6 Benefits Of Watching Porn As A Couple

Porn is often attributed to being the cause of many breakups or even divorces – which is why it’s so important to be on the same page regarding its use. However, if we’re going to fixate on the bad things it can cause, we owe equal time to explore the benefits it can provide as well.

In reality, as long as you two are both on board with each other watching porn, then watching it together as a couple can actually be quite a good thing.

So, in this article I’ll cover 6 different benefits you might not have thought about before. Who knows, maybe it’ll be worth trying out!

1. You Develop New Ideas To Try Out Together

I should probably say that the sex you see in porn is not a good representation of what sex should be like in real life. I do not believe at all that those who are inexperienced with sex should use pornography as a model for what to expect, how to act, or what to do.

But what about those who have had real, meaningful sex before?

Well, porn companies are known for their creative (and let’s be honest, sometimes ridiculous) scenarios. It turns out there are thousands of different ways to spice up what is ultimately, just a penis going in and out of a vagina, or an ass, or a mouth.

A lot of these ideas aren’t going to appeal to you. However, a lot of the fun in watching porn is the exploration, the new things that you find. Porn is a safe way to introduce new ideas to your partner if you’re not yet comfortable with communicating all of your desires directly.

Who knows – you may just discover something fun the two of you can do together – be it a new sex position, a new fetish to indulge in, or a new roleplay scenario to try out!

Tip: Consider listening to audio porn, which can get even more creative with its scenarios! This is because we aren’t bound by production budgets that have to make believable visuals. A low-budget sci-fi porno would be cheesy for example. With audio, we can still make it really immersive!

2. It Can Lead To Really Long, Fun Sex Sessions

Sex is fun. Most people want to have sex for as long as possible.

Of course, the issue with that often comes down to getting bored or losing arousal. As attractive as you may find your partner, the brain craves novelty, and it’s simply easier to stay horny for longer periods of time when you’re able to mix things up.

While I wish that I could snap my fingers and make a harem of attractive girls pop up in front of you, that would probably be a little more problematic than just, well, taking a visit over to The Hub. Or Spankbang. Or Xhamster. Or whatever is the main site of your choice.

Throwing some porn up and fucking until you can’t hold back any longer – then taking a break or engaging in some intimate play, can lead to sex lasting for literally hours.

As a woman, getting to cum over and over again while we enjoyed this together would be a real treat.

Remember, the more fun you make it for her, the more she’ll want to do it again!

3. It Can Help You Two Feel More Comfortable Together

In my opinion, this is one of the biggest benefits of them all.

Showing your partner your sexuality requires you to be vulnerable, and it can be really difficult to let your guard down – even if you feel comfortable with them.

Porn gives you an opportunity to explore each other’s sexuality in a calm, controlled, and fun environment.

For example, maybe there’s a kink or a roleplay scenario that you’ve fantasized about playing out, but you’ve been too shy to bring it up.

You could start breaking down this wall by watching some porn of it together first, and seeing that your partner doesn’t react poorly.

Then, you could ease into trying it out together!

I’ve seen entire couples’ sex lives change due to small acts like this!

4. It Can Aid Feelings Of Jealousy

Whether we like to admit it or not, humans crave variety when it comes to sex – even if we’re fully committed in a monogamous relationship.

This doesn’t mean that you or your partner ever has any intention to cheat, but this is simply the way we are wired.

Watching porn can help you or your partner realize that yes, you may get aroused by the sight of someone else. However, this doesn’t mean that you love your partner any less, or that you don’t want to be with them.

Pretty much every guy would look at an attractive woman and admit – at least to himself, that he’d enjoy sex with her. It would be unnatural to feel otherwise.

One of the greatest ways to overcome our fears is to be exposed to them, and see that we turn out okay.

Having your partner witness you getting horny for someone else – but still remaining committed and faithful to them might help them feel better about your natural urges.

5. Watching Porn Together Is A Great Way To Mix Things Up

Finally, watching porn together is a great way to spice up your sex life a little bit – even if you just use it as foreplay, before focusing on each other.

Obviously, you don’t need to watch porn every single time that you have sex.

However, by having new things to try out together, this can help sex remain exciting and novel, especially when it starts feeling like a routine.

You might consider planning a ‘date’ to watch porn together every Sunday, or maybe it’s something you do together when your wife is on her period as sort of a fun treat.

Ultimately, it is between the two of you to decide what the right balance is.

Conclusion

As long as the two of you don’t have any moral qualms about pornography, trying it out together can be a fun idea!

The worst that can happen is the two of you decide it isn’t right for you, and you don’t try it again for a while. Ultimately, no real harm is done.

If I may be so bold, I would like to draw attention to my own audio porn. This can be a good way to start or enhance your experience if traditional porn isn’t doing it for you. The fact that it’s audio-only allows you to focus even more on each other, while still providing some erotic stimulation, and some fun scenarios to think about.

My Patreon has hundreds of audios for you to listen to completely ad-free, as to not disrupt the experience at all. You can learn more by visiting my Patreon page here.

Thanks for reading, and have fun!
