So true. 99% of porn consists of 2 people selected on the size of some of their body-parts (How is that for putting it nicely
) that do some mechanical motions without the tinyest connection. That is not only a turn-off for most women, but for men too.
And yet, I have to admit that there is a certain appeal to it, even though in real life I cannot stand that kind of sex (Have too much experience with it I guess
). It's just the appeal of letting your imagination running wild, stimulated by a film, without the practicalities of the smells, periods, wishes and needs of your SO.
By the way, if one can refrain from watching, I really recommend that. Your body doesn't need it in any way and I've noticed that this feverish stimulation disturbed my mind much more than I ever expected. I call porn nowadays "mind poison".
If you're watching porn and want peace of mind, this is the most effective "30-day trial" I can recommend: to refrain from porn or any other form of mental sexual revery. You'll be surprized!
Back to OP:
On a practical level: Why not talk about it with your SO, share your feelings on the subject and make an agreement about it if you want?
