How Porn Has Affected Our Relationship
Quote From: shmayboIt's not just on the internet. It is the waitress with the short skirt, the nurse at the hospital, the therapist herself, the massage parlors who do more than massage the back, it's the commercials on television, the music videos, etc. I don't get it. Porn has affected my relationship but it's everywhere, so it's not like you can get away from it. If I had a choice between having him look at porn every once in awhile and cheating on me, I would pick to look at porn because I don't think it is the same thing. It is a visual and there is nothing wrong with looking. It is the acting out part that bothers me.
I am bored and these message boards don't talk about the issue at hand. It's more like a chat room in here. Hasn't anyone heard of Yahoo Messenger? Or maybe....oh, I don't know, a phone? Actually, we do discuss the issue at hand just obviously not in a manner that pleases you. Porn is everywhere, you're right, and that's mostly thanks to the internet. The popularity of internet pornography has desensitized us to the point that pornography is filtering down into mainstream media including prime time television and big studio movies. If this doesn't bother you, I'm not sure why you're complaining about the discussions of this board. If you were looking, however, for a place to celebrate the "virtues" of pornography or looking for like-minded individuals who naively believe that porn is some kind of necessary evil and a deterent to cheating, you've definitely come to the wrong place. I wonder how you would feel if you were in the mood for sex, had gussied yourself up for it, and lay in bed waiting anxiously for your husband, only to find him at the computer jerking off to porn instead. Many of the women who post here have had this exact experience. You're lucky if you haven't although, I must say, if you allow your husband to continue to look at internet pornography, you may some day have this experience. Perhaps then you'll find a need for this board. Until then, I wish you luck with your tolerance of it.
