Is Watching Porn Cheating?

Relationship rules can be complicated. 

Since there is no textbook definition of “cheating”, every couple has to define their own boundaries to navigate the relationship’s tricky terrain. The involvement of porn in relationships has always been a particular sore spot, sparked by the age-old question — is watching porn cheating? 

Like it or not, porn is a big part of our modern society. Despite its prominence, particularly in recent years, there is still a lot of shame around the subject. 

Since porn and masturbation are considered to be equally taboo, it can be very hard to start a conversation on these topics. Even with your partner.
