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.

Is gooning even an actual thing? It sounds more like a comedy bit that got taken too seriously and became something "everyone knows" than something that actually happens. Like "kids eat Tide Pods" or "furries are using litter boxes at schools."

Technically yes, but it’s a very niche kink that not that many people actually engage in. Like imagine if vore was blown up in media until everyone was worried about the vore epidemic. Thats about the same level.
