Hey, guys! What was your first experience with porn like? What happened the first time you watched porn and how has your taste in adult movies have evolved over time?
Porn plays a significant role in shaping our sexual awareness, fantasies, and preferences. For many gay men, their first-time watching porn was a defining moment—whether it was straight porn, amateur videos, or high-production gay scenes. Some may have started watching porn before even realizing their true desires, while others used it as a tool to explore their sexuality. A gay man online asked, “What was the first porn you watched? And how have your tastes changed over time?” Let’s take a look at how some gay men answered this question.
One user recalled that his first porn experience was due to his older brothers. “It was straight porn because I have older brothers. Seeing the naked men made my dick hard and leak. The level of horny I felt back then was so much more powerful than what I feel now. So intense. First gay porn was definitely taking flight with Matthew Rush. I used to watch that and jerk off to it like every day.” It’s interesting how exposure to straight porn still awakened same-sex attraction, proving that sometimes, the stars of the scene are more important than the setup.
Another commenter had a similar experience: “Lots of straight hentai and soft core. The first full-on erected manhood I have seen on screen was that of the young Ramon Nomar. What a stallion.” Animated porn, especially hentai, has been a gateway for many, offering a mix of fantasy and erotica before transitioning to real-life actors.
Meanwhile, some gay men discovered their attraction through more conventional means: “I can’t remember but it was straight porn for sure. And yes, my tastes keep expanding.” The idea that tastes continuously evolve is a common theme, as new experiences and preferences develop over time.
One response stood out due to its unique and niche nature: “Officer muscle growth full version (Don’t judge please).” It goes to show that what turns one person on might not appeal to someone else, and what may seem unusual to one person might be someone else’s ultimate fantasy.
For those who grew up before the internet era, porn access was an entirely different experience: “At the beginning of my career, there was no such thing as online porn – not even still images – so the first porn I watched was on VHS and not very memorable. The first one I remember really enjoying was Frisky Summer, a BelAmi picture from 1995.” This comment highlights how accessibility has changed drastically over the years. Many had to rely on adult magazines or even fitness publications, which secretly catered to gay audiences.
And lastly, some discovered their preferences early and never strayed from them: “Probably the ‘cutedaemon’ amateur bondage from the early ‘00s. No, my tastes have not changed lol.” His answer showed that not everyone’s desires evolve—some people find their thing and stick with it for life.

I never did until I had a roommate with a collection. It was not common in the 1980s, you had to go to a theater of some kind, video rental had not even started yet. No VCRs until maybe 1985. I did go to a theater to see Centurions of Rome, and an elderly woman was sitting near me, getting excited. It was all about magazines in those days. When I started going to gay bars, some had videos playing, and it was stressful and shocking at first, especially seeing anal sex for the first time. I couldn’t believe there… Read more »
Don’t ask for comments and not post mine.
Only someone my contemporary (in my mid 60s) and probably also in the closet would be able to relate. I was 14 and starting to feel a lust for the male body. I went into a candy/news/general store one day, made my way toward the back where they had “adult” magazines. Nobody was looking. I found a copy of Playgirl magazine, a long-since-defunct women’s response to Playboy. Discreetly thumbed through the pages and came upon a very hot naked guy – first time I’d ever seen a fully naked guy outside of a locker room. I was drooling but no… Read more »

Until Peter North and those huge cum shots. Then I was hooked.
