Pornography in Relationships…

In a way it is something that must not be, especially if you are physical with your partner.

Some people don’t mind if their partner watch porn, but the question is: What happens when porn starts to diminish relationship commitment? And in some cases men / women swap out the person who’s actually lying in bed with him / her for some fantasy person they’ve never met (and probably never will).

And I think that watching porn kind of gives you an “ idea ” about how sex is supposed to be in the bedroom, and some people expect that from their partners and in some cases gets disappointed when they can’t live up to the standards….that is also where cheating comes in…they go look for that satisfaction.

For some women / men that are insecure about themselves pornography in a relationship can be their downfall. Cause, that seeing physically attractive and sexually available partners on screen may heighten a person’s perceptions of his / her own possible partner. And how can you satisfy someone like that when you can’t even be content with yourself?

Pornography in Relationships…

A lot of people will disagree, because porn spice up their relationships...and doesn't interfere with their intimacy. But the question is: " Who is really on your partner's mind? Is it you or the woman / man in the video? Are you giving the satisfaction or them?"

  • Porn has nothing to do with the breakdown of relationships. On the contrary all it does is widen the minds of the males who have kowtowed to the woman's demands due to a lack supply of high-quality female replacements.

    The only thing that truly destroys relationships is the female's ability to insist on monogamy and the marital laws that give her a prize when it doesn't work in her favor. That's it.

  • I think the key to all relationships is conversation. I've discussed it with my partner before, and we've decided that so long as porn doesn't interfere with our sex life it's ok. If someone were to try to keep up with my sex drive we'd be having sex 1-4 times a day. Not many people are willing to do that so I had to do something to relieve myself in the interim.

  • Porn is bad and gross. There will be no porn when I'm married. I'm glad the guy I like dislikes Porn just as much as I do.

  • Does this mean that the fantasies that I think up kill love too? Because to be honest, not all the girls that have made an appearance have a name, because they are someone I dreamt up. And honestly not all people are as willing to please their partners as you imply them to be. I've heard from multiple men lamenting the fact that even if she is lying in bed with them, she doesn't want to have sex even if he is really horny. And they've respected her right to that, but that respect does not give them any release for their urges. And these sort of "dry" periods can last for months in some cases. So is the guy just supposed to repress his wants and needs? Or just dump her and find someone new who will satisfy them? Plausible options yes, but most men would want to try to find a way to keep the relationship going because most likely they like the girl they are with so getting some alone time with porn solves the problem temporarily. And this is just in relationships, I can't be the only person who has heard married men lament how their sex lives has taken a dive after marriage. So personally, I don't see anything wrong with either side in a relationship enjoying porn from time to time. Obsession is a whole different issue.

  • I never get what the fucking deal is with girls and pornography. Seriously. Quit being a prude and watch Porn and talk to your partners about it. IF your partner is a mature guy, he will know that he sees Porn only as entertainment, just the kind of thing you do when you watch breaking bad. Does that mean that every breaking bad viewer is a meth addict? Nooooo... Because those with brains and maturity would be able to separate real life from fiction or fantasy. You will too, if you watch enough Porn. So the key is. Girls, watch more Porn in order to stop being such prudes. Cause like it or not, your man does and will keep on watching Porn. You having a problem with it will only make you lose him cause that means you have no understanding of how a male's brain works

    • This is not about me... my guy don't watch porn... he used to, not anymore

    • I'm talking about the general "you" here. And sure he doesn't, sweety... I'll just wait and see

    • alright then

  • Porn can be a destructive animal... I heard a great saying once:

    There are two wolves who are always fighting. One is darkness and despair. The other is light and hope. The question is which wolf wins?
    Answer: THE ONE YOU FEED.

    • You are a blessing. You are speaking the truth. As a man, I feed the light. The light show hope.

    • No, the question is how do you tell them which wolf is which? Some things more dangerous than porn: using tobacco, owning a gun, playing American football.

    • key words: Can be... not necessarily.

  • I don't think that porn destroys a relationship when two people are having sex no one else should be on your mind.

  • If it gets to a point where its changing the relationship for the worse I'll start to say something ab it, it shoudn't be a need in the first place to me it indicates something is missing

  • If pixels become hotter than your girlfriend then you should get a hotter girlfriend. Same in reverse lol. Girlfriend has a sexy body and I think I look pretty damn good myself. We both have strong sexual chemistry. We know how to get each other off. I would never choose porn over my girlfriend lol.

    My girlfriend and I watch porn together but half of the time we are laughing our asses off at the terrible acting and the obnoxiously fake moans. I always started laughing at when a girl starts moaning out of sequence while giving the guy a titty job. We are rational enough to make that distinction between porn and reality. Besides we mostly watch amateur stuff anyways.

    • I'm insecure about porn. But you have enlightened me. If I was with a guy who approached it as you do, who knew it was fake and made light of it instead of just acting like a 13 year old boy, porn could sooooo be fun.

  • Guys refuse to admit the damage it does to them and their relationships... Good luck trying to change their minds. I completely agree with you and I still watch porn. But I hardly watch any at all, maybe once a week for like 3 minutes. But it is so socially acceptable, easily accessible, and deeply ingrained in culture that its negative effects are essentially out of sight for most men.

    • I agree with you, understand your point*

  • "But the question is: " Who is really on your partner's mind? Is it you or the woman / man in the video? Are you giving the satisfaction or them?""

    No the question is that why are you this insanely paranoid, are you not able to tell the difference between fiction and reality?

  • Porn is just a porn, sometimes help to spice up, sometimes not, but it's always great when you watch together with your partner and then discus about. Like what does he/she liked about it, what does she/he disliked and why, or you can just try it to see how it feels and find out what do you like. Of course, it will be different, but you'll be glad that you tried it, even if you didn't like it that much,

  • #Fighthenewdrug :D I strongly hate porn

  • I think it's a way for guys that have a fetish or fantasy that won't or can't be fulfilled to have something visual to use since males are more visual than women in regards to what turns them on.

  • Some people learn sexual positions and techniques from porn. Porn can teach them what kind of a bedroom is good , what type of bathroom is good , shows different lingerie and sex toys. Porn also teaches about sexual diseases and hygiene. And porn gives pleasure and entertainment. But what you say is right. Son't substitute porn stars with your partner and expect her to perform like a porn star. And don't be obsessive with porn all the time. After marriage the use of porn viewing should be drastically reduced. Dedicate more time to your sexual partner.

    • Some people learn rape from porn. "Just grab her pussy and she's ready to be copulated." is what they retain from porn

    • @jacquesvol They are complete morons then, I feel like anyone with a normal IQ would never make that conclusion from watching porn.

    • @jacquesvol Just like they wouldn't conclude from watching action movies that they can dodge hundreds of bullets while having perfect aim with a handgun. Most normal people know fiction from reality. :/

  • I do not mind my partner watching porn. Long as he knows I will not try crazy things lol

  • Any obsession is bad whether it is porn, job, an ex, hobby, whatever it is. Porn is always seen as the only bad thing, but really it can be anything that interferes with a relationship.

  • I watched porn with my ex all the time.

  • who the fuck thinks of a pornstar while having sex with his girl xD does anybody actually do that?

  • You have a point. But I think it will affect the insecure guys and girls. Cuckold, threesome etc fantasies can ruin relationships even though they might seem innocent.
