I never think of my partner when I j/o. That would be entirely self-defeating. If I wanted to think of my fiancee, I'd just go have sex with her. If I'm cranking one out on my own, then I'm going to think of all the women I can't actually go and have sex with.
This would more or less fall under the category that Aristotle terms "catharsis." In other words, I am never seriously tempted to cheat on my fiancee, nor am I frustrated at monogamy, by virtue of expressing my desires for other women to orgasmic satiation via masturbation. A healthy re-channelling or sublimation of sexual impulses, if you will. And very useful.
All of this, in any case, is done while looking at porn, anyway.
