    Porn preference bothers hubby

    This may seem trivial compared to some of the real problems some people have, but it's something that is bothersome to both my husband and to me. I have always been just about as perfectly bisexual as you can be. My husband knows I was with one female partner before we were married, but we are committed to a monogamous marriage. However, when we watch porn together I invariably like the girl-girl scenes, and he invariably tries to avoid them. It's like he's afraid it might trigger some big passion in me that I wont' be able to control or something - as if George Cloney hadn't already done that ten years ago! :-)

    Anyway, since he kind of avoids it I've kind of started pushing the envelope a little. I bought a CD that was strictly lesbian, and sure enough he wants nothing to do with watching it with me. He says he doesn't really like it, but I don't believe him. He also doesn't want to watch man-man porn with me, so at least he's consistent ;-)

    How do I make him know that his insecurity over this is not based on reality? By reacting with irritation it actually makes me want to watch it more - not in a vindictive way, but more in a "I'm going to be naughty" kind of way. Anyway, thoughts or suggestions?

    Hmm. I'd find the idea of my female partner liking lesbian porn to be a turn-on - it would at least provide the fantasy of a possible 3-some with her and another woman. I think a lot of men find lesbian porn exciting.

      Maybe he really doesn't care for it. Statistically, straight men prefer male/female porn over any other type, even girl on girl.

        Has he said why he doesn't like you watching lesbian porn, or are you guessing? Your guess may be right - but its possible that as sp346 says, he just doesn't happen to like it.
