Obviously, there’s no way in hell we’d stop watching it, but we really need to point out some things that porn gets wrong when it comes to real sex.
Everyone coming at the same time
Please! This is about as common as finding a magic unicorn in the forest who will make all your dreams come true. If this is something you and a playmate or partner have perfected, we bow down to you. We’d even start a slow clap.
In real life, we’re usually just aiming for everyone to come, never mind trying to synchronise our orgasms.
Back-and-forth rapid thrusting
So at least there is some truth in this one, but they’re really stretching it pretty far with those ongoing scenes of intense thrusting.
Are they all Olympians? Where do they get their stamina? Is there some special machine at the gym that helps you practice your thrusts and build up your thrust muscles? And what happened to all the other sex moves most people pull in real life?
Excessive moans/screams
You know when you watch a tennis match, and the players let out these massive grunts and groans and screams every time they smack the ball? Porn can be a bit like that, except it’s just about every time they smack someone’s ass, or thrust, or so much as lick a nipple.
For a reality check, grunts and screams do happen in sex. Just not always (some people are just quiet, it doesn’t mean they’re not loving every minute of it). Plus, real sex noises tend to occur as you build towards a climax!
Lots of editing
Where can we go to get someone to edit our sex lives? Porn makes it all looks so glamorous and sexy, and definitely not anything like your usual Saturday night hookup.
We can only assume the editing process takes out any awkward moments where the guy’s dick slips out during thrusting and needs to be reinserted, or when you have that moment of misunderstanding as you change positions and both move towards something different, or even just when you have to stand awkwardly as you hop out of tight jeans. Either that, or these porn stars really are some kind of alien life form.
Phenomenal physiques
Did you see those abs though? How about that perfectly round tight ass? And seriously, you rarely see cocks that big in real life.
Porn actors keep in some serious shape, and there’s never a set of unshaved legs or wayward pimple in sight. In reality, nobody actually expects playmates to look like this, and no one really cares, either - so long as the sex is good!
On a more serious note, porn has unfortunately become a sex educator for our younger generation who are influenced by these unrealistic images and performances. Young women just starting their sexual adventures feel obligated to agree to anal sex, young men struggle with the concept of intimacy and expect partners to act like pornstars, it's created an obsession for the removal of body hair, and a massive surge in plastic surgery in search of the designer vagina. And unfortunately porn viewers can develop feelings of low self esteem and sexual inadequacy.
Porn directors, we can’t blame you for taking a few creative liberties with porn. Of course we would love for our own sex lives to look a little more similar your idealistic flicks. And to be fair, as soon as we hit that play button, we’re usually too preoccupied to care much about the details!

More than a month agoHow quick can a bloke back up to fire his second load? How quickly can a woman orgasm again? How long is a piece of string? The only answer is is they're all different .... Porn is the one size (very large ) fits all ; reality is one size fits f**k all .That's my rave

More than a month agoI have no problem with thrusting. Its not a myth, just requires you to be fit and strong?
ReplyAlso wanted to say for all those people saying "porn isn't a real representation of sex" the people are actually having sex and enjoying it for the most part. It's just not a complete representation of sex, but like sex, porn too comes in many styles and genres. Which genre of porn are you referring to?
If you watch a movie, read a book, play games on your phone, listen to music, go to the theatre, use social media or are on this website, these are all incomplete or fantastic representations of reality. Porn is no different, so treat it as such and enjoy! (with a grain of salt)

More than a month agoNot only do we get an unrealistic perception of sex from porn movies, but the whole media scene is absolute crap.
ReplyReality shows !!!!!!!! fucking hell, no wonder we have a whole generation of misfits with distorted views on relationships growing up in our society.
And sex itself, doesn't always need intercourse to be involved, as exploring and finding all the girls "buttons" and turning them on till she climax's I is as big a turn on for me as having a "root".

More than a month agoYeah true. I met a man who worked with another cameraman on a porn shoot. He told me lots. Its like really? No, this does not really happen. The edit part, well, he said it looks like the guy is going on & on & on & on.... but not true. He told me what they do is shoot a bit, then they break, and even if the guy cums, they wait for him to get hard again. It's not just one long, long sex session, but they play, and stop, play and stop, and the film guys make it look like it's just one long session where the guy has this enormous stamina. Since he told me what he did, it's fun to watch, but not as real as you think.
Replytastetester61
More than a month agoI always thought I was a bit slow. It always takes me 20 minutes plus to cum, always has. I hope that's not a bad thing for anyone. I like a lot of foreplay too, so there's plenty of stimulation, I just take a long time to cum.

