Pros and Cons of Making a Couple's Movie
Keeping Secrets, Embarrassment, and Thrills
Celebrities like Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian have made headlines when movies they made in secret with their boyfriends where leaked onto the Internet. Many wonder why they would agree to make a such a movie (or tape) to begin with, but the practice is one couples have experimented with for years. It can add excitement to the romantic life of a committed couple, or it can wreak havoc in an already unstable relationship.
For couples wondering if making such a movie would help or hurt their relationship, here are a few pros and cons. On the pro side:
Secret Taping Can Draw Couples Closer Together
While the making of a tape in and of itself can be exciting for a couple, there is an added thrill with keeping it secret. Couples often experience a closeness through the knowledge that they have done something no one else in the world will share. A secret can bond two people together.
Filming Something Forbidden
While intercourse with two committed people is a beautiful thing, there is something very illicit about filming it. Even if no one else views or knows about the act, making a secret couple's movie can feel like the couple has invited someone into their bedroom. This feeling can heighten their intimate relationship.
Thrill of a Private Screening
The excitement of creating a secret movie can be experienced over and over when viewing the tape. It can provide another layer of secrecy for the couple. Not only did they film such a tape, but they must keep the fact that they've viewed it a secret. They have to hide it, and decide when to pull it out and watch it again. All these items can add to the thrill of making it.
And a few cons:
Tapes Get Stolen
Perhaps the biggest reason people don't film or keep a secret movie around is because other people have the potential to see it. Even if the couple is not famous, their children or friends may inadvertently get a peak at it. This could add to embarrassment and make the experience a negative one.
Awkwardness During Filming
While movie making may seem like a good idea at first, the actual act of creating such a tape is technical in nature. This can dampen the mood and make coupling with a partner awkward rather than exhilarating. Couples may feel very self-conscious and end up filming a negative intimate experience rather than a positive one.
Embarrassment During Viewing
Intercourse is equal part imagination and physical response. So while viewing a secret movie may seem like a turn on, it could have just the opposite effect. Couples could suddenly become embarrassed at how they look or act, which could make intercourse difficult from that point forward.
Secret movies, if made, should be done with plenty of thoughtful consideration ahead of time. Filming one of the most intimate acts of a relationship could possibly have a negative affect for years to come, so couples should consider the pro's and con's carefully. In the end, making a tape is a personal decision. Only the two partners involved can decide what's best for them.
