The Ethics Of Public Sex And Public Porn

Public sex is one of those controversial topics where society’s view on it has always been more or less divided. We all know that dogging is something prohibited but some individuals still fantasize or even engage in it while others are strongly against it. And here we have to ask - is mating in public a biological imperative or a social contract?

For example, we could look at the animal world. Some animals, such as bonobos, a species of great apes related to chimpanzees, and dolphins prefer to mate in public while others, such as gibbons and cats prefer to mate in more secluded areas.

The main reason for having sex in private is to avoid predators and general interruption. But why would some animals choose to do it in public? Perhaps the most obvious reason is the sign of ownership. By mating in front of their whole colony, they are showing their dominance and how their chosen partner belongs to them.

So, could the same apply to humans or are we simply fascinated by public sex because of the taboo aspect of it? And, if we took the taboo part of it away, would we still find public sex just as appealing? In my opinion, some people would still be attracted to this concept while others would lose interest.

Why do people have public sex?

Now that we have looked at why animals have sex in public, why do people do it? As I already mentioned, the taboo of public sex plays a big role in it. But there’s more than that. It can be really fun to break the rules and rebel against what is accepted in our society.

On top of that, public sex is probably not something people get to do every day, so the act itself is extremely exciting and definitely gets the blood pumping and heart racing. In a way, it is like a rare dessert that you only get on special occasions.

And doing something that’s against the rules is thrilling in itself. Public sex is also something that a lot of us fantasize about, perhaps because the idea of letting your inner animal free and indulging in animalistic pleasure is a major turn on.

Last, but not least, like many other sexual practices, it can be a good way to get to know yourself and discover aspects of your identity that are not readily expressed in a mainstream society.

The ethics of public sex

Now that you know why people engage in and fantasize about public sex, it is time to talk about ethics. Yes, the not so fun part of public sex. Unfortunately, we don’t live in an anarchistic world and our actions can have consequences.

First, it should be recognized that public sex is an act of public indecency. And penalties for public indecency can range from fines to criminal charges, depending on the severity of the behavior and the local laws.

Laws regarding public sex in the United States vary from state to state, as criminal law is primarily a matter of state jurisdiction. However, engaging in sexual activity in public spaces is generally prohibited, and individuals may be charged with offenses such as public indecency, lewd conduct, or disorderly conduct.

Penalties can range from fines to imprisonment, depending on the severity of the offense and the specific laws of the state.

Besides legal consequences that you may face for engaging in public sex, it is also important to understand why it is not ethical. While the majority of public sex connoisseurs don’t actually desire to get caught, it is always a risk.

And, if people see you, they might be offended or simply feel uncomfortable because they did not consent in seeing sexual acts in public. Also, depending on the location that you choose to have sex, there is a risk that children might witness your sexual escapades which is a big no no.

Is there a way to make public sex more ethical? Well, perhaps. You could consider having sex on your private property, considering that you are not in your neighbors’ view or attend a sex party where public sex is not only allowed but also expected. This way you can still get the thrill without putting yourself at the risk of breaking the law.

Is public porn ethical?

Public porn, among taboo genres such as ‘old/young’ and ‘step siblings’, has held its place on most porn sites for a while. Perhaps, in a way, watching public porn to some feels as naughty as engaging in public sex themselves. The prohibited nature of the act makes it feel even more exciting and helps people to get their rocks off. However, how ethical is public porn? And is it always real or staged?

Of course, public porn is a mix between real and staged. Some porn creators choose to actually sneak around and film their sexcapades in public, while others choose the safe and, arguably, more ethical route. For a moment I want to stop and ask - is public sex really unethical if there are no bystanders who could see it? What do you think?

If you don’t want to make your content in real public circumstances, there is always an option to film it in a private or rented space and maybe even invite some people to act as the shocked bystanders. Problem solved and sexy content is still being made!

Conclusions and final thoughts

At the end of the day, I am not going to tell you whether public sex and public porn is good or bad. The ethics of it are for each person to determine on their own. However, as a public sex and porn enjoyer myself, I certainly get the thrills of engaging in it.

To me, it is like a fun game of how much I can get away with in public without actually getting caught. And, as long as children or non-consenting adults are not caught in my public sexcapades, I don’t see anything unethical in it. Do you?
