Host Thoughts on the Porn Episode

Oh porn. There’s nothing wrong with watching it, but please don’t let that be the cause of why you can’t get intimate with your partner. It wasn’t until we recorded this episode that I realized porn might not be the issue. It’s the dishonesty and fear of being judged that ultimately ruined the intimate parts of past relationships. It’s fine to talk about what kind of porn you like to watch and how you get off…just don’t let it warp your expectations in the bedroom. 

As long as it’s not imposing on quality time between a couple, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with porn or masturbation, even if only one side is involved in the enjoyment. However, if you’re jerking it instead of being with your girlfriend or wife, it has nothing to do with the porn and everything to do with your relationship having other issues that need to be addressed. And everybody should make their own porn – it’s fun and exciting and can build self confidence. If you need a director or cinematographer, though, send me a message.
