Thoughts on why so many single men mention their porn habits on dating sites and/or this one? Do they not realize that can be a turn off for women? Or at least it is for me. Maybe it's not for others.

People do crazy things and get in their own way all the time. Still, some men are made to feel shame over their sexual desires. Perhaps these guys are only interested in women that won't shame them and are doing this to weed some out. Just a guess...

I've never heard of or experienced this, but that's insane.

It isn’t really common but have seen it several times. It’s sometimes a profile post but more often the first topic of conversation in a message

@HeraTera holy smokes check your profile... I don’t get that at all. Maybe you have something that seems like a code? When I was first on Match I wrote I like to cuddle and it obviously was seen as code for easy sex. I changed that fast!

@LionMousePudding That could be. I've learned to stay away from those sites where anyone can search and find you

It should be a requirement to notify others what your sexual preferences are other than you have an inny and I have an outy so we should get along just fine if you're here to date.

On my profile, I make it clear I will not waste time with any grown adult woman that thinks pictures of adults making love to each other is somehow offensive.

I use the terms inhibited versus uninhibited to keep immature women away from me intentionally.

It's actually quite offensive that on this site adults are making moral judgments about what anyone thinks on such a universally agreed upon necessity to creating life itself.

Your spouses must be really annoyed they you keep your eyes shut the whole time you make love because looking down and seeing it would otherwise send you into paroxysms.

Amazing how some people get so worked up about this subject isn't it?

I concur. Never been a big fan of it. The only time I did watch it was cuz the guy I was with at the time did and was intoxicated at the time.

???????? let them wonder.

I've never mentioned my porn habits here or anywhere else. Not sure I've really got any unless a healthy awareness of an attractive woman counts as porn? 🙂

I don't think a healthy awareness counts as porn 🙂

That is weird. Of course, I never really look at other men's profiles, so I had no idea. Why would they? I don't know.

I would never air my laundry (porn habits) here or on nearly any sites! Why would anyone advertise such on line...I believe this sort of information should be shared selectively and on an individual basis in private discussion only. Let’s face it, this is not information for the world to know or be subjected to! C’mon, let’s not “go there” with this sort of extremely private type of information/behavior! There is a time and a place for revealing this stuff...and this is not the place! OK, rant over....Greg

Lots of good thoughts and judgements here. It seems for those it offends, it clears that up real quick. For those that don't mind, it opens that door. There is definitely a stigma that goes with the subject and there are many ways to address it, just like this post. I'd venture to say, you'd be hard pressed to find the same question revolving around smoking, or dancing, or masturbation, or riding motorcycle. Just some examples of topics that can elicit the same reaction (it's fine for them, but i don't want to be with someone who does that) type of attitude. Just like you have in your post. But seriously, isn't the"dating profile" supposed to be an honest advertisement? In which case you could be thankful about their openness. Or are you looking for to educate potential daters to hide it a little better? Or just wondering how many others are turned off by it?

I think (as I stated above) that this information is best to share in a private text or conversation, etc. with someone after a connection...not just out there in the open. Many would be horrified and grossed out with what is don in the privacy of some homes. Just saying my friend.

Hello Jerome, how are you? Greg

Fine, fine… I won't talk about my porn-viewing habits. Let's instead talk about your porn-viewing habits. ?

I'm guessing that some men feel insecure about it, and by addressing it head-on they feel like they have more control over how it's perceived. That's just a guess, but it's the only thing I can think of.

When your single so long it's just something guys get used to using to take care of a need and it becomes a problem for alot of guys. Its a symptom of rejection ladies, for many its easier than trying to date and getting hurt or told off, so why try? Women have toys and guys have nothing else to resort to but porn, if you want to change that then maybe quit judging and put out more or quit complaining about it cause what option have you given us? Sex is a human need and is going to be fulfilled some way.

Yes I agree that some people need it - but we don't discuss our bathroom habits so not sure why anyone would want to lay that out on the internet either.

If we're talk exclusively about guys coming out with their porn habits in the first instant of meeting someone that's a little stupid on their part I mean it's not something you want to divulge until they know the rest of you, cause really our sexual habits are only a small part of who we are as people, also I believe that the time will come soon enough when you meet someone to share that kind of stuff not to mention those sort of proclivities can change dramatically with the onset of a relationship.
