I'm not aware of my DH watching porn. Maybe he does, but I don't know about it! I don't really want him to, because it's an industry that I really don't support. You can always read pornographic stories instead. Dirty versions of fairytales are pretty fun
He also grew up in East Germany, and I have a feeling that if he did something as naughty as watching porn, he'd have to go punish himself (think Dobby in HP), LOL.
(No, not really, people.)

I voted for the first choice.
I'm okay with it now but I didn't used to be. The fact is that most men are visual creatures when it comes to sex. To the PP that said "why not read dirty stories"... I think women like reading dirty stories or erotica but it doesn't have the same appeal to men.
Another solution: make your own porn together. I'm not sure if MH watches other porn now, and I don't really care. I know that sometimes he looks at videos or pictures that we've made together, and that's fine by me (but I don't like looking at them... makes me too self-conscious).
I chose I'm not a huge fan but it doesn't bother me too much. Really the only reason I don't like him watching porn is because it gives him unrealistic expectations of sex. I think that's a common complaint about the porn industry in general. It doesn't really bother me *too* much that he's watching other girls because I know they're porn stars and get paid for what they do.
He hasn't watched porn much since we got together so I'm not too concerned about it.
Men are visual creatures. In general, women are not.
I do enjoy porn on occasion, and I really couldn't care less if DH watches it. I watch it without him, sometimes

Lol, my best friend and I watched Paris Hilton's sex tape together. Hey, we were curious!
7/30/12 - B/G twins born at 33w4d due to PPROM
I voted that I'm fine with it, as long as I watch it with him.
On very rare occasions.
Ugggh wasn't it completely boring?

"Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is a little like expecting the bull not to attack you because you are a vegetarian." --Dennis Wholey
No, it doesn't. I never said "everyone" gets addicted, and I would never say anything close to what you are implying I would. I personally know several people who have struggled with this and it has affected my life and those of people close to me. Maybe I shouldn't have said "more often than not", but it is just as ignorant for you to compare my statement to ignorant absolute statements which are totally not on the same level.
And just because not everyone gets addicted does not mean that it does not subtly affect their expectations of the women in their life - I still don't like it, whether there is an addiction or not. I recognize I have no proof of this, but I respect your opinion, and I would ask you to respect mine.
A quick google search turned up quite a few studies suggesting just that - that pornorgraphy can be more addicting then coccaine or heroin. And of these few studies that came up (I am careful typing the word pornography into my search engine, so I didn't do a lot of researching) none of them were done by so-called religious freaks. Most were done by university professors, pychologists, people associated with the US Senate, etc, etc....
