Debate: is watching porn cheating?

I know everyone has their own opinions, I am curious what you guys think.  Is it ok to masturbate watching porn, or is that a form of betraying your significant other?  Or is it circumstancial, and up to the people in each individual relationship to decide together?

how do you mean competitive ? they tried to sleep with your man ? if that is the case you need to do a better job of selecting your friends . if your man cheated than i say good riddence to them both and they did you a favor .
i assume every guy she meets is going to try to sleep with my wife .i want her intensely so why wouldnt others ?  but that has nothing to do with my wife . my wife assumes the same thing of women .
porn is not an alternative to women or sex with your wife . porn is stroking material . fantasy ideas . the excitement of dreaming of sex with women we know we will never have . but it is not reality .  there is no competition .

and really , if your husband prefers to watch porn over sex with you isnt that a big hint that he is no longer attracted to you and its time to move on ?

That's so wrong it is a lie, to the relationship if it were just masturbating then that's normal behavior but when you need to look at other woman other than your partner to get off sexually and do it on the sly or even if she knows about it that's a road to disaster and its not  being very loyal to your partner. the 2 of you should be the only sexual arousers in your sex life together.

It's been proven over and over that most actions weather good or bad originate in the mind.
As a Christian, I believe this even more so as I witness all the events going on throughout the world. Jesus said it best when He said in Matthew 5:27-32 You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery.'
But I say to you that every one who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. And every one who divorces his wife, except on the ground of unchastity, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

Though I'm not perfect, I do my best to follow the way that will lead to peace and also help whoever my wife would be to also strive to be better and we support each other with God's love which is far beyond what any human can provide thus avoiding all the pitfalls that come with looking at porn and other addictions, weather people admit them or not.
