Yes me too Jim
Thing is i sold the soft to a satellite company I am not able to name and they thought it was "sick!" Which I thought was a bit strong.
Theres plenty htings I shoot that may not be too everyones taste or even my own come to that but when dealing with things that are real you have to be broadminded outside your own scope of interest.
Glad to see opinions reflecting that.
Should porn be all about pretty people on sunkissed beaches? While that is a lovely thought, i think porn should be also about real people too.
The customer has the choice whether to buy into it or not.
I've never received complaints about the scene either

My idea of good porn is watching people being themselves and having fun. If I stumbled on a scene with a disabled girl enjoying sex and I found her attractive and thought the producer was presenting the scene in a positive way, I'd have a wank to it. I'd probably even get off on the fact that she was disabled and I'd have no guilt about that whatsoever. It's all about how a scene is presented, the context. Even if the girl got off on being really submissive -- hair-pulling, name-calling, spanking etc -- I think that'd be fine too, so long as it was made clear at the start of the scene that she wanted to be there and was enjoying the company of the people around her and that when the sex kicked off she was really into it.

Sometimes I watch CBeebies (I have two kids ok) and there is a woman on there who only has one good arm. I think she is very attractive but I do find myself thinking what it must be like to be intimate with her in that, is she conscious of it or are her lovers distracted by it?
Personally I couldnt give a shit shes missing an arm. I'd still love to sort her out
Call me weird. Many have

As a paraplegic for the last 36 years, I would find it refreshing to see someone with a disability being able to enjoy sex in what ever way suits them. I may be a cripple in body, but I am not a cripple in my mind, like some seem to be in this post. Live and let live, no one would make you watch such acts lol.

I would find it very disurbing to see something like that. One always feels sorry for those who are disabled, not in a pitying way, but you always realise that the person is limited in what they can do compared to people who are not classed as disabled and I've never heard of a disabled person yet who, in an ideal world, would not rather they were not that way.
For someone who is paraplegic to become the subject of voyeurism (which is VERY differnt to watching a paraplegic sportman/woman, tv presenter, politican, etc) I find quite disturbing. A person being the wrangler (the director) of two people of who fall into that catagory, being instructed to get into positions and have sex, it be filmed, and people watch the proceedings in a film, is not that dis-similar to the people in charge of proceedings at those Victorian 'funfares' where people would pay to watch folk of a differnt look and disposition (I am using very gentle terminology here) and get their jollys from watching.
It could no way be claimed that the people who would watch paraplegic porn would just be 'watching porn' and it just happens that the people involved were a bit differnt. The people watching would be watching BECAUSE they were differnt and the fact that what is being observed could be regarded as a bit sick and distrurbing would be the thing that would draw them to it.

It depends who it is being made for and why, I think.
If it's being made with a piss taking or freak show vibe then it is completely out of order (and some people will use it that way obviously but it's the intent of the film maker that counts in my book)
If it is being made to show that people who have disabilities have sex too and to allow an encourage people with disabilities to enjoy sex, it can only be a good thing.
It's not my thing at all but just because it isn't, that's not a good reason for not making it or for slagging anyone involved as depraved. It's all about intent for me.
"Ben Dover Does Stumpy" would be completely wrong but a Real Couples thing is fine, imo. In fact it wouldn't completely surprise me if there was a disabled rights group out there somewhere who'd welcome and support an adult and reasonable approach to the subject of disabled sexuality.

Interesting point Max but I cant help but feel maybe you fall into Wheeleys perception of a handicapped mind.
Therefore if its different may also be part of its appeal re: intteracial porn. Surely this would come into the same category by your definition.
To me, it would be people who just happened to be a different colour other than that theyd still be humans to me.
Spome may derive pleasure from the contrast and the fact it is different but I do understand what you are saying as it tkaes me back tothe dmaned if we do damned if we dont analogy i mentioned in an earlier post.
