If you know someone who reads erotica, do you look down on them?

If you found out that someone you know reads erotica or porn like on adultfanfiction.net or literotica, would you think of them negatively? Do you read them? What do you think of people who do think it's a negative thing?

I personally think it's good to read erotica, healthy too. Especially when reading with a partner. As long as you're not obsessed over it.

Update:

@Camille : Just by reading erotica, a man can beat a woman? How powerful. You should maybe read an erotica or two, some of them are by woman.

    I wouldn't look down on them. It would be hard to look down on myself ...

    a pair of issues i could want to place available. at the start, i don't be responsive to approximately people, yet individually I choose a e book not have too plenty element. as an instance, in pratchett's books, characters are fairly defined in any respect, it aspects a huge gamble to type your very own opinion approximately what the character could appear like. Secondly, i don't think of there is something incorrect with photograph intercourse scenes. in fact, I relish them, with the aid of fact it does not experience like my literary cloth is treating me like a three 3 hundred and sixty 5 days old, treading gently around such subjects. Your tale sounds interesting, and that i could be delighted to confirm it on the cabinets sooner or later. i could easily evaluate buying it (nonetheless this could economic business enterprise extra on how long that is, 80,000 phrases did not help me visualise how thick it may be yet I digress) besides, reliable success with all of it and stuff, and with a bit of luck i would be waiting to study it it gradual.

    People can read anything they want.

    I would think someone who read nothing but erotica wasn't very deep, but if it's one of many things someone reads, I don't see a problem.

    Like any other kind of literature, some of it is good and some is bad.

    People read what they read. It's no concern of mine. There is nothing wrong with porn or with erotica. People who find it objectionable, well, that's their opinion.

    I would look down on them if I could see what they were reading. Or I could ask them to hold it up.

    I could care less what others read. To each it's own.

    It is filthy. It is degrading to women. And men who look at pornography mistreat women and beat women up.

    It is unhealthy and you need to stop looking at sick magazines like that.

    It will lead you into sexual encounters with perverts and terrible drugs. that whole thing is the devil's trap. If you do not believe in the devil, then you are foolish because he will suck the life out of you using eye candy. It is just so dumb to get into that kind of stuff.
