Followup
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for the question,
This may reflect a curiosity on his part. Whether this is normal is something that is quite debatable. I would say though that if you feel this activity is starting to affect your relationship with him that you should explore this together in a discussion with a therapist.
It would be reasonable to sit down with your husband together and talk about this particular concern to see if you can come to a common understanding as well. It may take some time as well as some challenging discussion but I am confident that you will be able to work together to maintain a healthy relationship in the future.
Sincerely,

Been there and done that. Is this acceptable? Is it normal?

Detailed Answer:
Regarding "normal" or 'acceptable" this is open to interpretation. This is not extremely common but it does occur in a small percentage of individuals. Only you can decide if this is acceptable. If it's not acceptable to you then this is something you would need to address directly with your husband to decide what the next appropriate step should be for your relationship.

Detailed Answer:
I think you have answered the question for yourself - it seems this is not acceptable to you. In some relationships this may be perfectly acceptable - it depends on each partners comfort level.
If you are feeling desperate about this then you should try to work with him to see if there is a way he would consider discontinuing this habit.
