As a solo porn fan, I've always pushed for more eye contact from the model with the camera. Oddly enough, that is my version of virtual reality. The funny part is there's nothing more frustrating to me than a model who keeps looking at the camera in a scene that involves more than one model. This was one of the traits that I felt made Eve Angel the best solo performer. I later found out from a photographer named Peter who ran the old site Teen Models and worked for all of the big Euro sites that Eve's boyfriend at the time was often holding the camera and she would see the filming as a way to practice her seduction with him. Worked for me and it's mostly believable because if Eve was on another site (besides her own) she would struggle to have the same kind of eye contact.
I would do what I did before I discovered porn. Watch regular mainstream television and hope for a hard nipple or cameltoe or nice butt. Then I'd just wait for the world of rebels to figure out the next big thing. Maybe it would be candid videos from beaches or dressed women telling about their favorite way to tease a man? We're too creative and rebellious of a society to say "Okay, no more sexual content of any kind." Maybe I would finally write those Erotica books I've been talking about for 20 years?
I believe in the ability to fantasize swinging WITH your spouse or significant other but don't think the actual action of it helps. The fantasy of it can often bring out emotions that we struggle with and if done together, it can build a new level of trust but shouldn't be done if either person is insecure.
I was recently factory resetting my PC. It had some strange glitch that was saying my G: drive was running out of space. I don't have a G: drive. It was popping up about every 10 minutes. My PC originally was a Windows 8.1 PC. I had used the free upgrade to Windows 10 about two or three years ago. I was worried about resetting since I was thinking it would put it back as a Windows 8.1. So, I followed Microsoft's advice and made a digital backup of my Windows 10 software on an external hard drive. Once it reset, something was wrong, it was still Windows 10. Turns out to be that once you have Windows 10, your PC knows it and remembers it so it resets to Windows 10. I then hooked the external back up with the Windows digital backup copy on it to find out when I saved the digital backup to it, it reformatted the external, wiping out 4 TB of porn. So, I lost all that porn but really, it wasn't any of my most favorite scenes.
Lee Stone. I once wrote in a review that Lee Stone annoyed me more than any porn star and said I would stop joining their site if they didn't cut back on his appearances. Once that didn't work, I started referring to him in my other reviews as "Ol' Broke Dick". There's several Eva Angeline scenes with him that he completely ruins.
Surewood has one advantage, he is always cast with those sweet, innocent models but I haven't seen a lot of him. I had to look him up.
I don't recognize Keiran Lee.
I think JMac and Johnny Sins are very similar. Most of the negativity towards them is how many scenes they are seen in. I remember JMac once saying in a scene that he had filmed 4 scenes in 3 hours. I have heard that Sins has something new going on with his wife that annoys people.
Never heard a bad thing about Ron Jeremy. The female models seem to adore him. That is the guy who once said, "I was willing to shoot porn with a bag over my head."
The two that I thought of are Pierre Woodman and James Deen.
I think there's a big fine line with it.
Some of the first porn I remember watching online was supposed to be white women who were cheated on and a group of 3-4 black guys would go to her house, tie her husband/boyfriend up and make him watch them have sex with her. They had a believable setup but really, would a man who was "beaten", tied up and forced to watch not call the police afterwards or look for his own revenge? I'm pretty sure the guys in this were from what we now know as Dogfart. And if it didn't become unbelievable enough, they always made sure the white guy was a southern type, confederate flag shirt on and so on.
The newer kind I've seen, it's often a woman who was cheated on by her husband then she calls her hot friend to come over and they make a video of their wild night of lesbian sex. It's filled with quotes like, "See, if you hadn't cheated, we were going to give you a threesome." Which I think implies she was already having the lesbian sex or that they were planning it.
The closest I've seen to very believable is the kind that look like an amateur video, camera bouncing every which way and I don't think any of those are on legitimate porn sites.
I don't usually find the thought of it as a turn-on. But if I do, I just use my imagination.
Several examples:
One of my all-time favorite models has always been known as "April Flowers" to me but Vivid has shortened her name to just "April", do you know how many models there are named April (something)?
Another Vivid though not as common of a name is Raylene. I do know there's a Raylene Richards in porn who isn't the same as VividRaylene and they're both busty, curvy, models.
We also had that phase where models were being named Indya and Chyna. Had to study a map to figure out who was who.
I think political discussions are a bad idea.
I think members hijacking a thread to turn a discussion into something much more political is a really bad idea.
I think members not having respect for other members opinions is where things get off track.
But no, I don't think political discussions should be banned.
It kind of reminds me of the gay reviewers we have had on here and the straight reviewer who liked transsexual porn and reviewed transsexual sites. You can see that none of them are active anymore. It's an unenviable situation to be on a forum or site that allows freedom of expression because so many people, especially Americans, don't think those who are different than them should have freedom of expression.
