Maybe I’m just too picky, but if the actor isn’t “my type” or I’m not attracted to him, I won’t enjoy the video. I have favorite actors (Jmac, Tommy Pistol, Ken Matsumoto, Charles Dera, Tyler Nixon, etc.), and a lot of the time I specifically look for videos with them instead of something new or random.

I’m curious what it’s like for you.

    Yes, people tend to watch porn of people they find attractive … kind of the point.

      True. That’s not what I meant. Some people just watch it for the action or the attractive bodies, without really caring who the performers are.

        But you wrote:

        I pretty much never directly search for a specific actor, but I click on some actors sometimes and look for different clips. But that depends a ton on the actor. Some always have roughly the same style, others play a lot of different roles with vastly different styles. Some only produce videos in some niche genres, others cover a ton of them. Some have more variety but keep the stuff the same that matters.

        Ok this comment sheds light on the original post. So I reply here. I don’t care who they are. I do care what the bodies look like from the neck down and what they are doing. They can be hot af but if they’re not doing what I’m looking for I won’t watch it. I also appreciate good photography, and can find myself watching something that’s not too interesting action wise just because the lighting and camera angles are right. But I do watch amateur stuff just as much as professionally set up stuff. Occasionally if there is a focus on facial expressions, they need to be at least believable.

        I never cared to know about the actors names and I don’t think I can recognize anyone in the genre, famous or not.

        I’m very light casual with my consumption though.
