    We seem to do it all the time, we even have special rooms for certain bodily functions. We call them bathrooms or toilets :D

    As a man I whip it out anywhere if no one's looking......but then :rolleyes:

    Lots of posters have pointed out that if their partner watching porn was negatively affecting their sex life they'd have a problem. Totally get that. For me it's a stage further - it would negatively affect my sex life with my partner if she objected to porn !!
    I wouldn't expect her to like if I was watching it solo on a daily basis. I would however consider it normal to watch stuff together, enjoying fantasy and finding new things that turn on the other. If she found that weird it would probably be a deal breaker for me.

    But what do people object too I can't understand. Is it some kind of misguided jealousy thing or what?

    Isn't the internet great for so many? The internet gave porn to the pornless. I'm going back to food. It's much better.:D

    Possibly - but I would see insecurity as being a bigger issue.

    Every woman I've ever been with has, to my knowledge. I don't think it's nearly as rare among women as people seem to assume, they're just not necessarily as comfortable openly discussing it as lads are. Regardless, I have no problem with it, and I regard having a problem with it as basically a form of 'thought crime' to be honest.

    As a 16 year old a long time ago. I worked in a large factory and after tea break in the morning when you were supposed to start work again. There was a steady stream of men going to the toilets for half an hour with a porn mag stuffed down their overalls.

    They used to swap them among themselves throughout the factory of around 1000 men.

    The things in those mags for a 16 year old certainly made me grow up fast:D

    Mary Millington......shame she died so young.

    So basically all men look at some kind of porn.

    I have never met a single guy in my life who has said he'd have a problem with his GF watching porn. I wouldn't have the remotest problem with it either, quite the opposite.

    I have heard women saying this upsets them. I'm surprised that this bothers anyone. Porn is a part of life; I wouldn't break-up with someone over their dislike of my seeing porn, but I'd judge them a little, if they really needed to be involved every single time I had any sexual experience, even alone?

    Give me a break... literally give me a break. It's my body, I do what I want with it in private. Just like everyone else.

    How can you be insecure about your partner looking at an anonymous image? Unless you know the participants, but that makes it more interesting.

    My best friend's sister rang him one day, ranting down the phone about how her husband was disgusting and a pervert because she caught him watching porn that was "unnatural". She was so visceral in her reaction that he was thinking to himself "Jesus, it must have been kids or animals he was looking at".
    But after teasing it out with her, it turned out it was just a FFM threesome, which I think most people would consider pretty "normal", as porn goes.

    She's a young enough woman (late twenties) so I was surprised at how strong her reaction was. But she's also very narcissistic, so perhaps the idea of him looking at someone else jarred with her world view.

    Personally, I have no problem with it. My wife doesn't watch it but we've sometimes watched it together and enjoyed it. If she did watch it I'd hope she'd tell me about it, though :pac:

    I only watch porn if people are being hurt. Consensually of course. Does that make me a bad person :p

    How do you know you are watching too much porn ?

    Look she has a new tatoo


    Why do wimmins look at porn?

    To see if they get married at the end


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,641 ✭✭✭GarIT


    or acting exactly as people do in porn because I agree that porn sex is not like real life sex

    I see a lot of people say this and I have never understood it. My sex is exactly like porn, if it wasn't I'd get bored of it very fast. I see something I try it, past partners have enjoyed it.

    Couldn't care less. Sure hasn't everyone watched porn at some point.

    So you purposely position your bodies to ensure the penetration is captured by the camera angle?

    Or are you a taxi driver who frequently picks up women who have forgotten their purse and need to arrange an alternative method of payment?

    Couldn't be more right. I watch porn all the time and use the positions from watching it, it's the best way to keep sex exciting. Who wants to **** in the same boring missionary position all the time? Porn is great.

    I think he meant normal porn, not strange unrealistic scenarios, I watch a lot of homemade porn. And in the professional porn, it's usually the cameraman that walks around filming the act from different angles and not the actors.

    Don't care if my OH does it. As long as it doesn't negatively impact our sex life, it's not something I'd even think about. It would have been nice if he'd wiped his history off of my tablet though

    So long as he wiped everything else off your tablet :D

    Elect a clown... Expect a circus

    Very few things that bothers me. Porn definitely isn't one of them.

    I'm not talking about position exactly but more like the guy always has to finish on her/their faces or that she's blowing him like she's going to vomit.

    I'm a man and I have never understood that.

    Bukakke is supposed to origin in Japan or somewhere.

    Men actually pay to go to such parties..... so i'm told:P

    Jeez how long was the taxi ride?

    Does this actually happen? A woman pays her fare this way? (honest answers please as looking for future employment).

    But I have seen one of my mates grow a bad addiction towards it. Between that and alcohol he's really difficult to be around now. You can't walk down the street without him quite aggressively talking about what he "wants to do" to girls walking by. Every few seconds. Some of it's fairly dark and I'm not sure he even realises himself how annoying it is. I think that it's a mindset that has come from too much porn over the years. He used to be a good friend, we're not sure what to do, because he's watching more (and drinking more) out of frustration of not finding a girl that's interested in him. It's a bit of a bad descent but I hope he gets a balance back on track.

    That...actually does set off a couple of alarm bells. Obviously, only have what you wrote there, but he sounds like he's in a bad place that's affecting him negatively and ..depending on various other factors, such as if he's more of a talker than a doer, so to speak, could hurt someone else. He sounds so fixiated on just "getting" a woman, like in a porn film, that the women he passes on the street are just objects to satisfy him rather than people. Not saying he can't tell the difference or anything, but that's a bloody unhealthy mindset and could be dangerous (IF other factors are there, like his being likely to act on it). Either way, I wouldn't like to be in the position of meeting this guy in a potential more-than-just-social way as a woman, knowing that his mindset around women and sex is that...well, warped. I hope for his sake (and hypothetical potential partners sakes) that he can clear his head up.

    Btw, although the above might imply it, I don't strictly mean rape. Just...that whole attitude is deeply poisoned and could harm himself and someone else.

    I dunno. You know him better than I do, but something about all that thoroughly creeps me out.

    I'd say it's mostly the insecurity issue, the fear of "why isn't he satisfied with me, what am I doing wrong, does he prefer that to sex?" One partner feels left out and worried that it "means" something when the porn-watching partner doesn't intend anything of the sort. Although others might object because of the dodgier elements around the porn industry, so ethical grounds, I guess.

    Others might well be freaked out at finding the midget clown porn.

    I think those insecure people would be upset about their partners watching anything including the footie. So there isnt any hope unless they get treatment.

    :D Never seen it but I honestly think I wouldn't be able to stop laughing.

    Everything in moderation, meaning the only time I'd have a problem with porn is that if I felt it was getting more attention than I was.

    Also, why do men always think that women all watch that awful porn aimed at women? I don't want to hear about love in porn 😂😂😂


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,759 ✭✭✭Winterlong


    It's when your partner appears in porn that things become a problem.

    This. Like Oscar in Intermission, I just want to see people fcuking. A plot is surplus to requirements.
