My wife has shelves and shelves of those books, the ones with the hunky ripped pirate on the cover holding the swooning woman with her heaving breasts bursting out of her corset. Make no mistake, it's porn. I have the 'normal' stuff on my computer. I don't care if she gets off on reading those novels and she doesn't care if I get off on watching movies because there's no sub for the real thing, only if it starts to take the place of the real thing should it ever be a problem.

This is a great post, putting the shoe realistically on the other foot. I rarely hear or read of guys fretting, "Is she reading those books because she's unsatisfied with me?"
Although not because they shouldn't be wondering, I honestly think it's because many are competely unconcerned with the fantasy lives of women (unless it happens to involve another woman, LOL!). But also, if you look at women reading novels like that, it still seems rediculous to imagine she wants a muscle-bound pirate to sweep her away.
Hey though, if guys think it would be fun if your woman shared porn with you, and maybe let that spark things that might otherwise not occur, it couldn't hurt to turn the tables and see what gets her motor running from her "lady porn", and try to somehow inject aspects of that into your love life.
Yeah, dress up like a pirate and take me, baby!
Or maybe, just freakin' dress up.
