It all depends on personalities. I have to go now.

The same could be said for most of /adv/'s questions. But you're right!

femanon here

I don't care if a dude watches porn as long as it doesn't affect his abilities in bed, which has been an issue in the past for me.
Saving porn is kind of weird for me. It seems obsessive. If one person had a hundred pictures of one celebrity you'd think they were obsessed. Having a hundred naked women, even if they're all different, still signals a fixation and is a glaring red flag to me.

The problem is that girls immediately start to compare themselfes to the girls you are looking at. They search for patterns (blond or brunette? Big or small titts? And so on). If they think they don't fit into your pattern they will assume you don't find them attractive (enough). It boils down to low selfesteem, but when it comes to looks, almost every girl will have some troubles there.

I've over 100 gigs of hentai saved on one of my harddrives. Would hentai bother you as much as actual porn with real women? is it the same or even worse?

>>16449466
Yyyyeah... That's what I've been thinking about, recently. My girlfriend has actually not confronted me about this, I'm just considering whether I should start a porn folder again.

A long time ago, I had a 32 Gb folder of [full figured/thick/plump/etc] ladies. I really enjoyed that folder because I could randomize the images in a viewer and wouldn't see the same image twice. However, my house was flooded and it destroyed a lot of things, including my old computer, as well as the backup drive where I had it stored.

I'm a little older now, and I'm considering starting a blog about chubby porn, but I feel like I have a moral obligation to both my partner and myself not to get involved in all of this.

>>16449479

er, well that's a bit different.
>>16449476
^ this is right, it does have something to do with self esteem and I will admit I have low self esteem, but i'm also willing to admit most women become competitive even when faced with pornstars because that's the environment women are raised in, to see other women as competition constantly

when it comes to hentai...well I wouldn't be insecure about it, competitively, but 100 gigs is fucking ridiculous friend. That would be a big red flag just because it seems like a) you have a fixation issue and b) you're probably incredibly immature.

I have no problem with hentai as a porn source, but saving porn in general let alone 100gigs worth is concerning

>>16449503
I am a very lonely man with compulsive issues

>>16449501
>starting a blog about chubby porn

Yeah, I'm not your girl, but as a woman in general this would be severely offputting in a partner. You're going to have occasional girls who feel different, or say different just to seem like speshul snowflakes or challenge the status quo, but the things that people fixate on, positive or negative, speak loads about their character.

Idgaf if a guy has a blog, but if he has a blog about chubby women that means he's obsessed with being horny, obsessed with other women let alone obsessed with women who don't look like me (idk if your girl is chubby)

>>16449518

yeah well women can smell men with issues from a mile away. Keep in mind that most women are going to be looking for men with less negatives than positives, and compulsive issues relating to sexual nature are big red flags that say "you should neither date nor fuck this man"
if you're happy being single then do as you please but if you want to be the most competitive choice for a woman, you're going to have to get it together

>>16449530
Look, I live and work alone, for the most part I have little interaction with people, unless it's work related.
.
ALso this PC is years old and I've amassed all my hentai from years now. It's just one of those things that i've had the folder so long I'm almost keeping for a compulsive "I can't get rid of it" reason. Like, a hard time letting things go, even if it's just anime titties

Male here. I consider porn use an important expression of my sexuality. With porn I have control over my sex life rather than to be dependent on someone else for it. It's very freeing and self-actualizing. (It also scratches that "variety" itch in committed relationships)

My relationships with women have never relied on sex to sustain them because I don't enter into relationships with girls I wouldn't want to be friends with and the relationships don't rely primarily on sex. Those are bad, immature, unstable relationships anyways. However, I recognize that porn use can be a problem, and has gotten in the way before (when I was young; first relationship) and the line to me is where it interferes in the real relationship, then it's a problem.

Porn's so available I don't think it really matters whether you keep a stash of it or not, other than maybe the effort it takes to find the stuff you really like.

Anyways, when a women doesn't like/agree with porn, it's never about the porn. It's about her insecurity. Plenty of couples use porn together with no problem - don't treat the symptom, treat the cause.

>>16449503
>>16449503
>is concerning
You never stated logically why.

