"Cream pie for the straight guy" and "catching the gay"The premise behind this film is that straight couples have regular sex, the guy cums inside the woman (the "cream pie" part), and then he licks his own cum out of her pussy. Now, I have to say I'm kind of conflicted about this idea. Part of me thinks it's fabulous. For a start, it's a move away from the ubiquitous facial money shot which could be seen as daring innovation in the adult film industry, even though internal "cream pie" is now considered a fetish in it's own right. Secondly, it's providing us with sex scenes where cunnilingus becomes the final act. A nice change. However, that's only the way it seems on the surface. The focus here is not on cunnilingus or female pleasure at all. The focus is on the fact that the guy is eating his own cum... after it's been inside a woman. For the filmmaker, this act is patently revolting and thus its main aim is to gross out the audience. It's an attempt to introduce an element of shock to jaded, seen-it-all before viewers. How else to describe the reaction of the male reviewer, thus: "...To say this fetish is an 'acquired taste' is somewhat of an understatement. Most guys I know (including yours truly) would never dream of trying this – although I’ve met more than a few women who actually think it’s very erotic." I don't doubt that some women will. For them, it might be seen as an act of acceptance by the man, and a willingness to give her pleasure even after the guy has cum. Or they just might even enjoy the S&M power relationships implied. But this film is not designed for women. If it were, the post coital cunnilingus would be to give her an orgasm, not to simply help her clean up and avoid creating the wet spot. Actually, perhaps this film isn't really designed for men either. I find myself wondering if it's mainly created for sixteen year old boys (or men with a similar mental age) who can only get off if they feel the sex is somehow "extreme" or "gross", which is the point here. There is a sillier element to all this, though. It's the idea that a man licking his own cum out of a woman is somehow "gay". Guh??? Let me quote the reviewer again: "I suppose some of the aversion to it comes from the homosexual implications, but as performer Mark Davis states in his first scene with Denice Kiarskov when she asks him if he likes it, Mark simply replies 'It’s mine…of course I like it.'" and again here: "Cream Pie For The Straight Guy 2 obviously isn’t going to appeal to every adult viewer…especially those who think they might 'catch the gay' from watching a guy lick his own cum out of another girl. What the...? OK... since when did a man tasting his own cum become a gay act? Does this mean that a man masturbating is also a gay act because... gasp... HE'S TOUCHING A PENIS!!! And how the fuck is a VIEWER of this going to become gay? One glimpse of a guy eating his own cum - even out of a woman - will instantly alter his genetic makeup and make him start to hanker after anal sex with the next available bear he meets? I just found myself flabbergasted not just at the rampant homophobia of these statements but at the extreme stupidity of them. I shouldn't be surprised though. It's typical of the official homophobia exhibited by mainstream straight porn. Adult movie makers go out of their way not to show too much male flesh in case their poor sensitive straight male viewers are accidentally converted to the dark side. The focus must always be on the woman. And a woman is the ONLY suitable receptacle for sperm. She is the only one who can injest it, and and anything outside those boundaries is obviously far too queer and must be avoided at all costs. Insane. One other thing. It's kind of amusing how our male reviewer finds the idea of a guy licking up his own cum as unsavoury, but still eagerly describes the fact that the first scene contains several anal sex scenes, with a number of ass-to-mouth transfers going on. If I may turn his quote around: Most women I know (including yours truly) would never dream of trying this – although I’ve it seems more than a few men in adult filmmaking actually think it’s very erotic...
