I have to watch porn for school. Really.
I'm taking a class in Human Sexuality (it's a Psychology class) and one of our research projects is to identify examples of pornographic and non-pornographic sexual imagery.

You read that right: I am gettting school credits to watch hot people fuck! I love college! :D

1. God, I really need to get my hands on a course catalog,
so I can see what kind of classes I could take that might offer those kinds of assignments. :P

14. Whatever you do, don't take "Women's Studies."
It's not what you think.

2. Be sure to watch good porn.
I'm looking forward to Jim's movie being finished. I want to see what he produces.

8. And just to clarify to others: He's the director/producer, not an actor.

6. Well, Gonzo porn is some of the best stuff out there.
And that has no plot at all.

10. The funny thing is
The industry assumption is that women want plotlines and high production values and men just want to see hot sex.

Personally I don't watch porn for plot or production values (although I don't want the latter to insult me as a purchaser) and the one thing I've learned the hard way is that anything marketed toward women or couples will bore me to tears.

11. The Pirates of the Caribbean ripoff is good and it has high production
values & plot, but it's also hilarious and features relatively hot sex.

16. Oh god. I do.
Edited on Wed Oct-18-06 12:01 AM by crim son
Without the plot, it's just fucking. I can do that myself!
On edit: Where the hell is California Peggy anyway?

18. If I wanted a plot, I'd watch a regular movie.
Porn doesn't need a plot.

20. I really don't agree.

But I am what you call an "intellectual". It's my curse, and I must bear it. :rofl:

And if you saw me spill vodka and grapefruit down the front of my sweatshirt right now, you'd be, like, totally intimidated and turned on!

22. ...
:rofl:

My cousin has made a career out of critiquing porn. Think stand-up comedy meets thesis critique of porn. LeftyMom is a fan of his.

4. Of course. Bad porn is much worse than none at all.
I got a pay per view cable porn movie once. There was kinda a plot (I'm of the "if I wanted to see a story I'd have rented a real movie" school on that) and the sex was vaugely suggested at best and very vanilla. Not hot. It was horrible and not at all sexy. :(

13. I am deeply embarrassed to admit that I got a C+ in
Human Sexuality. But that's because Bob Kraken was in my class, and he was pierced all over and wore eyeliner. Who can blame me? Also, our teacher was a paraplegic who felt it was his duty to tell us the details of the various ups and downs of sexual arousal in the partially paralyzed. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

25. I've been writing a dissertation on pornography and sexuality
