Does your wife/husband/bf/gf let you watch porn?

Contributor: pleasurehunter pleasurehunter
I know a lot of men and women that aren't ok with each other watching porn and i'm just wondering why that is. My partner is ok with it as long as its not all the time. Personally im not the jealous type and don't see how it hurts in any way unless there are other issues involved. Does your partner let you watch porn?

I voted yes, but for us it's not really a case of letting the other watch it. If she wants to, that's fine. If I want to, that's fine, too.

We're the same way. If one of us wants to watch it we don't care.

In fact, we often watch it together

Sometimes, he is quite turned on to let me choose what we watch. He finds me naughty.

It's not a matter of 'let'. I watch-- and read-- what I want.

Yes! We watch it together on a pretty regular basis.

I wouldn't say 'let' is the right word, we both watch porn so neither of us cares.

My husband let's me do anything I please. We both encourage viewing porn.

I agree with those who posted before... "let" is really not the right word. Neither of us is the boss of the other because we're both adults, so there is no "letting" anyone do anything. I do watch it some, and we do watch it some together.

I voted yes, but with that caveat about the word "let".

My Man is happy I like to watch porn. I have no problem with him watching it (unless I wanted to join in and he already watched some before I got upstairs, then it is remedied by our watching some together.)

We often watch it together. We go through cycles of porn. We'll watch it nearly every day for a few weeks and then gradually get out of the habit, then weeks of not watching it later we'll be like, "Oh, yeah, we have porn! Let's watch some."

Pretty much this too.

She actually watches more porn than I do!

Neither my husband nor I watch porn (or read it) - but that is a decision we've made based upon our faith and we have made it for ourselves - there is no "letting" the other one do or not do it. We are both adults.

I did read porn some when we were first married and I found that it did not help our sex life at all - it hindered it because I was measuring us up to what I'd read. Why didn't it feel as great as the magazine said it would? (We were living at his parent's house and his stepdad had some porn magazines I'd stumbled across).

Anyway - it is a personal choice we've each made and for us it is basically "off the menu" of the things we like to do.

Of the two of us, I'd be the more likely one to watch porn because his view of it is, "Why do I want to look at something I can't have?" and he doesn't find it entertaining.

The closest that I would come to watching porn now if I were to watch it - would be if they still had the Playboy stripoffs I watched about 27 years ago (I'm sure they must). Now those I did enjoy because I like dance moves and dance movies.

But for us - porn is just something that isn't on our menu by our own choices.

Absolutely, and I let her watch porn as well, though neither of us are huge consumers.

He watches it and I watch it. In fact I watch it more than he does. It's not a 'he lets me watch' type thing. Even if he didn't want me watching it I would still watch it if I wanted it's not his place to say I can or I can't watch it. I am an adult and plus I pay for the internet. So just because we are married doesn't give him the right to say I can or I can't watch something. Just like I can't tell him he can or can't watch something. Now if it harmed our relationship that would be different. But porn does no harm at least not to our relationship. So there is no problem with it.

There's no "let" in it. We don't control each other. If either of us wants to watch porn, that's fine. The only time either of us will get bent out of shape is if the other one found the good stuff and didn't share.

I agree with this. We don't really say "yes you can" or "no you can't". He can watch it if he wants, and so can I. I'd find it odd if we told each other what we can and cannot do.

My wife and I have kind of a "don't ask, don't tell" policy regarding porn. I was open and upfront about the fact that I viewed porn before we got married, which she appreciated and respected. But over time I've come to realize that she doesn't really want to know about it. She doesn't watch porn alone. Only together with me. Her issue is more about dissatisfaction with masturbation, not the porn itself, which means for her, porn without sex = frustration. As a result, she doesn't really "get" why someone would ever watch porn and masturbate alone.

So while I really don't have to worry about being "caught" or being paranoid about hiding it, I also try to keep it discrete and out of sight for the most part. About the only time I bring it out into the open is when I'm suggesting a movie to watch. At that point, I kinda have to to admit that I've previewed it. But there again, the reason I'm bringing it up is so that we can enjoy it together, so there's really no awkwardness about it.

You said she has a "dissatisfaction" with masturbation. Has she tried some sex toys for her alone time? Some women can't get the rhythm or the frequency going properly when masturbating by hand and some good sex toys might help her out a lot.

We don't 'let' each other watch porn, it is something that we are both totally ok with the other viewing and most of the time end up watching together.

Oh, she's got a huge selection of sex toys (I keep her well-supplied ) and she's fully adept at using them. She masturbates to orgasm all the time while she's going down on me. She just doesn't enjoy using them when she's alone. She says it feels "empty" when she's by herself and the climax is more frustrating than fulfilling. She just needs some sort of physical intimacy to be truly satisfied, I guess.

"Let" is a strong word as I believe as an adult no one has the right to decide for you if you watch porn....still I know somepeople get really bent out of shape and somepeople take it to an extreme. So long as I balance my watching with some doing my guys don't really care and I feel the same way about their watching.

I don't understand those who try to control their partner's lives, especially when it comes to their porn. I read what I want and my boyfriend will watch whatever he enjoys.
