Is Pornography Cheating?

4,596 545 June 20, 2007 at 02:34 PM in Chat
So I'm listening to my local radio station and an interesting point has been brought up by the hosts when a listener has called in. The point is that his girlfriend has really grilled him thoroughly about finding pornography on his computer.

One host says that pornography is cheating while the other feels that it is not cheating. The caller views this as not cheating. My personal opinion is that it is not cheating as long as there is no physical contact.

This same question can be posed in the form of whether an "online" relationship is considered "real" or not. However, that is for a much different topic and a much different thread.

So the question I pose to you: Is Pornography Cheating?

Most people think masturbating is normal, until you do it in front of them.

Quote from TheyCallMeGeorg :
It saddens me to hear you think of marriage as a contract...a legal agreement between two people that only lasts until one party breaks their end of the bargain.

Furthermore, you said nothing to convince me of your position. Breaking a contract isn't cheating. It's breaking a contract. Simple as that.

And no, masturbating and staring at other women isn't natural. It's a conditioned response from living in a sex-crazed society. Not all men are like that, contrary to what you might think.
No, I didn't mean it that way. I know it may sound like I meant that in a legal way. I meant it in a commitment type of contract. Love, emotion, and commitment. Not so much in a legal sense. Although, it does fit in a legal sense as well.

Yes, masturbating is very natural human action. It has been since the beginning of man. It just was known to be more embarrassing years ago. But, it was still done in the not-so-sex crazed society. Also, any straight man who says he doesn't check out other women is a damn liar who seems to think that by lying about it, it makes him a better person. Well, it doesn't. I will tell any man that if he doesn't check out other women, THAT'S abnormal. I'm not talking about gawking and staring or anything disrespectful. I am talking about seeing a woman and thinking or saying to your buddy "Damn, she's hot!" (or something similar)

Hmmm... I think we are sexual creatures by nature. It is a pre-programmed response to proliferate the species. If we did not have these strong sexual desires, I honestly question whether men and women would put up with eachother. Marriage is a contract. A good thing it is. It should be taken much more seriously by more people, however. Without marriage, it is entirely too easy to leave a relationship. The contract serves the purpose of ensuring a base for children to be raised from.

Exactly. Men were made to be sex crazed beings for a reason. We are the pursuers. We have been throughout eternity. Men really do think with 2 heads. Some more than others. Most can control it. Some cannot. Testosterone can have a huge effect on your mind. Even for women. Even the most well adjusted men do things that seemed like a good idea at the time. When it's over, you think "WTF did I just do?" For example, taking a fat blonde chick back to her house from the bar in Jackson, Mississippi. (That wasn't me, I promise Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) )

We have all made such mistakes in a fit of drunken stupor. Be glad you are hopefully not like me and end up remembering all the stupid crap you did while drink... Damn, I wish I could forget some of the stupid shit I did when drunk and single.
