I have a very different opinion on that one, and I absolutely detest those sites that actively encourage cheating on your partner for a "quick shag with a local". Granted, porn isn't exactly cheating with another partner, but you're still looking at another girl while you're getting what you get out of it.
Okay, getting a bit off topic, but I did want to make a quick reply to that last statement. One of the things that often confounds me is women's attitude towards men watching porn. Somehow, they seem to regard it as a form of cheating. Actually, they seem to regard ANYTIME a man does something sex-oriented that isn't centered on her as cheating. That even includes masturbation. But, take a look in the drawer of almost any woman who is over the age of 21 and most likely you will find some type of self stimulating toy. In others, a dildo, or vibrator, or a book of some kind (Fifty Shades of Grey).
LOL. "Women's attitude"? That generalization doesn't even hold true in the small population of this forum. :D The person you're quoting -- who thinks it's bad to watch porn if you're in a relationship -- is a dude, no? Me, I'm a girl, and I have no issue with my partner watching porn. And anyone -- man or woman -- who thinks his or her partner shouldn't masturbate needs a strong cup of mental wake up.
These researchers intended to compare the sexual habits of men who watched porn to those who didn't. But they failed because they couldn't find any who didn't:

Anyway, to steer the subject somewhat back on topic: how do your partners feel about you spending considerable amounts of time staring at, judging (sometimes very, very harshly), fixing, and morphing 3D nude models? In some forums, I've seen people (men and women, customers and business owners) compare it to porn (unless the figure doesn't have nipples or genitals, that is). I find that ridiculous. What I do find interesting is just how perfect many us expect our digital dolls to be.
In this very thread, some of the images posted were dismissed because the girl depicted wasn't the right sort of sexually attractive to some viewers.
Does a figure have to be "doable" to be usable?
