You are not in competition with the women in those pictures, for a very simple reason: you are a woman, and they are PICTURES! That means that you have an insurmountable advantage over those women: you are real live human being, they are not.

Suppose, instead of looking at naked women, your husband looked at a photo of a meal in Good Housekeeping and said "that looks delicious." Would you start questioning why your husband was looking at food in magazines when he had plenty of food in the refrigerator? Would you wonder if he preferred that meal in the photo to the meals he got at home? Would you start hiding all the copies of Better Homes and Gardens so that he couldn't look at any more pictures of food, or make him promise never to look at someone else's food again?

Face it: men like to look at naked women. And their interest in naked women does not cease once they enter into the bonds of holy matrimony. But though the looking doesn't stop, the competition is over at that point. Of all the women that he has looked at, he chose to be with you. You emerged victorious, and you deserve to bask in the glow of that victory. And any time you see him looking at another woman, clothed or otherwise, you can say to yourself "she's a loser!" and be confident that you're right.

Children should not be exposed to boobies. They're for the prurient enjoyment of adults, and considering them a food source is simply disgusting.

And Rae, you're wearing a burkha, right? You shouldn't be contributing to the moral decay of society by exposing any of your flesh.

JoefromChicago has provided a very sober perspective on this matter. The thing we must watch for most carefully is a moralistic, puritanical, prudish perspective on the matter.

All men look at internet pornography at a tautological consequence of them being men. It doesn't make them disgusting, it just means they have a healthy male sex drive, get over it.

Just for the sake of argument, let's take your point of view and extend it to an imaginary (yet not at all impossible) extreme. Suppose that starting tomorrow, very realistic automated sex-toys were readily available and affordable to all, and made as accessible as internet porn. With one of these artificial females, a man could indulge in sex acts that mimicked reality very closely.

Would it still be a case of "just get over it", and nothing to worry about, if someone's husband wanted to have one of these in his toy box?

Men would still get married, if this was an option? Laughing

@Cycloptichorn,
Who's going to wash the floors and make the beds, get your dry cleaning, do your laundry and mending, cook your food and look after your kids? Wink

@amist,
I don't believe all men look at porn, esp as a consequence of them being men.

Wash things? Kids? Mending?

None of these things are strictly necessary for a single man's lifestyle.

Cook your food, now. That's a good one - I already do that. Smile

@djjd62,
Oh definitely! I think there's a fair number that do it for that reason, dj, and my BIL says he looks at women in order to understand them better. Wink

@Mame,
You're right. Some guys don't have internet access.

I have a sense of humor and I get the jokes, but I still think there's an issue with men's attachment to easy gratification with porn... even moreso as access has expanded; and I think some honest answers to my hypothetical might even illuminate the discussion.

OK, to respond to your challenge:

If that were the case, then I don't think the response should be "just get over it." But then it would be a different situation, so I'm not sure what your point is. Are you suggesting that viewing pornography and having carnal relations with some sort of sophisticated sex toy are equivalent?
