One of my favorite masturbation questions to pose among friends and hear everyone's answer is: If you are old enough to have started masturbating before porn was widely accessible online (or even if you're younger and just weren't into porn for whatever reason) what were your favorite movies to jerk off to? Let's just say I had a solid collection of VHS tapes that were kept conspicuously fast-fowarded to particular scenes. My favorites were: 1) The Dreamers (That movie is just porn parading as an art film so, I mean, pick any scene at random, honestly.) 2) The sex scene between Faye Dunaway and Bill Holden in Network where she cums super fast. 3) Naomi Watt's masturbation scene in Mullholland Drive. 4) The scene in The Mexican where (was it Julia Roberts???) pees on a toilet next to Brad Pitt. I realize those are all from the 2000s except for Network. But I just wasn't into porn until a few years ago. In the '90s, when internet porn just seemed silly and the bandwidth for data made everything blurry and load slowly, I didn't have favorite movie scenes I jerked off to again and again. So much as I would do it to any random sex. nudity, bathing suit scene in whatever movie I happened to be renting at the moment. What I did use over and over were little fleeting shots of something arousing I'd recorded off of TV using our VCR. I remember a big fave were three episodes of FRIENDS with Courtney Cox or Jennifer Aniston getting out of the shower with the camera angle carefully blocked. Or in bikinis. Or starting to get undressed and maybe getting to see the side of a bra just before the scene cutaway. And, of course, a lot of music videos.
Way back when ...Liquor Stores and Bodega would bundle up their old Porn Magazines each month when the ygo the new issues. hey would throw them out back of the store to be sent to the paper recycling plant. My friends and I would track the date when eh clerk would oss the magazines, then go raid the bundle or what we wanted.
I came from the same era. My Oldest sister was married. My Brother in Law had a collection of Playboy and some more explicit magazines. They were also into watching porn, and had a collection of VHS movies. I would go to their place when they were at work and watch them. I was around 14 so I would have multiple loads pumped out in a viewing. I would always put everything back exactly as I found it. They never did find out.
Had some playboys, but mostly Penthouse, Oui, Swank, Screw, Hustler, High Society, Hog Tied, Leather & Lace, and Gent
Baywatch, page 3 girls, my best mates dad's porno tapes, Kylie Minogue and Britney Spears videos .. list goes on.
I love the Dreamers. I saw it when it first came out and I immediately fell in love with Eva Green. Definitely some sexy scenes. As far as your question, I probably first started masturbating as a teen to normal magazines and sexy newspaper ads. Just tame stuff like women in sexy outfits/shoes. It didn't take much to get me horny back then. Then I guess I started buying porn mags and VHS tapes. The internet was definitely a game-changer.
My evolution into porn was pretty slow. I started in high school with the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition (pretty sad, I know). I eventually started buying some Playboys. When I moved out on my own, I got a Playboy subscription. I was getting hot naked women delivered to me EVERY month. I thought that life couldn't get any better. For some reason, I never built up a video collection. But, once I got online, an entire porn world opened up. I'm now addicted and I always find new clips, features and stars (there is a never ending supply of new talent).
I started with magazines that had women wearing bikinis, bra & panties also my moms romance mags and then eventually discovered my dad's porn mags penthouse, hustler and foreign porn mags, I had a great time.
I never wanted to videos. I would occasionally use soft porn mags ( hard core was hard to come by in the 70s here in the uk) but my main source was erotic books. Nancy Fridays books, My Secret Garden etc are a favourites followed by Victorian erotica such as The Romance of Lust or Evaline.
I would swipe my father's dirty books and jerk off while reading them. The Sears catalog was also good jerk off material. One of my friends would swipe his father's 8mm porno films and projector and we wouldn't just masturbate to what we were seeing - it would get us having sex with each other. Growing into adulthood, there was always the magazines like Playboy which I really did read for the articles but by this time, I was too busy getting laid to be reading the magazines to get myself off. Even when internet porn came along, eh, I really didn't need it to get myself off since I had a ton of memories of actual sex stored in my head.
My grade two teacher had big tits and they were always trying to bust out of the button up blouses that she wore. I waited for months for the button between them to bust but it never did. I jerked to them a lot. I also used magazines and the Sears and Eatons catalogues. And then there are the memories of my first time with a girl and the awakening that she showed me that I'll never forget. I was thirteen and she was fifteen.
As a teen in the 70s, I discovered a used-book store in town which sold old issues of magazines, including Playboy and Penthouse. Over time, I amassed a large collection of both titles, all neatly stacked in my bedroom closet. My parents knew about this archive; some issues in it even came from copies of Playboy laying around the house (no doubt 'for the articles' as a joke of the era went). That library of masturbation material made me popular with my teenage male friends. It says something about that era that the proprietor of a bookstore would sell an obvious minor erotic material. If one could ask that middle-aged couple now, I imagine they might say something like, "Boys will be boys." And my parents thought those publications were basically harmless (by today's standards, they were almost comically tame). And I did in fact read many of the articles!
