But sadly, loveGIANT, true words.
(I know, I know; of course there are exceptions just as there's some lesbian JAV that's terrible, but on the whole, American porn is to eroticism what McDonald's is to nutrition. And, yes, I do enjoy a burger and fries now and then...but to put it in sailing terms, I want to fill my sails, not just raise the mast).
I think it's more like truly your opinion but I've seen this kind of discussion before on these boards and I have to admit it just baffles me.
I guess there's something inherent in the human character that compels people to say, "I like this and
that is crap." I guess that makes sense in politics or sports where one side or another has to win and another has to lose but in lesbian porn?
GR&B makes the McDonald's comparison so I'll follow that out. Your comment makes me think of someone who lives in a large city which hosts three or four Japanese restaurants and then says, "Japanese restaurants are the best! I only eat at Japanese restaurants! Where do you think I'm going to eat, McDonald's?"
Well, no, but I assure you that there are other places that serve burgers that are pretty good. But more to the point, if you live in a large city, why would you want to have Japanese
every night? Why not some Indian food or Italian or the occasional bagel or Korean, maybe just once in a while?
Why limit your choices?
I guess it's all up to individual taste and it's not for me to judge what anyone else likes. But there are things to like about stuff from Viv Thomas (Is there a more beautiful woman on the planet than Eve Angel?) Abby Winters (Truly amateur girls) or American producers like, yes, Girlfriends Films or Sweetheart Video (To name a few, Shyla Jennings, Jelena Jensen, Ryan Keely, Hayden Winters, Celeste Star and Lily Labeau are performers with few or no tats, real breasts and - what looks like - real attraction to women.)
There's a scene from a video by a studio called Club 59 Girls in which two porn performers (Brooke Lee Adams and Gracie Glam) talk about their relationship and how difficult it can be and Adams starts crying! During the sex scene (They say during the interview, they had been in a fight before they came to film the scene and hadn't talked in a while which is why the experience is so intense, I think.) they
both start crying. It isn't corny, "I wuv you"-stuff, and the difficulties they discuss are so petty and bizarre (For one thing, Adams is married.) that I, for one, believe they're being honest. Ever seen
that level of real in a JAV video? I haven't.
As for JAV, is no one tired of two girls coming at each other with their mouths open so wide they look like a snake about to swallow a large rat and tongues sticking out another 18 inches? Do people outside lesbian JAV
really kiss like that?
I also find
nothing erotic about the r*** stuff (Madonna videos
loves to show the one girl taking another girl against her will and while I have no problem with one girl seducing another one who is at first reluctant, some of their movies actually have r*** in the title.) Not a fan of the tongue up the nose or the girls making sounds like they're being tortured instead of having even the smallest bit of pleasure. I'm sure there are other things about lesbian JAV that are overdone or unappealing to some.
Having said that, just to say that I don't think
anyone makes a perfect product, I
love JAV. I just don't get that so many of my fellow fans, on these boards anyway, feel that they have to love it to the exclusion of anything else.
Again, why limit yourself?
But, as I said, to each his own, I guess....
