While in the shower earlier, I was thinking how much fun this could be! I have never watched porn with others, but would be happy (I think!!) to give it a go!
Does anyone fancy getting together and watching Debbie does Dallas or Shaving Ryan's Privates?
Obviously, it would be a male-only meet. Is anyone up for it (fnar fnar)?

Well the answer would be yes, but perhaps if the meet were in the Outer Hebrides where I would be unlikely to bump into anyone I know.
Still, I suppose I shall have a ponder.

Or rather, I've seen an edited version without all the distracting sex and nudity, leaving us to consider the wonderfully nuanced performances of the cast members.

Obviously there's a connection. On the other thread, Stoo wanted to attend a meet where he could watch live girlies parade in (or at least giggle over) skimpy undies and play with dildos. On this thread he wants to watch women - and maybe some men - have sex. In both cases, the girlies are the entertainment! He's being totally consistent

I was just expressing my enthusiasm!! You don't understand the kind of hell week I've had. You try having the CFO take an entirely too keen interest in what you're doing and see how tempting mindless sex is after that. Even if it is other people doing it.

This might be worth having my passport renewed Just In Case for.
Actually I have quite fond memories of co-ed gatherings in another group I was in, known as "Smut and Spaghetti" nights. Lots of people, big screen TV, spaghetti dinner. Sarcastic comment abounded ("oh my god. THOSE NAILS!"). If I had a bigger living room or teevee I'd host some myself and get the Helpful People at Good Vibes, just down the block, to recommend titles.

Re: going to watch porn. Despite arguments about choice, I tend to find porn exploitative. And there's something sordid and rather embarrassing about it. Also, from my limited viewing of it, the acting's really crap. I prefer films where sex is explored in a more intelligent and less in your face way.

Well, I went to a lecture by Jo Ind at Greenbelt last year (she's a very good speaker) and she said that there are people who are "visual" and people who are "cerebral". Regarding what turns you on. There are some other categories as well, auditory might have been one of them.
Now, I suspect "cerebral" is pretty relevant to me. Because I don't really notice whether I find someone attractive or not - hardly ever, anyway - until they say something strikingly intelligent or make me laugh. And then I might think " Oh and so-and-so is rather cute too".
Being wired up like that makes porn a bit redundant, because the most interesting part of what makes the person tick is not what you're seeing.
That and having seen, I suppose, several hundred people naked over the years working as a doctor, you really have seen various versions of it all before. And I guess you can develop a degree of detatchment about the sight of naked flesh. (As I write this it occurs to me that this may have some human disadvantages). Of course, different people deal with this in different ways...
So if I went to a porn meet in Manchester & Erin & Fregory were there, I would really be more interested and amused by their presence than in the porn itself. I think so, anyway.
Is it unChristian to talk about a pornmeet? well there is certainly a bit of a frisson there...

I've always heard that bit, too, about visual people liking porn and the average man being more visual than the average woman as an explanation for the huge sales of Playboy vs the puny sales of Playgirl etc.

Sasha - I think the point for the girls would be "having a bit of a laff". Especially if the lingerie were appalling rather than sexy (as I suspect most of it is). Girltalk is fun.

Indeed. Even lingerie sold in "mainstream" stores has to have been designed by men rather than women. The designers should be forced to wear their creations for 24 hours in a mirrored room before trying to market them.

My -erm- fantasy of really great porn would be to have my favorite sexy but main-stream movies on DVD with X-rated out-takes. Perhaps (in my fantasy) this would be down the line when the more
stuff could be done digitally instead of by our modest, decent, main-stream actors.
And that way the sex wouldn't derail the story line, I'd be invested in the characters, and I could play the scenes over and over. Bull Durham or almost any of the James Bond movies come to mind.
Yum!

This thread is worse than primetime (by far). Yeah, I'm pretty disgusted with the others. Yes yes yes, I know, I didn't have to click on the thing, but I was curious, so I did, and there you have it. For a moment I thought, "maybe I'm just a legalist and I should chill out," but I'm gonna have to second-guess myself on that one. I think perhaps it's not actually "my hang-up/problem," but rather, it is the thread that is the problem. That's my feeling, anyway. Mature discussions about sexuality can be great, but what's the value in this? Watching porn can do serious damage-- not to mention what it does to those appearing in it?
I like it when people seriously discuss and engage with sexual issues. I certainly identify with the struggle to stay away from porn-- maybe we could talk about that? But seriously, we don't need to contribute to our society's downward spiral of screwed up sexuality.

