Because it's porn. It doesn't need to be deconstructed and analyzed. If it can bring you to a climax, then it's done it's job.

But, we must possess understanding. The knowledge must flow.Shrapnel wrote:Yeah, but... do you really need to understand porn? It's entire purpose is literally to make people whack off. I don't think you need to get any deeper than that.
We might just as easily say that any phenomenon is what it is, and shouldn't be further examined. But that isn't how our species survives. Everything we have, from the development of the scientific method to the acquisition of shamanic phytopharmaceutical knowledge, comes from inquiring and asking why things are the way they are.
Only inquiry into what porn is and how it works will permit the production of ultraporn.

Techically, everybody is aroused by electricity.
Nerve signals being electricity and all that.
But yes, there's also sex toys with electricity...

For the same reason that horror movies that hint at the monster are more terrifying than those that show it outright. Imagination fills in the blanks, and the imagination is more potent than the best special effects.
No one is suggesting women don burkhas or nun's wimples to be sexy, but the modern fad of increased exposure, Lady-Gaga-style, is counterproductive. You need only expose enough to get the imagination picturing what's being hidden, no more.

Lady Gaga is not the celebrity to mention here. She's hardly ever been super-exposed. You're probably thinking Miley Cyrus.

The meat dress was perhaps poorly conceived, but I don't think you can really apply typical standards of sense to the entertainment industry. Also, little to the imagination or no, the red dress is actually way more covering than the dresses worn by many celebrities to the various major awards shows of the last decade or so.

I would generally hold up those dresses as examples of the "less is less" phenomenon. But that translucent veil doesn't really conceal a thing - she's basically topless and slightly red-colored. Which is... fine, I guess, if you're going for titillation. But it completely abolishes the sense of wonder.
A woman in a one-piece swimsuit does more, I think. Given the right attitude.

How much sex have you had? Because it sounds like not a lot.

Sex is like Pizza.
Even if it's bad, it's still kinda good.

Anyway, I don't see how understanding your partner to lead to better sex is the same as understanding porn. As I'm a virgin, I can't really say if forming deeper bonds with a partner makes it better (although I'm assuming that it does). But forming a bond with a living, breathing person is different from forming a bond with a fifteen minute video on Redtube that your going to forget about once the deed is done. Because it's a video. It doesn't have feelings. It can't respond to your affection. It can only show one or more naked people having sexual congress.
Something that I can definitely tell you from personal experience is that having a deeper understanding of porn has not actually made ejaculating anymore enjoyable than it normally is. In fact, usually it has the opposite effect: Actually knowing why my mind and dick are getting off to a woman being titty fucked kinda makes it seem less fun.
And I know what I'm talking about here, because unlike Matt Murdock, I've seen A LOT of porn. Like ten videos a day. Sometimes I jack off so much that my dick starts to chaff and bleed, and I need to take a few days off. Did I need to say that? No, not really.

You know what's really sexy? Clothes. And not revealing clothes either. Like those absurdly all-concealing multi-layered clothes that you need a chainsaw to hack through.
If you've seen enough naked women, nudity stops doing it. It completely wraps around and suddenly burkas are sexier than exposed boobs.

Also, please don't misunderstand, if you want to have romantic feelings for the people you are sleeping with, that is fine. If you want to get to know their hopes or dreams, that is fine. But I am talking about sex. If you are having sex with someone, you should talk with them about sex, because different people like different things done to them, like to different things, ect. So please, for the love of god, do not under any circumstances think that talking about romantic feelings is a substitute for talking about how rough or not rough you should be on the clitoris. That shit be important yo.

Fair point. I was getting sex mixed up with relationships (or vice versa), which is probably an indicator as to why I've never had any of either.Also, please don't misunderstand, if you want to have romantic feelings for the people you are sleeping with, that is fine.

Porn is fun, but to me it seems like taking lessons about how to have sex from porn is like taking lessons on how to fight by watching pro wrestling. Which is one of many reasons I end my sexual encounters with a flying elbow drop.
In this moment, I am Ur-phoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my int score.

I also analyze what about different action movies I do and don't like, and use that to make better action movie decisions. That doesn't mean I am taking lessons on how to kill people and blow up buildings from those movies.
