Do most guys like watching "teen" porn?

[searock]

maybe some guys associate an element of innocence to a younger face.

This is the only thing I don't understand and that I find disturbing of the possible reasons you've listed (thanks btw, even if it's just armchair psychology they make sense to me). I don't think there's anything sexually attractive about "innocence", I don't think young = innocence, I think it's messed up for guys to get off to "innocence" being corrupted, etc...

[searock]

I think for those that specifically want to see 18 - 19 it could be an innocence thing

This is what I don't get: what is the "innocence thing"?

and yes in certain cases, it could be about seeing someone who looks ..underage.. I'm not going to lie and say there aren't men out there like that... but I would argue that those are few and far between.

Thankfully . In this case it would be a "taboo" thing, right? I think it would be a "taboo + innocence thing", whatever the innocence thing is...

age is usually hard to formulate... I bet if you saw a picture of me, you wouldn't be able to tell my age from it, similarly with a lot of others... Its all about visuals.

I'm referring to situations in which guys think/know/believe that the women in the porn video they are watching are teenagers - so in that case, age would be specified.

How so? Different strokes for different folks. I think it's messed up for people to get off on pain, or extreme bondage, but I don't judge. If there wasn't a huge market/demographic that liked porn with "innocent" girls, then there wouldn't be a mainstream genre dedicated to it. I think this is a case where you probably won't get an answer that will completely satisfy you, but throughout the thread there are some decent answers that you can piece together.

I'm not sure if these videos exist, or are that easy to find. I just assume all "teen" videos are people who look younger but are at least 18 or older. The internet is a dirty place, but most mainstream adult sites like PH or RT generally filter their content.

Innocence is kind of a thing where..... I don't know how to explain the appeal, as its not something I tend to find as an attractive trait.
I'd have to say, coming from my best guess on how to describe it, its more of the sense of - almost a as you said, taboo belief - that a girl that looks sweet and cute without much experience in things, wouldn't do anything sexual due to their.. perceived demeanor, and that its more of a lustful thing. Perhaps I'm wrong on the way I'm describing it...


Or maybe it has to do with a domination thing.... finding someone that they believe is impressionable? I'm not saying all the reasons are good reasons, and I'm really just guessing on some of these...

Will it make you feel any better about why they do it? Probably not.

[searock]

I have received lots of satisfying answers to the question "Do you think most men watch teen porn specifically because they have a teen fixation?" - the consensus seems to be "No, not specifically, but most men do stumble upon teen porn and they have no problem watching it because all they care about is that the women in it are attractive to them".

I have only just asked the question "What is "the innocence thing?"", so I cannot possibly have received a satisfying answer (or any kind of answer) yet.

I do doubt a satisfying answer exists, though.

How is it lustful? I realize it's difficult to describe, especially if you don't feel it yourself, but thanks :-).

This I can understand :-).

Doesn't matter - I just want to try to understand.

I think it is the perception of an innocent young girl being taken advantage of on camera and being naive to the world around her. She is in a sense being "broken" by the world, and some guy and a camera are the ones to do it.

The reality is it is all scripted and she has probably had more sexual partners at 19 than most women have in their lifetimes, but you just don't think of it like that when you're watching.

Okay... but how is this sexually appealing? If anything, it's sad...??

To you perhaps, but only because it doesn't work for you. I think this is where the disconnect is, you're trying to understand this, but since your body doesn't get that "feeling" from it, the understand simply isn't present. Remember, what turns you on isn't always something you can explain, it is something that just does.

I don't understand why some people are turned on by extreme fetishes, and if they were to try to explain it, I wouldn't get it because my juices don't flow into those thoughts. This is the same thing that is happening here. You simply can't understand because it doesn't work for you.

Fair enough... I guess I'm trying to understand the innocence fetish in particular because it disturbs me a lot, while other fetishes don't. I mean, with other fetishes I'm like "Meh, doesn't work for me but I can see how it could work for someone else". With this fetish, I'm like "Wow that's sick!! It makes no sense whatsoever, why would someone be turned on by that?!". I wish I could understand it somehow, I think it would make it less disturbing for me.

To me, it just makes me feel like it's a huge injustice, almost as if it were rape, because the girl has no clue what's going on and therefore has no means to stop it from happening. It's just so outrageously WRONG to me, psychologically damaging for the girl, it makes me sick that someone would actually get off to it.

It is only perception, maybe this helps.

If I see one of these videos online, I can fantasize she is young because I know it is all on a stage and everyone is there because they agreed to be (albeit young, stupid decisions probably had a part in it). If it were a video of a "rape" or "coercion", I wouldn't enjoy it at all. Something in my brain (or other body parts) would flip the switch off because there is clearly something wrong with the situation.

They're leading me on a fantasy, so I take it in as they lead it. That is their role as the high quality adult entertainers they are, to take me on that 2-3 minute journey.

I don't understand the turn on by "young", but I can definitely enjoy it, as do many millions of other men. This can be perfectly illustrated with schoolgirl uniforms, you can't go into a sex shop without seeing hundreds of them. They intend to allow your partner to assume the role of a younger person. They're playing into that fantasy as well.

[searock]

So you're saying that even if lots of men enjoy the "innocent girl being corrupted" fantasy, they wouldn't be turned on by an analogous situation in real life (or filmed in a real situation)?

Probably not. Sometimes perceived reality is more enticing than actual reality.

Okay... well I guess that's good to know: it's only appealing as long as it's just a fantasy. I still don't understand it, but it's better than I feared.

IMO I don't think it's sad nor does it bother me, because it has never interfered in anyway to my sex life, dating men or having relationships with men. The male psyche is different than ours. They are driven by testosterone, have a stronger sex drive, they can separate sex from love. The innocence, the untouched naturally excites them because it makes them feel more masculine, powerful, feel dominance. Innocence, being submissive is very feminine and it's a trait that a lot of men find appealing, just like women like men who come off as confident and strong. What we are genetically programmed complete opposites that's why you "don't get it" because it doesn't appeal to you, and you are thinking with a female respective. Women are more on the emotional scale men are on the physical side of the scale. We are different from men. So disagreeing with what come naturally with men is a waste of argument.

Just because men find something appealing isn't going to make them a bunch of sexual deviants....if they did we would have teenage girls being pursued by men in epidemic proportions world wide lol.
