None of my close male friends look at porn, and neither does my long-term boyfriend. They all have seen porn, of course - as have I - but they do not feel the need to do that/they feel it's beneath their dignity/it's degrading (to them!). Granted, they are a very small minority, but men like this exist! If you are deeply disturbed by porn, the man who loves you should understand this and stop using porn, or else this relationship will have damaging aspects.
I recommend you go to hugoschwyzer.net and look at his posts on porn...
And whatever you do, do not do things that you feel deeply uncomfortable with, just because you think this might please your boyfriend!
I hope this is resolved well... |  Great post! reps on the way!
