Nope.
People have cravings and it would be better for them to get it out that way then actually stepping out.
I feel like people who are anti-porn are insecure and so seeing their partner watch porn triggers them.
They start to think “am I not enough?” “Is he/she going to step out and sleep with someone like in the video”.
Yeah I think the only reason it'd be cheating is in those cases where someone is watching more porn than spending time with their boyfriend/girlfriend. That's when I think things need to be addressed. But if it's just a once in a while kinda thing, I don't think most people would care.
Many consider it a form of emotional cheating if a partner is into porn, entertaining their one of their exes, and getting off on and having exchanges with IG thots and others social media more than their own spouse, partner or significant other. Porn addiction, erectile dysfunction, and desensitization to porn are also concerning for many who are looking for mature, loving, stable, committed relationships. That hole is open, the temptations are there, and the level of one's self-control and commitment are called into question.
There are many stories of people who are into porn wanting their partners to recreate porn scenes (including violent ones) with them. Since porn is often scripted and carefully executed, porn can cause one to create unrealistic expectations for their partner and how they perceive them. And trying to recreate violent pornographic sex scenes (especially recklessly) can cause harm to the receiving partner. If not careful, things like porn could put stress and strain on one's relationship. Even if you do not have porn addiction, many believe that porn can still negatively affect the mind and can help negatively shape how they view people despite the pleasure it brings.
I can see that. Especially when a couple create scenarios from said porn, and in turn hurt their relationship because of it. I wouldn't fret if my girlfriend was into watching porn, but if it was a daily thing, or was a habit, then I don't think I'd be into that. Once in a while is fine, but every day, or every waking minute, nah.
Emotional cheating is BS. The man or wifey notices beautiful people and briefly admires them. All people have a celebrity crush from before they were in a relationship. So, you gotta stop having that crush?
Regarding porn, it can be a red flag. Depending on how much porn. My homegirl used to say 'I found his porn' and I said that's not what you gotta worry about, porn is normal. What you need to look at is WHAT TYPE of porn. Is it all Asian or White or midgets or trannies, etc. What type he's watching is what he's into.
I don't view that as similar. I have many celebrity crushes, and I think I'd still have those crushes even if I meet a woman. I don't think it's a big deal, considering how women fawn over male celebrities all the time, even while being married, so I don't think it's as close as porn though.
If you're not living with your partner, you can get into porn once in a while to get by. It's totally understandable but too much of it isn't healthy for your sexual life.
But if you're living with your partner, it's pathetic to get into porn. I don't see it as cheating though but an insult to your partner.
That's fair. I don't think it's cheating either. I don't care too much if it's once in a while though. like If my girlfriend decided to watch porn, it wouldn't bother me. But if it was something she did often, and wouldn't stop, then I know there's a problem. Same as if I was watching porn, if I was watching too much of it, that will for sure put a strain on my relationship.
I am not a fan of porn and I won't pretend to be. If I am with a dude and he wants things to be serious, I don't want him beating off to some randoms online. Maybe I am old-fashioned but if I am not enough for you then maybe we ain't good together. Porn does nothing for relationships but paves a way to be disrespectful to your partner. No offense to the guys who partake in it but when you have the real thing plated up for you and you'd rather be shaking your meat stick solo, that's pretty sad.
If you want to watch it, find someone who is comfortable with watching it with you and use it as inspiration. If it is something you are doing solo, it will just add more weight to your relationship down the road. Relationships are hard work, you don't need to be adding in extra weight.
No, that's totally fair. If you don't want your man watching porn, I think you have every right to let him know your feelings on that. If I had a girlfriend right now, you bet I would rather be with her than watching porn. I second finding someone who is into it as well.
