Yeah just keep telling yourself that IzzyIsBusy

Both are a masturbatory aid where the user is fantasising about someone who isn't their partner.

Don't want it in my home and wouldn't tolerate it tbh, no need for it past the age of 15 lol.

I see so many women on here trying their best to be cool about something that both upsets them and makes them feel crap, all to appease a man, just stupid imo, a relationship involves 2 people and if 1 aint happy, then address it and if porn is more important than your partners feelings, get rid basically.

Not all men do it especially the regular users, to me, they have a problem, and it usually impacts badly on being intimate with their own partner.

And as for the industry as a whole, even in 2016 women are still being abused, manipulated, forced, all for the man's viewing pleasure, I just find the whole subject distasteful.

But books dont use real life people who can be exploited and used in all manner of ways.
Using your imagination to get off is nowhere near the same as watching porn.

Noooooooo not for me. If I found that he would be out.

However don't listen to me. I'm insecure, confused, jelouse, uneducated and just not a good role model for this kind of advice.

Even supposedly "ethical" porn studios have been found to be allowing coercion and rape on their sets (see James Deen). I don't believe there's such a thing as ethical pornography while women still don't have the same economic power men do -- they are economically coerced even when they're not directly physically coerced. As long as men claim to "need" porn, they'll "need" a steady stream of economically disenfranchised women and we won't achieve economic equality.

Well said Womb, the cold hard truth of it all; rather than the entertainment platform it's portrayed as being.

I watch it alone and with my partner. He watches it alone.

We enjoy amateur porn and I like Erika Lust productions.

The last thing my partner watches is the fake sex, glass shoes and pneumatic football boobs kind of porn. It turns him off completely.

Real people in everyday scenarios. All ages and sizes. That's what we enjoy. We watch our own videos too.
