Anonymous asked: i wouldn’t be dispensing advice that porn is normal/harmless/within the bounds of every relationship. because not everyone agrees. porn use is not all innocent. there is lots of rape/sketchy consent in porn and there is child porn among regular porn. lots of women, me included, feel it is a form of cheating when your partner uses images of other people to get off.
I do not agree with you, and I will continue to dispense advice as I see fit when it comes to pornography. I never said that all porn is innocent, however I truly believe there is nothing wrong with watching it, especially if it is feminist porn (and I have featured various articles on this in the past).
Although the kinds of porn you mentioned are definitely not harmless and have major ramifications for watching, porn that is just women masturbating certainly is unless their is some sort of addiction happening.There seems to be a lot of judgement around porn and people who watch it by people who are uncomfortable with sex and sexuality, and it is an issue that may impact relationships. I would again suggest addressing the underlying issues around porn in your relationships before condemning your partner for watching something that quite frankly may have nothing to do with you.
You are welcome to your own opinions of course, but they will not influence the way I address issues. Part of my sex positive feminism involves not condemning what other people like. That includes porn. Period.

I definitely agree with you. If you have a problem with your partner viewing or reading porn then I would talk to your partner about why. Subjects like this are, IMO, personal preferences & should be on a relationship by relationship basis.
