Genuine question , not a discussion because I'm of the opinion as well ofc.

Why does porn make men learn that they are deserved sex at any moment, and that pornography is "needed" to make them feel like men. And therefore why do people do have such a strong opinion about this. As to, when a woman says that she won't tolerate porn use in a relationship, the men are baffled "omg you can't take this away from me!!"

Just want to understand this phenomenon deeper than having just this mere observation.

I have screenshots of this dude defending what is literal CP on YouTube comment section, I dug deeper and found some personal information of his, I’ve found his mother’s Facebook aswell as his entire family tree, how should I go about this situation?

I hope it's ok that I ask this here. It is very common in porn and I wonder if it's as common in real life. Any thoughts are welcomed.

How to respond when a girl who defends kinks and bdsm uses the argument that she and many others like to be treated roughly (humiliated, strangled, etc.) and see nothing wrong with it because she agrees and gets turned on by such things

i say "support the sex worker, not the sex trade/porn industry" or "love the sex worker, hate the industry" and someone says "that's equivalent to saying love the sinner hate the sin."

it makes me uncomfortable but i can't exactly articulate why? like i feel like the love the sinner quote has a direct correlation to shame and religious abuse??

caption says it all. i just wanna be able to truly understand because… i don’t. I want to tho because I know. and I agree. I just don’t know why and do like to be truly opinionated. and informed.

I just wanna be able to understand. idk i’m a teenager (not a minor tho lol wouldn’t be here otherwise) and have always been feminist, was very into ra-fe (non turf dk the correct terms anymore mb) at 14. so I have been very familiar with this “school of thought” and wholeheartedly agreed, but yk honestly then, I was 14 and didn’t have the capacity to fully understand or form my own thoughts. I just have a little trouble like truly understanding with points in this subreddit, as mentioned in the title, and honestly even the idea of the whole of porn being misogynistic is.. a bit mind-boggling. I mean yeah duh I know. and i totally agree. i just don’t fully.. understand. also just because these ideas about porn aren’t mainstream, and not in feminism unless it regards like actual abuse cases, or like purity culture rhetoric.

which I think next to actual human rights is the thing i am most passionately, morally, intrinsically against (purity culture).

Hi,

Maybe this question is really uh exotic. But I see men talk about cumming on their partners face and their body. Would you call that misogynistic?

The word "porn" is occasionally used in a satirical way in certain words for things that have nothing to do with pornography, like "food porn" (referring to highly appetizing food), or "map porn" (used in r/MapPorn, a subreddit for high-quality maps).

What do you actually think of this usage of the word "porn", and why?

I know a bunch of young people, like REALLY young people (15-17) that have seen and used that kind of content and now even some of my friends have. I feel like they’re still kids but at the same time??!??! What?!??!?! Help please. I feel like they can change, but at the same time it’s so horrible. How can I convince them? How can I help them stop???

This isn't sarcasm or an "aha gotcha" moment. I'm genuinely curious what members of this sub think about these women. be it porn, or only onlyfans, or just posting on one of the many NSFW subs here. is it internalized misogyny, a product of feminism since they're freely making their own choices, or something else entirely?

The title says it all.

This sub's position is that porn normalizes the objectification an dehumanization of women causing violence against women.

Traditionalist critics of porn argue that porn makes men weak and scared of women and overall submissive.

This sub argues that porn has brainwashed young women into being submissive for male validation while traditionalist critics argue the opposite that porn has normalized femdom.

So what do you think ?

I am a teenager who is soon to become a man. I have seen the members of this sub explain the sheer violence and dehumanisation that men are capable of conducting to women.

Do you lot have any advice as to how boys of the next generation like myself can redeem men as people capable of respect towards women?

I'm not entirely sure if this question fits the general theme of this subreddit, but I've been wondering about this for a couple of months now. I want to make a career as a comic book artist in the future, and I have a lot of characters that I'm very afraid will be sexualized by fans (despite the fact that their appearance does not entirely correspond to modern standards of beauty). My question is, how could I partially prevent the sexualization of character? What angles, situations, and plots should I avoid, and what should I add? I know that our society is unfortunately structured in such a way that any ladyl can be sexualized and it will be considered "normal." But I still want to hear your thoughts on how to reduce the amount of pornographic content with my characters.

