Okay so I never thought about this, but I just saw a TikTok meme about it and I knew right away I had to see what others thought.
I’ve never been in a long term relationship so I feel like, for me, my opinion would depend on that. Personally, I’ve been watching porn since I was around 6. I know that’s crazy, but I had family friends (around my age) who had older brothers. They introduced me. Anyways, I don’t think I would mind (especially if we weren’t living together or anything). I wouldn’t want them to expect me to be available for sexting or whatever whenever they were horny, and I wouldn’t have that expectation for them either. If we were married and or living together and they chose to use porn instead of trying with me, I’d probably be like why? If I didn’t want to get it on I guess I’d say to do what they got to, I don’t think it would bother me along the lines of jealousy which is why most women don’t like when their S/O watch porn.
I don’t know, what do you guys think and if you have experience in this or with this problem in a relationship, how did it go?
Is watching porn while you are in a relationship cheating (in your opinion)?

I’m going to put this so people stop messaging me about it!! I DO NOT HAVE A YES OR NO OPINION ON THIS. Some of you are calling me dumb but I didn’t say it was cheating! It’s just a question based on what you think.

What Girls & Guys Said
26 88I’d say it’s looking for ideas. Maybe their are some things they are looking at spicing up the bedroom activities.
Porn since 6?
You have totally warped your mind.
Around first grade. I remember it very well. Couldn’t be too warped. I used to get in trouble and caught for it all the time. I didn’t know if I knew what it was really, but that doesn’t change the fact I was viewing it.
You view of what real intimacy and healthy sex between a man and woman is warped now from 15 years of that crap. Trust me... you aren't going to realize it... you are too close to the situation. You do not need to proclaim how healthy your view of true intimacy and sexual live is.
How do you know her view is warped by it? I started watching porn around the age of 5 or 6 and I've never been in doubt about what real intimacy or sex is like. Early exposure doesn't equate to corruption. It never scarred me in the slightest.
@kinton98 Sure.
Not at all.
No lol
No it is not. It is merely entertainment because it is not interactive like a cam girl, omegle, etc..
It is to me
Asolutely not. Its no different than using a vibrator. Guys are more visual. Its a tool for masturbation.
I was just as sexual in a relationship watching porn as I was without it. If you like the person it changes nothing.
No. I don't see it as that
In last 18months i've knly watched porn when staying away from my girlfriend or when she's been off sex due to pregnancy. My first preference would always be sex. If thats not on the table and i'm horny, porn is a means to an end for a release
lol meanwhile I first watched porn when I was 15 (but first saw live vagina when I was 4).
No it's not cheating unless there is a personal connection (amateur porn of ex girlfriend etc)
I DO NOT HAVE A YES OR NO OPINION ON THIS.
Yes it's cheating also you where introduced to porn when you where 6? Wow that's messed up
how is it cheating
@jasco Because your literally watching other human beings have sex and be naked for your own sexual pleasure while your supposed to be in a committed relationship.
Mm I see
The kid was around 7, so he didn’t know either. He’d found some stuff on his brothers computer and we just saw it all together. He was my best friend so there was no (at the time) sexual violence or anything happening.
You have no connection with that person. No physical or emotional. It's some random person you don't know and will never know on a tv screen and you're just getting off to yourself. How is it any different than watching a sex scene in a movie, or getting off to your imagination from a poster of somebody? If that person has a masturbation addiction, it needs to be addressed and worked out. That's something that would be on the level that's stopping him from getting his life priorities done. But if he's not having sex with you, it could be other reasons... and I'd say masturbation on the side is the least of your problems You can't afford to overreact like that when you get into a relationship with a dude, or it won't stay for the long term. And believe it or not, people have urges. Sometimes people aren't with their partners, so they masturbate
Ok got it.
So what's your opinion? Just playing. Come on ladies unless there's a physical human involved or unless he has feelings other than just wanting to get off then you're just tripping over mouse turds I mean if it bothers you that much then step it up
Wouldn't say so, it isn't like you're having an affair with the porn actor. It might be good to get the ok from your SO about it, but it isn't a big deal to me.
No it's not a problem. I wouldn't consider it cheating. But seriously try to limit watching it tho if you are in a relationship.
No... if you interact with it then it is cheating so a hooker is cheating so are camgirls if you interact or pay them
of course not!
when you beat to porn you're not making love or showing affection to the person in the screen. you're just temporarily emptying out your tank
I don't think it's cheating but a lot of women find it disrespectful to them.
No. Odd, but no. Porn does nothing for me personally so not something I follow to begin with. Still, is it cheating, no. If it is, no more than women watching romance movies and reading tawdry romance novels. Just each’s escape is all.
Definitely not cheating. There's no emotional or physical relationships with porn. So where's the potential issue?
No, it's not. Watching porn is great when you do it together. Try, if you haven't already. Won't be disappointed.
