I have a big problem with a very common feature found in most porn today: the facial. Whenever I watch some porn, this is often the denouement of the copulative act. This was not always the case: when porn first went mainstream about thirty years ago with the arrival of the home video, the facial was only occasionally the conclusion to most of the fucking scenes, the cum shot usually reserved for the woman’s stomach, breasts, or ass. Then, with the advent of the internet, the facial became the de rigeur conclusion of most porn scenes. Now it is as ubiquitous as porn itself.
However, there is a major problem with most facial scenes. The porn industry needs to take notice of this, because this problems seems to be affecting the overall aesthetic quality of many of these vignettes of decadence.
The problem is this: most of the girls who are having their faces coated with fresh man juice seem not to be enjoying the experience. This violates the fundamental law of all porn: the woman MUST seem to be enjoying whatever is happening to her. Even if they are not enjoying, they at least have to ACT and seem to be enjoying it. Otherwise the piece loses all its power and appeal. Men don’t want to jerk off to women who seem to be disinterested in sex. Most men already have that with their wives and girlfriends. Porn is about fantasy, not reality.
After a thorough and systematic study of various types of porn, I have found that most of girls receiving facials usually do so with contorted expression of painful disgust. Their eyes are closed, their lips shut tight, their faces slightly turned away to lessen the impact of the ejaculation. Once covered with the man goo, they refuse to open their eyes, lick the precious cum up, and delight in the taste. No, rather, they wipe it off daintily with their fingers as if they were wiping dog shit off their faces. This is not what men want. What works for facials are women who seem eager, hungry for the semen, who open their mouths and, like some patient at a doctor’s office about to receive a throat exam, stick out their tongues to be coated with the creamy elixir. They laugh, giggle, coo, and moan at the mere thought of being covered orally by the orgasm; they want to eat every last drop, including milking whatever is left from his semi erect penis; they do not seem squeamish, grossed out, disgusted and repulsed by the this most decadent act of modern filmography. No, the facial porn that works depicts willing and adventurous women; but too often, most often in fact, the women seem to act the opposite. They seem to be rejecting the precious jizz. This is a lethal artistic mistake for porn. It even has the potential to threaten the entire industry. In these tough economic times, America still needs at least one industry that is strong and functional. The bad facial could be to porn what the Japanese car was the American auto industry.
This needs to change. I ask the porn film industry and the directors who create this world, I beg them, to be more careful in directing their young and aspiring starlets when it comes to this most important part of the film. A porn flick that ends with a bad facial has the potential to ruin the entire effort, an effort that may have included great visual shots, subtle designs, sharp dialogue, and abundant feminine beauty awash in a sea of fucking. A single bad facial can destroy all that.
So please, let us have decent facials from now on. If not, I may have to take up the cause myself, and start directing my own porn films, and show the adult industry what facials should be. Any girls interested in this endeavor can email me their resumes. Legitimate, completely professional auditions will ensue. Stardom may happen for some. I know it would for me.

Do you ever feel guilty after you watch porn?

It is hard to say whether I feel guilty after watching porn or if it is more a feeling of mental corrosion. It also depends on what you define as porn. If you mean hard core stuff, then yes, I might have guilty feelings after watching it, or feelings that I have done something wrong. I am always a bit worried about being drawn into something that might be inherently evil. If it is merely an erotic photo of a naked woman, then I really do not have a whole lot of guilt about that. But as I said, these things are hard to answer.

I feel guilty after watching sex scenes in movies. Mostly I feel awkward though. I usually skip them. I don’t really understand porn.
Someone I know sent me a link to a porn clip once. I felt immediately disgusted but watched out of curiosity and felt oddly disgusted and aroused again. I haven’t really sought to pursue that again.
Do you ever feel that way racer?

Mandy,
I always hate seeing a sex scene when I am in a theater, or just watching a movie with mixed company or with someone I really do not know too well. The vast majority of the more graphic sex scenes, probably 99% of sex scenes in a movie are just thrown in their for the audience titillation and have little to do with the actual meaning of the movie, unless it is a movie that deals with some sort of sexual theme. Older movies simply implied sex and got the job of entertaining done quite well. For me it was a superior way of conveying eroticism.
As far as out right porn, I usually do feel some sort of combo of arousal and disgust at myself for being so drawn into it. As I have written before, most porn is pretty trashy, so it is easy to feel disgusted after watching it. I honestly don’t watch any of that cruder stuff. However, there is some porn that is pretty hot, when the couples are hot and seem to be really enjoying it in a natural setting. Lesbian porn can be pretty hot that way, when you have many beauties in one place doing forbidden things. But that stuff is few and far between. Sometimes I watch that or good regular porn, just for the pleasure of watching beautiful people fucking. Still, I can leave that feeling ambiguous about whether I should have even watched that.

The only time, I think, one should fee guilty for watching porn is if the participants aren’t enjoying themselves. I don’t even want to see an act. If the man and woman are enjoying themselves, then good pornography is like laughter. It’s contagious. Enjoy.

I agree with you that I do not enjoy seeing porn where the participants don’t seem to be enjoying themselves. And yes, good porn is like laughter and it is contagious.
