There is a lot of hearsay going around about the wonderful world of porn. Whether it’s about the images they project as being the ultimate norm to the industry as a whole. Of course, you can’t believe everything you hear because hello, people like to spread rumors as much as butter on bread. With that, we’re here to debunk some porn myths we’ve heard and spill the tea about their reality.
Hair Is Disgusting
The reason most guys are rocking a bald look downstairs in porn is so that their peckers appear bigger. Because hello, cock is what sells for men in porn. So while most men are hairless, that doesn’t mean we don’t love when a man has hair down there. It’s just a production decision on set.
Only Well Hung Dudes Have Hot Sex
No way! Let’s be real, not every dude is packing a porn-size dick. That’s not the reality we live in, but we do live in one where guys with penises of all sizes are having satisfying sex with their partners and randoms from Grindr.
Spit Is Lube
People in porn rarely reach for lube. What’s that all about? Have you ever tried to have sex sans lube? It’s a nightmare and quite frankly the worst. Spit may lubricate to a point but that point is over and done with fast because it dries fast and doesn’t have the lasting power that actual lube does.
Boners Last Forever
Unless you are a viral man and pop a blue pill, there is no way you’re going to be hard for as long as some guys appear to be in porn. What we see is the culmination of hours of shooting. Which means hours of fluffing dudes and getting them ready for take two, three, and more.
Porn Stars Are Damaged Goods
Many like to believe that those in the adult industry landed there because they came from horrible upbringings that led them down the wrong path. That’s not always the case. Take Aaron Lawrence for example. He earned a BS in psychology before entering the adult industry. When you can make bank having sex, and you’re great at it, why not?
It’s Misogynistic and Leads To Violent Behavior
The average porn is not any more misogynistic or violent as mainstream movies. Unless you’re seeking out the rough stuff, porn is pretty basic in its delivery. Two or more hot people looking to get their rocks off while we watch. Placing all the blame on porn for violence and misogyny in the world is asinine as most men who watch porn aren’t running around with the idea that they’re the top dog, striking out.
Porn Is Horrible For Relationships
If a guy would rather watch porn than be with his partner, then yes there is a problem. For most though, porn is just something we do when we’re horny and need to get it on with ourselves. OR it can be something we enjoy together. Watching porn is far from horrible for couples because it acts as not only a turn one, but can help one another learn what the other wants in order to spice things up in the bedroom.
Unprotected Sex is A-Okay
If you are an adult you should be able to realize that porn is the fantasy version of sex than perhaps you’re not only enough to be having sex. Condoms are rarely used in porn because when we tune in we want to see flesh on flesh action. That doesn’t mean sex should be unprotected in the real world all of the time.
Porn Leads to Perversions
There are some out there who believe those who engage in watching porn will eventually wind up on the dark web watching for some crazy ass shit that could get them locked up. In most cases, people who are on the dark web looking for things that are taboo are messed up and far from those, mentally, than those who want to sit back with a good old fashion porn.
