I wouldn’t consider it cheating but it would be an ick but than again honestly I would rather my man watch porn than go making his own😂 if that makes sense

I don't consider it cheating myself.

It is if it’s your boundary

That is not cheating

It solely depends on what your boundaries are. I personally am fine with it.
But my friend and her bf have a no porn rule in there relationship. So it’s entirely on what you feel about it.
I wouldn’t go as far as cheating personally but if discussed and you’ve said you don’t like it then it’s wrong

we did say no porn and he went and watched porn just bc I wasn’t spending time with him I have to take care of out 7 month old baby and she is teething so it’s a lot of fussiness and crying

By definition, it’s literally not cheating. Disrespectful if it’s something you’re not comfortable with, but not cheating.

No I don’t personally I have watched it my self we’ve also watched it together and he’s watched it by himself

Not cheating, now if he’s on FaceTime masturbating with a woman together thats a different story!

Depends on the people/couple. Something you should discuss
Doesn't bother me personally

I wouldn’t really have a problem with it to be honest as long as it wasn’t often or having an impact on our sex life

Porn is completely normal & most guys who ‘don’t’ do it do it secretively.
Personally, I don’t think it’s anyone’s business anyway what someone does in their own private time and dictating what they can and can’t watch or do with their own body is nuts to me.
Edit to add after reading your comment - guys actually NEED the release, biologically speaking. If you’re not ‘spending time with him’ then that’s fine and it’s not your job to, but then I don’t see why you’d care if he gets his rocks off elsewhere.

Not cheating at all.
Always something you can try watching together too, if you need to spice up the bedroom life.

I don’t consider it cheating. There are days when I just don’t have any energy to get him off, I’m fine with him banging off in the bathroom if he feels like it haha. End of the day, I know that he loves me, and I love him, and I trust him completely.

It’s not cheating to me.
But I feel like in your situation it definitely shouldn’t matter since he’s your ex. Why does it matter what he does or doesn’t do?

thank you

Come on, cheating is completely a different story. This tabu on porn seems unreasonable.

No, not cheating in my opinion. I watch porn, my dude does not. But we're both fine either way

It all depends on boundaries y’all have set I don’t personally think it is and I don’t want to be taking videos and stuff for him all the time so he can jack but at the same time if that’s a boundary yall have set then that’s different if you’re unsure maybe it’s time to sit down and set those boundaries especially if you feel that way. A question I always ask someone is what is cheating to you and if looking at other people is then that needs to be said it looks different for every relationship

To me porn is cheating. No matter what kind it is. If you’re looking at other people to get off instead of your partner then that is a problem.

exactly

It depends on your view on it and if you have clear boundaries as a couple on the subject. Some people are fine with it in a relationship and others aren’t so you just have to communicate your feelings (there is no right answer, I personally don’t agree with porn if you are in a relationship)

Depends on how you and your partner feel. Varies from person to person tbh……

yes period.

Men are visual, they need to be looking at something. Sometimes women don’t let their men have photos or film them so porn is the next best thing. My partner doesn’t watch porn BECAUSE we have plenty of videos. If we didn’t, I wouldn’t see an issue with him watching porn

I'd pose this question as my reply, if your significant other was watching "porn" where what they are watching looks nothing like you would this bother you, it would me, because absolutely men are visual and most porn, like to and magazines display unrealistic expectations of both men & women. People who watch porn are more likely to be more critical and less satisfied in their relationships. Watching together or making videos for each other I do think is a healthier option, but I'd rather just focus 100% on my partner than be distracted by it. Kinda like eating dinner with someone who's on their phone if they can't give me their full attention in moments of intimacy then they're not worth my time. If I give 100% I expect to be given mutual respect

It all depends on the boundaries set in the relationship. For others no, for my marriage, we agree on yes.