Personally I always wait until new electronics come down in price before I buy them. Indeed, I still haven't bought a DVD player or a digital camera.
But once they really perfect vitual reality porn, I shall be first in line at Circuit City to buy one, regardless of price. Then, if I can get liquor and cigarettes delivered, I'll never have to leave the house on weekends.

People usually don't know if they are going to like something until after they've read it. If fact commenting on threads before reading them is usually discouraged; otherwise "commenting" is what this board is all about.

We could film it, and then watch it at the meet.

Lyda, they have something like this in text; it's called 'slash'/'slash fiction'. Do a search with 'slash' and your favourite film/actor and you'll prolly turn something up.

Indeed. IME, it's best to regard everyone as a prude until they have specifically stated otherwise. I get into less trouble that way.
And the only cooking to be done today is in conjunction with the hors d'ouevre platter. Though I have to say I will be torn between waiting for the commercials and the Charmed marathon on TNT today.

I am a prude, but that really isn't the problem I'm having with this thread. Yes, it's easy enough to choose not to read it (or want to know who is participating in it); however, whenever I bring up the screen to show me "Today's active threads"... there it is, usually right near the top, for anyone nearby to see, too. It has taken quite an effort and some time to convince my family that this is a Christian Website ™, and if they see that heading, it's going to take some 'splaining, Lucy.
Just wish there was a way to do this without making the thread titles so explicit. (I'm not even going to discuss the "F**k me" thread.) It has certainly hampered my willingness to post lately.

Lyda,
re: your reply. Guess I was thinking of something more cerebral. Something which intelligently examines trangression, perhaps?
I saw an oddly compelling movie called 'Spider' on video last week that took a really bad case of Oedipus complex as its theme. On first viewing I wasn't so impressed but it's stayed in my head for days - haunting, really. Sexuality is a great theme for movies.
Fact is, part of being human has to do with dealing with our erotic urges - guess that's why some people (even Christians) find relief in porn. I admit the idea of a Christain group meeting to watch porn was quite mindboggling: that's why I bothered to read this thread in the first place -unless I was simply being prurient!
I don't like porn films and wouldn't want to watch one, especially not with people I've never met and with whom I converse about my Christanity on the internet
. Guess it's time to leave this thread to who do.

I think that we are just practising for (or hoping for) a spring re-launch of TnT perhaps?
I would guess that this idea of a porn meet is a joke, which no one seriously expects to happen
.
Apparently some porn companies treat their actors quite well. And I understand there is some "woman friendly porn" out there, which IIRC uses couples in long term relationships with each other and emphasises gentleness and tenderness etc.
However, a lot of porn *is* exploitative, in a variety of ways. Some of the actors may be putting themselves at risk of STDs. Some porn portrays violence or rape; some uses animals or children.
And I guess that most of us, when we think of the appropriate Christian context for sexuality, think of a 1-to-1 committed relationship, with emotional intimacy and caring. Not, usually, involving a camera nor a Tv screen.
But the idea of a "Christian pornmeet" does challenge the bounds of what we see as being acceptably "Christian" behaviour, in some ways similarly to the Ann Summers thread, which seems to have inspired it. I don't find porn necessarily threatening nor horrifying as a concept, and I suspect that people who do may perhaps have some issues around fear and mistrust of the body and sexuality. There is after all a great Christian tradition of that.
And hitting this particular boundary appears to be pretty unrestful, as a bunch of Christians.
So yes, this subject does seem appropriate, very appropriate to me, for Hell...

Uh. Yeah. Okaaay.
dorothea- Musing on the sex lives of film characters is not the be-all and end-all of my sexuality. But I don't see the problem with admitting the fact that it's part of it. I certainly am not dwelling on it.

For interested parties, further to what WD said:
(NB. The link to the faq is reasonably work safe but has the words 'Porn', 'Pornoland', etc in largish font.)
The rest of the site is NOT WORKSAFE, and if pornographic nudity offends you, don't go there.
A faq by fascinating puter geek Pr0n Princess, Asia Carrera which discusses working conditions (eg. HIV, rates of pay, and how women are treated in the industry). I wouldn't consider her an exploited person: she's a woman in control, financially secure, very intelligent and works by choice. But granted, she went into the business initially because of financial need and her bio (NOT WORKSAFE) is a bit sad.

