7 Ways To Go Wrong On A Date
March 14, 2018
Recently, porn has become much more commonplace, varied and diverse, as well as becoming a lot more ‘normalised’, as opposed to previous years of being negatively associated with pervy old dudes, exclusively.
In terms of relationships, the tired cliché of men being obsessed and secretive over their porno stash, while women are derisive and disgusted by the whole affair are also becoming increasingly redundant. This cliché plays to the ever-pervasive myth that women just aren’t that into sex, which is absolutely untrue!
With a greater range of pornography catering to a much wider range of audiences, fetishes and sexualities, porn has never been more accommodating or inclusive and as a result, more and more couples are using it as a way to achieve new levels of intimacy and openness, not to mention having a great time.
The sleazy era of greasy moustaches and slap bass muzak (check out Ron Jeremy’s Pornosonic!) is long gone. We’re going to run through a couple of the ways pornography can improve your sexual relationship.
It’s a rare relationship that’s completely and utterly trusting and confident in each member’s fidelity and attention, so it’s really no wonder that partners are often suspicious of each other’s secretive online viewings. Being cheated on really sucks and can be very damaging to trust, so you can see why some individuals would associate masturbation with other people with infidelity.
However, when openness and transparency are brought into play, you can expect greater levels of trust and intimacy, through knowing exactly what each other is into, sexually, as well as where you both are getting your kicks.
You’re essentially reducing porn from being an insidious third party and an object of suspicion, to a simple way of getting to know your lover better. This often means a stronger overall relationship, which is always a good thing, right?
With greater levels of trust, transparency and openness come more frank discussions about what you’re both into. This means learning about your individual fetishes and quirks, and with that comes the ability to better please each other.
You might discover stuff you didn’t know you were into! Broadening your sexual horizons, as well as learning to own and be unapologetic about your own fetishes, will nearly always lead to better sex, for everyone, and a closer and stronger bond in your relationship.
The flip side of this, however, is that you might discover something unexpected and potentially awkward, like a fetish that one of you really isn’t into. Take feet, for example, some people find feet really repulsive, others get off on them.
Now imagine a pairing where one person finds feet utterly gross, and the other is really into them. This could lead to potentially major issues. The fact is, the best relationships are based on honesty and openness, and if you’re really into each other you’ll get past it.
Pornography can be amazing for a relationship, but like most things that can help a relationship, it can also damage it. What it comes down to is, as usual, honesty and openness. If you’re not at a point where you’re completely comfortable talking about everything sexual, then this probably isn’t for you, and you should probably work towards that.
