As Equals

We all have things which arouse us. Particularly men because we're so visually oriented. But, in the article "Why I Only Watch Gay Porn," by Tracybyfire, for Medium gives some starting reasons why she prefers M-M porn. She's done a lot of porn viewing in research for her erotica writing and discovered, straight porn "really wasn’t my thing."

Too much awkward digging and probing, not to mention the really crappy dialogue.

But gay porn, "was it. Two men, sometimes more, acting as equals, sometimes less. No misogyny, better dialogue, more abs, less awkward clitoral stimulation. It was magical.

Even if there was a power struggle, it didn’t reek of men’s domination over women. In gay porn, it’s an even playing field from the start.

I get mixed reactions when I tell anyone that I vastly prefer gay porn over straight porn. People rarely understand, except for gay men. They get it, and so do I."

But surprisingly enough, or maybe not, straight men also love gay porn. It used to be that straight men would say the close-ups of cocks and money shots enabled them to relate. In what they called "transference," they could imagine it happening to them.

But, with gay porn, I think it stems right back to what Tracy is saying. The men in gay porn are equals - there's equal time, equal stimulation, equal satisfaction.

And the camera is right there with the close-up on the cocks and money shots.
