Many of my friends have expressed that they don’t want to watch porn. They do it anyways and hate themselves for it after you know... they are done.
I personally think it’s completely natural to have such urges and to cave to them. In fact, for men specifically there are some benefits in keeping the system well lubricated (pun not intended). It’s just something one has to moderate.
Additionally, i have noted that people’s expectations of their desired partner is usually skewed from what they see in porn.

Porn is hardly the only - or even the main - driver of this, though. Look around you: you'll see billboards, magazines, TV commercials, banner ads, etc. etc. basically a plethora of images showing gorgeous women. Compared to that, porn's effect on men's partner expectations is probably negligible (unless it's for specifically sexual attributes like whether they shave their genitalia).
- purple-again 9y agoThis seems to be indicative of a problem with them not with porn. They probably come from heavily religious backrounds that makes them feel guilty. I have seen no evidence in myself or my friends that porn affected our expectations for our partners.
- azernik 9y agoNote that post-coital depression/tristesse/dysphoria (terminology has varied over time) is a very real thing that people feel, regardless of whether porn is involved. Human contact can counteract this, however, which is an advantage of in-person sex.