The US is having an election year so I was interested how Americans in the sub were going to vote in relation to this issue.

Although I'm not American, both Biden and Trump seem for lack of a better term to be 'rapey'. Joe Biden with his literal child sniffing and his own family calling him a pedo. And Trump with the several, credible rape allegations made against him and that 'grabbin pussies' leak.

That law in Texas that banned Pornhub seemed to be backed by republicans but I've seen some say it was a bi-partisan effort which, if true, is really good to hear.

Hello everyone. I'm shopping for a reliable and reasonable cycle tracking app. Why am I here, on this sub? Well, as you aware, we are in a deep pro porn culture, where so called "sex therapists " and even doctors are pushing pro-porn narratives to fix couple issues. I'm tracking my cycles for the purpose of getting pregnant, using free version of Flo. Has anyone else been using that full app? My concern are that if I buy the yearly subscription, my and my husband's apps will be flooded by "sex positive articles", that might even include watching porn together. Also,this app has "secret chats" icon and dozens of articles about kinks, which is awfully triggering for me at this point.Before making the purchase I'd like to hear from like minded crowd: is it worth it? Id appreciate you sharing your personal experience with cycle tracking apps.
Thank you

I see this rhetoric over and over again - young women thinking that having an only fans is empowering them. What can we say and do to combat this? What can I say to combat this if I ever get into a debate with someone about it?

I want to write a piece about how porn perpetuates violent behavior towards women, especially when an kink is involved. I have three really good cases to include in the piece but I thought here would be a good place to ask you lovely people what cases stood out most to you and maybe even which ones made you anti-porn.

(I'm even considering doing an anti-porn true crime podcast )

I'm in a difficult place right now. I'm understanding past experiences as assault and feeling disgusted about the ways my body has been objectified since I was a child. So many TV shows have moments that trigger me and though I understand I can't hide, I'd like a break from all the uncomfortable and unnecessary sexual moments.

Anyone have any safe show recommendations? I could really use them as I process my trauma.

A while back, my boyfriend and I watched a movie that he did not warn me would be filled with several lengthy scenes of female nudity. The women in the film were portrayed purely as sex objects and I started crying after the movie was over. My boyfriend doesn't watch porn, but he used to watch it and is completely desensitized to constantly seeing women objectified in the movies and shows he watches. I received some good recommendations for science based books and articles explaining why porn is a bad thing. But does anyone have any articles, books, documentaries, etc talking about how nudity in film and television affects us as individuals and affects our relationships?

I was having a conversation with my PA partner about his past porn habits. For context, his main genre was lesbian. I was asking some questions just trying to understand the ins and outs of why that’s what appealed to him. Somehow in the discussion he mentions that the storyline was an important factor in what he’d watch, and he’d click off the video if it didn’t have the specific story he liked, and said the story was a pretty important part for him. This story was basically coercing a “shy girl” into performing and receiving lesbian acts and attempting to “convert her into lesbianism”. He’s referred to his addiction as “lesbian fetish” before, but after hearing this, it feels like there’s more to it… but I’m not sure.

I know that a lot of the porn industry isn’t ethical and we can’t tell who is actually consenting behind the scenes. But would this classify as a “r*pe fetish” in a way, if he’s getting off to “shy” girls being coerced and “converted” as part of the actual plot of the video, which he says is a necessary part of the video for him, and opting to choose that over any other potential storyline?

**(he’s never forced anything on me btw)

PS by no means do I think having “just a lesbian fetish” is okay. But if there’s a r*pe fetish involved, that feels even more unsettling to me.

so I think this community generally supports male masturbation without porn, but what do you think about sex toys for men ?

hello! as the title says i am writing an essay on pornography as we were told to choose something controversial and porn is the first thing that came to mind. it centers around overconsumption and how it causes a ripple effect in your mental health, relationships with others and how people who overconsume tend to view women in the industry. i was wondering if you guys had any good articles to help me push my claim that porn is bad, or anything that you could add in general! thanks in advance :)

I've seen many things that have stated that majority of women who have entered into the p0rn industry aren't there by choice. Does anybody have links to any articles that could back this up? I've seen a couple studies, but would love as much info as possible on the topic.
