You could sample the wares of a new one each and everytime your little heart desired AND no being tied down. No one would be yelling at you about this or that, clearly a much more diserable way of life for you.

Why bother with the complication of a wife?
You might be surprised how many men on this forum would agree with you. One trip through a divorce court would make a believer out of many men.

Wow. I can't believe so many women are hating on porn. You can't take men's porn from them! It's too cruel!

I think women might feel intimidated by their SOs looking to more attractive women for arousal, leaving them feeling like they're not good enough. But unless he's choosing porn OVER you, I don't see why this has to be an issue.
However, the OP's question did offend me slightly for that very reason. A man doesn't get the right to look at porn because his SO is overweight, he always had that right. She doesn't get the right to be mad, but I can understand why she might feel that way if he's looking at porn BECAUSE she's overweight. Hell, I'd feel pretty bad if that happened to me. I think negative emotions often come across as anger when they're really something very different.

Lindsey was probably being sarcastic with this comment, but I was thinking, hell yeah, she knows exactly what us guys want/like/desire!

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.
I'm gonna be hated for this one but;

If a guy get's together with a fit girl, and she then puts on 60 lbs of flab he has every freaken right to watch as much porn as he likes.

and even otherwise i'd see no problem with my girlfriend massaging her muffin on her own, so why should she have any problem with me keeping my sword sharp?

I know some overweight women who are sexy, its the way they carry themselves,
Men will look at porn and so will women, it dont matter what your mate looks like

Lindsey_Mcfarren,
Sarcasm or not. Like you said, it’s way cheaper in the long run for men plus less drama, more freedom, etc.

The complications involved in a marriage and looking at porn are two different things. My own thought is that if you HAVE to look at porn because you are not finding your mate sexually compelling its time for changes because whatever the attractive quotient be it isnt working. Perhaps someone needs to look in a mirror and say, "my god I have let myself go", maybe someone needs to step back and realize that they have been unavailable, maybe its just gone and time to move on. For my own self I will not be with someone that does not get my motor revving. She deserves better and so do I.

once a man has seen a pair of boobies, he wants to see them all. we just appreciate the female form enough that we are willing to sacrifice our time to look at it.

fat/skinny/short/tall SO has nothing to do with it. it boils down to animal instinct, men evolved to mate with all eligible females and though we now are monotonous, i mean monogamous, we still like to look.

i am very satisfied with my wife, our sex life is great, yet i still like to look at porn every now and then. and yeah, my wife is a little overweight but so am i. both of us have gained a good 75# since when we first started dating, but then again that was 17 years ago. i love her body as much today as i did when she still fit in a size 2 cheerleading outfit.


if someone exclusviely watches porn, to the point of actually pushing away their SO, then their are other underlying issues that should be taken care of. the wife should ask herself if she is giving him reason to look at it or if he has an actual addiction to porn. more than likely the answer would be a little bit of both.
