The label highlights the most socially acceptable, in my circles, reason for its appeal (i.e., naked women=good, more naked women=more good). Lesbian porn features whatever it features, and caters to lesbians. At least in theory, there may well be overlap. In fact, I suppose you could make the categories orthogonal and say porn with two ladies is girl-girl, whomever it's for, and any porn catering to lesbians is lesbian porn, regardless of the subject matter.<br /><br />I might like lesbian porn; more likely it wouldn't do anything for me. I like girl-girl well enough, when it's what I'm in the mood for, though I don't have a disproportionate predilection for it**.<br /><br />* * *<br /><br />I once tried to determine what "vanilla privilege" might entail. It exists, but it's not a big deal, largely because it's so easy and trivial for kinky people to stay "closeted"; you can have a full life without telling anyone you don't want to fuck about it in a way you can't do if you're gay and can't easily do if you're poly.<br />*That doesn't mean only straight men may watch it or only straight men will enjoy it, but decisions are made on the basis of what the producers believe straight men like, and other tastes fall by the wayside.<br /><br />** I'm not trying to distance myself from the subject matter, I talk like this all the time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2770580070906411828.post-20257579185853399862010-02-23T04:32:33.025-05:002010-02-23T04:32:33.025-05:00Of course not. While you do have a bit of common g...Of course not. While you do have a bit of common ground with the LGBT folks, the fact of the matter is that "heteroflexible" women are at least tolerated by most and are even highly desired in some quarters. That, and the fact that if you were somehow prevented from having sex with other women it probably wouldn't signifcantly impact your life in a negative way. So from a completely personal perspective (rather than a general "I'm-against-denying-others-freedom" perspective) your issues aren't really theirs.<br /><br />In my case it's more complicated. I'm also probably around a Kinsey 1.5, so I don't mind having sex with other men occasionally. The thing is, occasional sex with men is all I ever get. Women just aren't interested. Heteroflexible men don't appear to be in any kind of demand aside from with gay guys who have a "str8" fetish, which is a little weird. And let's not even get into the fact that men get more than their fair share of the homophobic rancor. So if I were completely prevented from having sex with men, I wouldn't have any at all, which would have a pretty severe negative impact on my life. (Masturbation is rather unsatisfying.)<br /><br />So like it or not, I'm much more one of "them", even though my relative sexual preference is probably the same as yours.Not Menoreply@blogger.com
