Hello! Many of us women and/or men tend to feel hurt when we find out that our significant other is looking at others on the internet (porn). Although the simple answer to this problem is communication, what is the answer to what your husband of wife says? For example, I've found that some men say they watch it because they get the sudden urge, and since they're not doing anything special, they just do it. I'd like for men to answer this question, but women are open to comment too. Would you say this random moment of watching porn could stem from not doing anything? If you don't have a job, and don't go to school, do you think that might be the problem? Thanks in advance for your opinions!
Porn as a diversion or stress relief is certainly one reason for a quick trip into fantasy land. Just as long as it remains a fantasy and not an overpowering urge that becomes all encompassing. Certainly porn should not be looked at while at work or school or with small children around.
Sitting home looking at porn all day rather than looking for a job is not, to my thinking, a normal thing to do. Like anything else porn can be come addictive just like computer games or alcohol taking over someone entire waking hours. If this is the case than that person needs professional help.
Otherwise a little pron as a diversion or stress relief is or should be considered a normal part of life. If you are in a committed relationship and one of the partners is bothered by this, then this needs to be discussed so that the partner who is bothered by it can understand or the porn viewing can be altered or stopped.

When i'm feeling stressed or sometimes I get a little horny in the middle of the day, i'll jump over to a good porn site. I'm sure everyone has their reasons why they watch but I think if it doesn't interfere with your daily activities, it's perfectly normal. I hope this helps and good luck.

BLONDShorty answered Sunday June 12 2011, 9:42 pm: well i definately think it could contribute to the problem. if your bored and not doing anything, you are more likely to give into your sexual desires than if you were very busy. i don't think most people are watching porn during class or at work because "they get the urge" lol. if you are home and alone with nothing to do, then one might think, why not? I think that if it really bothers you, than of course, you should communicate that to your significant other. in response, i would just say that i was curious because that was personally the way i felt and that I wanted to communicate that. that way, it's not awkward. you just wanted to say what you wanted to say. i would say that it's not always the case that a busy person doesn't watch porn, but one who is not busy is most likely to give into the desires. it's almsot like drugs or alchohol or any other addictions. it may not go away just because you start keeping busy, but it helps. That is my opinion. Hope I helped. xoxo [ BLONDShorty's advice column | Ask BLONDShorty A Question ]
