I've had a subscription to Playboy magazine and have been reading it for the past several years.
There's no shame in that, and it might be a cliche but I actually spend about 90% of my time reading the articles.
Seriously.
I'm not going to lie and say that I don't also look at the pictures, however, it's the articles and monthly interview that are usually more entertaining (the pics are too air-brushed and tame for my tastes).
The advisor column is also a good source for hilarity, and this month I burst out laughing as I read this:
"My friends and i sometimes share porn clips by e-mail and joke about masturbation . . . But once in a while we together to drink, and the host will put a porno in the DVD player. That's when the awkwardness begins, because as the film goes on everyone gets horny and is dying to jerk off. The last time it happened I tried to end the silent tension by suggesting a circle jerk. Everyone called me a pervert. What do you recommend in this situation."
Answer: Calling it a night.
I couldn't agree more, but this situation should have never arisen (pun intended) in the first place.
There are very few circumstances that call for a group of grown men to watch porno together - it's one of those activities that is best done alone or with one or several other women.
Nothing good can come of it, and this guy's suggestion of a circle jerk just turned an awkward situation from bad to worse.
I have no sympathy for their plight, however, as this kind of activity stopped being fun somewhere around middle school and as my grandmother always said "if you play with matches you're going to get burned."
Or asked to participate in a circle jerk as the case may be.
-BDS
OMG!
Is that guy for real? They must be young, around 18-21, I hope!!
Cos who does that? Watches porno's with friends n then says a circle jerk??
EWWW
Dreamlover - My guess is that this guy is older than college-age, but regardless of his years on this Earth a circle jerk is NEVER a reasonable suggestion.
Jenni222 - I've heard those same kind of rumors, and I would be in the opposite camp as I'd rather see a group of girls because women look better than men but I'm inherently biased that way, so . . .
I'm wondering how this guy even has any friends left ....
He damn sure won't get invited to the next porno-watching party - which might not be such a bad thing in retrospect.
On the plus side, his suggestion might be the catalyst that these silly bastards need to turn off the porno, get off the couch and go somewhere.
OH!!! MY!!!
Personally his fellow porn watchers got what they asked for...it just seems creepy for a bunch of men to sit around and watch porn like that.
Sarcastic - It is creepy and just plain wrong once you reach a certain age; like 13 for instance.
Dating - How much space do you have on your site because I could expand on that subject for quite awhile.
Who wants to leave that kind of a party?
Nothing tops that . . .
I think guys need to be more open minded. If you ask me, men commit to worse things in general, and deciding to put a porn on in the same sense is a tease in general; you cant put on a movie with hot women in it who are doing things you wish your wife or girlfriend would do, and not have the thought of masterbation, it's like placing beer in from of men, and not allowing them to touch it? I'm 21, and my point of view on this is quite simple, put a porn on in front of me, I might just decide to jerk it, got a problem, leave the room...BUT I don't find myself on any particular night, or day, sitting in a room of men, watching porn; I'm not ready for that kind of relationship with my guy friends, and nor can I see myself ever. Plus, most men are pussy's anyways. ;oP If a women port on a porn, it wouldn't be for the fact of sexual excitement, but for the matter and conversation to their fittness, choice of involvement, and style.
