Why Do Straight Women Like to Watch Lesbian Porn?

Pornhub has already confirmed it. According to a survey they conducted, lesbian porn is the most popular category for the female audience. I want to say I’m shocked but I’m really not. The temptation to watch two beautiful women being hot and heavy with each other can be hard to resist. What’s interesting to note though is that women are 151 percent more likely to search up lesbian porn than men. With the popular belief that men are big on watching girl-to-girl action, it comes as a bit of a surprise that it’s actually the women who are getting off to lesbian porn.

Although the data doesn’t categorize the gender orientation of the women included in the survey—whether they’re gay, bisexual or straight—the staggeringly high number hints that there’s a good chance that heterosexual females are also clicking on it. But what is it with lesbian porn that turns on even the straightest of women?

Before we get to that, let’s first make one thing clear. Just because you flick your bean to lesbian porn, that doesn’t necessarily mean you’re gay per se. Well, you can be sexually interested in women and enjoy lesbian porn, and that’s totally fine. But for some, it’s a bit more complicated than that. They can be into it because it’s their fantasy. It’s not that they want to do it with someone of the same sex. But with lesbian porn, they can fantasize about themselves getting it as good as the porn star is getting it.

Now that we got that out of the way, let’s get on the fun part. If you’re a straight woman, and you enjoy lesbian porn, here’re a few reasons that can explain that.

It’s all about female pleasure

A stark contrast between straight and lesbian porn is that straight porn is more focused on male pleasure while lesbian porn is all about female pleasure. Straight porn usually shows the good old-fashioned hard and fast humping. It can sometimes be too aggressive to watch with the guy being the dominant one in the bedroom. And the porn vid ends with the guy shooting his load off. While it can be hot, it doesn’t really hit that delicious spot for most females.

Watching a girl give a guy a blow job for 20 minutes straight can get boring pretty quickly if you’re a woman. Maybe the first few minutes can be arousing but if it’s too long, it just looks like a lot of hard work for the girl’s jaw.

In lesbian porn, the sexual act involves lots of clitoral stimulations—eating her out, scissoring, tribbing (a sex act where both ladies rub their vulvas against each other), use of sex toys—and also breast worship. There are more passion and sensuality in lesbian porn that seems to be missing in heterosexual porn. Lesbian porn also doesn’t end with just a single orgasm. Usually, the porn stars reach O again and again. It actually looks like they’re getting it better each time.

Women are more willing to explore their sexuality

Society is more accepting when it comes to the idea of a woman playing around with sex with another woman than with men being with other men. Lesbians are still dealing with discrimination even in this time and age but we have to admit that when a woman sleeps with another woman, it can be seen as something that’s sexy. But when a man sleeps with another man, society can get dangerously judgmental and sees it as strange behavior.

Women are also more likely to get turned on by a wider range of things according to a study. It’s been revealed that a woman’s vulva responds and gets aroused similarly, regardless of the type of porn showed and sexual orientation of the female.

Female porn stars are more pleasing to look at than male porn stars

A lesbian porn video usually casts two attractive ladies. They got big boobs, slender legs, curvaceous bodies, and big asses. They’re definitely more pleasing to look at than male porn stars who often look like they haven’t shaved in a while and the only saving grace they have is that they got a ginormous dick. Some straight porn vids don’t even bother showing the face of the man. It’s as if the girl is being humped by a faceless guy. It’s really disconcerting for a female. Women like to see sex as something that’s not just mechanical but also an emotional act. We want to see faces because we want to see facial expressions. And a pretty face makes a pretty facial expression. It’s a big turn on to watch someone roll their eyes at the back of their head or bite their lips as they stifle their orgasm.

We want to watch other girls have an orgasm(and wish it was us)

Alright, this one has something to do with what we’ve mentioned before. It’s about fantasizing that the lead in the lesbian porn video was us and we’re getting our rocks off as hard as she’s getting it. When it comes to sexual fantasies, we can enjoy it for what it is online but it doesn’t mean we want to do it in real life. So while you may enjoy watching a girl scream her orgasms as she gets tongue fucked and fisted by another girl on your screen, it doesn’t necessarily equate that you’re ready to go to the other side. It can just mean that you want a skilled partner who can give you good sex.

Takeaway

We all got different tastes when it comes to porn. If you’re a straight woman and lesbian porn is something that gets your rocks off, then indulge in it. It’s totally normal for you to watch a category of porn that caters to your needs.