ReplyWellhungGuySyd.
More than a month agoProfessional porn is just that, made by guys on viagra with big cocks, with women who are sexy as because thats what most of us want to watch. They're filmed over multiple days to just get an amazing 60 mins of hardcore fucking and loads of cum.
ReplyThe real world can be a lot different, but it doesn't have to be that way. I enjoy doing real porn like sessions, enjoy the dirty talk, the rollplay and the making of home made porn with partners when its appropriate. I find it really sexy when a partner is confident and adventurous with there body and likes to fuck like they're being filmed and have fun doing it. The issue of size has never been a problem even tho I'm over 20 cm and thick, women have always been able to accommodate me. Especially over longer sessions. I do agree that it's not the size that matters, but how you use it that really counts. But it is possible for one to be very well hung and also know how to use it and well that's a bonus for everyone involved.

More than a month agothe uncomfortable positions they get themselves into and still perform without cramping their hammys or something, and yeah all that stamina, always wondered about that.
Replyallinmymind
More than a month ago11% of women have had a same sex experience, you would think in the chatroom we all have. Some men in there insist that all girls have played with boobs and kissed each other and can still call themselves straight. I am more like a mango but I wouldn't know. I would like to try a larger cock. There are quite a few large cocks on cam on amm. A couple of guys have told me they thrust a lot and get sore. I am practising coming quicker for a decent cybersex session where the guy actually gets to see me come and that is going well, or maybe amm chat room is just very good at foreplay.

More than a month agoThe fantasies of porn movies are why they have been so successful, and whilst I have enjoyed a long and mostly rewarding sex life I do seek to replicate many of these scenes for myself at some time before I'm physically incapable. However as a real world participant in sex I find the long hard thrusting, spanking and excessive screams in many porn flicks a turn-off which has driven me to watching home made amateur and reality porn when I take time to surf the net or watch a vids. Whilst porn is very subjective to the viewers taste I find people who talk, fumble and laugh in between their moments of unscripted pleasure and delight to be so much sexier and a greater turn-on than any over produced fantasy flick I've ever seen. And yes I've had the pleasure of eating and drinking off my lovers body - its great!

More than a month agoHow true.
ReplyIt is a shame that younger porn viewers do get the idea that "porn-style" sex is the norm. That bench mark is just too high. My wife and I do enjoy "porn-style" sex... but it has taken us many years of pushing our boundaries and experimenting to get there. A beautiful, long journey.
nqsensualgent
More than a month agoI agree totally. Basically I call MF porn "In & out" movies as there is rarely any story to it except a rapid removal of clothes (no underwear is worn) & a few licks, some sucking & then into it! The women often have boobs that are obviously "doctored". And quite a few men seem to have soft but enormous cocks - but they still get in? Am I missing something here? I prefer FF movies as they tend to have more of a story to it & mostly the women are natural.
ReplyStill when one is alone & wants to get off, it is a good turn-on!
TasteLikeSugar
More than a month agoOn the other hand it's quite possible that guys and girls take care of their physique because it's not such a bad thing to look and feel super fit, and that it has nothing to do with bedroom performance. The pornstar sex you CAN have is just a welcome bonus... And I've never seen a vagina I wouldn't put my mouth on :)

More than a month agoPorn is often boring and too ordinary. Hate sound affects that aren't often matching the action. Amateur stuff then can be better. I key in words of what I like to see and it is never male and female acts. I like my real time activity better anyway. I vary it up safely with other sex positive partners and well, I have got it made.

More than a month agoI'm blown away ... I find porn boring and the lack of stamina and real female orgasms alarming ... The cocks mostly aren't that big ( fish eyed lense helps tho ) and I've never ever had quiet sex with anyone ...
ReplyMany many many eras of Human existence have had hairless bodies ( mainly female but some male ) occur thruout history Blaming porn for this is just not based in reality. we all love many things and I've had women see me despite hating hair and I certainly don't mind hair on a woman either if it's looked after lol. Also cumming together is incredibly easy if u as a guy wait till she's cum as much as she is going to handle and u then cum with her last real big one .... I mean where's the rocket science there ..!?
I think the writers infused too much of their own sexlife into the story and wondered well away from how varied sexlives are ... But a tip of the hat for putting your opinions out there and getting me ( someone who never comments on anything ever ) to actually comment on something ...
