Why would a man rather watch porn if he has a ready and willing woman? (addiction, men)

[PeaceAndLove42]

Thankfully this has never been an issue for me, but I have heard time and time again from women that, even though they would be very happy to have sex with their bf/husband they'd still rather watch porn. I never understood this, wouldn't actually having sex with a woman be more pleasurable than watching fake women on some porn site?

Some "experts" believe that extreme porn use can become addictive and can result in unsatisfying real life sexual experiences. I don't know how accurate that info is.

It's an addiction. It's not a rational thing.

Yeah, I personally believe internet porn is one of the worst things that have really messed a lot of men up. They get some weird ideas/views from it and think women can do that/look like that. Of course guys won't admit it. True porn has been around forever, but there is a HUGE difference between a guy looking at some porno mags/pictures in the past and today where you can find numerous free videos of every kind of genre and sub-genre of porn there is. There are lots of guys into cartoon porn for crying out loud

My daughter has told me her bf hates porn and never watches it and I contribute a lot of that to him being a good respectable man that has healthy ideas of sex and treats her right. I would never date a man that watches porn, I don't care if he says he only watches it a little, it's me or the porn.

Aside from an addiction, I imagine sometimes they just want to yanky their wankies without worrying about their performance or how a partner feels.

As long as the woman is sexually satisfied I don't see the problem. Its only a problem if the guy is using the porn instead of satisfying her. Some guys like myself do both.

Your daughter's boyfriend ought to put up a hidden camera facing the computer for when she is gone. I'll take money at 110-1 odds, the guy watches porn. All men like to look at women, those who say otherwise, either have no testosterone left in their body, or they are really good liars.

It still cracks me how everyone on this forum always takes the almighty high road....."not me"

There is so much porn out there today, BECAUSE THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE WATCHING IT!

Personally all a little porn ever did for me, was make me want to attack my girlfriend. Most didn't care as long as I kept coming for them.

What ruins a good man for a good woman along the sex issue..... is not looking at stuff. It's doing it in real life. That's when the line is crossed.

I had an ole friend who was married to a pretty woman and he loved her. He went away to Germany once for his business and visited the FKK men's clubs while over there. He came home a changed man. He bragged to me about how he could have sex with cover model grade women and how they did anything and everything and many were VERY sexual. It ruined his sex life with his wife and they later divorced. He became so addicted to these women, he travels there 4-6 times a year. I looked it up once and as a man, I'll admit, the women in those clubs are incredibly beautiful and the fact that they'll do anything for you is appealing. But even I have a moral compass and will never pay for sex. But look at porn and get revved up for my girl? I'll do that and it works!

Depends on the woman and how attracted said man is to her. Porn can be a substitute for a quicky if the woman isn't willing to do one, but most of the time I think guys would prefer the real think. I know I would.

Porn watching is a voyeurustic activity so it trains the watcher to become more of a voyeur than a participator.

I'm going to project a little and venture a guess that the quality of the relationship has a lot to do with it.

In the past - before the internet became a mass medium - I have settled for dreadfully unsatisfactory partners; if the internet had existed at the time, I would generally have preferred to watch porn than to have sex with my partner.

Now that I have the most wonderful partner in the world ; I have zero desire to look at porn.
