Question: 

I know there have been studies correlating porn use with infidelity and it shows a correlation between porn use and the likelihood of being unfaithful due to the emotional distancing from their spouse while using porn. Is it typical for porn to be the “gateway drug” that makes it more likely that a spouse may cheat due to the lowering of emotional attachment to their spouse? Does a more regular use of porn increase the likelihood of cheating?
