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.

The first point talked about that porn has become more violent towards women and its influencing teenagers. I must admit that teenage boys do in fact, talk much more "sexually violent" about their female classmates. If you have 14-ish boys talk about how they would

spoilermouth r*pe their female classmates until they are puking
in public, then its not just fundamentalist propaganda. I am Gen Z mind you, and when I was that age, something like that was unheard of. And the most raunchy things I heard was about "doggy style sex".

Holy shit. Yeah that's awful, but you said that was only the first point? Going off the reply, they must've said something reductionist?
