The wife/GF says it's either a choice, lack a discipline or an addiction that needs to be broken...But if someone is overweight, doesn't it fall under one of these categories? Just wanted to stir the drama-pot; looking forward to your insights.
Would it be right for the woman to look at porn because the man has gained weight or otherwise let himself go? It goes both ways...women are visual, sexual creatures too.

I watch it before dates, it makes the dates better because now I can actually focus on what she is saying versus trying to score. Women seem to me more aggressive when you dont try to have sex with them. I dont know why. Porn can be a tool. In the microwave, cell phone, internet era, whatever you crave at that moment in time you can have. Women that have an issue with porn have an issue with themselves. Women like sex, but dont want to be viewed as objects. Its complex to a degree.
Could the argument be extended to FWB?
Getting laid on a regular basis takes the pressure off dating because one does not
feel as much as a need to have sex with the woman one is getting to know.

She has the right to be offended, he has the right to tell her to stuff it and vice versa.

This is just one of many topics that need to be worked out between the couple in question and there is no one correct answer.

Alot of you have missed the point of the OP......being overweight/obese is an addiction just like the porn. Either 1) addicted to overeating 2) addicted to a sedentary lifestyle....or a combination of the two.

I ignored it because I don't think that whether or not a person is overweight has a bearing on whether the other person looks at others or not.

In fact, I hear women look too--they just think they're more subtle about it.

Oh I agree, I was just pointing out the point he was trying to make.

Depends on what the other person can tolerate. Just because someone has another type of addiction doesn't mean they should treat all addictions equally.

Take the porn out of the equation and replace it with drugs or alcohol. Does the same logic apply to those situations?

Eh...

Unless the porn is stopping him from ALL of his other priorities, its not an addiction.
If the only thing he is ignoring is her because of porn, he's just not into her anymore.

Hey if you've got a mile-wide ass, your hubby is fantasizing about that little bikini girl at the beach with the go-go dancer body he saw over the weekend. He's got a mental picture and is thinking about it every chance he gets when he and his free hand are alone... Sorry fat chicks, it's true.

It amazes me how so many women let their bodies go after they get married, and then complain about this. Hey here's a wild idea... GET OFF Yer FAT ARSE AND DO SOMETHING! Stretch, do ONE Mod cut: situp...ugh... that's right... huff.. huff.. ok time for that cola and poundcake.
