[img]graemlins/erm.gif[/img] Looking at suggestive pictures of scantily clad/naked women is not, in any way, normal in the context of a committed relationship. Period. I would never consider looking at pictures of other women when I have Belle right here with me.

The question to ask is "does he prefer the pornography over you?" If not, then he needs to seek help to find out why he even wants to engage in that kind of behavior. If yes, then it might be time to remove such a potentially hurtful influence from the vicinity of your children....

I don't care how innocent anyone tries to claim that pornography is, when a man in a committed relationship seeks out that kind of material, whether in a magazine, online, or at a club or bar, he is cheating. The very nature of the material and the combination of male physiology and psychology generate feelings of desire for that woman, not the woman with whom he is involved. Besides, how could any woman support pornography when so much of that genre is based on objectification and degradation of women?

Bottom line...he needs to clean up his act. I would suggest deleting any/all pornographic content from the computer, enrolling in relationship/marriage counseling, and letting you have some time off, either by yourself, with a friend, or just the two of you. [img]graemlins/twocents.gif[/img]
