Does your significant other/spouse have a problem with you looking at erotic photos on the net? I'm not talking about video porn, but anything from bikini photos to all out nude erotica.

Or do you have a problem with YOUR SO/spouse doing this?

I'm not sure exactly what distinction you are drawing between erotica and plain old porn, but my spouse doesn't mind. Sure, she'll make jokes when a malicious porn page has changed our homepage or inserted itself into our Favorites list on the browser, but she's really quite understanding about it. That's not to say that she was always so easy going, but after a lot of talking, her own fears and insecurities have been put to rest.

I have never understood the problem with looking at pictures. No, I don't mind if my SO looks at pictures of beautiful women. I also don't mind if he looks at pornography.

Like me, he is married but not dead.

I'm giving this the benefit of the doubt:

Definately Maybe, is there a secular lifestyle issue here, or does this belong in Misc. Disc.?

Sorry, you can move the post. I wasn't sure where to put this one.

(Laurie) No and no. But neither of us abuses it, or uses it to ignore the other.

My husband doesn't have a problem with it. However, I do tend to surf erotica and porn when he is not around.

Mainly because he likes attention and I tend to tune everything out when I am reading something. But also because I like some stuff he really isn't into so he makes jokes about what is on the screen.

I have no problem with him going to sex sites.

I just wish I could get him off dominos. He's addicted to stupid dominos. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!
