Grow up. Go watch some porn.

I don't want to watch porn. I find this funny. Why does he show flacid penises, erect penises, handjobs, ejaculation from erect penises, and not a single vulva. Just curious.

Because we see that *beep* all the time, that's why. It's about time the shoe was on the other foot. I love it.

That's really not a good explanation. You also see penises in many Rated R movies. You even saw Ben Affleck,s penis in Gone Girl. It's usual to show penises but not vaginas.

Your more likely to see vaginas then penises.

Did you mean there was no explicit shot, cause there was plenty of vag in this movie.

You obviously don't watch a lot of movies---the reality is, you see a hell of a lot more female nudity in mainstream films than you ever see of male nudity (or a straight-up penis,for that matter, and not even in R-rated movies.) Most of the time, you will only see a penis in a porn film. European filmmakers and actors are way more relaxed and open about showing a penis in films (and more relaxed and open about sex in movies,period.) They don't trip about it or treat it like it's off limits like American filmmakers do.

I DO watch a lot of films.
Do we see more penises that vaginas in mainstream films? NO! lol
Stop making things up.
I can't think of a single film from Hollywood that shows a vagina.
Name me one....

If you want to see male genitalia then just watch adult movies, there are plenty of very excited men to see.

What the hell are you talking about, Super68?? lol
We see vaginas in movies all the time but never penises?
Wow, seems like I've been watching the wrong movies...

Seriously, though no that statement is untrue.

Soooo... ejaculating penis=artsy-hipster Hollywood film and visible vagina (i.e labia, vulva, etc.)=hardcore porn? Huh?? I didn't know that. Thanks for clearing it up. I'm sure all the women out there (especially the feminists) will be relieved to know that, to some extent, vaginas are STILL considered a delicacy on the sexualized "piece-of-meat" menu.

I agree in a sense. While male full frontal are usually ignored, lately they've been all over the place. Lars Von Trier loves to show crazy stuff (Ejaculating Blood) for instance. We've saw Woman Full Frontal for years, BUT, it's never up close, we don't see the lips, and never a woman climaxing. It's just very rare. So I definitely see what you mean.

There are women naked women too, they just have genital hair so you see nothing in the genital area of the women except hair.

reply

[–] CalvinJarrett 9 years ago

That's no excuse, Sam-953-169285. Look at any 70's porno. Those women were had more hair on their genitals than Elektra or Omi, but you still saw their labia minora and clitoruses. They could have spread apart the hair or the actor could have done so to show the audience vulva. The director decidedly did not want to do so (or was forbidden from doing so.) Would have been more egalitarian if he had done so. I agree with the other posters - I don't understand how you can show an ejaculating penis and not show one vaginal lip.

[–] Sam-953-169285 9 years ago

You interpreted what I said incorrectly. Most of what you said is consistent with what I said. Many people like you are too quick to criticize and don't take the time to understand what they are criticizing.

reply

[–] CalvinJarrett 9 years ago

My disagreement with you Sam is a narrow one - I'm only saying that the existence of pubic hair is no excuse not to show labia.

reply

[–] MissMalevolent 9 years ago

Cause it's not a porno.

The big difference in showing the genitalia between the sexes is its more stimulating for a woman to see a penis than a man seeing a vagina.

What I mean is, a man and a woman go out, have a good time and 'do the deed'. In going back to a trusted friend to tell the x rated details, a woman would want to know how big his dick was, length, girth, etc. Two men aren't going to say how did her pussy look like. They'll talk about breasts, ass, how frisky was she. If they talk about her vagina, it's about wetness, smell, depth, etc. Not "how did her box look"

Nonsense - I have buddies that I regaled with accounts of what my partners' vaginas looked like, and I, in turn, demanded similar accounts from them. Labia color, amount of pubic hair, big or small clitorus, how shrouded was the clitorus by the clitoral hood, size of the vaginal opening, was the vagina creamy, were the lips meaty or diminutive. I've talked that way for the entirety of my single years.

No, just inept as a filmaker.
