His absolute favorite (mine too for that matter) you cant even see the man or the womans face or much of their bodies and there is no genital to genital contact during the whole clip. I am the one that reaps the benefit of him being turned on. The more he is turned on the more I get mine. I by no means think he is bored of me. We have different libidos sure but when he comes to me and holds me and kisses me and tells me how much he wants me...When he lets me know on a daily basis that he desires me and its through his actions as well as his words... Im sure he is sincere and not just some man pig out for a joy ride. I accept that.
The reason I hear/read more than any other about women not wanting their men to watch porn seems to be that they think they should be enough for their man. The one an only. Women don't like to think that something or someone else could possibly turn their men on. It COULD be jealousy. I understand the concept but dont understand how it comes to pass. A man is who he is regardless of his relationship status. He doesnt stop thinking and feeling how he does just because a woman comes into his life. It would seem that he opens himself up to accept his partner as his priority and revels in her above all others but it doesnt change the fact that he is who he is or was when he met his partner.
Even with this opinion, it doesnt change the fact that if porn or any other type of behavior is hurtful or offensive it should be discussed. Maybe, as suggest by others, there can be some kind of compramise or agreement reached. If its out of control or if it is interfering with life and relationship it should be treated. Lots of communication, maybe some therapy, things of this nature.
I commend the OP for taking time to think about it. Stepping back to cautiously watch and wait to see how things go. Sometimes the initial knee jerk reaction exacerbates what could be a minor sit down and talk about it bump in the road.
