the idea that people so easily become unable to be turned on by real women or something less than the "ideal" porn female is ridiculous. I am sure that there are cases of this but I don't think this is true entirely as a standard outcome.

Being someone that doesn't have a problem with porn myself, I can tell you without any hesitation that if I'm attracted to a female the fact that I have looked at the stuff does not affect my being turned on by her and also my standards are not even close to being perfectionistic about what women should look like, bodies included. I have never been not attracted to my partner at any time because she was less than what some porn females looked like.

This is not to say that being addicted to porn will not affect relationships or say that there is nothing here to consider. I'm only disputing the idea that many women believe men that look at porn are unable to be attracted to real women or something. It's a common misconception that I believe isn't true much of the time.
Have you actually researched this? Known men who have gone through it? Spoken with professionals about it? I never said "all men who watch porn". I made no such claim and feel insulted that someone would think I meant such a think when I clearly never said it. Reading comprehension is not everyone's strong suit and I guess I just need to get used to that sad fact.
