How to Watch Porn (And More of It!) – Lessons Learned From An Insider

- Advertisement -

I love to watch porn. One of my favorite things to do is to plan out ten to twelve scenes and enjoy the artful presentation of sexuality all day long. 

You see, porn means a lot to me. I find it to be thought-provoking, athletic, artistic, and very beautiful. 

For me, sex is the pinnacle of the human experience. It’s such a gift: all that fun, joy, and pleasure all rolled together into a passionate dance with your partner! 

And it is incredible how pornstars can take that heightened experience and wield it just as an artist to a paintbrush. Pornstars are able to partner with a wide variety of artists and paint pornographic masterpieces ranging from the abstract to the surreal. 

And often, they’ll pair the visual art with thoughtfully crafted dialogue and story covering a wide range of genres and topics.

Yes, I love to watch loads of porn, and if you’re becoming a serious fan, then I highly recommend spending more time with the art.

But are you seeking the answer to how to watch porn in the same way that I do? If so, read on because I’m about to guide you through this cum-soaked insider account.

Why Do You Watch Porn?

For most, porn is a spontaneous thing – a carnal desire sparked by a moment of lust. They entertain the idea, view a bit of porn, and get on with the day.

Think about it this way. Why are you watching porn? If the answer to that question is to cum, then you’re what I call a goal-oriented porn consumer.

There’s nothing wrong with that. In fact, getting you off is the general idea behind most porn. But it doesn’t usually work like a Pringles can; once you pop, the fun often stops.

That’s good enough for most people because they don’t have a deep interest in adult films. They use it as a tool. But porn connoisseurs, sex geeks, and Gooners are a different breed. We’re here because we love our porn.

Break From Spontaneity

In order to break porn’s spontaneity, we have to change the way we approach the subject. For me, porn time is a priority which is planned in advance. That’s right, I put porn on my calendar, and it makes a huge difference. 

As Seven Habits of Highly Effective People author Stephen Covey writes: “Put first things first.” By scheduling porn time, I effectively put porn first for those hours. It keeps me free of commitments and distractions and dedicates that time to the study of adult film. In this case, porn is not a distraction or procrastination; it’s a priority. Everything else is secondary. 

I also like to microschedule my viewings. Rather than aimlessly bouncing from scene to scene, I like to have a specific set of scenes and movies that I intend to view in each block. That keeps me focused on my studies and actively engaged with the material.

Study Porn

You’ll notice that I used the word study. That’s a big shift in mindset from the average porn consumer. Porn is art. And like a tourist viewing  Liberty Leading the People or Mona Lisa, in The Louvre, most people walk away seeing nothing more than a pretty picture. They miss the context.

Each piece of pornography is a completely unique expression of sexuality. While each artist may share a common set of techniques, I have never seen an identical porn. And the closer you study, the more subtlety you notice. 

Have you ever noticed the way Alina Lopez’s pussy gently gapes right after orgasm? Or the way Asa Akira’s clit asserts itself during penetration? What about the Kimmy Granger cowgirl grind or the Kenna James eye-roll? Have you ever noticed the patterns of cunnilingus techniques that tend to follow in each position? 

Each performer brings their own style to bear, oftentimes influenced directly or indirectly by pornographies past. Inherent in each pornstar is a rich history of sexual tricks and tendencies that can sometimes be traced right down to legendary icons of yesteryear.

Let alone the fact that porn is a subgenre of the art of filmmaking. And porn filmmakers have been keen to bring their passions and influences to the forefront. Through porn, you see the influence of the larger cinematic world, and in cinema, you see the influence of porn. 

There’s a lot of substance and a lot to think about. Whatever your angle, porn is rich in subtlety and is ripe for study.

What If I Cum?

Porn’s primary purpose is to arouse, and the vast majority of porn fans are here to get themselves off. Once that happens, we get that serotonin dump, a wave of calm washes over us, and suddenly, the arousal is gone. Then what happens? You turn off your porn. 

But so what if you cum? I think back to that first question – I’m not watching porn to get off. I’m viewing these films because I enjoy them and because I want to analyze and learn from them.

Further, I’ve scheduled the next few hours to dedicate to my hobby. Why stop? No, just clean up, have a drink of water, and carry on.

Post Orgasmic Porn Is Wonderful

If you’ve never done it, post-orgasmic porn is a wonderful experience. It’s something I discovered when I first began writing in the industry.

Writing reviews, I would often get overexcited and forget that I was actually working and blow my load quickly. But I still had a job to do, and so I persevered. 

The beautiful thing about post-pop porn is that it mitigates arousal bias. Pushing past that “goon state” allows for an objective and rational approach to each pornography. It allows you to see the big-picture, noticing the subtleties and nuance that make porn great. 

How to Watch Porn Backwards

For that reason, I tend to experience porn backward. No, I don’t start at the end and scan backward. I do something very different. I know that porn is almost certain to arouse, so I approach it proactively. I cum first. 

Suppose I’ve scheduled five hours for porn from 0800 to 1300. The first thing I want to do is cum; not because I’m horny, but because I’ve got to approach the day with a level head. If I’m awake early enough, I prefer to start out by fucking my wife. If not, then I typically start with a personal favorite porn scene. I’ll cum as quickly as I can and then take a deep dive into the rest of my porn. 

The same goes for any after-lunch porn blocks. Say I’ve got another four hours scheduled from 1400 to 1800; I may elect to cum one more time before I start. I’ve found that it’s important to hold off until the start of the second block, too.

In this example, if I were to cum before lunch, then I won’t have the same calm mindset going into the second set. In that case, I would have to force myself to cum a third time before diving into set two. It’s a chore, but if you want to be objective, it’s often a necessary step. 

This technique is not for the faint of heart. You’re essentially using your biological ability to cum and orgasm in order to bypass an over-aroused state during your porn studies. It requires a bit of discipline, but that’s where holding yourself accountable to your schedule comes in. Put first things first, and methodically work through your porn. 

Porn Appreciation

Whatever your porn viewing goals or habits might be, try to think about it on a deeper level. Porn is much more than raw fucking. It is an art, lovingly crafted by a team of talented individuals, each bringing their unique history and experience to the table. 

And if you’re one of the countless souls working to create and further the art of porn, thank you for adding color and beauty to this sometimes dark and dreary world.
