While they show off their hand as the only solution, they're missing exactly what a woman and a man in their complexity are and what they can achieve, because it's easier to not as they don't care about the union that forms, the trust and bond between two people and the work done to succeed and have enjoyment in many ways. .
You are 31 years old and just entering a new relationship. It sounds like you are still in the honeymoon phase and having lots of sex. Good for you
Come back when you are 55 and tell me if your new husband is still the same guy or if your sex lives haven't changed,.
I am not prescribing fapping for all men? we males discover what works for us. For some men the vagina is still the only place to consumate their sexual urges when they reach a certain age. For others the hand comes in "handy". A lot of this stigma over fappings comes partly from christian morality stemming from biblical warnings against men spilling their seed and partly from feminism and the anti-porn and objectification of women.
I would say the best more important part of being his is the fact that he works it out.
But it seems for you the hand has replaced the wife and it's regarded as better because it's different and easier.
Be careful what you wish for, there are people in the world, rare, but there are, who don't fall out of love. I'm one of them. I've been through a lot of trauma, lack of connection with my exes for years, yet my feelings never ceased regardless of years passing by and things changing drastically. 4 years and 7 months tops without failure, while exes usually fell out within 4-6 months.
The only reason why I wouldn't have it would be that I would be dead. Even if my libido stops, and ability, it won't stop my enjoyment of having such special moments with the one I love. What's your excuse?
Also, you say that things get harder, but there are sexologists to pay, even if you run out of ideas in your adventure of a lifetime, there are specialists who can help, therapists who can work out things getting distant.
Our libido isn't constant, you don't know what you're talking about, you don't know anything about our struggles, ofteness and health. But I can tell you sex was never easy for me either and will continue to be a challenge more than it probably was for you and others, it continues to be easy for you from a physiological point of view at your age. The reason for you is different. I long have been wanting to know, because I've seen you talk about it before, but why do you treat your wife like she's no good?
Meanwhile you have proven to be a pretty fair friend and person except some things you say aren't right about women. It's confusing. Why would you care nothing about your marriage anymore?
I'm no feminist, I'm anti religion [how about you?], I'm anti-porn for other reasons than the ones you can think of, some of which i already talked about, and I don't venerate seed [except special cases], I think seed is dangerous in certain situations. I also don't value objectification of women [who would anyway?], but I think sexualizing of women and not only women, in every media I especially am bothered with when I'm in a commitment is unnecessarily present and noticed. i also think equality is lacking, in that regard, like I already said, there are too many women and men feel entitled to stare regardless of their situation, their interest in someone or their real plans, which is reality after all.

Some partners see solitary masturbation as a form of disloyalty, if they expect to share sexual experiences with you. You can read about people going "no fap", lots of good feedback.
if somebody had an enthusiastic attractive sex partner, why would they fap?
Well, if I want to have sex but my boyfriend isn't up to it...then that is a viable option. Or if I get the urge and he's at work. Or if I want to experiment and explore things a little myself so I can get more ideas of what feels good and can communicate that to my boyfriend.
Seeing it as a form of disloyalty seems puritanical. Though I suppose I could see it being an issue if ones partner refuses sex with them most of the time but masturbates all the time instead.
As soon as the boyfriend is gone they start to fap? why is life all about that?
That's like as soon as something is unavailable from them, you find a replacement or get with someone else. [Resemblant of Dogs?] What about waiting and looking forward to it? What about it being special and shared? If i want it I'm puritanian and have my own dogma? And how about your dogma? Aren't those people quite dog-matic about getting it either way? Woof woof.
Urges are urges, temptation is temptation. Otherwise we'd go around screwing everything and everyone. Choice.
I never was interested in sex dolls or any kind of sex toys like fleshlights and never used them. IMO, they do nothing to replace the sense of connection and intimacy with a woman. In fact I find many of these toys unsettling.
I use pornographic films and my hand because I have no other options. When I do watch porn, I need to see that the women are expressing enthusiasm and pleasure while having sex. I know its acting but they have to be convincing. It is not like having a connection with someone, but it is the only thing I can get. That's what I think you are failing to understand: men using sex dolls don't prefer them to actual women, they just can never get actual women so they have no other choice.
I feel the exact same about toys. With exception of some things made to aid like lubrifiants and other certain things that aid in keeping erections longer.
I think you are confusing me with another writer, I never addressed my opinion for single men who have no other option. My opinion is strictly linked to certain committed relationships where any of the members actually think it's important.
I was aware most people feel entitled and have a different way of seeing commitments, and I have dated women with the same viewpoint, so it's not linked to men, it's a thing that's genderless. And I didn't expect people to actually get me, or to find many who would be able to go through with it for longer than a while. And was partly the reason why I haven't had hopes of being happy in relationships and finding someone to match more my wavelength of thinking.
You know, while you are lonely, and trying to fix it, it's possible that you're making somebody else lonely, too.

