• oh wait, sorry. NSFW but only barely. Plus it's sunday and what do you expect.
• Wait, lesbian porn is for lesbians?
• WHY DO YOU HATE BRUISE BRUBAKER
• I agree whole heartedly with this chick. I hate fake lesbo porn only slightly less than I hate "feminist erotica". I like my porn hardcore and direct. All penetration, all the time. (This may be TMI, but if you guys can tell me how much you wanna bang Miss McDonald, I can tell you my porn preferences.)
• Why are the only evident critics of this genre men?! I am disgusted by femme on femme action, but I know it pays the bills. Reclaim your sexuality, ladies; the tweakers want to steal it as usual.
• Instead of "critics" I meant consumers. Big diff.
• You might not have noticed that the critic in this article is in fact a woman.
• I totally agree as well. Take some pride in your work, ladies!
• And hey, I have to: Monkeyfilter: All penetration, all the time.
• Cuz it's porn, which is ridiculous about 97.8% of the time.
• Real lesbian porn is directed at lesbians. The fake lesbian porn (i.e. 99.8% of woman-to-woman action), is sold to men who get off on the fantasy. Real lesbians scare a lot of heterosexual men, and they have beauty standards that don't necessarily jibe well with the het. male standards. Want real lesbian porn? Look for smaller production houses, or the vast home-made market.
• How can any of those top ten reasons not also apply to male/female porn? Shouldn't it just be the top ten reasons to hate porn? But, no. Just like porn itself, the girl on girl action is the moneymaker. Therefore, it follows that any criticism should talk about girl on girl despite the fact that the criticism could apply to all.
• Want real lesbian porn? NO!
• I think one of the reasons that the critic was targeting girl-on-girl porn is because it IS the moneymaker. She's pointing out that throwing some random women together in order to capitalize on the "hot lesbo action" market is really stupid when they don't really know what to do with each other. At least, that's how I read it. But you're right bernockle, those are all flaws in straight porn too.
• Fake lesbian porn is so funny and obvious. (It's like when homophobic guys go to the movies together and leave an empty seat between them.) The "I'm just doing this because I have to -- I'm not gay!" vibe seems to defeat the purpose of the whole thing. But then, I'm a girl, so I'm not the target audience for this.
• From the page:

  I resent having to watch so much of it.

  Am I th only one who can see the obvious solution to this predicament?
• A lot of "lesbian" porno action is more trying to convey that the women are so horny that they'd do anyone, even you, and are just doing each other until you come along... It's rare that you see two women who seem genuinely hot for each other, which is a shame because seeing porn where people seem to be actually loving what's happening turns my crank something fierce. Reminds me of a woman who told her boyfriend that he could bring home any porn he wanted only if the people on the cover were smiling and seemed to genuinely be having fun. He's still looking last I heard. Then again, it wouldn't do much for the het market if the actresses were genuinely and obviously uninterested in the viewer joining in.
• I'm a bloke, and this is one of the (few) genres that doesn't interest me. At all.
• As a freshman in college - which is when you're supposed to be checking out the whole girl-on-girl thing, you know, just to make sure - I dated someone whose mom's girlfriend was a lesbian porn star. As in, for real lesbian porn for lesbians. Wow did I know instantly that I was straight. That woman was like a linebacker. By the time I shook her hand I knew that I, and practically half the girls in my dorm, were just trying bi for the attention factor, and had no real interest in lesbians. I love epiphanic moments like that, but all the same, I wish I'd met her my senior year.
• yentruoc: So you're a woman but were also a freshman?
• Yeah... fake lesbo porn makes me sick. Just give me Barnyard Lovin' Vol. 7 any day.....
• Young women who experiment with other girls (either in public or with men present) like to think that they are being liberated and experimental. In fact, what many of these women are doing (and I am obviously talking about the ones who have no real attraction to women) is bringing the stereotypical male porno fantasy to life for the men. It is almost diabolical that men have women acting out the men's ultimate fantasy without even having to goad them into it. The women want to do it to show how evolved they are. If a woman would not mess around with another woman on a deserted island, then maybe she should question her motives for messing around with the other woman in another context.
• In porn, in real sexual activity: if those involved aren't giggling at some point, somebody's faking it. Oh.Yes.
• You mean I've been faking it all my life? Sad.
