Since this question is hypothetical, variables allow for different answers. My ideal sexual relationship might actually involve exhibitionism and be non-commital. I may want to BE IN A PORN video with my partner. But more to your inference, I would first ask her, 'Why does it bother you? Jealous? Feeling inferior?' But if it made her happy, and she made me happy, yeah, I would give it up -- with a catch. She would have to sexually gratify me IN DIFFERENT WAYS... and I would tolerate no hypocrisy. No more 'Oooh, Brad Pitt is sooo sexy!' Tear down the Orlando Bloom and Johnny Depp posters. No more girls night out at Chippendales. Fair is fair!

There could be a lot of reasons why she does not want you looking at the porn. You should ask her why it bothers her. Address each of those issues seriously and without getting mad. If your relationship goes beyond just great sex, then it pays to attend to your partner's feelings. If it is just about sex and the porn is more important than the sex with her, then moving on might be best. Just don't lie and look at it on the sly.

Does she simply not like me looking at other women? If that's the case I would probably relent to her. But, if she were to object based simply on morality I would explain to her that while I may read a magazine that features pictures of nude women, it also has far more pages of entertaining and informative articles. I have found that many women object to a publication based on principal alone, and never bother to actually see what it's about.

I believe that if it is Playboy, than everything is cool, and my fiance agrees with that. But if it is something like hardcore or fetish stuff, then the partner should agree to what the limits are, or find common ground so both parties enjoy it. A little porn never hurt anyone, unless it makes the partner uncomfortable.

Porn is something I like. I didn't stop while I was married even though on several occasions I threw all my porn away at her request. Now I am divorced, but even so, if it was a perfect relationship I would say No! If your man doesn't want to give it up, you should not force him to. Does every time he has an orgasm have to be with you?

(No anal, not while you're in the room, no trace left on the shared computer) Or, if you're feeling unappreciated, can you accommodate his desires? (clean house naked, show him whatever/whenever) If that feels unfair, ask him for special favors in return. One powerful element of his attraction is that he can see beautiful women doing anything, anytime, without limit! It's like Scrooge McDuck when he 'swims' in his money. He loves that the quantity is beynod his desire to buy stuff. It just is, and it is his. He does not prefer or compare these women to you, he just loves the idea that he has the power to do such a forbidden thing.

Are you crazy? The porn chicks are way hotter than the b**ches we're f*cking. I would f*ck a porn chick in front of my girlfriend on the Thanksgiving table and when I was finished I would slap both her parents with my ---. Stop watching porn, are you out of your mind?

That might mean if I still wanted to check it out, it would need to be done without her knowledge. I think what you really might be asking is why would a guy in this situation be looking at porn in the first place? It is not a negative reflection on his partner. I think men are much more apt to separate sex from love.

Looking at it bugs the heck out of my wife because she thinks it will lead to me cheating on her, but it won't. It just doesn't work that way for men. We like porn on its own; it isn't necessarilly a substitiute for our mate or a sign of dissatisfaction. It's like junk food for the brain: convenient, tastes good but not good for you. That being said, I think your feelings should be respected, especially if you are maintaining a good sexual relationship.

Name : Mike, Gender : M, Race : White/Caucasian, Age : 35, City : denton, State : TX Country : United States, Education level : 4 Years of College, Social class : Middle class, With the onset of obesity surging through our country, the answer should be quite obvious. Poor self-esteem on the parts of many women across the United States. They know that they are physically inferior in almost every single way. Women who are in shape, if they know what they are doing will always make a better lover. If for no other reason than stamina. Fat women know this, and they know deep down inside that they can never hope to perform in bed as well as a woman who is in good physical condition. It's much like generic food. If you eat it long enough, eventually you forget how good tasting the name-brand really was. If you never see what a woman who cares about what her body looks like, then you'll settle for the one you have to roll in flour to see the wet spot.

My wife is aware that I use it but part of the 'thrill' for me is hiding my usage from her. I don't hide the materials . . . I am just secretive when I watch them. I don't believe I would stop if she wanted me to. I am certain that while she may not utilize porn, masturbation and fantasy are a part of her sex life that I am not involved in. I believe it is simply impossible to have all of your desires filled by your spouse.

Why does porn bother you? Do you not like the fact that your significant other is watching strangers procreate? Or do you just feel uncomfortable with him looking at other women naked and, potentially, becoming aroused by it? My questions stated aren't to offend you, but rather get an insight into why you're so disturbed by pornography. I can't speak for all guys, but I have noticed that the majority of guys who watch porn watch hardcore stuff. Meaning they're not watching a lone female, they're watching the act; which to many people is arousing. I know quite a few females who get off by watching, what is in essense, strangers having sex. It's not the 'people' we're getting off to, rather the 'act.' I guess you could say not all guys have the best imaginations.

This is not the response I would expect from men, however. Pornography will end when men can keep their libido in check. My recommendation: don't hold your breath. And for the why: Because nothing beats the press of flesh. Images on a screen or magazine are poor substitutes for sex, plus I get the bonus of an *actual* relationship! The Earth has spun from its orbit!

Her not wanting me looking at porn would be more of an issue of trying to control me and, in turn, revealing her own misconceptions about pornography and her personal insecurities. I would try to explain the male need for visual stimulation and try to share that with her. If she wouldn't accept that, I wouldn't 'rub her face in it' by making it obvious as to what I was looking at while she was gone but I wouldn't quit looking at porn or even pretend to. Men have porn, women have Cosmo.
