Is it norm to watch porn?

I'm having a discussion with some girl friends, one who recently found out her DH watched porn when she was out of town.

First of all, do you think it's normal, healthy s-xual behavior to watch porn?

What about for a married person (without the spouse's presence)?

If you found out your spouse was watching porn without you, what would you do?

    I saw an article about a study.... the study never actually happened. The scientists were looking to compare men who watched porn with men who didn't watch porn. They set out to get volunteers for the study. They hit a problem. That problem was that they couldn't find any male volunteers for the "men who don't watch porn" group - because they couldn't find any men who didn't watch porn. So the study never happened and they had to conclude that all men watch porn.

    Is that proof that men who don't watch porn don't exist? No. But it does show that they are hard to find.

    From a marriage point of view, probably best for you to enjoy it together. But if he's watching it alone I don't see it as that big a deal to be honest. If a husband was unwilling to share it at all then that might be something to be concerned about.

    Yeah it's definitely normal to watch porn. I'm single, but I watch porn. Not too frequently, but I do.

    If I was married, as long as my spouse is honest and open about it, then it would be okay.

    100% normal, in my opinion if you don't allow your partner to watch it you are an incredibly unreasonable person. It's perfectly normal for people of both sexes to watch it.

    If a dude/chick wants to whack off by him/herself to porn I don't think he/she needs to tell his/her partner. You don't need to share absolutely everything.

    As long as it's not getting in the way of your normal intimate life, I'd say,

    yeah but if your partner wants to join in, they don't necessarily need to join in every time, but why would someone not want them to join in sometimes?

    i know my hubby watches porn, he knows I watch porn. Its always when the other one is out of the house. I really dont see anything wrong with it tbh. Never understood the women who have major problems with it. Its harmless

    I don't think being married/in a relationship/single makes any difference. Watching porn/*kitten* is very healthy and helps people to understand what stimulates them. This in turn can help relationships.

    I don't see anything wrong in watching porn without your partner. I would be surprised and perhaps even confused if I found out my partner had not watched any porn alone since we had been together.

    Some couples might want to watch porn together or tell each other about what they've been watching, others might prefer to keep this to themselves, either way I think this is normally very healthy.

    Everythin in moderation. As long as it doesn't take the place of dealing in a relationship it is ok. Besides where do you thin us guys learn all of our moves, LMAO
