Is watching porn cheating?

[Guoy Darko]

Well, I've seen this question almost everywhere, but I can't seem to find it on sosuave.net.

Do you consider it cheating? Do you still watch porn when you're having a girlfriend? etcetera.

I was just wondering what you guys (and girls) think.

Since you're asking an ethical question, I'll give you an ethical answer:

You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.' But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

That said, you're not actually married to her. Maybe you should ask your girlfriend what she thinks?
I don't really approve of porn, but if you're not married, I wouldn't call it cheating...technically.
It's still not real good for you, tho.

Pft, I don't consider it cheating no way.

Screw that, if my woman can't satisfy my sexual drive that I have to go watch porn, it's not cheating at all.

interesting perspective

Its not cheating.

 

[Guoy Darko]

Dr. Phill thinks it's cheating. But I do not take him really serious.......

How is porn cheating?

If I watch a movie about a murder, am I an accomplice?

Some of you guys are really hung up on sex.

 

[Obsidian]

A better analogy would be if you watched a movie that caused you to hate someone and desire to kill them.

 

[Guoy Darko]

Obsidian, do you ever watch porn?

 

[PhatE1vis]

True. I was being facetious with the murder remark; however, I see nothing wrong with porn if it's not affecting your partner. Other things can be equally harmful to a relationship (video game obsession, drug abuse, etc.). I just think many people assign some special status to porn because it involves sex.

 

[Obsidian]

Obsidian, do you ever watch porn?

never in video format. Have looked at some still porn on some occasions, but I really try to avoid it.
There are some threads about it on this forum (along with threads about excessive masturbation).

 

[Guoy Darko]

Yes, most guys think it's not cheating, but almost everybody who thinks it's cheating are women....... except from Dr. Phill or Jesus Christ.

If that is considered cheating then all the chick flicks that are surronded by "romance" themes, should be considered cheating as well.

What "Anal Fever 3" does to me, they do the exact same thing for her when she watches "The Notebook" or "Titanic".

She starts fingerbanging herself?

It floats their juices that is why they love watching those movies. What do you think Danielle Steele novels are all about? its soft porn for women. Men are visual creatures that is why we can't read that crap but we carry a "playboy" around with us.

It's cheating if it's outside the agreed (or to some degree implied) parameters of your relationship. If she walked in on you watching porn, what would you do? The answer to that question answers your question.

I never discussed it with her. And to be honest, I wouldn't watch it if she was here. She's gone now for two weeks. But somehow I feel guilty. For the first time. :nervous:

I know a girl who broke up w/ her BF because he was watching pr0n on her computer when she wasn't around. Creepy.

Creepy because she broke up with him for that reason, or creepy because he was watching porn on HER computer?

 

[Bonhomme]

His watching porn on her computer was clear enough evidence of mental impairment to be breakup-worthy, especially if she had any intention of breeding.

Dr. Phill thinks it's cheating.

If that doesn't solidify my "no" answer ...
Anyhow, I'm a bit surprised. I'd have expected him to think it's cheating if the man does it, but not if the woman does it.