But, as Khan used to say, most of us members land on the pornusers (dotcomslash) home site. We don't see the PU agreed 7 rules that we saw the first time we came here. Those are at pornusers.com and he always pointed out #5.
"5. I believe in the freedom of expression provided for in the Constitution of the United States of America."
I think that answers if anything should ever banned. Members are supposed to agree to those 7 rules before entering.
My uncle lived with us. We had this VCR that he acted like was a pot of gold. It was a Beta and he had 6-8 Beta porn tapes. Which is why it was a pot of gold. He didn't have any other porn and had to keep the Beta player protected to watch them on. Of course, once I figured this out he bribed me with full access to it anytime I wanted to use it if I didn't tell my mom.
It's good to see a poll from an old member who hasn't been around for awhile. I picked "other" because I think my reviews are good for information, especially unbiased information but I think they're bad for the scores. A 75 would be average for most reviewers but my average is 85. This is how I write my reviews:
Facts: Content count, update frequency, highest video resolution and an in-general date for how long they have had that option, if they have pictures and if they're downloadable, my tested download speed, number of models, race/shape of models. Type of content like solo, hardcore, etc.
Sort of facts: Potential recycling, if things are offensive (subjective word but if it's offensive to me it's a sort of fact). The site's ethics in billing.
Not facts: My opinions about a site's webmaster being stubborn and my score.
I always have tried to give a person a list of facts for them to focus on those and say, "I don't care what he scores it, I would love this content!" Works the opposite way too.
Music is a huge part of my life and it's mainly because of the emotions it pulls out of me. I'll probably break the character limit:
Song that always makes me smile:
Mungo Jerry - In the Summertime. My dad and uncle were very stoic and strict men, but they would put the leisure suits on, platform shoes, drink in their hand and would dance to this song.
The artist that hits my emotions the hardest is Tori Amos. Tori's song, "The Winter" has brought tears to my eyes and I'm not an emotional person. All of her music works on my emotions, but that one is the most powerful for me.
On a similar note, my favorite band is Tool. They also run my emotions, but not like Tori. I first heard Tool in LA, when I was 16-17, before they were even signed and they were the first rock/metal band I liked that well.
Iron Maiden pushes me, kind of inspiring, especially their Rock in Rio album where hundreds of thousands of non-English speaking Brazilians sing every word in the background.
Then it moves over to rap/hip-hop. Gangster rap was huge when I was in high school in LA. Everyone listened to NWA and everyone loved Ice Cube. Not me, I preferred Ice-T, also a LA rapper and now actor. His song, "LGBNAF" was the first really dirty rap song I ever heard and thought it was the greatest song ever.
Wu-Tang Clan. I was the weird West Coast kid who loved the East Coast group. Still do and their side project song, "Mystery of Shadowboxing (feat Method Man)" is #1 and #10 on my workout playlist.
On that note, I like playing Mary J. Blige's song, "You're All I Need" for people who only hear radio versions, since it is severely censored and is hugely popular still today. The uncensored/dirty version features Method Man of Wu-Tang and it's good for laughs to see people look at the speakers expecting the radio version.
Then there's Johnny Cash. I smile anytime I hear his songs from the Tennessee Three era, has the thump-te-de-thump sound in all songs. My grandmother adored Johnny Cash and always played his music. On the other hand, I really like his cover of "Hurt", but can't watch the video. That's the closest anyone has gotten to truly making art out of music, but once you realize what's going on, it's hard to watch. If it's not known, Johnny and June had moved out of their house which became the Johnny Cash Museum. About halfway through the video the setting changes. They're back in the house and the already sick and dying Cash pours emotions out as he's "singing". The song was originally about heroin addiction, but Johnny changed almost no lyrics and made it about a regretful, dying man looking back at all the time and energy he wasted.
Another that makes me smile, but only if it's the video. Xzibit's "Concentrate". That woman in the middle in the black kimono tops all porn stars for me!
Last, obscure rap group/song, Psycho Realm, "In this Lifetime" makes me smile a lot if it's the video. I'm in the video and I grew up with those guys.
I picked "don't care who knows".
Having said that, I don't exactly offer up "I watch porn" in conversation either. I do offer my username here at PU for friends to read my reviews so if they're interested in a site they'll join through PU's links.
Funny thing is and I would wonder if it applies to other members here, no one who knows me casually, would ever expect my interest in porn. There's a younger woman who works with my mom that I've become a bit of a mentor to in psychology. More than anything, she's most impressed by me rarely "cussing". I think that's how I look at porn too. There's a time for it, just like there's a time for cussing, but it wouldn't bother me to tell anyone about my interest in porn and most people would be surprised how many people find my interest in porn to be very interesting and even intriguing.
