Guys, how necessary is porn to you?

I have two opinions so far from men I know:

Male 1: Porn is normal, I watch it whenever the mood strikes.
Male 2: I have a wife. Why do I need porn when I can do everything with her.

These opinions were from men who have a partner with a normal to high libido and aren't prudish; so Male 1 chooses to solo rather than have sex with the partner while male 2 feels porn is unnecessary now because he can simply have sex with his wife. Both opinions are fine, because they're just preferences, but what do you guys think. How necessary is porn to you?

  • I like to use porn to explore different tastes, I have a fetish for pregnant black women

  • I have left hand so I never need nothing :)

  • I might be addicted

  • Let's put it this way, for masturbation a visual is needed or helps a lot for guys. Usually that means porn. For male 2, his wife isn't going to be around 24/7 likely when the mood strikes. Yes he can hold off and wait, but many guys will just masturbate then and there (if they can).

    Personally other things can substitute, but porn is the go to usually. But before internet, pictures were what I used, Playboy etc.

  • Porn is natural male visual fantasy and is no different than female mental fantasy.

    Asking men why they still look at or need porn while with a female is like asking women why they still have mental fantasy, read smut, or watch romance chick flicks while in a relationship.

    Any man who says he doesn’t watch porn is a liar. Just like a female claiming she no longer has mental fantasies.

    • Chill. Male 2 is not known to lie. His taste in porn was pretty vanilla before meeting his wife, so he doesn't need it as much as others who have a wide variety of sexual interest.

    • Honestly doesn’t require chill. Male fantasy doesn’t stop just because you get with someone the same way female fantasy doesn’t stop when they are with someone.

    • Men can have sex and go watch porn. Porn is entertainment, it has ZERO connection to sex with our partners. Just like women can have a guy give them romance and still watch a chick flick.

    • Show All
  • If I'm in a relationship it's not necessary. When I'm not in a relationship it's not exactly necessary but I find myself getting bored and horny and it's nice to see something sexual.

  • I’m #1. My wife has no problem with that. Sometimes it’s the start of marital sex.

  • Single and don't need or want it.
