Is Pornography Good For Couples?

Pornography gets a bad rap. Judicious use of pornography can be a real benefit to many people. Couples can watch some mutually agreed upon porn together to spice up their foreplay; to some degree it can even serve as a teaching tool, because certain techniques can be studied (and imitated). Pornography can spur the imagination (as in hey, I never thought of doing it that way,) and it can fire up a dormant libido because it is a stimuli. Its also not true at all that pornography only appeals to men. Studies have shown that even when women say they dont enjoy or respond to it, their bodies say they do. When using pornography as a stimulation tool, embrace fantasy and watch things you might never try in real life. Fantasy is a large part of a healthy sexual nature. In real life you may never, for example, engage in a threesome or have sex with someone your same sex, but that may be an enjoyable and stimulating thing to watch happening to someone else on a screen.
