Eyes wide open

The poll that had been running for the past three weeks on the Blog asked, “In XXX photo sets and videos, do you want the model to look at the camera?” The No. 1 answer: “Yes, always” with 44%, followed by “Occasionally” with 35%. The remaining 21% were split just about evenly between “Only when she’s giving a blow job,” “Only when she’s fucking” and “No, never.”

This was posed as a simple yes or no question in the members area of SCORELAND, and 63% said yes, 16% said no and 21% said they didn’t have a preference either way. Elliot James discussed this issue in a recent Blog, so we don’t have to analyze it once again. I know that I like when a model looks at the camera when she’s sucking cock or fucking, not because I think she’s looking at me but because I always interpret her eyes-wide-open as either 1. “I’m totally unabashed about this” or 2. “Can you believe I’m doing this?” I knon, there’s a thin line between those two interpretations, but they both work for me.

For me, the most interesting thing about the poll results is the 44% who answered occasionally. Okay, when? Does occasionally mean more often than not or less often than more?

I ask these questions because feedback is the only way for us to give you what you want. If it was up to me, the girls would have their eyes open all the time and would be saying hello to all their friends and family back home. But, as I pointed out once before, it’s not all about me.

Oh, and one more thing. Make that two more things: XXX photos: Eyes open or shut? XXX videos: Eyes open or shut?

No, not you. The model!

We can read your mind, but only if we ask you what you’re thinking

The polls continue to get a lot of action on the Blog, and, as usual, they reveal a lot about Blog readers. Let’s start from the top with the poll currently running:

 

"Look at me when you're fucking, Kali!"

"Look at me when you're fucking, Kali!"

In XXX photo sets and videos, do you want the model to look at the camera? “Yes, always” is leading with 46%, but occasionally is not far behind at 35%. Only 8% prefer to be totally voyeuristic, answering, “No, never.”

And the rest of the polls that have run since the last time we published a Blog poll roundup:

Would you ever ask your girlfriend or wife to get her breasts enlarged? A majority, 57%, said, “No. I love her just the way she is,” which is very sweet. Very nice. But I want to hear from the 13% who said, “Yes, I asked, and she did it.”
Anna Loren posed for SCORELAND. Her sister, Autumn, posed for NaughtyMag.com. Have you ever had sex with two sisters? Not surprisingly, a majority said, “No, but I’d like to,” but do you want to know who I want to hear from? The 12% who said, “Yes, and at the same time!” and the 15% who said, “Yes, but not at the same time.” And I definitely want to hear from the 9% who said, “Two sisters? Make that three sisters!” Really! At the same time? How’d that come about? Details, please!
 
"Thank you for signing this bra, Cindy. Now, if you don't mind, I'm going to shoot my load into it."

"Thank you for signing this bra, Cindy. Now, if you don't mind, I'm going to shoot my load into it."

If you won your favorite big-boobed model’s bra in a contest, what would you do with it? No majority decision here, but 36% said they’d find a girl who could fit into it. Another 24% said, “Frame it and hang it prominently” while only 23% said, “Use it either to jack or as a cum receptacle,” which is what I’d do with it, TMI.

Which is your favorite way to see a busty girl modeling her tits? The winner: “Standing, boobs hanging freely” with 32%. That’s really getting back to basics; in a photo like that, a girl really shows what she’s packing.
 
"Please, stop, Taylor! That dildo is making me jealous!"

"Please, stop, Taylor! That dildo is making me jealous!"

You’re with your favorite SCORE or Voluptuous Girl. You can either fuck her or have a conversation with her, but not both. Which would it be? Not surprisingly, 58% said they’d fuck her and only 12% said they’d talk to her? And what did the other 30% say? “This is the stupidest poll I’ve ever seen!”Maybe so, but it got a very good response.

Who is your favorite “Treasure Chests of the D.R.” girl? This was about a special we ran earlier in the year featuring Kristina Milan, Miosotis and Vanessa Del, all bra-busting naturals from the Dominican Republic. Kristina Milan, a milker, got the win with 50%.
Do you like to see big-titted girls using dildos in still photos? Yeah, you do, according to 49% while 26% said, “Toy or no toy, it doesn’t make a difference.”
Should the girl be wearing sexy high heels in a XXX pictorial? The “yes” people won out here with 46% saying, “Yes, but she can take them off when the fucking starts” and 34% saying, “Yes, all the time.”

The eyes have it

Back in “Scorecard” #284 on SCORELAND, we published an email about the topic of girls looking at the camera during a XXX scene with a guy. L.D.R.’s basic gripe was, “Your women have the stuff that dream dates are made of. The first photos of your pictorials are tops. The seduction, if you will. Then you blow it. When every shot has the girl looking into the camera while the stud has his way with her, it makes us feel like losers. That stud represents us. When the girl looks at the stud, she is looking at us, and for that moment in time, she becomes our girlfriend, and that is what makes us want to return to The SCORE Group! Take this as you wish.”

L.D.R.’s letter didn’t generate much response, either point or counterpoint. In plays or movies, when someone looks at the unseen viewer, acknowledging his presence, it’s called breaking “the fourth wall.” The imaginary boundary between play and audience is broken. Woody Allen has done this many times in his movies, like in Annie Hall. Michael Caine did it throughout his movie Alfie. It’s more common on stage than in films, where it’s never been that popular.

We’ve been running a poll about this subject on SCORELAND, and the majority of respondents didn’t agree with L.D.R. We asked, “Do you like it when a model looks at the camera instead of the guy in a hardcore photo shoot?” A big 63% said yes, only 16% answered no and 21% didn’t have a preference either way.

A girl looking at the camera in a hardcore scene can work in different ways. Naturally, in a point-of-view shoot when the camera takes the place of the guy, the model looking into the camera is the most important part of the fantasy logic. A second situation–both guy and girl are shot in third person but she turns her head or her eyes to look directly at the camera, with different types of facial expressions, such as smiling or sexually turned on, extra-excited by someone else looking at her fucking and sucking her partner–is what L.D.R. objected to. He feels that he’s on the outside looking in, “a look but don’t touch” effect. There’s also a third: when the viewer is a peeping Tom spying on a couple and the girl might shoot knowing glances in the direction of the peeper while the guy is unaware.

Most of this applies to still photos. In most third-person hardcore videos, the girls rarely turn to look at and acknowledge the camera.

Personally, I’m a P.O.V. fan. They really pull you into the action. But this doesn’t work all the time. A lot of positions must be seen third-person unless mirrors are used. That’s why mirrored rooms are so big at hot-sheet hotels.

The same question is currently up on the Blog poll. What are your thoughts?
