Would you let your girlfriend/wife pose topless?

[Amaroq]

What's the difference? I mean, for me the risk of STDs would be a considerable barrier, but fundamentally it seems like the same thing. And it's still millions for half a day's work, if that.

A photo doesn't give you STIs, which you mentioned. Not only that, but it's not like it's going to do me any harm. I'd be getting paid several million for a few minutes without a shirt. That would put food on my table for many months.

[Grizzly Willy]

That's the logic you use to support letting her do that? I guess you'd let her rob a bank or a person as well, right? I mean, it's money.

Logic goes against robbery.

Well, so long as it's professionals who are copulating with the one you supposedly care for, then that's alright then. Dear lord, welcome to the age of the cuckold everyone.

If it was a choice between having sex with strangers picked up off the street in a motel room for money, or her shooting porn for a legitimate company that has been around for a long time and has a good reputation and strict STD screening, which would you choose? I know which one would win out for me, every time.

Would I be "okay" with my "girl" doing porn for a living? Not really, as it would feel a bit skeevy. But ultimately, it's not my decision. It's her's.


Plus, copulation was not the topic of the question, it was posing topless. And yes, I would be completely okay with that.

I beg to differ. In my eyes, a naked photo hardly counts as porn these days. A couple decades ago, sure-- because it was harder to get a hold of/hide/etc. Now-a-days... Different story.

Of course, this is an opinion thread and I stated my opinion on the matter.

Also, sex is totally off-limits to you. Only one man gets that and it's definitely not you, ser. <3

...I'm not Heph. Heph is the guy made famous for "starting" Playboy. So you'd be in a porn mag. Not some tasteful Art piece. You'd be presented as a piece of meat for the pleasure of consumers.

Cuckolds have been in existence since forever. Just because some people have a certain view doesn't make it an entire age.

Eh, I dunno, if they did it before being married to me, probably wouldn't mind as much as if they wanted to do it while married.

I smell straw burning.

As some people have eluded to;
There is no "letting her" do it. She is a human being who has the freedom to make her own choices.

Would it bother me? Not really, because I'm into the idea of sexually open relationships. Do I get jealous? Yes. But Jealousy is just another illogical emotion.

Robbing somebody or a bank is not a logical course of action. The most logical course of action is to earn money through legitimate means because it contributes to a healthier economy and you don't have to worry about being arrested.


EDIT: Emotions are always deliberately selfish.
Sometimes logic is accidentally helpful to society as a whole.

[fadingintofall]

It's not my call to make at all. I'm her lover, not owner. It's her decision.

this. The thread should have ended here.
Would I like it? Probably. But in the end I do not, "Let her," do anything. I support her decisions, or I don't.

Boobs aren't that big a deal outside of the US. Hell they're hardly a big deal inside it. Sure why not.

Honestly, 2.5 Million is a lot. It would feed you for a while.

[Kazlehoff]

Wow, that people are fine with their women being sexually explicit to the world is a little surprising, though not too much so, I guess. I look at it this way:

--If my girlfriend asked me, I would say I don't care and break up with her.
--I would never marry someone who would even remotely think that to be a reasonable act.

I have to say, this poll is kind of continuing my belief that humanity is falling more and more into a crazy state.

i personally think that your belief you have the right to control your significant other in that manner shows how crazy some members of humanity can really be.

Because our bodies are icky and corrupt the young!

Well so long as the one you care for is fucking professionals in a proper environment, then that's what counts. Let me know how it works out if ever it comes to pass.

[Boarwood]

I wouldn't "not let her" because she is not mine to control, but I would let her know in advance that it would mean the end of our relationship. Not a threat or anything, I just don't want to be with someone like that. I'm all about modesty and self-control, and someone who would want to do that is not the girl for me.

Actually, I think question is phrased poorly. "Not let her" implies controlling and belittlement, the better question to ask is probably "be okay with." That gives you the opportunity to say "no" without everyone going crazy.

Fair enough. I suppose I'm a bit more inclined to take some minimised risks (with some safeguards with regards to testing etc) when the rewards are great enough.

Manage it wisely and you can live off it for the rest of your life.

I've noticed. Tells you just how much I care about Playboy and such. Lol.

Shocking, isn't it, that some people don't place as high a price on monogamy as others!

lol Once again, porn (meaning intercourse with others) wasn't even the original topic of discussion in this thread. It was a topless photo.

Or you can just work. Live a middle class economic life with your dignity and never have the paranoia.

Even if you work, you're working to pay for gas to get to work. It's a very vicious cycle. The couple million would give you cushioning so you wouldn't go under and lose everything. (Given the hope you didn't do something absolutely ridiculous.)
