Well the thing about porn for me is that I get too involved in the story. The acting is so terrible that it hinders my ability to enjoy any of it. Just my 2 cents... Great blog!

Amen, Stephanie.. lol

I've watched it before, really hate it now.. just makes men look like pimp daddies and women look like whores lol My boyfriend loves women (although I trust him with all my heart) but if he is ever caught watching porn or anything similar... I am raising Hell.

you kids are funny. Porn can be cheating. Not a physical but an emotional cheat; so I agree with you. Some guys watch porn 'cause their girl wont do all the dirty things that you would you Steph. and Some guys arent confident enough to get a descent, respectful, good looking person. So don't hate on those that cant get some. Women love it too ;)

Hey thanks for your input guys ! (:

to Yuta: yep, im aware women watch porn too, but as i said above.
"im not hating towards people & friends who do watch it, its your life, do whatever the shit you please.
im just saying the only person that really matters to me, would be the boyfriend."
so no, im not hating on those that cant "get any ".

as long as the boyfriend is out of that bandwagon im all good.

oh and,
"you kids are funny" seems a bit rude.

its just others posting their opinions and experiences, no need for phrases like that. (:

"Listener Peter" is very much an adult, and a very helpful & likable individual.

Show me a man that says he doesn't watch porn, and I'll show you a man that's lying to you.

thats an article for people who have NEVER watched porn,
im not saying my boyfriend didnt,
he just wont WHILE being with me.

& if youre implying that men wont EVER give up porn, thats just unbelievable, because there are stronger feelings out there than just "10 minute sexy-time" , i know a few guys who either dislike porn, dont need it, or like the boyfriend; just wont watch it because it bothers me, and he loves me enough to want to keep me happy.
(as cliche as that sounds) haha

anyway, with a steady stream of surprise naughty pictures and both having high sexual needs , there really isnt room for porno ~

sure, chuck, almost everyone's SEEN porn, but it doesn't mean everyone LIKES it. i've seen it, and never really thought it was anything special... actually, my own personal idea of hell's very similar to the whole porn environment; men and women wasting their bodies away for the entertainment of individuals in a sleazy setting, devoid of any of the real emotions that keep our humanity in tact... i mean, i know i'm generalizing the porn industry, but the point is that it's pretty easy to see how it can be unappealing.

...and i agree with stephanie's last comment, especially that last sentence, haha.

The only problem I have with porn. There's not enough of it in full HD. ROFLcopter!

But umm no. It's not something any guy is giving up. Feelings have nothing to do with 10-minute sexy time. Your boyfriend will still love you after 60-minute sexy time. But the thing is, you're not always around to cater to a guy's every raunchy or debauched fantasy.

That's where works of art like 2 Girls 1 Cup come in handy. Someone up there just said that if you watch porn, you must not be getting any. Not true. It has nothing to do with confidence. It's hard wired into our brains to be thinking about fucking. Literally every other though.

Your boyfriend "giving up" porn is all well and admirable. But hell, it's an easy thing to lie about because you have a slim to none chance of catching him with his pants down. Pun intended. And with this thing known as the internet, there's also no porn stash to be found. Yes, I am saying your boyfriend could be lying to you. Because truth of the matter is, it might not be as big of a deal to him as it is to you.

Some also tried to argue that's it's an erosion of our humanity. Don't try to philosophize it as an evil. What's evil is conservative America demonizing human sexuality. Something that is definitely natural and healthy. Monetizing that into a business doesn't change that. In fact, porn was always meant to be a tool to facilitate sexy time between a couple. To put them in the mood so to speak. The only time porn stops becoming appealing to a man, is when he finds out that his baby is a daughter. The only concession I will make in favor of your argument is that porn objectifies women and reduces them to pieces of meat and that's unfortunate.

Porn I think can totally be used as an abstinence tool. I'd much rather have my kids chaffing his/her hands to ten minutes of porn then to deal with 18 years of misery that comes with an unplanned baby. QED.

im sorry you have such low standards towards men and their ability towards quitting "porn".
if youre in such an addiction to it yourself, you shouldnt stamp everyone else as being the same clone of you.
every individual is different, and i KNOW that my boyfriend would never, and wont, and he doesnt.

there may not be alot of guys in the world that would turn their heads away from porn, but its unfair to assume there isnt at all.
i know a few people that dislike it & dont need it, whatever their reason for it may be.
i may only know less than a handful of guys who can say that, but all the respect to them.

porn isnt wrong, watch it if you please. but please dont assume you know anything about my relationships and such, within my love life.
you dont know him at all, and its wrong to assume anything of anyone, especially when it comes to personal decisions and moral standards.

"Some also tried to argue that's it's an erosion of our humanity. Don't try to philosophize it as an evil. What's evil is conservative America demonizing human sexuality."

you completely missed my point (assuming you were talking about me). My point wasn't that porn is an "erosion of our humanity," those were MY views on porn. I don't expect everyone else to share them, or even to see them. I'm not a missionary here telling everyone what they're doing is "wrong"... my sole point was that it shouldn't be difficult to see how porn could be unappealing for people, and therefore, very easy to give up, or to not even begin with in the first place. that said, you, viet, and the rest of humanity can do whatever you want to, with no arguments from me. You're not wrong in enjoying it, and I'm not right in not enjoying it, it's just personal preference. The simple point that I was trying to make is that there ARE people out there (men) who just aren't into it.

You're making this personal now in assuming that I have an addiction or am labeling anyone else. I'm making reasonable opinions based on studies and facts academia has put forth. Just because I think guys lie about not watching porn doesn't mean my standards are low. It just means I disagree with you.

Writing that you know in all caps doesn't make it anymore more true than if you didn't. Because you can't know someone better than they know themselves. Your rock like faith in someone may in fact be well grounded, but you aren't with someone 24-7. The true test of a persons character is what they think and do when there isn't anyone around to judge or listen.

I'm just playing the devil's advocate. The opposing argument is just as compelling as yours. I'd be willing to bet that I'm actually in the minority opinion.

"You're making this personal now in assuming that I have an addiction or am labeling anyone else. I'm making reasonable opinions based on studies and facts academia has put forth. Just because I think guys lie about not watching porn doesn't mean my standards are low. It just means I disagree with you."

you didn't list an "opinion" about her bf, you made a pretty strong accusation when you said, "Yes, I am saying your boyfriend could be lying to you." if anyone started making it personal in all of this, it was you by commenting on someone very close to her in such a cynical way with absolutely no ideas about who he is. if you truly believe that THAT wasn't making a personal attack, you should read more into the basics of socializing from your "academia."

to clarify, i see your opinion that people lie about watching porn, but again, it was made personalized when you directed it SPECIFICALLY towards her bf. also, her accusation that you may be a porn addict wasn't completely unjustified. from your first post, i also assumed the same thing from your first sentence, "the only problem I have with porn. There's not enough of it in full HD." if you don't want to come off as a porn freak, don't sound like one.

Viet, feel free to list statistics, do research, whatever, anything.

but keep the boyfriend out of your mouth, thanks.

Your feelings on this subject are pretty strong.

Would you really break up with your boyfriend, if you found out he watched porn on a regular basis?

as i said above,
" before i enter a relationship i make it clear that there will be no forgiveness towards certain things.
& porn is one of them. "

i wouldnt become his girlfriend in the first place, if he watches porn.

& for me, who sees Porn as a way of being "unfaithful",
would you, anonymous, let your bf/gf be "unfaithful" to you on a regular basis?

i hope not.
