    A woman that was born biologically female.

    And why do you prefer a cis woman? Are YOU a cis-woman?

    I prefer one because an opposite sex accountability partner virtually eliminates the chance of getting a same sex attracted male. No I’m not a cis woman.

    And you don't see anything wrong with man looking for a cis-woman to be his accountability partner with respect to a lust addiction?

    Nope. After all, people always say men & women CAN be just friends and/or strictly platonic.

    While I agree men and women can be platonic friends, an AP might need to be able to listen and talk about sexually explicit things which would cross a line for many. A woman might also make you feel more shame or you may not respect her opinion given your misogynistic bent of porn addiction. Are you afraid you might be gay?

    I don’t have fear of shame from a woman, not even a concern for me, if it was I would not request a woman AP.

    Same thing with your Mysogynistic claim that I wouldn’t respect her opinion. Again, if these were concerns for me I wouldn’t ask for a woman AP.

    As for the gay thing, no fear of gay men, and I’m definitely not afraid I could be one, lol I know what I like. I simply think it’s not unreasonable to believe that male AP’s are the best choice for myself.

    I agree it’s not unreasonable that a female ap would work and maybe, better than a male. What I’m curious about is your why. Why you think a female would work or why that’s what you’re looking for. You already seemed defensive that I mention a misogynistic bent ( you do realize just bring a porn addict gives you a misogynistic view? Right?) hell even I’ve got some misogynistic views, I work hard at curtailing them, but our society is not far removed from when women had to ask permission of their husbands for credit cards! I asked about being gay because you said “ eliminates same sex attraction” which I wondered why that would matter if you have no fear of being attracted back. I’d be your ap… zero possibility of attraction. But, I guarantee, you would not like my input.
     
  12. I think an accountability partner of the opposite gender to you could work depending on what you were looking for from them. The right kind of woman could offer a different view from a man, potentially be harsher and less likely to tolerate excuses. At the same time, a woman cannot fully understand a man's perspective no matter how hard they might want to or try to, so it might be harder for them to relate to specific issues. The reverse is also true of course.

    Yep, it will take an exceptional woman of above average abilities. I’m not holding my breath but I figured I’d give it a shot.

    No I don’t share that view that porn is Mysoginistic. Porn actresses do that of their own free will and can quit at anytime. That’s a topic for a different thread though.

    Oh yeah, gotta add, no female AP’s that are confirmed Misandrists either, it’s a very important standard.

    In 2 years of working with sex workers, I only met 1 who wanted to do what they were doing. The rest had been coerced or forced into that life and felt trapped and hopeless and could not see a way out. Both male and female. Not all are there of their own free will. Acknowledging this may or may not help in your recovery.

    Point is they are not currently being held at gunpoint to be in that lifestyle, they have a choice to leave, so no I don’t agree with your premise.

    True, much like you, they continue doing something they hate. You both have choices.

    That is the most reasonable abbreviation.
