Why is porn...

Why is it when you watch a porn video, it seems really hot and you're really into it, then as soon as you orgasm, you look at the video and it's literally disgusting and can sometimes make you feel sick?

This was a mechanism we evolved in order to stop us having sex constantly. After sex, it was necessary to become disinterested, or else we'd continue seeking pleasure from it to the detriment of other survival/reproductive needs.

It's Beckham's Dildo, actually.
Depends what you're watching. When you're horny it's often novelty that turns you on. Stuff that you otherwise wouldn't find appealing.

This and I've had this before.
Especially if it's mature porn or some really dirty fetish porn then the effect is even more significant.

Judging by your username, you watch some ****ed up ****.
After ejaculation genitals go through a refractory period in which it loses its re erection capability and it's impossible to orgasm again, it varies between minutes/hours. This refractory period rises with age, weight and other factors also influence it.

I know the feeling mate, right after orgasm I always questioned why I found the particular video hot in the first place.

I find it worst when you watch a video that includes lots of fluids, so for example cumshots etc. Afterwards I'm just like, eugh grim.
I just get an overwhelming feeling of shame and sadness.

It's known as the 'refractory period'. All of the innate behaviours present in humans are the result of evolution by natural selection, and as such can be investigated by asking what benefit the adoption of a given behaviour has. Believed to be responsible for the effect is the release of the chemical prolactin, an inhibitor of dopamine release (dopamine is a key chemical involved in feelings of sexual arousal).

An interesting related phenomenon is the 'Coolidge effect', whereby males express a renewed interest in sex if introduced to a new partner even in this period of inhibited sexual desire. This makes the case fairly clear cut in terms of the natural selective pressures involved: sex with the same partner immediately after ejaculation is a waste of time and energy, whereas sex with a new partner will not be.

This is what has totally put me off watching porn, I always just feel so horrified and sad afterwards.
Especially as someone who considers themself a feminist and the fact the guys are all absolutely minging. Just makes me feel like a disgusting person.

Edit: Also facials are my idea of hell.
