Why would anyone have a problem with their partner watching porn?

Occasionally, I'm not saying everyday watching it.
Some people even view it as cheating, I don't understand?
What's the problem?

  • Considering porn a way of cheating is ridiculous. Porn is a tool that can even be used to spice things up. I'm a fan.😈😇😂

  • I don't have a problem with my boyfriend watching porn and vice versa.
    However, I'm pretty sure I've read people (mostly girls) saying they don't like or even let their boyfriends watch porn because to them, it IS cheating. The same kind of people who think it's cheating when their boyfriend simply finds another chick to be hot.

    • Least he's at home

    • I'd hope 😂

    • Total agreeeeee

  • I'm with you. Imagine that!!

    • Me and you We get each other Me and you

    • What're your favorite kinds of porn?

    • I only watch myself

    • Show All
  • As long as their not addicted to it and its ruining our swx life. I don't see the harm. But I do believe that a couple have to agree on this or it's not gonna work

  • No, because I am not a crazy person. Who the hell doesn’t like porn?

    • I don't but I care less if my guy does

    • Really? Why don’t you like it?

    • Just doesn't do anything for me. I like watching myself though

  • Insecurity of the person, that their partner who is watching porn might later cheat or come to realize they want someone better than them

  • Bunch of possible reasons, but mostly insecurity.

    Watching porn is just voyeurism. Watching other people have sex is one of the mildest and most common fetishes out there, especially for men. People who don't really get that tend to think that watching porn means you're fantasizing about fucking someone in it. And while that can absolutely be part of it, it's not really the basis for it.

  • I know some women like this, I don't get it either lol

  • I can understand everyday, but just occasionally? I personally wouldn't say it's an issue. In fact, I think that with moderation, it can potentially improve the sexual experience between the two as they will know what gets them riled up. If they know what pleases them, they can communicate said desires to the guy/girl.

    But I'm totally with you. I've never understood this notion. Probably because of insecurity or something

  • It's emotional cheating, you're jacking off to another woman, smh. Just like liking another girl's pick or flirting with other women, I would not tolerate those things.

  • Only stupid bitches who are prone to jealously ! -- I encourage it!! I love that he loves it! -- It keeps him busy, and I don't take something so silly personally. They're just actors for gods sake, and so what? Guys love porn, the end. I'm down with it. Rather be all in positively encouraging it then trying to 'shame' him and make restrictive 'conditions' on him where he would have to sneak or go behind my back! That's stupid.

  • I already had a talk about this recently :)

    I don't want to be controlling, that's not my goal.

    However, I do have three points.

    1) I think there would be anxiety over me feeling like I can't satisfy her enough and her having thoughts of expanding past porn

    2) going against my Faith. Given Christianity has different views on this but the porn practice relies on lust and if you lust after a person you have already committed adultery in your heart.

    3) what family or friends think about it. Hopefully, this would never come up and this would stay private but what if there is a freedom policy in the house and my mom is trying to find my wife for some reason and she catches her watching porn. That becomes a tricky situation... Given it's rare that it would ever happen but it's a what if scenario

    Overall, it's her choice as an adult. I'm not going to judge her for it. But with differing views it can be a struggle to find a peaceful balance for both to find. And I think it's all about having the freedom to make your own separate adult choices in the relationship.

  • i dunno they probably think Game of thrones is cheating too

  • I totally agree with you

  • Insecurity.
    The parther may be worried that they're not enough for you sexually.

  • I dont see a problem.
    But i suppose if you have a healthy sex life some people may wonder why it's necassary. If you're horny you can have sex, not watch porn.

    • No way that just doesn't translate in the real world. Guys are hornier than the opportunities to have sex permit, ... PLUS guys don't always wanna hassle with their girlfriend and all their bullshit and baggage to have sex... gimme a break

    • Before our son was born there was a time i was getting laid 2 or 3 times a day, several days a week. I wasn't watching porn then. And i've watched porn most days for 20 years.

  • Body insecurities are probably a good place to start looking. They start comparing and contrasting themselves, find themselves wanting and get jealous of their partners attention.
    Another thing is it's a way to control and manipulate the relationship, always make the partner feel guilty and more willing to go along with the controlling partners agenda.
    And lastly some people have issues with the porn industry, how it treats actresses (though how actors are treated is rarely brought up) and find the subject itself abhorrent.

  • If I had a partner, I would be delighted if she was horny enough to watch pornography.
    I would want to know what she was watching, so I could learn what turned her on, then turn her darkest fantasies into reality.

  • Beats me 🤷‍♂️

  • Watching porn is a release to relieve any stress plus it's not harming anyone either!

  • Those are the kind that are extremely insecure and not capable of separating an image on screen from real life.. Its a character flaw honestly.. My ex was like that.. Thank god my wife is not.

    • I agree with that.

    • @COMMODOREII he's smart were neighbors
