Is it norm to watch porn?

SunofaBeach14

Oh FFS. Let's see, is it normal to enjoy sex, and enjoy watching attractive people have sex?

That's the question?

Seriously?

It is, in fact, the question.

Sooooo, what's your answer?

Huh? Oh. Come check this video out. I'm kinda feeling sorry for the octopus. Oh, and get me a glass of wine while you're up, please.

I watch it for the articles

randomtai

much prefer to star then watch

Ditto. :smokin:

I don't understand why this is a problem. It would be one thing if he locked himself in a room all day watching it, and didn't interact with you, then I could understand someone being upset by that.

If he/she wants to rub one out and needs a little visual stimulation- than by all means. I would rather he do that then go find another person to scratch the itch because his wife tells him hands off.

besides- you can learn new moves, techniques watching it

michellemybelll

yes. it's fine. whether married or not, and whether with or without you.

yes, we're all adults and you can type out "sexual".

and yes, this thread's title makes me happy with its Friday rhyming skills. :happy:

Quite often, my wife and I will be downstairs relaxing, enjoying a cocktail after dinner, when, all of the sudden whe will get up and head for the stairs. She will turn around and ask, "What color?"

That's code for "What color lingerie would you like?"

She goes upstairs to change and that's my prompt to freshen our cocktails and then go behind the bar to the hidden cabinet and pick out a "Training Film" and, possibly, some toys.

It's perfectly normal at our home.

THAT is awesome. cheers to you and your wonderful sounding partner good sir! :drinker:

but it's assonance... she got the rhyme wrong. :bigsmile:



Am I the only person who's seen "Educating Rita"? I'm guessing yes, because there's not even that many Brits here. But that film totally taught me the meaning of the word "assonance" :bigsmile:

Yeah. I agree. I really like assonance.

My wife used to watch a ton of porn before she and I met...

I don't watch porn...never have enjoyed watching someone else get busy when I could just be getting busy myself.

I assume my wife doesn't watch it now either, but even if she did it wouldn't be an issue...whether I knew or not, makes no difference.

I know this is the minority opinion, but I think its wrong and immoral. It objectifies women (and to a certain extent men), it presents sex in an unrealistic fashion, it decreases our sensitivities to deviant/abnormal sexual behaviors, and most of all it denigrates the meaning of sex to a mere activity instead of an expression of deep affection between husband and wife. Additionally, some people become addicted to it (much like a drug addiction) and it ruins those people's relationships sometimes for good. I believe it is one of the factors contributing to the general moral decline of our society.
Now I know, based on the comments on this thread, that most of the people here disagree but I felt I needed to speak out.

There's nothing wrong with outlandish German water sports midget tranny porn....oh and girl on girl is good too.

srslybritt

If it's not an addiction or something he tries to hide, whatever. If that's what he's into.

I watch porn. There's nothing wrong with it. I'd rather my SO watch porn and jerk off at home instead of cheating on me.

serious question: have you ever studied the behaviour of bonobos? (Pan paniscus - a species of chimpanzee)

Groovyca2022

Yes, it is normal.

Lol, it's the only way to climb trees.

Unlike the chimps their lovers not fighters.

I watch/read porn when my husband travels. My husband watches porn when he travels. We watch porn together when we're both home. If both people are on the same page about it, there's nothing wrong with it. We've been married for over 10 years now with no signs of that comming to an end anytime soon.

miss_jessiejane

Watching it at home alone or with your partner/giant love doll? Yes.

Watching it in a crowded shopping mall with a mannequin from The Gap? No.

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?

why does your girlfriend have a designated hitter? is she the manager of a softball team? :huh:

The DH is more detrimental to baseball than porn is to people.

True story.

vmclach

Yeah it's completely normal.. Is this a joke?

Your version of normal is defined by you. You might not have a very popular opinion here but if this this is how you feel, stick with it.

gelendestrasse

If it's a compulsion you can't control it's an addiction and has to stop. Porn could be a gateway to worse things in that case. If it's less than that then I guess it's up to the couple to decide if it's within the boundaries of their relationship. I know some couples where it's OK. I know a lot more where it wouldn't be. They have to work it out between themselves.

Watching it at home alone or with your partner/giant love doll? Yes.

Watching it in a crowded shopping mall with a mannequin from The Gap? No.

So why does this remind me of the movie Serenity?

"It was a very beautiful ceremony. Lenore wrote her own vows. I cried. Like a baby. A hungry, angry baby." (speaking about his robotic wife)

that definition of normal renders the word normal meaningless...... but anyway, no-one has to do anything sexual that they don't want to do, that's totally their right. It's the judging what others do and labelling it as stuff "abnormal" or "immoral" that people will take issue with.

Now you know what she's doing all day instead of cleaning.

Videos do give young people unrealistic expectations of how quickly plumbers, copier repair people, cable installers, and pizza delivery people will respond to a call.
