I think this is what he told you to save face about being in a toxic relationship. Unless he has a problem or is looking at something illegal, I'd say the average person looks at porn sometimes and that there is nothing wrong with it. Even if he was being upfront and honest, why would he put something like this on his partner? It makes no sense. I have married friends and have been married for 21 years, I've never heard of anything like this in a healthy relationship.
I think you're probably just not in the circles that do this. Christian men do this all the time, either with their wives as the 'accountability partner' or a male Christian friend. It might be your opinion that there's nothing wrong with looking at porn occasionally but there are large groups that don't believe it is (eg most Christians) and if a married couple with that belief agree to set up an accountability system like this, whose right is it go deny that. Seems a bit like discrimination.
