A listener wrote in with a question about porn.
She knows her husband watches porn, and feels threatened by his desire for the women in the videos – especially once she realizes that porn turns HER on too!
What should she do? Watch porn with him? Ask him not to watch porn? Should she share her own turn-on?
We weigh in and talk about the role of porn as visual fantasy and the bottom line: porn will never compare to the pleasure and intimacy of a real relationship!
Here’s the question we received:
Question:: Hi! I am a frequent visitor to your site and have several of your ‘How-to videos. Love them! My questions is about porn. I am in a happy heterosexual marriage and feel threatened by porn. Especially girl on girl. Why does it turn ME on? If it turns me on then all my preconceived notions of porn are then backed up. Meaning that he is turned on by the other women and not me. I do not have the body of a porn star!! Should I watch porn with him and keep my feelings to myself or ask that he not watch??
