Lisa Appleton is back sharing her tips and tricks to help spice up Daily Star Online readers’ sex lives.
Last week, she was helping someone whose boyfriend’s dad tried it on with her – and she liked it.
Lisa advised her that lockdown can really heighten emotions so to try and not be drawn into it and steer clear as it was going to cause too much upset.
This week, she is helping someone whose husband has a Covid-19 porn addiction.
‘Hubby only wants sex in masks due to Covid-19 porn addiction’
Dear Lisa,
With plenty of time on everyone’s hands at the moment, my hubby of seven years has been watching a lot more porn.
He’s always been a fan of pornography and I’m no prude, so have no issue with him watching every now and then, as I usually work away a lot and I appreciate he has urges.
But with us both working from home during the lockdown, he’s had more time to watch it, and I think it’s become a bit of an addiction.
We’ve always been very open with each other when it comes to matters of the bedroom, and he admitted a couple of weeks back that his new favourite porn category is ‘Covid-19 porn’.
I’d never heard of it to be honest, but it involves people having sex wearing masks and rubber gloves etc, so I guess is a bit S&M-like.
He asked to replicate it in the bedroom, and while I was a bit taken aback at first, I thought why not?! So we had sex both wearing the PPE gear we have at home – obviously washing it before we went to the supermarket etc.
We’ve done it a few times since too as my hubby seems really into it. But while it was exciting at first, I know feel a bit weirded out by it, as I wanted to have ‘normal sex’ earlier this week, but he asked me to put the mask on.
I don’t want him to think I’m ruining his fun, but I do think his love of this particular type of porn may be taking over.
Should I say something to him or am I overreacting?
Thanks

I mean, watching porn, it’s so accessible and a lot of people watch it and a lot of couples do this and it’s acceptable.
Now you’re in lockdown and the Covid-19 porn addiction is a bit of a worry as we’re trying to adjust to all these new changes in our lives.
It’s two-metre distancing, not being able to go outdoors much, do this, do that and adjust and now we’ve got all these crazy things going on in our sex lives.
And sex is a very important, healthy part of relationships to keep it alive and keep it strong, and it’s good for your mind and for your body.
I mean wearing the PPE masks and rubber gloves is a turn-off. It is weird. Because a) it would remind me of the hospitals and what’s going on there and b) it would freak me out. You can try it once or twice, but if he keeps going on about that, I’d be a bit concerned.
It’s not normal and it’s not natural and you want healthy sex.
So, I’d discuss it. I mean, I take it you’re washing hands, you’re keeping clean, you’re keeping safe and so you don’t have to wear a mask in the bedroom, but porn channels are probably doing it to promote healthy, safe sex.
But you know, the next thing is something else weird will come out, like you won’t be allowed to even have sex. It’s just a bit too weird and a bit too extreme.
I would just have a chat with your husband and say you feel it’s just gone a step too far, you want some normal sex again, it’s turning you off and it’s not turning you on.
He’s just got to understand hasn’t he? You’ve just got to have some normality in your lives.
So, just have a chat with him and you’re not being selfish.
He seems to be enjoying it a lot more than you are and I’d find the Covid-19 sex very weird.
So have a chat and tell him to come back down to earth and not get too carried away.
