Mid 30s/F.
Its not often but when I do masturbate I put on porn to get it done quickly, sort of thing
I enjoy things with my husband that I watch in porn but I've realised that something done very consensually with a husband is not the same as an actress with an actor.
And I don't like the things I'm watching, it's progressing into more extreme things, as I know porn does
I'm very embarrassed as I am very much a feminist at heart and this is like an awful secret I feel weighing heavily on me. I feel AWFUL and like I'm letting the side down :(
Its just so easy and quick. That sounds bloody disgusting doesn't it.
I'm just writing this thread as accountibility to myself to stop
Feminism: chat
I want to stop watching porn.

I did the same last year OP. Good for you. It felt wrong and I know how frought with exploitation and abuse the industry is. Couldn't ignore the ethics any longer.
Erotic literature is a helpful replacement, and there is some very realistic animated material produced these days if you can get into that.

I have a similar problem. A straight guy in mid 30's and I find that I always just want to look at something simple, not hard-core but it always tends to want to see the next thing.
Keen on help

I secretly also enjoy porn, but have not watched for years since discovering erotic fiction. Some of it is so explicit it really is a great substitute for porn.

If you're only watching to "get it done quickly" how about just a little buzzing vibrator? Just something that feels different and certainly gets it done quickly?
