Did you find XXX video can improve your sex life? My boyfriend told me to buy some XXX movies and do the same things like the video.

Kat,"Heck, half the fun is using your own imagination to figure something out and create new thrills for each other." I agree with you totally here. But there are some couples who are still very shy with each other and very inexperienced.(and/ or not very imaginative) That is an easy assumption from reading their questions here on the forum...As someone said, they sometimes just get off watching others "do it". Thats the whole idea behind porn, thats the appeal to some people. The fact they may also learn something from watching is there also.
Watching porn isnt for everyone, and I agree with a prior poster that it shouldnt be used as an "instructional guide". However the intelligent people will be able to discern what is useful for them and what isnt.
Based on the fact that porn is over a billion dollar industry, there are more than just a few people watching, and lastest figures show that at least half of the porn rented or purchased is by women.

There ARE other ways to spur the imagination besides viewing porn though. I was always a great fan of erotic literature and my DH became a fan after we married. IMO, reading helps develop one's own imagination much more effectively than sitting passively in front of the boob tube or monitor and taking in someone else's experience.

And the fact that porn is available at the touch of a button, in the home, online and on cable, means that many are using it now who probably would never have considered it before.

IMO, it's a bandaid for more serious communication, emotional issues in relationships.

But as you said, many use it as entertainment and masturbatory tools and that's fine. We all get to make up our own minds about what role, if any, it will play in our personal lives.
