porno, friend or foe?

Contributor: Daniel & Brittany Daniel & Brittany
I regard porn as a great visual aid, but many men I know have women who tend to feel jealous of the porn, so it seems you could have it turning one person on while turning the other off, would you say these men should even continue to try watching porn with their women, or say screw it and give up on the porn watching entirely?

I think I'd want to discuss the issue further with a partner before taking any of these actions. However, if we couldn't resolve the problem by talking it out, I'd rather ditch porn. I understand where jealousy issues could come from, so I wouldn't flee...

I could care less if my husband watches it or not. There's absolutely no reason to be jealous of it. It's not like the people are actually in the room or anything. As long as he doesn't know these people in person where he can act on feelings then I don't care at all. I am confident in knowing that my husband wants me and me only, and no porno is going to change that.

I honestly don't care-- I used to watch porn a lot when I was single and masturbating on my own.. I helped a lot!

However, I think the posed question depends. Is the man trying to force porn into their sexual activities together? Is he not focusing on her? Is he using porn as a distraction to intimacy?
If yes, then ditch the fricken porn!

If he is trying to incorporate it, and it makes her uncomfortable... Time to discuss and have open communication about feelings and implications..

And if he's on his own watching it as a masturbatory aid... She needs to cool her jets.

If a female partner hated her guy watching porn so badly, I'd suggest he watch it when she isn't around....lol.
That way, ya get to keep her and the porn without coping shit.

If she really had a problem with it, he might help by watching it with her. Or if that didn't work just doing it when she's not around. As long as it doesn't become a problem in the relationship or a constant thing, it should be fine.

I'm a girl and I dated a guy who didn't like porn (he had so many issues, I'm glad I got out of that) so I stopped mentioning it to him but I have the best orgasms through masturbation watching porn so it didn't stop me. But we didn't live together or anything, so that helped.

i'm a woman & i watch porn on my own. it's a little awkward watching it w/ my bf sometimes if we're doing it to get in the mood, but it's not b/c i'm jealous, it's just a little weird b/c i'm used to watching it alone. i like to see what he watches b/c i'm always curious as to what he prefers. hell, sometimes i go home & watch what he likes just to see if there is anything new i could learn to surprise him w/ later. he's always been happy w/ who i am & all that, but that doesn't mean he doesn't appreciate it when i throw in something new that he wasn't expecting.

I don't mind porn at all, and I don't mind that my SO watches it.

this suggests that couples who watch porn are stronger couples.

this suggests that wives should obey their husbands, unless it's something inherently evil, like watching porn.

I have a hard time being jealous of porn. They're actors and actresses and they're not having sex with my partner. It's enjoyable to watch from time to time, but I just don't need it in my life. I've had partners that loved it and I didn't have a problem with it. I
