Important poll question about porn
« on: September 21, 2009, 03:18:41 PM »
Would you leave your spouse if they were addicted to porn?  Not "normal" porn watching but sitting in front of the TV for hours every day and then surfing porn on the internet long into the night.  Not just owning one or two good porn movies but spending several hundred dollars a month buying porn.  A friend asked me if I thought she should leave.  I am so not rational (I would just shoot my hubby if he did shit like that) about things like that so I thought I would do a poll on here. 

Where the hell is the poll thing to click?  Until I figure it out just say yes or no.

I'd have to go with no, since being the principal breadwinner in a long, long marriage means I'd get completely ass-raped in the divorce, I'd be better off sticking around to do damage control on the finances.

The 'Spending several hundred dollaras a month' part is total irredeemable disaster in the making, if I was in a different stage of my life or not the major earner in the household, I'd be punching out faster than an F-18 pilot having a very bad day on short final to the carrier.

LMAO that is why I can pretty much get away with what ever I want.   :tongue:

I say yes I would and I would take all of his money along with me.   :-)

Oops I think I voted for No instead of yes.

Well, he said furry outfits, not furry objects.....der!   :tongue:

I would have to say the issue isn't all about porn, but if he is looking at porn on tv for HOURS, and surfing the internets all night for it too, he probably isn't doing anything else, and that is more of an issue.  If the money he is spending, is money he earned, then no foul, as long as it is not allocated to a household need.  I dunno.  I would say it is more about the time than the money, or the fact that it is porn.

Normal porn= Look I know guys like looking at boobz and stuff.  Here and there it is fine as long as it isn't some sick twisted stuff that only gets produced in Thailand or Tiajuana.

This guy works full time and does earn most of the household money.  There doesn't usually seem to be enough for everyone else to get stuff they want but porn is always a reasonable purchase according to him.  He also isn't making nice-nice  :naughty: with his wife anymore.  He thinks she is being unreasonable about it.  He said that porn makes him happy so she shouldn't care.

Stuff like this makes me ever so thankful that my hubby works 80+  hours a week and has like 4 hours of online time in his life.

Who buys porn?  Anyone still paying for that stuff is a sucker.  I think excessive video game playing is just as detrimental than spending massive amounts of time and money online looking for ladyboys and Japanese poo fetish, but that's just because my parents wouldn't buy me that Atari I wanted when I was a child.

There is no way I would ever leave my wife.

1) As stated by Tex, all my stuff is her stuff, and all her stuff is her stuff.
2) I can barely stand the emotional relationship I am in now- no way in hell am I starting another.
3) With any luck, I'll be dead in five years. Anyone can do five years in Pergatory...Anyone.

That is why I hesitated to post this.  I swear on all that is holy and good that it is NOT me and my hubby.  Since I am not a widow arrested for murder.

Porn is a crashing bore and so is anyone who is so weak of will and so diseased in the mind that they can become "addicted" to it.  You are well within your relationship rights to leave today, mamaC.  Be sure to write when you get where you are going.

"You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.' But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell."

Who said anything about simply noticing the attractiveness of women?  I've noticed the attractiveness of CC ladies. God made women to be attractive to men and there is nothing wrong with appreciating that fact.  It's lust that is the problem.

Ahhhh...  But what qualifies as lust?

Just thinking, hmmm...  I wouldn't mind a piece of that, or taking actual steps to get a piece of it?

Both would qualify.  Are you admitting to thinking that whenever you see an attractive woman?

Nope...  Just asking.  Have such thoughts ever crossed my mind?  Sure have.  Especially when I was a lot younger.