The average tumblr sex blog is started by 15 year old females and usually runs for years.
While not technically saved on their PCs, it more often than not contains multiple gigs of porn. What's the difference?

Furthermore, would it be different for a female with a small library of erotica?
>>16449530
>women can smell men with issues
"Smell"
I really don't want to turn this thread into a war of the sexes debate, but modern, young, western females have notably horrible intuition for this sort of stuff
>So he does coke a couple times a month. He could change.
>He has a foot fetish. Serial killer confirmed.

>>16449551

thats fine. I really don't care if you have a bunch of cartoon tits on your computer. I'm just saying, don't come here and complain if you manage to score a girl and she comes to find you have 100 gigs of hentai on your hard drive.

like I said, if you're fine the way you are, then theres no problem. If you want things to change, you have to change.

>>16449521
Anon, I think you're right. I don't think I'll be going through with this collection then.

Though, I can't help but to feel there is some underlying double-standard between the genders, here.

>>16449566
Maybe I should just talk to her about this. That's always the best place to start, I know, but it's only come up a couple times in the past. She didn't seem too upset about it, but if I had a massive folder of porn, she might think differently.

>>16449579
idk, I felt the need to justify mtself

>>16449575
>You never stated logically why.

Because op never asked. He asked if it would be concerning and I said yes.

>Furthermore, would it be different for a female with a small library of erotica?
No, at least not IMO, I'm not bi. I don't know if a guy would feel the same way. But if one of my girlfriends told me she had a library of hentai or dick pics I'd probably tell her she has some issues to iron out.

>I really don't want to turn this thread into a war of the sexes debate, but modern, young, western females have notably horrible intuition for this sort of stuff
>yeah well that's like, your opinion man
I disagree, but whatever. Not here to argue, just here to answer the OP as a female

>>16449585
>Though, I can't help but to feel there is some underlying double-standard between the genders, here.

Like I said to the other anon, I can't say how I'd feel about it regarding women in a relationship because I'm not in a relationship with a woman. But I'd feel just as uncomfortable if my friend said she had a library of specific pornography. I don't meet a lot of women who do that, mostly because women are less sex-fixated and more aesthetic-fixated

>>16449585
there IS a double standard. Men are icky gross and please don't ever be sexual; women are cherished and encouraged to be sexual. There's good reasons for it, but yeah - definite double standard.

And yeah, talk with her. It's harder when you have a particular fixation (chubbies) because then you're either saying "You're not what I like" or "You're just a fetish I have" to her.

Might suggest downplaying the aspect of it that is your desire, and up-playing the interesting social commentary aspect of it. You want to explore what's it like going against societal norms as a consumer of porn. You can spin it, I believe in you.

so, lying, because deep down the reality is that OP has a permaboner for fat chicks and that's a reasonable thing for his girl to be concerned about.
Yeah that sounds like a good idea, lie to your girl about your sexual fantasies.

Just to confirm >>16449605 is not>>16449575

>>16449602
You satisfied all the questions I had, and I'm done shitting up this thread. If anyone else comes along to shit up the thread past OP's original question, it's not me.

>>16449442
Sometimes the same piece of ass just doesn't do it for me. Sometimes she isn't in the mood. Whatever the reason, I need to be able scratch that itch quickly and efficiently.

>>16449442
I have a new rule after my last relationship. If she gives me shit about porn or glances at random women, she's on borrowed time. I don't even keep porn anymore because of how traumatizing women can be. But I do not want to live long term with a crazy jealous woman.

Fuck that. Porn means nothing, but your mental well being does. If you are a guy don't commit to chicks with porn problems. You will feel uncomfortable going to an R rated movie with them or any instance where nudity is shown.

Kick them to the curb or look for a replacement.

>>16449442
>FEMALES: Do you mind if your partner saves porn on his computer?
I'd question why he's saving it when he can just look it up on the internet

I'm a fem, and I actually watch porn daily anyway. However, I think saving it is a bit extreme. Sure, I have my favorite videos, but I don't save it on my computer. I also expect my partner to realize that sex isn't at all how is portrayed in porn. No loud moaning and screaming, and half of those posit are quite uncomfortable. Nonetheless I don't have a problem with it for the most part until it gets extreme.
