You should tell them and watch the porn together. Just saying.

I would think watching porn with friends would be weird. Is this just me? Is watching porn together a common activity for people?

That was my thought as well. That would be... way too weird for me to do. But then maybe I'm just a repressed weirdo or something.

Back when I was 14 my bff and I used to watch porn together. And when we had computer class, the guys would get together and watch porn. Of course, we'd giggle like idiots because "lolpenis" and stuff. So I'd say it's like a weird bonding experience? Nowdays we just make fun of it because some stuff is so damn raunchy, but it's also a sign that we are pretty comfortable with each other to talk about those kind of things.

eta: And now reading the above comment makes me feel like some sort of mind corrupting deviant.

eta#2: And the more I read my comment, the more I think "wow, I just admitted to watching porn when I was younger in public." Good going, self.

It comes up sometimes in fic, but that might be one of those "it comes up sometimes in porn!" justifications, i.e., not real life.

The closest I get is sharing a link with someone and then talking about how hot it was afterwards.

This is what I assumed paola meant. Oops.

If people want to watch porn together I say good for them!

I could never; I'd be hiding my face behind my hands in embarrassment.

Depends on the motivation, I guess? My friends and I have watched porn together for the lolz, but if you're watching it to actively get off on it, that might be a little awkward unless you and your friends are exceptionally chill about that sort of thing.

Regardless, I'm not sure this would help the OP, anyway - their problem has to do with seeing their porn characters in a non-porn context. Even if their friends knew about it and watched with them, there's still a good chance that they'll still try to get OP to watch the canon.

with online friends it's been no big deal just because i met so many of them through sex-oriented fandoms in the first place

it's not like we cyber each other or anything, and a lot of the time we're so desensitized to it that it's like watching anything else

...unless you're watching the porn to laugh at it, it's...really really awkward to watch it together - particularly if you're watching it because you want to fap to it [either then or later]. I mean...at least for me that would be a complete turn off.

Well yeah... Wait, shit. Maybe I should have explained myself and added that we did watch the porn for lulz. God, it's like I'm burying myself into a hole the more I talk.

I'm not really one to fap to porn, but I watch it with friends because it's ridiculously cheesy. Also there are some honest to God humorous porn out there which are pretty funny. Like that Family Guy porn parody.

Hey, it's okay. Don't worry. If you did fap to porn, that would be okay, and the fact that you don't is also okay. It's just porn, it's not like you were eating babies. =)

(Incidentally, reading erotic stories aloud - bad but not horrific ones for preference; funny voices optional - can be a fun group activity.)

But Red's not even from the anime! </missing the point>

So if you know the character you can't look at porn involving them? Just wondering if I understood the secret. That sounds frustrating. :( Still, maybe it doesn't bother you and you can't help what you like either. I bet your friends would understand but if you don't want to mention it that's fine.

I have the opposite problem! I got into things like Magi and Tales so I wouldn't feel bad for looking at porn of it. I mean seriously Flynn is damn handsome gosh.

Eh, you just value a different type of entertainment.

I sort of feel this way too. I read really ooc and fetish-heavy femslash all over ao3 for like a million fandoms, because I know if I read it for my own fandoms I'd be irked by how ooc it was. So then I never want to get into whatever fandom it is because I'll always remember reading a fic full of weird kinks about that character.

Porn is entertainment. You should tell them to watch this new porn that came out, and see how they respond.

For me it depends on the fandom of the characters involved. Some fandoms I can totally get into the pronz, and some fandoms it just creeps me out, and the distinctions are usually totally arbitrary.

So, not sure I am interpreting this right but basically you don't want to see a familiar character in your hentai? Perhaps you could look at the character designs for a show before you watch it then, since while anime does have many lookalike characters, it's not really that common. Particularly if you are watching something that was made with a higher budget, since on a whole hentai isn't.

This is, of course, assuming that the problem of encountering a lookalike is the only reason you aren't watching anime with your friends.

Porn. The Internet is For it....

Maybe just watch standalone hentai instead? That way you don't have to worry about seeing characters you know.

Alternatively, I know a lot of hentai sites/4chan threads are grouped by show/character, so you can just choose the ones you don't know.