I would say don't do any of those four things! I haven't had too many experiences of being wronged by a site, but I don't even like it when webmasters start offering discounts and especially "swag". Have had a couple do that on here. I am not walking around with a t-shirt on that says a porn site's name on it. After I've thought about it, maybe the "extend membership" is one that would be acceptable. Seems like Twisty's and maybe 21 Sextury had problems about 5-6 years ago and they extended all their members memberships by a month. Most of the wronging I've experienced probably couldn't be fixed. Like the false advertising of content before I joined, only to join and see that they don't have the content they advertised. That's an older one, but it used to be very common during the European boom in the 2005-09 range. I remember one showed Eve Angel as a featured model. I joined it. Got inside, went to Eve's page and it said "coming soon!" How can she be a featured model without content? That was frustrating.
I don't know if I've ever posted about VR, but I remember when PU had the VR set they were offering. Don't know if I posted it there or not, but I can't use VR. Crazy and a nice reminder to my youth, I was stabbed above my eye as a teenager, right around the eyebrow. It still causes some vision problems in that eye, but it also makes it impossible for me to use VR since it will only mess more with how my eye processes what it sees. I haven't even tried the PS4, sticking with the Xbox One, because Sony pushes the VR so much and I know I can't use it. Just thought I would post that if it seems like I've not shown interest towards or against VR.
Admittedly, I've lost some interest in it. I was concerned about the inclusion of dragons and they do hurt the show for me. I have this season's episodes on the DVR, but haven't watched any of them. My favorite character at this point is The Hound, which means he'll get killed soon. I've still not gotten over Ned. It would probably get my attention most if Daenerys is killed. Also think they might have hurt the suspense of the show when THE part with Jon happened. Not that I dislike him, but nothing feels final on the show now.
I really couldn't answer this one except with "other". I had mentioned in a forum thread, Zara White(s), as being a believable actress. There's a DVD called, "Curse of the Catwoman" where she's completely believable. Thing is, I don't know if that's good acting or if she was just really horny lol.
My mom found several very old Hustler magazines in my room. She asked where I got them. I blamed my uncle. She called him, cussed him out, told him what a worthless piece of an uncle he was. Next time I saw him, he said, "What did you do? Your mom called me cussing me out. I figured you blamed something on me. Porn or alcohol?"
Everybody that had that uncle ... misses that uncle.
I accidentally joined Vivid a year ago, not checking PU first, it was streaming only. I canceled it and never went back to it.
Bad thing is, I don't download near as much as I used to. I'm usually lucky to download 50-100 GB from a site these days, but removing that download option just doesn't work for me. Maybe if they only charged whatever their price is for one month/12 months.
We pay roughly $10 a month for Netflix and $10 a month for Amazon Prime, but I watch those on average, an hour a day. I only watch porn for an average of about 10 minutes a day (not an everyday thing anymore). So a streaming-only porn site might could convince me to join for $30-$36 a year. Now I'm curious if any of the streaming sites offer yearly cheap memberships like that?
The few sites that are sticking to their strength (FTV, ALS Scan, Met-Art, Kink) are still very good, but beyond those, it's like every site (Twistys and 21 Sextury are the best examples) has merged into a network and we have our choice of anal, older men/women with younger men/women, step-brother/sister/mother/father, if the music industry followed the porn industry, 95% of bands would sound like whatever is at the top of the sales chart. I don't see any way for internet porn to return to its 2005-self.
I was watching an old show of Howard Stern's. He brought these various women in and had them talk dirty to him and two of the other guys (Fred was one, maybe Jackie was the other). They then voted who did the best and the winner won a cash prize.
The girl who won was generally looked at as the least physically attractive. Her whole dialogue with them was based around what they (the men) wanted her to do to them. The other two women kept talking about themselves, like "Do you want to see me naked?" The winning woman would have said instead, "I want to slide my hand down your pants", as example.
Even though porn is a little different, I do think the overly-aggressive dirty talkers can be as bad if not worse than the ones who don't talk dirty at all. Eva Angelina (not Eve Angel) was one of my favorite hardcore performers for well over a year, but her constant jabbering, constant screams, constant oh God, oh God, oh God, oh God got on my last nerve. There's something better about a woman who comes off as not so much shy, but reserved, who then just says something dirty out of the blue.
I have bought a few vinyls, but only because they're special editions available only on vinyl. I rip those to high quality digital files. I did recently buy my uncle a Denon turntable to replace his old one, but I personally don't have a turntable.
We listen to music in our house roughly 95% of every day. I haven't adjusted to the peace and quiet of a smaller city and can't sleep without some kind of noise. My preferred one there is Sleep Like A Princess (no, I'm not kidding), it has a nice guitar tone similar to Santana's music.
My music collection has reached areas of the unknown. I'm over 3 TB now with pretty much every possible genre covered. I'm actually more obsessive about music than porn.
I'm always surprised by how many people haven't seen it. My wife, who loves Christmas movies, had never seen it. It's now her favorite. Hard to believe, but I can still remember reading Jean's book back in maybe 9th grade, then watching the movie a few years later and trying to remember where I had heard the stories, in the movie, from.
