I'm sorry, but, they do realize gay men are a lot more than just cruising sex club stereotypes in porn right? Porn that is overwhelmingly consumed by, and produced for, women? Just like lesbian porn is largely consumed by men, stats (last I checked) indicate gay porn is mostly consumed by women.

Point being, I've never in my life called any orifice or organ of mine any synonym for "vagina" nor would I do so. Nobody I've ever hung out with, dated, spoken to, has ever done so. But go ahead, just make homophobic assumptions and stereotypes about every man who loves other men, and erase our sexuality, just because you're a bunch of creeps who want to predate on (and apparently hate) gay men. Jesus.

I was curious about your claim, so looked it up and found that PornHub compiled some statistics: https://www.pornhub.com/insights/girls-like-boys-who-like-boys

Women are more likely to consume gay porn than men are (not a big surprise given that most men are straight), but only 37% of PornHub's gay porn viewers are women.

These stats are from 2017.

Regardless, I don't think you're wrong--stereotypes about gay men are ubiquitous. Though take one look in any of the usual LGBT communities and you'll find that they're fair game for those stereotypes.

From your link:

Overall, Gay Male porn is still the second most popular category among women, but for those over the age of 45 it surpasses “Lesbian” to become the #1 most viewed category.

So ''lesbian'' is the first most popular category among women, and "gay men" the second? What? Really? Why are women watching so much of same sex porn?

Probably because even fake lesbianism is hotter than straight porn. Lol. Straight porn is terrible. But women watching gay porn is always a mystery to me, but I guess it’s the same as how straight men watch lesbians. I figure women watching gay men are superstraight, so two men would be appealing?

To be frank industry porn of any orientation is pretty disgusting to watch and hear. Nobody has sex like that and it's really off putting. If you have an amateur group that has good technology, they tend to be a lot more sane in terms of having sex. Also because the people who meet up to film it tend to like one another on some level.

It’s all pretty fucking gross, I agree. Especially fake porny noises. I’ve even seen some amateur lesbian porn where they were really hamming it up. I just stopped supporting the industry in general. It’s 99.999% yuck. There are so many disturbing trends happening in porn, and I don’t want to even know what is becoming normalized.

I think it is mostly because in Straight porn sex ends when man finishes, and not when woman. While in lesbian porn it is different. And gay porn is because there two hot men I suppose.

Lesbian porn has women with long fingernails and porny looks. Plus they look like bad lays. lol. It takes so long to find anything that looks pleasurable. It’s crazy in 2020 that women are sex objects but depictions of female pleasure are so incredibly fake.

Yeah, and there almost never lesbians in it, plus almost always they are doing "appealing" to viewer, like third (male, I suppose) may join in any time. Very impractical, when we tried to repeat porn with one of my first gf and did not knew what to do :D

Scripted lesbian porn is so bad, and there's barely any good amateur stuff

Yeah for real, even the amateurs technique looks amateur half the time.

The fingernails are a dead giveaway (irl anyway).

I'm personally not into porn, but I know many women who love gay porn. I've talked about it with some of them, and they've told it's not only because they think it's hot, but also because they don't like how women are represented in porn. Also, many of them don't like seeing an avatar of themselves in degrading situations (which is very common in porn that has female actors). I guess it's just something they find easier to consume than straight or lesbian porn, even if they are attracted to women, too.

M/F always has an inherent power imbalance I don't feel like caring about while watching porn.
