There’s no doubt about it, the vast majority of porn is consumed by ourselves these days. Gone are the days when we gathered in x-rated movie theaters. These were actually in some cases a source of free sex, as horny women and swingers couples would often actually gather in these darkened places to exchange erotic thrills with strangers and other people in the lifestyle. Since the invention of home video and then the rise of the Internet, these days have faded and now we mostly consume erotic media as a accompaniment to solitary thrills.
But that doesn’t mean that adult video has to drive couples apart. There’s nothing which says it can’t actually bring them together. If both are enjoying it to accompany their solo masturbation they can still use it as a source of fantasies and shared thrills, exchanging favorite scenes, positions, or sexual set ups when next they meet in person for intimate interactions. Of course it’s just one step from there to watching it together. Couples may even develop a mutual attraction to a favorite porn star, seeking out more of his or her videos to enjoy together. Couples can obviously masturbate together, perhaps watching each other or using hands and other parts to help the other one reach orgasm. Some lovers also enjoy using porn as a sound track to their own fucking, as the sounds of their passion join with those of the recorded lovers on the screen into one crescendo of loud orgasmic bliss.
Of course from there it may only be a short jump to making amateur videos for the enjoyment of the fuck friends together. It’s important to go into this with a little bit of caution as any recorded sexual encounters can make their way potentially onto the Internet where one will lose control of them. Some partners choose to erase their films after they watch them where as others will have agreements over who keeps control of the films for safety or agreements to erase on breakup.
