The issue isn't, I think, whether "some women" enjoy the choke hold (I would argue that none do - they're lying). The subject of this thread is things we hate about porn, and the previous poster identified the choke hold. I agree with him. I think its disgusting and wish it was outlawed from porn (along with male performers opening their mouths and the ExploitedCollegeGirl guy - HATE him). We realize, I think, that some people may like it. Hey, I happen to like anal, and many others on here don't. But I agree with the original poster, personally.
As to the who is making the choice to put the male performers front and center point, I will agree with you to a point. I think there are many male performers who actively try to be the center of the scene. They talk incessantly, won't shut up, moan and grunt and make the "aren't I so great" faces at the camera (nothing worse than the wide eyes, mouth wide open, tongue out with two "I Love you" signs on each hand saying, essentially, "look at me, I think I'm a star). In my opinion male "performers" need to understand that they are fungible props and no one wants to see or hear from them (for example, again, the ExploitedCollegeGirls guy - in case you can't tell, I HATE him. He constantly asks women inane things like "do you like the way I fuck you," "am I better than your boyfriend" or "do you like to be choked". God I would love to punch that idiot in the face). As I've said before, the sooner that every male porn "actor" has his vocal cords forcibly removed, the better a world it would be. Shut up and be the props you are.
