I don't find watching a guy sitting or lying there doing nothing while the woman (or women) and her breasts bounce around like he's a trampoline sexy. I like my men on the active side.
And what's with all the blowjobs? I actually skip parts which have blowjobs because I have zero interest in watching other people do it. What am I supposed to think? Am I supposed to think about what it would be like for the woman to blow my non-existant dick, or how giving some guy head while he's grabbing my hair and tries to splooge on my face would be nice?
Plus they're always so campy. I'm more likely to laugh at the sheer idiocy of it all than actually get turned on.

People act like the demographics divide is as arbitrary as the cliche of women liking romance and men liking action in the theatres, seemingly forgetting that porn is about sex and your tastes in sex are directly informed by your gender/orientation. (edit: that is, no matter how much you like giving head, the giver's enjoyment is gonna max out at "majorly turned on" while the receiver actually gets to get off, and you're probably not going to be looking at porn if your fantasies max out at "being kinda horny." Reach for the sky, right?)
I want to hear men moaning instead of ladies making that annoying cat-like whine. I want to see his hips grinding riiiight against that clit instead of carefully angled out of the shot so the camera sees maximum vag exposure. I want to see doggy-style where he's sucking on her neck and reaching around her hips to rub her clit and she's running her fingers through his hair because that feels great, in a way that half an hour of BJ doesn't! I don't want to see some dickhead randomly strangling the lady he's fucking, I don't want to see semen get in anyone's eye and I sure as fuck don't want to see ass-to-mouth. If guys had to sit through scenes of male porn stars licking a shit-and-e.-coli-coated ice cream cone during every other random porn, I think they'd be a little warier about the content too.
Honestly, when shit like that is mainstream and anal is ubiquitous, I suspect that any guy who acts shocked at the concept of porn being degrading is just being disingenuous.
PS I propose that Jezebel makes it illegal to brag about the awesome homemade/amateur stuff you've found without throwing some links out there, just sayin.

And the manhandling in mainstream porn is such a turn off. I'm not one to think that sex is all about love, sugar and rainbows, but geez, if you want a woman to change positions or something, tell her! Don't grab her out of the blue and try posing her like she's a blowup doll. I have no qualms about turning off the porn in those cases, because I find it such a turn off when men act like only THEIR needs are important and screw the comfort of the women (pun not intended).
Heh, I wish I could post links (what are Jez's policies on linking to NSFW material, anyway?) but I never bookmarked the links due to snoopy mother risk. It makes me sad now that I think about it, 'cause I waded through so much mediocre stuff (and before a sponsor filter was put in place) to find them. I don't even know if they were as good as I remember them being :(

But I think a lot of women still watch porn, anyway, even if they aren't the target audience. They'll just skip the stuff that doesn't do anything for them and go for whatever does, like guy on guy or whatever. Maybe women just aren't as open to admitting their porn use than men are.

When I was reading the other article this weekend about women not watching porn, I realized that if I wanted to find porn on my own, I would have no idea where to look. I mean, google porn? God knows what I'd find. Would I have to pay for it? Guys download free porn... but from where? I have NO IDEA.
Guys, from a young age, have brothers/cousins/neighbors/friends mentioning good sites, trading links, sharing porn memberships (they mentioned it in Superbad, remember?) Women don't have that.
Why don't men read romance novels? Because they know where to get real porn!!!

AND I read romance novels. Guy-on-guy romance novels.
Hmmm. I'm noticing a trend here.
