If your S.O. knows you watch porn and has no problem with it how is it deceiving by trickery?

I don't know that it is in that case. Why do you ask?

My response was to fat hobbit's post.

For example if I were to tell my wife I have to work late tonight but I really go out with some friends and watch a game, I would be lying to my wife and that would be wrong. But it's not cheating. I don't think you can cheat with a movie or a picture.

When I married I promised the most intimate thought and act to one person. To seek out and observe for some sort of personal satisfaction the stimulation that pornography can provide would be doing so against that which I vowed to experience with only my bride.

I have never stated that it was cheating for others, with the exception of fat hobbit's example in which case he deceived. I have only responded that I would view it as me cheating.

The way my wife and I believe/live, absolutely its cheating.

If your S.O. knows you do and doesn't care, then I would say no, its not cheating.

As long as you are not watching it with your wifes best while the wife is at work, it is not cheating.

if you wife knows that you watch it and she has no problem with porn,then nobody else has the right to judge.There is nothing better than enjoying some porn with your wife or girl to spice things up in the bedroom.

Not cheating. And hopefully by the time you get married you know if your SO is a porn fan or not. The only way I can see getting upset over porn is if you lie about it or if it becomes all consuming.

For those people though a lot of times if it wasn't porn it'd be something else. Some people are just really really prone to addictions.

Of course, but when you look at the ease of access, the legality, the lack of physical side effects, and the ability to hide it easily ... it's not too difficult to see that it's definitely the low-hanging fruit for someone with a personality prone to obsessing.

From a 1000 ways to die:

746 Pornicated (a.k.a Hoard Knock Life) April 19, 2010 Tucson, Arizona A porn addict who is also a somewhat compulsive hoarder throws out everything in his wife's vanity to make room for his pornography, prompting her to leave him. Unfazed, he continues to feed his addiction, but forgets to eat and drink. Because he has been hoarding so much X-rated material over the years, he gets trapped in his own house, collapses on the floor from dehydration, and dies.
