Associating watching porn with lack of commitment sounds like something out of the 50s. Nobody(*) contemplates leaving their SO for some person on a website (or in a movie, or on TV), and porn isn't an exception.
- bitops 15y ago> on a website I'd qualify that to be "non-dating website". But actually, I wouldn't be surprised if somebody broke off an existing relationship to pursue someone they were fantasizing about online. If they're unhappy in their current relationship, online fantasy is a form of escape and leads to eventual idealization. By comparison, the real person can't compete as their flaws are evident. Dime-store psychology perhaps, but on these topics nothing surprises me.
- jerrya 15y agoProbably closer to more like something out of the 90s. Also very much age / culture / internet age related. I think many of the attitudes regarding porn has changed simply because it became so ubiquitous that it changed culture, not that culture somehow grew up and grew to embrace porn.
