That only extends to a point. This isn't like an eyebrow piercing or something - if my girlfriend wants to get a tattoo that I think is maybe a bit ill advised, I'll agree with you. If my girlfriend wants to do porn against my wishes, I'm going to say that's not holding myself or our relationship in very high regard, and if she insists on that course of action I'm going to insist on finding a woman who shows me more respect than that.
Look out for the people you love, but make sure you're one of them.
