Real people in adult movies – many of you may find this hard to believe, but this is a relatively new concept. Starting with the launch of Redtube.com in 2005, "Real Sex" rapidly became the consumer’s choice over traditional porn which dominated the industry for over a century.

Over the last 4 years Australia has been drowned in "reality porn". From Youjizz.com to Porntube.com, there is no end to list of websites to choose from when looking for amateur adult entertainment. So I decided to do a little research, just to see what the fuss was all about.

Nearly 3 weeks and 66 coffees later I had rummaged through all the major websites, taking notes along the way on what was good and bad about them all. What I found was quite surprising. They all lacked the story behind the sex. So on one hand there was "traditional porn" that told a story, but wasn’t real, and on the other hand there was "reality porn" which was real, but didn’t tell a story.

So I set out on a mission to find out whether there was anyone…anywhere making films with both, real people and a story line. On my travels I only stumbled upon one company that was doing it, Comstock Films.

In the article Eyes Wide Open featured in the July 2007 issue of Oprah Winfrey’s O Magazine, Violet Blue writes: "Comstock Films, maker of high-quality, documentary-style, real-couples videos, aggressively markets to women with the simple tagline "Women love real sex". Director Tony Comstock shows what it looks like when two people who are in love have sex," says Blue. "It's beautiful—the antithesis of shapeless, boring porn in which everyone is just going through the motions."

Comstock Films produces films about sex – nothing more and nothing less. If you want to see the TV repair man walking in on an unsuspecting busty blonde, you might want to look elsewhere. There is no airbrushing, no fake orgasms, and certainly no threesomes or orgies for that matter.

These movies tell a story about couples who are passionately in love with each other, but that’s not the best part. Viewers are able to watch these couples grow together, and find out how they feel about each other through interviews and commentary before watching them make love. This is groundbreaking stuff. The intimacy between these couples is all that matters. No devices or special techniques are necessary as there are adoring connections between the couples in these films. And with such passion, no sex toys, Kama Sutra, or even sexy costumes are necessary to intensify the film.

Raw, real sex – that's what Comstock Films offers… with hot results.

How Real Is Too Real?

Granted, sex without all of the bells and whistles of traditional pornography can sometimes seem a little dull. Sometimes pornography becomes a more wildly sexual experience because it delves into the realm of fantasy. However, I think that it can sometimes be difficult to relate to the traditional porn films. If a man or woman wants to find a partner similar to the actors on the latest installment of "Debbie Does Dallas" they are going to have to start frequenting some pretty questionable night spots.

Real sex also has its mistakes, its missteps, and its flaws. Not every movement is perfect, sometimes people aren't moving completely in sync, and often the couples are hesitant about being too risqué. However, as the couples move across the screen, viewers realize that while the performances aren't perfect – they're also not performers. The imperfections then become a large part of the film’s realism, making it all the more enjoyable. In the article "Sex Homework" featured in Women’s Health in November 2006, real life couple Stacey and Bryce said this about one of the Comstock favorites, Xana and Dax, "It’s a real couple having sex. They looked like people we would know and be attracted to. We loved Xana and Dax because they’re a real couple, with genuine orgasms and a sincere admiration for each other. We watched it straight through, and even though we were as tired as usual, we had sex right after.

Why Real Life Needs More Real People

75% of all Australian couples we interviewed believed that most pornography movies they had watched seemed fake. They thought that the performers and their orgasms just weren't believable.

There's enough pressure already on men and women to have 'perfect' sex, so why should the pornography industry promote this unrealistic ideal? With Comstock Films, those that view the movies see people just like them – imperfections and all.

Not only is this reassuring, but it's empowering. Seeing someone else with the same body type or the same desires in the bedroom encourages the viewer to try new things for themselves, to see themselves as a potential porn star as well – even if they never pull out a camera.

Choosing Porn That Pleases

People watch adult films for any number of reasons:

  • For stimulation – There is no aphrodisiac like watching others have sex to set the mood. A hot adult movie can sometimes get a man or woman to a heightened state of arousal before sex ensuring an orgasm during sex.

  • For bedroom ideas – There are many things you can learn from watching pornography. The use of sex toys for example can create a whole new dimension in the bedroom. Vibrators, dildos, and clitoral stimulators which are used in many adult films can provide that extra stimulation needed to bring your partner to orgasm. Not to mention, these movies showcase a wealth of experience in Kama Sutra and modern sexual positions.

  • To enhance intimacy in a relationship – Couples who watch porn together enhance their intimacy by breaking down the false idea that pornography is somehow dirty or deviant.

Porn comes in a variety of shapes, sizes, and fetishes. But the one fetish that hasn't been explored as much as couples might like is the idea of real people having real sex.

Thank goodness for Comstock Films. The documentary style filming makes a viewer feel as though they are peeking into a bedroom, much like their own, and getting a personal show.

Never intrusive, though often intimate, the real life sex films create a connection with the audience in ways that the over-glamorized pornography world cannot.

Another Bedroom Scene

The bedroom becomes a difficult place to navigate when all of the role models are filled with silicone or have extraordinarily large penises. With real people on the screen, real couples in real life can not only have genuine role models, but also a hot taste of what others are doing to show their partners they care. Sure, real sex can be messy, but it's real. And that's what counts.
