I'm not asking about a specific situation - just looking for people's opinions on this topic. Someone asked, "How much? How often?" What do you think is too much or too often?

It's not a question of frequency but a question of control.
If he's looking at porn at work or /instead of/ having relations with you then it's a serious problem.
Some guys just watch it to watch it. Most guys use it as a masturbatory tool. So then the question is... why are they masturbating if they are married? Is this a few times a week or less? (fine) Does their sex-life suck? (ut oh Raggy) Or has their wife given up on herself or her husband? (Danger Will Robinson) Or are they addicted? (Game Over Man)
Mine does. Reasons? Umm, I'd have to guess because it's hot. It's fun and exciting to watch someone else get aroused and then go about satisfying their arousal- or at least think that they are. That's why I watch it. But I've never actually asked my husband. I just assume he's getting out it, what I'm getting out of it. How often? I'd have to say at least once a week but if someone managed to come out with a zombie horror porn flick that made some sense and was hot at the same time, he'd probably watch it several times a day. Too often is when it you watch so much of it where it gets boring.
Yeah, I think sometimes happily married men watch porn alone. It's a release. When a man doesn't feel like engaging in a sexual act with his partner, which is going to take concentration and effort, but he still needs that release, he's going to turn to porn. What is excessive? I have no clue about that one, honestly. I just think there's a problem when he chooses to watch instead of being with his wife on a regular basis.
My opinion is that everyone is different. I've never been one to really NEED porn to masturbate to during my hard-up single years. I might have looked at it 1 - 4 times a month.
Once I met my wife (dating) and gotten married, the time I might view porn averages to about 1 time every 6 months (often when she is away visiting her mother for 1 - 2 weeks at a shot).
They are happy with their wives in most ways. They look at porn because they are not having all of their needs and or fantasies fulfilled. Some choose porn as a substitute for what they don't get because they do not want to actually cheat with another woman. Others choose to look at porn situations which they fantasize about, but are afraid or ashamed to express these fantasies to their wives.
