Wouldn't you rather have a nice cup of tea?

Q: When watching porn videos online, how long do you stay with a single scene before searching for something else? Is there anyone who really watches these 40-50 minute marathon sessions and is actually engaged with what's happening the entire time?

A: Maybe it's ADHD, but I get bored pretty quickly of one couple fucking on my computer screen. If there's a seductive element that's handled well, then I'm usually into that, but once the pair (or threesome) start getting their clothes off and getting it on, I find I have a limited attention span, and I rarely get far past the first penetrations before I'm looking for something else. I can personally go longer, but optimally, I think porn scenes should be about 6-8 minutes in length. More than that seems like a waste of time.

Don't believe everything that you read.

I enjoy watching them with my wife. Position re-enactments can be fun, sometimes difficult, and sometimes like 'what the fuck?'

But, yeah, it really takes patience to sit and watch an entire scene, unless you're like tied to a chair or something and have no other option... I've been told.

I prefer 10-20 minutes. Less than that and there isn't enough buildup (foreplay, undressing, maybe establishing a bit of a narrative) for me. Do agree that 50 minutes in a single scene is too much (I would squeeze 2-3 scenes out of that), just also feel that under 10 may not give me enough of what turn my crank.

10 - 15 minutes is fine. The oral gets way too long. Sometimes I'm bored with it before the fuck begins. I used to think that there was no way a man can last so long. Then of course, they edit 2 or 3 shoots to get one long session on film. Then later in our sex life, some of our fuck could go on for an hour or more. It's way more fun being in the long sex than watching it!

I am fairly new to looking at porn and most of it is really rather dull, following certain formulas that I presume speak to the male libido. However, I have begun to discover lesbian porn. Perhaps this is because I am growing to realize that I am sexually attracted to women as well as men. I am not sure what lesbian sex scenes do for men, but for me they could keep on kissing for hours and hours -- that is a huge turn on for me.

I think this right.

I've played scenes that are longer. It's sometimes nice to hear the sounds of sex while I'm doing something I hate, like vacuuming.

I agree, if the scene is hot, 15 minutes is about all before I want to see other people.

Considering that most porn is pretty awful nowadays, I usually stick with something for about five minutes or so. I mean, back in the day when porn used to have cheesy acting and stupid storylines, there was a "porn formula" and most sex scenes never lasted longer than fifteen minutes or so because the people that made them were flilmmakers and knew that the average attention span wasn't that long.

But the average porn film on Pornhub or wherever isn't made by filmmakers anymore, it's just some dude with a handheld camera or something that's mounted nearby and they just go at it with no regard to how boring their fucking is. All they're interested in is the run-time.
