I hope we all know this and are just doing it as a bit, but sometimes I do see shit on this website that makes me go “Oh y’all are genuinely just weird prudes”

The “gooner epidemic” is not real, gooning is an incredibly niche kink that very few people engage in.

“Porn addiction” is basically non existent and affects such a small portion of the population as to not be relevant. The idea that most people have in their heads about porn addiction is propaganda made up by evangelicals.

We do not live in an overly-sexually-liberated time. There is not an excess of sexual content or exposure to it.

Most of the time when people talk about “the gooner problem” what they’re actually talking about is a mix of two unrelated things, people living normal sexually liberated lives, and undersocialized young men that don’t know how to interact with people.

Sex is good. We should be having more of it. We should encourage healthy, safe sex featuring whatever kinks you and your partner(s) consent to. Don’t fall for puritan propaganda comrades.

what is wrong with you to equate someone looking at nudes or whatever with an actual assault? like i literally don't even want to describe "actual assault" in greater detail because that in and of itself feels gross

Like you're over there going, whatever, chud, reactionary, at me, like Im being gross for saying "these things are not equivalent" but I think what you are doing is way, waaaay, waaaaaay more gross, especially when saying "looking at porn at work isn't sexual assault" isn't the defense of looking at porn at work you seem to think it is

You: this person is gross, they don't think looking at porn at work is a big deal

Me: this person is gross, they think looking at porn at work is equivalent to one of the most deeply violating acts a person can experience

But woops im not a mod so im wrong i guess

you do understand there are different types & degrees of sexual assault / sexual harassment, right

yes but okay, I can't use the specific word, because it is word filtered, and trying to describe the act without the more specific word feels gross, but that is literally my point. It is not the equivalent of r word sexual assault which was literally the opinion I was seeing

Yeah but it is definitely more than just "sexual harassment" so I don't know how else to quantify it. Like literally exposing your coworkers to pornographic content is way more than just harassment I don't know what to call it but we literally had some weirdo on here defending against people calling it harassment not assault so it seemed like you were defending that individual by bringing up what I can only assume is a reference to that guy. If anything you started with a strawman and I didn't bother to correct you but now I am and I think your response to me is also indignant and suspect.
