well, I just have to weigh in here. Degrading is in the mind of the beholder - we allow ourselves to be degraded. It can't be accomplished by the actor alone; you have to agree that they've taken your power away. I myself am all up for a facial from my boyfriend - for the record this is the first time in history that I've thought of or wanted this particular sex act. It has nothing to do with wanting to be degraded or humiliated.

Maybe 'exploring the power dynamic' comes closer, though in my view, the woman has far more power in that scene that the guy - to let a guy come on your face is a pretty ultimate act of cock acceptance. To swallow come or let it be spread on your face or body is another powerful act of cock acceptance.For a woman to totally & completely accept (with enjoyment and enthusiasm) the cock and its byproducts is, for many men, a total and complete acceptance of themselves.

Many men do not feel they can be their real sexual selves with women, especially women they love - they fear being judged as crude, too horny, not faithful enough, etc.... so I see the power in the act very much on the woman's side.

Ummm, so, what if you go down on a chick and she squirts all over you...not all women squirt so it indicates a ceratin level of arousal. I'm going to suggest that if a woman hits a certain level of arousal, just about anything goes...cocaine helps all that too, so maybe I've just been fucking really dirty girls. Nice girls don't like cum, okay, we know

on the face not so much. a request by the gentleman just proves he watches a lot of the kind of porn I don't go for- just like slapping the v with your dick, who the hell came up with that???-
although, I like someone coming on my breasts. Why's that? Wait, I got it: If you and the gentleman are having boobie sex, that's where the semen goes naturally. But if I'm giving you a blowjob, your cock is in my mouth, so that's where the semen goes. Pulling it out to splosh around just seems a bit showy. Same for the v.

Yeah, what about not on the face but on the chest. I had one girlfriend who couldn't get enough of this. She liked it more than I did.

Most of my past boyfriends have known me as the girl that is up for pretty much anything. They suggest it, I'm up for it. Given that, I suggested the whole facial thing to most of them. Not because I particularly enjoy it, but because it seems so prevalent in porn. Was curious as to whether men actually enjoy it or not.

Every single one of them, and trust me there were alot of them (60+) hence why I'm signing this anonymously, said something along the lines of, "I'd much rather cum in your mouth and have you swallow it.

I suppose what it comes down to with the facial is that at the end, it's really just a handjob with a target.

Well first of all I've gotten pretty good at tantric sex so usually when I orgasm it's without ejaculating. But then, maybe one out of ten I let it go and ejaculate. I've noticed when I do this it's a big turn on for my girlfriend to either have me come on her chest or the small of her back if we're in that position. Or, she likes to swallow it. Shooting on a woman's face seems so humiliating. It's sort of something you'd do to someone you really don't care about or want to degrade her.
I don't find it all that erotic in porn either. Usually they're shooting it in her eyes or up her nose. It just seems like they're trying to prove to you they're actually coming. Who cares. I find it often ruins a lot of good hot erotica.
