Guilty Pleasure

Ladies and Gentlemen! I come before you all today to try to tackle a debate that has plagued mankind for centuries! Is it alright to watch porn if you are in a relationship? To answer this, I asked a number of people 2 questions and came to a conclusion. These are the answers I found the most interesting and entertaining. All the people asked remain anonymous.

Question 1: If you are in a relationship, do you think it is alright for you to watch porn without having to hide it from your partner or feel guilty about it?

- "um no, I know some people don't like it but to each their own"
-"It's just porn, you shouldn't feel guilty"
-"Agreed. I'd get her in on it. Fuck"
-"I don't watch porn. Sicko"
-"Oh fuck yeah dude"
-"The idea is kinda vulgar to me. Why would I want to see people I don't even know naked?"
-"If they know and they're cool then i won't feel guilty. But if they don't like it n I do it behind their back then i'll feel guilty because I'm lying"

Question 2: Is it alright for your partner to watch porn?

-"Oh fuck yeah dude. I love walking in on them doing it"
-"Its like an accepted form of cheating. Its not all that different than having some random person in your room while you get off"
-"Maybe. It's the same thing as going to a strip club. If you're in a relationship why have the need to look elsewhere"
-"Would she have all sorts of crazy vibrators and shit? That stuff can be hot"
-"Yeah they can watch porn. Wait, what kind of porn? It depends"
-"Yeah, although i might feel threatened if they watched it everyday"
-"Of course as long as it's not an obsession or addiction. I think once in a blue moon is fine"

These question were asked to a wide variety of people. Some males, some females. Some were friends, some strangers, some managers, some co workers. If you look at some of the answers, the first question mainly had people feeling that it was alright for them to watch pornographic films. However, when asked how they felt about their partner watching it, there seems to be a double standard. There's a feeling of "it's ok if I do it, but I don't know if I want you doing it". One person even described watching porn as a form of cheating!! A lot of the answers were the same. Many people would say "yeah I should be able to watch whenever" but then when the second question is asked they would say "Oh.. I don't know about that one". There were those who are alright with both sides watching porn, but the double standard is definitely more dominant.

At the end of the day, everyone is going to have their own fantasies. Whether it is a well endowed woman, oiled up from head to toe, rubbing herself up against the camera while playing with various toys in various compromising positions while you watch and get off to this beautiful vixxen, or whether it is fantasy regarding a date with a special someone, we all do it. The key thing to remember is that they are just that, fantasies. Your partner is not actually part of that 14 person orgy, 5 of which are little people. They are merely just enjoying the show. So in my opinion, you should be able to watch porn without feeling guilty. The next time your partner tells you not to watch porn, you tell them to stop watching that show they like with that actor/actress they think is hot, because you know they fantasize about them! However we all know that because of this double standard, this will never happen. We will always have the issue of "I can do it but i don't know if they should". Oh well, what can you do? What do you guys think??
