I dont think porn is bad for everyone, but I do believe it is poisonous for me.


same here. porn was a 'substitute' after my divorce when i didn't want to risk hooking up with strangers until i found a person i was truly in love with.

but now that i have her..even though i've had the occasional urge..i consciously don't do it. its like avoiding fast food. i could eat popeye's every day but i don't because i know even though i enjoy it in the short term, i'll weigh 400lbs if i keep it up.

What keeps causing you to go back to it Turkey?

I think that's a big key in breaking the cycle.

If he's a self respecting man, he should.

Again, what good does it bring to a relationship? I believe we should seek our partners for that release and that connection.

By bringing porn into the equation, we are essentially (maybe not intentionally) admitting we need something besides our S/O's for a release. Something seems wrong about that to me. And so far, for me, my little experiment confirms it in my own life.

To each their own though.

Ive known a lot of women to watch porn. Some that would watch it more than me. These ladies were usually my best friends

Only dated one chick that watched porn consistently though. It didnt bother me one bit.

That's why you talk to your partner about all types of things in bed. It can get exciting! It's a no judgment area for me.

And porn is supposed to be the guide there?

For me, there has to be better options.

Kama Sutra iPhone app for example

also, i want to state that i am much better in bed due to pr0n and that every chick i have banged for the past twelve years has benefited from it


but i do believe it desensitizes people in regard to sex/making love

The wife and I do not need porn as a guide. We communicate before, during, and after sex. Also, her and I both just do what feels right... regardless of where that may take us.

i'm no saint at all and old habits die hard but i wanted our relationship to get off on the right foot and now i don't want to damage what we have by satisfying my desire with porn.

simple as that.

and i will say my wife is very cool with sex.

the one thing we have enjoyed together is shopping for toys. that's way more fun when we're feeling adventurous than turning on porn.

with toys at least our focus on always on each other and i just cant help but believe thats healthier.

I take pron breaks here and there but my problem is my sex drive exceeds the occurrence. We usually bone 1-2/wk almost exclusively on weekends, but I start getting the urge middle of the week. I've never passed up sex with wife though so no problem there, I just look at it (pron) as a release in between the real thing.
