the facial comeshot poll

by admin on May 5, 2008

Our burning question over at Fleshbot right now, thanks to my pals Em and Lo who really mean well, they do:

The Facial Money Shot: Yes or No? Yes, there’s a video, yes, there’s a poll — which I encourage you to click — but the real fun is in the comments. Definitely worth a look!

I agree that facials depend on the context, and they could be more erotic if it wasn’t the ‘predictable ending’ for every porn scene. I’m never like, watching porn and thinking, ‘I wonder how this sex scene is going to end?’

3 Brad Elliott May 6, 2008 at 9:39 pm: As long as all participants are willing and respectful what’s the difference?

I guess I’m thinking more about everyday people in their homes vs. on the set of the newest Bukkake film.

I have been with women that were totally into it while others were not. One woman thought cum was gross but loved to engage in watersports(face and mouth.)

There are too many amateur facial videos on the web to make me believe that only a very small percentage of woman like receiving facials. Does that mean every video is real? No. But they are too many with bad lighting, and horrible sound to warrant a conspiracy by pornographers to make amateur looking porn.

What about all the people that love facials but would never tape themselves and post it on the web? What about the people who would never admit it in public but can’t go more than a day without a spoonful?
4 The IT Nerd May 6, 2008 at 2:22 pm: I think it depends on how the facial is done. If it’s Bukkake style or it’s something that’s out of “10 Man Cum Slam” then I’d say no. It has to fit the overall scene of the movie rather than just be a stand alone plot device or “freak show.”
5 B.E. Earl May 6, 2008 at 8:12 am: The real questions is “why aren’t more women reading Fleshbot?”

Or participating in the polls, at least. Well over 90% of the participants were male. Tsk tsk.

Thanks for such a fine public service!

It’s my morning too.
8 quehanna May 6, 2008 at 5:23 am: They didn’t ask many men; one I think.

Personally I think ‘money shots’ are incredibly disrespectful.