All this talk about how this is the wrong thread to argue our point of view regarding porn is really very confusing to me. If Hell is: quote:
the refuge of the irascible, the contentious and the just plain pissed off. Got a complaint, a rant or a personal argument to settle? Feel free to add it to the uproar – our circles can always accommodate one more malcontent.
Then what's the problem? Those who do see a problem seem very quick to become condescending about it, and the above example isn't the only one. I actually do doubt that everyone on this thread actually saw this as satire from the beginning. I concede that some, or the majority may see it this way. Oddly, if that's what it is, it almost could be said to belong in heaven, the home of "idle creativity and tangents." But of course, it would offend too many people there. Sort of like it does here.

Gosh, I hope I'm not too late to mention that I've always thought Samuel Marchbanks (the legendary curmudgeonly Canadian created by Robertson Davies) deserved a movie, which would, of course, need to include his famed exposition on the art of pedalezza. This art involved the stimulation of table companions with one's feet. He warns that not everyone enjoys this subtle sexual form, and describes an injury he once received from a woman (wielding a silver dinner fork) whose virtue he had underestimated.

I take it no one watched Shaving Ryan's Privates on Channel 5 recently?

Actually, I noticed it advertised and had a wee laugh to myself over earlier gaff but decided not to bother.

So then she probably got less soft, and then softer as decomposition set in, and now that only bones are left, quite softness-free.
... I'm sorry, that was in even worse taste than the rest of this thread.

once ran this huge TinyPlot there involving an evil Lovecraftian thing from another dimension and played six characters simultaneously in a great battle scene there, too; he was The_Dark_One, at least two evil minions, Miriam the Angel, Kurt (Nightcrawler from X-Men), and a partridge in a pear tree

YES! The Warfields were a very distinguished Baltimore family. And the first time she and Ernest had the prince to dinner she served "Chicken Maryland". (And a raspberry souffle for dessert.)

Hopefully puppycat's videos can be used which is even more exciting than photos - but I would expect bits would have to be blurred out.
I can certainly confirm that work's state of the art video conferencing facilities *cough cough* do have video taping capacity. So what is seen through the monitors can be taped. And if I tell everyone at work that it's a meeting of a Christian group no one will walk in and see on screen something they really ought not to see.
Having said that I recall various emails I've received from colleagues, they'd certainly not bat an eyelid

I'm sorry, but that really is what just popped into my head.
Carry on.

still, that is an interesting fun fact, and I should investigate the recipes in question

Surely you have macaroni & cheese over there. American children are raised on it. It's what makes American men strong and fearless and American women beautiful.
Or is it the other way round?
Posted by Ann (# 94) on

Yes, we have macaroni cheese here (for some reason either we leave the '&' out, or you put a gratuitous one in). Do you do the cheese the same way? A white sauce (cornflour, butter, milk, seasoning) with cheese added?
It's a bit more complicated in my household - with one child who won't eat cheese (except pizza), so I have to remember to reserve some of the macaroni for him to have with half a tin of tuna - then the others see it and ask why they can't have tuna as well! And two (and only two) of us like tomato puree added.

I have to ask, what exactly is Velveeta? aside, obviously, given the macaroni & cheese reference, from some form of cheese life force
Posted by Sine Nomine (# 3631) on
:
Ah, Velveeta™. It's not cheese. It's cheese food. Famous for its smooth melting qualities.
The reason Erin was threatening me is it is considered in some circles as a rather red-neck sort of ingredient. Especially large blocks of it.

No need for all that work due to the miracle of Velveeta.

Missed this, the only thing that would piss me off more would be if we were the only two not raptured. We would have to repopulate the earth.

No.
In Plato’s Symposium, the character Aristophanes describes the hermaphrodite as the original condition of the sexes:
quote:
Each of these beings was globular in shape, with rounded back and sides, four arms and four legs, and two faces, both the same, on a cylindrical neck, and one head, with one face on side and one the other, and four ears, and two lots of privates, and all the other parts to match.

Serves you right for going with expensive prostitutes.
In Scunthorpe you can get a shag and still have change from a tenner for your bus fare home.

Dear God, a hybrid between a Pushmi-Pullyu and an Oompa-Loompa.
And, somewhere on the internet, I am sure someone has written porn involving it.
It's a law of physics.