Well my boyfriend bought me a vibrator and encouraged me to use it and we are monogomous so neither of us really feel like it's anything like a replacement or getting with someone else.
He doesn't have as high of a sex drive as me, so it helps if I'm not soley relying on him to pleasure me, we've talked about it and that's our conclusion. It is still special and shared when we do it together, because it involved the person I love and there are plenty of things we do when having sex I can't do by myself. The self pleasure is more like just something to get my body to stop feeling like I want sex so I can get on with whatever I was doing before the urge showed up.
That said I don't think your perspective is wrong...I can see how waiting to make it more special and that kind of thing could work for other people. When you put it that way it does not sound puritanical, the important thing is for couples to do what works for them as there is no one size fits all approach.
I understand what you're saying and your situation doesn't seem ideal at least in terms of matching libidos but seems to work for you two. I think if he shares intimacy with you it's great. Sometimes low libido can have different causes, and can potentially be aided. Have you thought or talked about it?

The reasons we (may) use porn has nothing to do with how much we love our wives or partners.
1. We enjoy sexual excitement and release and porn delivers.
2. We like sexual variety and porn has an endless selection to choose from.
3, In the world of porn, our virtual sex partner will do anything we want them to do. And they will enjoy it. And they never get tired. And they are always ready for more.
4. The real world has a lot of stress and uncertainty. The world of porn is predictable and controllable.
Even when our sexual partner is available and interested most of the time (which can be a problem at any age, but particularly as we get older), there are always those times when we're hot to trot but our partner is tired tonight. A quick visit to the home office and a harem of available playmates awaits our commands.
5. In a world where we are all so busy with work, home, and family, a pornographic affair may seem like some small comfort for those who are cut-off and lonely.
People who like or need variety, can't live without don't have to get married. It's not a title or a perk, it's a commitment to a person. For lifetime.
Why are they interested in variety if they want a family life? Peculiar.
Most people enjoy release. Doesn't make you any more special or deliverant.
Most mass media has multiple episodes. Most people have downsides, including you. But they work it out, except you? Why is that.
I choose an imperfect human over your perfect harem. That's how I view commitment and that's how I view switching from my former poly relationship to a monogamous one. There are always excuses to explore poly relationships by choice whether it's mentally, physically, visually. If people want poly they can have it but they should not pretend they're not exploring it in that way.
Love, petty love, or care is never enough to make a relationship work. Even google knows that.

Since porn would theoretically affect you with nothing, let's imagine a situation which would, for example your wife goes out all the time, lets men kiss her and spends time with them letting them pet her all over, talks about you to them in terrible ways, like you never have sex with her, you're no good in bed, and you also don't care about her feelings, comes home, doesn't even say hi to you and goes on about her day.
She sees this as common behavior and would say you're a woman hater if you disagreed. Isn't that a bit odd? What you think doesn't matter anyway, she's gonna keep quiet about it at home.
Take it a level lower if this doesn't bother you. Make it so that it bothers you.
Can you see what a difference in opinion in people makes? How about the feelings that brings? Now think back to the significance of marriage. Much different.
Oh and before you say, I know you can learn to live with anything, if you have to.

You can gain a lot of insight into women by reading trashy women's magazines. A favourite of mine is take-a-break.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Take_a_Break_(magazine)
I don't make it a habit. But of course I found them interesting enough, to peruse. ^ You're right , you do get an insight ,of a sorts.

Well on that side note, I found this article, not sure if it's written by a woman or a man though but it seems to have good insights on how a woman could please their man, based on me being a man:

I especially agree with the one that says to leave the lights on. What's with women always wanting to do it with the lights off... I can hardly see anything that way.

Quite a few points (and they are good ones) but I think you answered your own question (see highlighted bit). As I said, come back and debate this topic when you are 55.
My wife's libido has also changed. It would seem women also lose their libido. On the odd occasion I show my affection but if my touch becomes sexual she resists. So both of us reached that stage, But it doesn't change our love. Love isn't reliant on sex when you have lived together for 20 years and know each other so closely. Once you experience that Rexi then your perception of love changes from physical to spiritual.
On the matter of sexualising women? women are free to express their sexuality. How does porn harm them? We men are visual creatures, Has it effected me psychologically? I don't know? I am always polite to women and I'm not an aggressive individual.
