yes, it is unethical. But who can resist?

Not if you want to get kicked in the balls.

I don’t see the harm in that. Then again, I have nothing to hide and no one is snooping on me that I’m aware of. I found out my ex was cheating on me accidentally once when I logged on to his computer. Found a love letter. Ouchy.

I’d say unethical.

Um, I think it’s like secretly looking through someone’s medicine cabinet. Probably frowned upon, but a lot of people do it and don’t feel bad about it. If there’s nothing bad to find, then there should be no problem. I’ve never done it, but I’d like to think I could spot a crippling porn addiction before it got out of hand.

Not only unethical for her, but totally inappropriate!!!
… oh, you mean; him checking her history. That’s ok.

If a guy is looking through your computer he is either looking for naked pictures of you/your friends/anyone, or he thinks your cheating on him.
Girls want to see how much porn you are looking at, what kind of porn it is, who you are talking to, if you talk to your ex, if you talk to your mom, and what your fetishes are.
If said guy finds naked pictures of you, he jerks off and thinks “sweet she’ll probably make naked pictures with me” If you’re cheating well, then your fucked.
The girl will always find porn, random pictures of other naked girlfriends, and a host of all sorts of things that the guy totally forgot about. Now she either laughs and accepts it or starts in on the poor bastard and tries to change him by making him feel like he’s a sick perv who should be ashamed of himself….blah blah blah, then they break up.
If you read someones diary you will find out some shit that may make you mad and ruin everything. Same rules apply for digital diary’s.

Mmmm…. Yes. No. Sometimes. It all depends. If something incriminating is found, then it is a wholly worthwhile venture. If nothing incriminating is found, well, you’re just a giant douche bag and you need to find some security before you look to have a relationship with anything, even your kitty.

My ex would look through mine all of the time because she was convinced I was cheating on her. Used to REALLY piss me off. She’d also go through my contacts on my phone and question every name she didn’t know. I never has any desire to go through her personal stuff. It’s personal and I don’t really care. Everyone deserves a little privacy, married, significant or whatever. Oh yeah, she’d also get pissed if I looked at porn, but she looked at porn way more than I did. Again, she’s now my ex.

it’s unethical… but not unreasonable!

Who worries about ethics when there are secrets to be uncovered?

my bf started showing me saved chat logs between him and some “old friends” when we got together. mistake. the closer we got the more interested i got in his past and…let’s just say i got my fill of 3am arguments over something dumb i read while he slept. snooping is for “no-lives.”

I dont think theres anything wrong with it if your motive is innocent. I check my boyfriends history just to see what he looked at and what turns him on. I get excited when i think about him masterbating, and i like to see what he was looking at or thinking about when he was doing it. I ask him about it too when he doesnt use porn. im just a curious person when it comes to my partner’s sexuality, I want to fulfill him and knowing about what gets him off is part of it. Id never look to hold it against him later or make him feel guilty…. if he was more into porn than sex with me, i suppose then i might feel differently… but i dont think that happens all that frequently.
