Porn

[nailit]

Hope this post doesnt get deleted, its a serious query.
Just why is porn mainly seen as a 'man' thing?
I'm a man and I like porn. Ive had girlfriends who have loved a bit of porn (especialy if that porn has got a 'story' to it and not just sex acts been filmed), Ive had other girlfriends who have hated it and seen it as been degrading to women (but curiously not degrading to men...) Overall though, porn is seen as a man thing. Why is that? And why is it seen as degrading to women but not to men?
Dont want a smutty thread here, I'm genuinely curious in the different ways we see things.

There`s a programme on BBC3 about this subject at the moment, if anyone`s interested.

..and some of the comments from the teenagers in the programme are lot more mature and sensible than some of the ones on here.

I've seen that before, I think AB today has been a far better investigation into the current tastes and attitudes on Porn

I'm with B00 on porn (well not literally). I like watching it at home with my partner for the purpose of foreplay, nothing more.

PS I can still see and mark best answer on my own questions.

divebuddy I'm not anti-porn for consenting ADULTS but you have to see it for what it is,not all jolly good sex fun, there is an underlying not very nice base to this Industry. I'm broad minded, have lived a bit you know, but not felt the need to go dogging in lay by's or throw my keys into the pot at some nice middle class 'party'. I've had my moments but hopefully they were not on film lol!

'Men watch porn because they can't get what they want at home'

In some cases probably yes, but some of us watch it simply to supplement a healthy home sex life
