Porn Question of My Own

Since DH and I have discovered the joys of downloading, we've been downloading various songs and the likes. Well, both of us were to shy to go to the video store and rent porn. He'd just stand around and scratch his head..And, I...Well, I stood with my back to the room and my face in the door, laughing from embarassment.
BUT, now that we can download, I started to download porn for us. But, I stopped b/c of all the filth I was finding..That, and I didn't know what to download for him. I downloaded just about everything. So, yesterday he asked me what I stopped for and I told him it was because I wasn't sure of his porn tastes. He never really watched it, and his ex-wife was horrified at the idea of watching it with him. I'd like to watch it with him, but I'm not sure what he means by something. He said to answer my question, he likes classy porn. At first I thought he said classic porn. Seems to make sense considering he has a classic car, a record player, an 8 track player, an Atari, and a Nintendo. Classic porn for the classic guy. BUT, he likes classy porn.
My question--

WHAT IS CLASSY PORN?

he's prolly not into nasty crap out there.
He probably likes nice lighting, nice bodies, good looks men/women, lingere, themed porn w/ a story line.

I suggest VIVID Entertainment... if you're too embarrassed to go into a video store to rent...why don't you buy some movies online??? You'll be really good deals online too!

That's how my DH and I obrained our collection. And guess what... you know FRY's Electronics... they have ADULT Movie Section too... I bet you didn't know that! ;-)

I know that the old saying says something like "You can't buy class", but that's likely to be one of the biggest factors to look for. High productions costs mean good sets and locations, possibly shot on film rather than with digital cameras, good costumes and probably an actual plot of some kind, rather than hardcore all-out pounding action! The sex is likely to be more realistic too. Avoid anything with women swinging from the chandaliers.

goodvibes.com has a video/DVD section and they have some reviews. Look for the movies they reccomend for couples. That'll give you and idea of some of the "better" movies that are around.

Yep, that's my definition too. Avoid videos with wobbly sets and tacky music. Generally speaking, when purchasing videos, you get what you pay for. Those with higher production costs do sell for more - but they're worth it. Nothing less sexy than having DW convulsing in laughter at the poor production. And, yes, I've done that.

Oh, and in better quality ones, the scars from boob jobs are more likely to be hidden. Yeah, sure they still look like they're fake, but at least we're spared seeing the damage. I remember one tacky video where everytime she layed back, there were these hideous scars under her boobs. ROTFL

Based on my own experiences, I would recommend movies directed by Frank Thring.

Oh yeah. I can agree with that. As if over-inflated breasts on their own weren't bad enough, seeing the scars is worse. I can't stand overinflated breasts and I even hate seeing the fine scars around the areola. I definitely prefer more "realistic" bodies and vaguely realistic sex. Of course I know that they're acting and that its all fake, but I just don't see the attraction of blatantly fake bodies with scars performing circus acts.

Is there such a thing as "classy porn?" Kind of hard to look "classy" while getting a faceful of cum or with a mouthful of manmeat. LOL!

And if you actually go so far as to have an actual PLOT and developed characters, then it's become women's porn, hasn't it?

I often laugh when I read posters who write "I'm not unattractive....." and then go on to discuss their implants as being a selling factor in their looks. Another poster told a board that everyone looks at her now that she's got implants. Reminded me of being at the beach last summer....DH and I couldn't stop staring at these amazingly fake boobs. Honestly, it was really odd - she had the body of a 22 year old but her face was significantly older. Shudder.

OK. Enough of my bitching about fake boobs and plastic surgery.

Speaking of "realism", I recently saw a video where one of the women had some pubic hair! The whole bald thing becomes so passe when ALL the porn stars do it....yeah, yeah, same ol same ol. And then you see someone who dares to be different and it's a lovely surprise. I have to admit to it being quite a turn on ;-) A little like the occaisional model who has protruding labia. A change from the norm is so nice.

Actually you *may* want to check the "classics" section of the video shelf if there is one. The 80's stuff when they still shot mostly on film tried for a little more plotline than the shelf-fillers they pump out lately. I've seen others in this thread suggest Vivid videos, which tend the same way. You may also want to look for stuff by Michael Ninn, though his movies tend to have lots of women and little M/F action. Sounds like he's looking for attractive women, some sort of plotline, something that looks like it wasn't shot in a motel room, and less "extreme" material than is typical lately. Good luck.

A mouth full of manmeat? Why Kat! You sound positively naughty! *LOL*

I guess a good plot and ok acting would make it a woman's porn movie rather than the outrageously fake breasts, the over-emphasized orgasm, and the "Oh yeah..Oh yeah..Oh yeah..GIVE IT TO ME!" cries that make up a man's porn video..

Of course..I have been known to use the "Oh yeah.." line with DH..But, it wasn't a fake orgasm.

Thanks to everyone else. I will look those up with my DH. After all, it is his money! hehe

Awe yeah, Vivid entertainment. There is so much porn out there...nasty and trashy. Of all that I have seen Vivid is the way to go. It's the classiest (if there is such a thing) porn and has the hottest guys and girls with some sort of story line to it. It's very sexy and I highly recommend it. I think I might have to get me some of that tonight!
By the way this is coming from a girl who hated porn and thought it was cheesy and nasty UNTIL I discovered Vivid! Awesome!
