Friendly neighborhood asexual here. Please don't take this the wrong way, I'd actually like genuine answers to this.
Is adults watching porn a good thing now? I've heard a lot about porn addiction and people's brains getting fried by it so to speak. Why do people want to watch it so much anyways?
Fair enough, it wouldn't surprise me if they were overexaggerating whatever actual cases of addiction there might be to try to push their agenda
I apologize for my framing, which intended to get some actual answers as an outsider as to why people get so touchy about teenagers who have the same feelings of sexual attraction doing the exact same things with their sexualities as adults ... if it's so bad for teenagers to do it, surely the same should apply to adults, right? My takeaway from this is that this is just fash being fash and it's probably not really problematic for either, provided that society also needs to give proper sex ed so that people can develop a BS filter to discern fact from fiction.
I'm actually grateful for this last example because I can actually forget that erotic stories are also pornographic content — another layer removed from having to imagine visualizing it can help with the repulsion to be able to see the topic more clearly.
True.
Same. There were only some teachers that did teach us some stuff, and did give us advices like: "Porn is not like real life sex or relationship, don't base your expectations on that." A good thing that happened in my school is that since most classes had more female students than males, most male students were respectful and nice to the female students and teachers (there were bad students but those were very few). Though homophobia (specially towards gay men) was still huge back then (not just in school but in society itself).
Thats nice.
I'm being genuine. I think thats nice and cool.
Remember that "porn addict" is also an accusation leveled at trans women by TERFs
I absolutely agree that oversexualization of trans people is deeply problematic.
That has to do much more with the background radiation of queerphobia and misogyny, which generated both the heavily misogynistic porn and only sees trans women if they're legible as a sexual object.
While I don't think adults watching porn is a bad thing, it's quite clear that some people get addicted to it which is bad (besides the fact the porn industry is fucked up).
I guess it's an easy way to see a fantasy of theirs, and is easy gratification, but idk.
Ayyy, you know what though? Agreed. UNLIMITED GENOCIDE ON GOONERS.
P.S. This is a joke.
