Does being a fan of SG make me untrustworthy?

Is it wrong to admire and respect women that enjoy posing nude? I've always had an admiration for women that enjoyed being nude in front of the camera. Women that feel empowered and free to take part in erotic/nude material.

Yet, in the last five years I've been belittled about my views.

I've rarely met or dated a woman that understood my viewpiont. Most that I have dated would become jealous if I looked at SG or anything like it.

Two months ago I ended a five year relationship with a very over jealous person.SG has been the closest thing that I've found, to what I would create, if I had the chance. Unfortunately, I have rarely been able to login and look around for more then 5-10 mins or so once every few days in the last two years. The last 6 months I barely got to login. I think I completely missed out on meeting up with members SG Pittsburgh... anyway my point is I always wanted to be a part of the SG "community" but was unable to.

Never have I cheated on a girlfriend or even want to. Hell I'm not even comfortable with dating more then one girl at a time.

Maybe I'm weird but I don't need to be touching myself or even aroused to enjoy nudes/erotica. That does happen sometimes of course though Since I was in my early teens I saw the female form as the ultimate form of art. The female nude to me is infinitely amazing and inspiring.

For me being with someone is very separate from looking at a nude woman. Of course I understand most women find this hard to believe and think it's because I want to be with someone else. I'm not a swinger or anything but I'm fairly open minded and I'm not offended by much. Is it odd to hope to meet someone that is the same way and wants to be monogamous?

If my girlfriend had a job photographing males/females nude or in sexual situations it wouldn't bother me. If my girlfriend was a nude model I'd be ok with it, in fact I'd be proud of her.

So like the topic says.... does being a fan of SG make me untrustworthy?

Is it unrealistic to want to meet someone that is trustworthy and trusting that enjoys and respects erotic art/nudes or even porn? Is it asking to much to meet a woman that likes looking at other women/men and wants a monogamous relationship?

Please understand that when I do meet someone I want her to be the only woman for me and feel that way as well. I want to have undying trust, respect and love despite my wacky brain.

Tell me how you feel eh? I'd like to here from some SG girls or female fans but everyone is welcome.

Are you ok with your boyfriend/girlfriend looking at SG etc.?
Is it important to you that you can continue modeling or being a member of this site with the ok of your significant other? Are willing to stop nude modeling or looking at the site if your other half was not ok with it?

If what I've said about my views ring true with yours and doesn't cry bullshit let me know. I'd love to hear from people that feel the same way cause right now I feel like an oddball...

Also I'm not looking to date at the moment and that's not why I posted this. Just hoping to here some views and opinions from site members now that I'm free to use it!

No, not in and of itself.

Being an untrustworthy person would make you untrustworthy.

SG is just a site with naked chicks and forums/galleries. How you choose to interact with SG in relation to the rules and agreements, spoken or unspoken, that you have with your significant other will determine your level of trustworthiness.

That's up to you guys to figure out, not us. Communication is the key.

Why do you feel the need to justify such a minor, harmless thing to anyone? And furthermore, did you think you'd get an answer other than "no" here? I think you've put WAY too much thought into it. Way, way, way too much.

Well of course... but understand a lot women, at least in my experience, would not like SG. A lot of women would be offended if their boyfriends were interested in SG. So I'm curious how the female members and models feel about it. I was interested in reading view points of females that like this site and from guys that don't view this site just to jerkoff.

With my wife it was never an issue. She isn't interested in it but doesn't mind at all that I am a member.
I did have a friend who was sceptical about my belonging to a porn site and leary of my "porn" friends. What I did was show her the site. I had her sit with me for a while and see what it was about. That changed her mind and she is now a member.

Some people of course are always going to be threatened by it or disapprove. Honestly I tend not to get along with those people anyway so I really don't care.

Well I would have to say no their's nothing wrong with it. I could understand why you're girl would be upset with you looking at this site. Mainly she might not understand why you have to look at this site when you have her. No matter how times you told her it wasn't sexual; she may still be thinking that though. She more than likely had been cheated on or had some self-esteem issues. I eman who doesn't have some so she may have been intimidated.

One thing is to remember is that this is just a website. And while this is a great community with real cool people. Don't put too much stake in it. You need some human interaction, and maybe this woman wasn't someone you'd want to be with. But don't let this website get in the way of your relationships with people.

i never knew red pandas were so analytical.

I'm a female and I've (very obviously) just joined this site, and I love it to bits. I love the way the female form is portrayed as art. I've had a few weird stares from friends when I mention the site, like I'm some big porn fiend. One of those weird stares has come from a friend that has the biggest collection of hardcore porn around. Something hyporcritical is going on here, I think.

Anyways. I can understand why some women would be offended or feel threatened by their boyfriends or partners looking at this site. Me, personally, I'm not. So much so that I brought my boyfriend a gift account. Its rather interesting (in a geeky way) to find which girls are his faves and compare them with my faves. SG has never been a problem for us.

I trusted my boyfriend just as much as ever when he re-joined SG. I probably wouldn't have known about it if it wasn't for him. It's only a website, it's not the most likely scenario that he'd meet up with one of the girls and have sex so I don't see why I should be bothered if he talks to them. If he did get to meet them I'd probably be proud of him!
With me being a girl, perhaps he should be more worried that I'm a member, but he seems to like the fact we can talk about nice ladies together!

The people who have a problem with guys looking at porn possibly have self-esteem or trust issues so if they're great in every way apart from disapproving of SG, perhaps it's best to make them feel absolutely beautiful and loved, and show them that there's nothing to be wary of on the site.

+1 i just scrolled up and noticed the same thing..

Funny isn't it? Furry critters attract other furry critters I guess.

Anyway I guess I made my post a little over the top and way too long but oh well... This was my first post

In response to some of the replies...
Relationships in real life are of course more important than this website or any other. But what is even more important to me and I think most people, would be the freedom to be themselves and not have to hide things from the person they want to be with.

I enjoy hearing from people like SmokyGough and Wendoo, not because I didn't think there would be women like this but it's just nice to really be able to read it. It gives me more hope about finding someone thats right for me.

Stop going out with people who don't want you looking at naked women or stop looking at naked women. It's not complex. Guys have been canceling their Playboy subscriptions for decades now.

and,

Come on, who hasn't? It's a part of living in the world.

I can't believe the term PORN has been used in reference to this site.

It's ART. The whole concept which motivated its inception was primarily philosophical.

I'm just going to stop there.

I'll second that.

^ ^ ^ looks like you thirded it!

There is no reason why something cannot be both porn and art. And there is nothing wrong with the term porn.
