Have you ever had a porn ‘dry spell’? I’m used to joining new sites regularly and then writing and posting reviews here but I’ve hit a dry spell. Lately nothing new has interested me so any memberships I have are just rejoins of sites I know and like. And if there is nothing new to report on there’s no sense in rewriting a review. Have you ever his a porn dry spell? It isn't that I’ve lost interest, because I haven’t, but that nothing seems to really grab my attention. I go to TBP daily to see if there are any new sites of interest but nothing is there that seems to do it for me. Any thoughts? | |

I think it's just the human condition. Or human nature. The first time you are introduced to porn, or a site that blows you away, you think it's fantastic. It's fresh, powerful, erotic. Then, as time goes by (sometimes shorter than other periods), the eroticism drops. It could take years or months for this to happen. I remember looking at Playboy magazine in the 1960s. And Penthouse magazine in the 1970s. Some of the models were absolutely lovely. I realize the magazines did a professional job of presenting the models in the best light possible, but it was an erotic experience just looking at the photos of these women. Switch to today, with internet porn. Now you have videos as well as photos. And there are an amazing amount of attractive to lovely young models. But it's only human nature to become slightly jaded after surfing the sites we've joined. For some PU members, I think the only time we will have lost all interest in porn will be when we are six feet under. Or possibly cremated--do our urges vanish if we are incinerated instead of buried? | |

I do have dry spells myself and am a long time porn user. I collected foreign magazines in the 80's and 90's then switched to video later. I had periods where I craved it then periods where nothing really caught my interest. Currently I am in a similar dry spell. I have been kinda of uninterested for about 3 months though I do have a subscription to a good site and still visit it a couple times a week my interest is waning. I am myself thinking of dropping it and waiting until my interest peaks again. Nothing abnormal just our reactions to events and times around us. | |

There are so few sites that produce the kind of erotica I enjoy. It only takes a month subscription to download what they load-up in a year, so that leaves gaps between subscriptions. I sometimes subscribe to a new site, just to be disappointed. Can't give you a count how many sites I've joined, only to find they are not anywhere near what I hoped for. So naturally there are months where I simply don't join any site and just wait until my favorite sites have enough material to make it worthwhile. Maybe I'm spoiled by DDF and 21Sextuary. They certainly have some of the most beautiful women and the best photography I find on the internet. At least they have what I desire. Have not found any sites to match them, and I've tried. Sadly some sites I used to visit have gone downhill or have passed on. I keep searching. Warning Will Robinson | |

I've seen this day coming for the last five years. That's why I'm not surprised that we are hitting a dry spell. Can anyone tell me how many of the new sites listed on TBP in the last 3 months are worth bothering to visit? of those are any worth joining? I haven't seen an actual brand new site worth joining other than Blacked and that is already a site that is nearly a year old. All I see when I visit's TBP "new site" section are sites promising a lot and not delivering on anything or sites offering old content as though it was new. It's hard to not hit a dry spell of new sites when the industry no longer produces them Long live the Brown Coats. | |

A dry spell? I've been in a dry spell for years, which is pretty much why I haven't been active on here in ages. There's like next to nothing new out there that appeals to me and I get tired of looking at the same 4 or 5 sites all of the time. I spend most of my time going over my collection to edit the video I already have on my drives. Color corrections and cutting out the parts of scenes that don't appeal to me take up plenty of time while I wait for a miracle to appear online. Realistically I don't see that happening, but I can hope... Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

I think the dry spell is at it's worst when it comes to artistic fetish photography. I'm talking about the type of site where photography is the focus, the photographer puts their name behind their work, and they strive to produce a truly artistic rendering of fetish themes. There are a number of established sites out there still doing this extremely well, and that cannot be overlooked, but I haven't seen any new sites along these lines over the past year. Every time I see a new site that looks promising, the emphasis tends to be on video, with photos that are either absent, stills of the video, or just with quality that clearly took a lower priority than video. I guess its market demands at work, because it seems to be commonly said that video converts much better than photos. It's too bad for the photo fans, maybe things will change someday, but for now I am just glad for the dedicated handful of artistic fetish photography sites still out there. Better to be pissed on, than to be pissed off. | |

I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one going through this. I think there's a personal element, perhaps boredom, but I do agree that the quality of sites seems to have slipped. I'll continue to join some of my old favorites like Evil Angel, Amateur Allure, Hard X, Erotica X and sites like that but without joining new sites I won't be writing as many reviews as I used to. But who knows? Maybe things will pick up in the industry. | |

I'm doing something similar to pass the time. I've been reorganizing parts of my collection while waiting for things to improve. The good news is that TBP put up some new links that look interesting and might break this dry spell. | |
