What is the Forum Consensus concerning the keeping of a Mistress?

also, I do wonder about the "celibacy" practice among religious folks too, but one could also view perving to PORN as "creepy" too

probably like how when one starts eating clean, after a while they are repulsed by unhealthy food consumption and find it repulsive to observe those junk-food junkies like me who enjoy a tasty pleasure

Any serious meditator wants to eliminate desire. Having a family, which is the point of intercourse gets in the way of that. Obvious, no?

If you have a family there is mostly no money nor time left for personal desires lol

It is often a life of serving others first.
I think if done attentively it can curb a man's desires and keep him in check. If he values his wife he will keep his sexual desires in check. If he values his kids he will keep his personal and financial desires in check.

If men are allowed to run completely free there is no telling the desires and troubles we can stoke and stumble into imo
At least this is how it seems for me

Of course not all marriages nor family life is the same.

Interesting thread, thanks Raskal

I will use Japan as example here. We can observe a PORNified society which also struggles with an aging population and LOW reproduction rate.....so one could connect the possible dots there to observe this as one of the many damaging effects of PORN in how it inspires laziness in the human mating process....easier to just look at PORN or rent a prostitute than to put in the effort to make oneself "desirable"?

and look at USA following closely behind where the MAGAtard PORNwatcher complains about how the ethnics are out-producing them as they go the way of the neanderthal. Those Ethnics are also observed to value the FAMILY support system and so tend to favor LARGE family units.

.....BUT I just saw some ad on the youtube about a new Kardashian type series featuring Muslim women, so there we can observe the nefarious "SEX SELLS" Elites attempting to find a new revenue stream by CORRUPTING very conservative traditionalist Muslim communities

so it is why, as a thought exercise, I considered to inspire discussion here and elsewhere, the matter of the mistress to test the waters of thinking and it seems in general that people find PORN a lesser evil than having a Mistress similar to how they may observe DIVORCE to be a lesser social evil than homosexuality......yet, I am of the opinion that PORN is the more damaging to society and that it would be far better for society for a fellow to maintain a mistress if his women requires it due to herself finding it better for the relationship for whatever reason and/or because she is not doing her job as a partner to satisfy her man's needs

now this does not mean I encourage people to do it if there is no need for it, then that would just be an expression of GREED, but if there is some LACK in the relationship, then a private "don't ask don't tell" mistress situation I believe is much better for society than the PORN industry

Interesting thoughts.
