He's not "paying for sex acts". It's all digital.
Digital doesn’t mean it’s not sexual or immoral. Child porn is digital.
Well, and I would have two very different reactions if I found my husband looking at child porn, or found him engaged in a sex act with an actual child.
If you would even consider shrugging child porn off as "just digital", you're seriously messed up. If I ever caught my DH looking at it, I'd immediately turn all evidence over to the police, divorce, and make sure he never saw our kids again.
Omfg. Yes. He’s a pedophile if he’s looking at child porn to get turned on. It won’t just be digital. It’s in his f@cking brain. They are the one group that cannot be rehabilitated...which is why chemical castration is on the table for the egregious ones.

NP. I would hope so, but that's not the point... the point is sexual acts can take place with digital materials.

I mean, it might be a digital image, but it’s illegal/immoral because there is a real child being hurt somewhere. If it were just a cartoon of a child it would be creepy and gross, but not illegal.
What if it's someone just taking pictures of their own kids naked and selling them? The child isn't being "hurt", but it's still illegal and wrong. Still a sex act.
BTW I love how the bar for men is so low that "well it's not child porn!" is an acceptable excuse. If I flirted with men online, my DH would freak out (as would most husbands I know). Hell, my best friend gets screamed at by her DH if she happens to glance at another man, while he'll openly say he's sick of her postpartum body and would rather be sleeping with 18 year olds (all while demanding she sleep with him).

I did something similar when my H was being a creep while I was pregnant. We were on vacation, so I packed up, went home, and moved out. Didn’t move back in until I made it very clear that if it ever happened again, he would lose half his money, half his time with his child, and would never see me again.
I know people will say it’s too extreme but I’ve learned that men don’t GAF unless there are severe consequences. Act like a dog, get treated like one.

FYSA-- your husband will just be more careful the next time he cheats. The only thing your explosive reaction taught him is to be more careful.

Voice your feelings and opinions. It may be time for a reset sort of conversation. Usually we have these conversations at the beginning of relationships to establish our expectations and boundaries for the relationship. In long-term relationships, it is critical to continue to have these conversations over time. It’s okay to have different relationship expectations than other people here on DCUM. Many are okay with porn, and many are not okay with porn. You should be honest and tell your husband that paying for access to specific acts is not something you are okay with. Maybe he doesn’t know you are not okay with since you were already okay with porn?
It's not just porn. It's paying women to perform specific sexual acts that their followers have requested.

Wow. Great way to make excuses for trash behavior, PP. You know he's not going to switch off this stuff the second OP births that baby.
An actually mature, thinking human being with some control over himself and an imagination can manage while waiting for the person he supposedly respects and loves, and without the aid of porn or IRL outside-the-marriage sex. Don't trot out the idiotic "But men are visual creatures and just have to have images for stimulation!" lecture. That makes it sound as if poor little men are such brainless automatons that they just can't function without porn. They can. People like you enable it with your "pregnancy makes it all OK" excuses.
+1. Pregnancy is a temporary situation. Can you imagine if a woman whose husband had, say, cancer said "oh well, guess I gotta go hop on a dating app and flirt with random dudes online since you're too sick for anything! Sorry, but I need nice dates and vacations to get off! You should appreciate it since now you don't have to do it yourself!" She'd be ripped apart.
If you can't deal with setting aside your own needs temporarily due to health reasons, you shouldn't get married.
