This might cause a struggle but: Calling people prudes for not wanting to sexualise themselves is bad (hexbear.net)

"We need to sex up your wardrobe. What do you mean you're not comfortable wearing that? Oh honey, don't be such a prude, all the girls are doing it and you want to be successful don't you? No one's going to watch someone that dresses like their grandma."

I get sick and tired of so called leftists equating exploitation to sexual liberation.

I don't even think the original post you made this post in reference to said anything remotely like that but the title of your post is not wrong.

It gave me that impression though, calling Hexbear prudish and puritan

It gave me that impression though

oh well shut down the entire fucking site, someone got the wrong impression??

Like if anything I think this post kinda validates their claims of Hexbear being prudish and puritan because here you are going "This might cause a struggle but: Calling people prudes for not wanting to sexualise themselves is bad" when the post you're referencing never did that lol.

Swear half the 'struggle sessions' on this site are someone getting the wrong impression from a post and suddenly going "WOW Hexbear is on some shit, there have been multiple posts calling for Hexbears to sexualize themselves and calling Hexbears who don't want to do this prudes"

I get your point lol

Keep in mind that I am very stupid

[–] abc@hexbear.net 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I didn't mean to come off so angry and do not want to imply that I think you are stupid - so apologies if it read like that.

No not at all, you're fine.

My impression is that it is a bit Puritan. I think a lot of young people are tbh, it's the usaian influence which is simultaneously an extremely Puritan culture that also massively commodifies sex.
