Is Porn Erotic?

It's no doubt that sex sells, or else the porn industry wouldn't be raking in millions of dollars each year. My friend and I were recounting our first experiences with porn, and how we saw our first porn flicks on the big screen. Now, I'm sure I'll be dating myself, but at the time I saw my first movie, there were no dvd's. You had to go to a theatre and see the film on the big screen. There were several well-known places around town that catered only to "those" types of movies, and some even had live shows.

I let my girlfriend talk me into going one day after school, when we had nothing better to do. She had been bugging me about going for a good month, and I finally relented. She was 18, but I had to lie, being only 17. The ticket agent looked at me funny, but he let us in anyway. We giggled nervously as we entered the dark, dank looking cavern, sparsly filled with suspicious looking men who were lost in their own world. I had no idea what to expect, since I had zero sexual experience at the time. Boy, was I in for a rude awakeng!

There would be no words to describe the images, the first images I saw, of huge naked bodies on the jumbo screen in front of me. The movies were crude, very little dialogue that meant anything, but brother was there plenty of action. And all scenes had the same action, and the same sounds. Girls of all sizes and shapes sucking down on the erect members of partner after partner, or down on all fours taking it from behind from partner after partner, or spread eagled on their backs, taking from partner after partner. And the men - penis sizes ranged from laughable to don't even try to come near me with that!-sizes. By the end of my first ordeal, sitting in the dark taking all the sights and gasping sounds, and sucking sounds, and fake screams of delight (oh, oh baby, yeah, fuck me, oh yeah), while listening to the soundtrack of the men around me obviously having their own private party in their hands, I was only mildly amused, and mostly shocked.

We did go on to see a host of other movies, but not because they turned us on. We had a good time making fun of the "actors", the lack of plot, the stupid sound effects, and the sexual techniques of the various paricipants. Not one time did I feel even a scant of arousal. Watching sex performed like this was just too raw, too much exposed, with all the close ups of tits, ass, penises pumping in and out in glorious detail, and of course the obligatory cum shots. There was no love, no relationships, just sex on auto-pilot. Who could really find that arousing? (well, the guy sitting in the seat behind me sure did, because he was pumping hard all through the movie!)

I haven't seen any porn movies lately, but I'm sure it's still more of the same. Now that you can get it on demand, I'm sure there's even a bigger audience out there. But do you really find it erotic, really stimulating to your imagination and libido? Is it better to see everything, up close and personal, and have nothing left to the imagination? Sorry, you won't see me in a XXX store anytime soon!
