Hi, My husband is 62 Years old and for the past 2 months he has been looking at naked women online. He confessed to me last night. I was so hurt. What would cause this? I feel like I have nothing left. Donna

I know it does feel hurtful. But perhaps in his age he is starting to have issues with erections and needs extra stimuli to get it up. I'm sure it has nothing to do with you and is more about him. Try and talk to him without getting too upset

If he has only just started looking at least there was a period of time when he didn't look, some women never get that lucky.

I would be curious as to why as well.

I mean, it's one thing if he's always done it. That would mean it has nothing to do with you, it's just entertainment for him, etc. However, if he only started in the last 2 months, then something else is going on with him.

My off-hand guess is he's starting to feel old, and when he looks at pictures of young women, he can pretend he could still get someone that young. In other words, an ego booster. The only way to know for sure, though, is to ask him why he started looking. Don't sound angry with him when you do it, because then he'll think you're judging him, and refuse to talk about it.

Also, plenty of men will tell you (and other women) that "all men look at naked women", but that's total bull. There's a little thing called self control, but SOME men seem to conveniently forget that. While ALL men may have the urge to look at naked women, some choose to control it.

I remember when family members bought cable for my grandpa and he was in his 80's. He stay up late watching some of those porn channels after grandma went to bed.

I hate to be cliche but that is the way guys are.

I walked in on my fiance and he had a nudist camp picture up on his computer. He quickly clicked off the picture. He apologized and said he had a weak moment. I laughed a said "A weak "moment"??" I'm sure he has had several weak moments.

I take it with a grain of salt anymore. I like seeing muscled up buff guys, like on Game of Thrones, Khal Drogo. I gravitate towards that type. My late husband was that type and then some. It doesn't mean I love my now fiance any less and he is totally the opposite physically. I would never want to hurt my fiance by comparing him to my late husband or another man on tv. I keep my thoughts to myself.

If your husband has never viewed porn before (are you sure??) then ask what him about your relationship and if there is anything he wishes to discuss with you that may be bothering him.

At least he confessed. That is a good start.

Curiosity, sexual arousal, only he can tell you why OP.

He's been looking at naked women all his life, you, women in movies, women in magazines like playboy, women in your magazines in bikinis, ads, naked and sexually suggestive women are everywhere. I don't see why him looking at naked women is a problem. Surely you've seen other naked guys in all your time married.

Or saw some bronzed topless muscley man and thought "he looks nice".

If you want to know why then just ask him why.
