HOLY SHIT THIS IS SO TRUE!. I have been socially punished for making jokes about lusting after men or anyone queer (in front of adults) and labeled a porn addict /srs, because it's only gross when i do it :)

frothingmaw.bsky.social•1 day ago

it also grinds my gears when people use "addiction" to mean "having fun" like no need to be protestant about everything. we don't exist to suffer

evrehla.bsky.social•1 day ago

It's ridiculous to randomly accuse you of that, but porn addiction is a thing. It's specifically within sex negative communities, one of those culturally isolated disorders. In America it's almost unique to Christian circles

ittybittydoggy.gay•1 day ago

oh it's really crazy they don't even usually need to read any words to decide this too!

pet is incapable of sexual feeling and also generally averse to sex yet people have accused it of many sexual things regardless bc it's sex positive and trans and gay

"You're addicted to attractive bodies and orgasms"

Whatever you say, John Kellogg

Even if I am somehow "addicted" to porn though, it's probably one of the least harmful things to be addicted to. Like seriously, it's just such a dumb argument.

Cool, cool.

i do believe negative relationships with porn can exist. i've dealt with way too many people that have mistreated me because they value porn more than me as a human. i've been replaced by porn in relationships. i wouldn't say that it's due to addiction though. rather just poor prioritization

bunnyhazedayz.bsky.social•1 day ago

fetishization is a problem that does exist but I'm not talking about that or mentioning anything like that but rather queer sex positivity

scarf.fish•1 day ago

yeah 100% but i wasn't talking about fetishization either. it's like a secret third thing where people just value porn much more than you to the point where they can only value you if you objectify yourself for them. like those teenage furry friend groups that force you to draw porn for them

scarf.fish•1 day ago

like idk while yeah i don't think porn addiction exists i think there are a lot of problems with it that kinda cause people to have genuine grievances with it. like porn was an active anger trigger for me for a while and i had to stay away from it. so idk. that's just me tho

oh yeah, i've been there

anyone who says that term or adjacent terms are the biggest walking red flags on this earth and you should avoid them at all cost.

Puriteens are the worst. Them creating the word "gooner" was a mistake

heroboof.bsky.social•1 day ago

puriteens did not create the term gooner! gooner was originally used to refer to a member of a niche "gooning" subculture that practices masturbation as a form of genital-focused meditation. genuinely, the OG gooners have a very healthy attitude towards masturbation and porn.

aranon.bsky.social•1 day ago

And here I thought it was another term for "thug".

scarf.fish•1 day ago

it sucks because i've seen corners of the current gooning community where their focus becomes to consistently get off to as many things as possible including illegal material and it genuinely just becomes a pedo ring

snuffthedog.bsky.social•1 day ago

Gooner used to be good :(

axemonger.bsky.social•1 day ago

I used to know someone who started getting into that idea. Like actually knew them, we shared social circles while that idea grew and grew in them

And now they're the most advanced terf I've ever seen. Not just repeating talking points. They went back to read Andrea Dworkin to back up the argument

axemonger.bsky.social•1 day ago

the "accuses people of porn addiction" -> "I dont hate queer people i just happen to hate every individual queer person I come across" pipeline is real

eagertoy.bsky.social•1 day ago

*very nodding*

eagertoy.bsky.social•1 day ago

natural basal desires aren't called "addiction" because that is never the root issue when there's overview studies about compulsion issues. the idea of "porn addiction" is def fascist nonsense

fangferaligatr.bsky.social•1 day ago

"You shouldn't watch porn! It's a harmful industry and mistreats women horribly!"

". . .Women?"

(In reality it's harmful to everyone cause exhaustion is no joke and the drugs they take are crazy bad for you. Most actors die young and excessive viewing can harm your ability to socialize)

1000draculas.bsky.social•1 day ago

i never understood the belief that erotic expression is an addiction of some kind since pretty much everyone can/does do it (no shame to those who do not!)

bittybuggy.bsky.social•1 day ago

literally!! it's always hateful people spewing rhetoric and never someone actually fucking informed.

porn addiction can be a real and serious problem that seriously impedes on people's relationships, sex lives, libido, mental health, and dopamine production, and those suffering deserve help (1/2)

bittybuggy.bsky.social•1 day ago

but anything dopaminergic can have an addiction formed to it, and making art is an inherently serotonergic activity, doing literally the opposite of what those dickheads are arguing there's literal science for it

anyways fuck those guys. watch whatever the fuck you want and celebrate queerness

yutzen.bsky.social•1 day ago

God it baffles me how people that are otherwise sane, even activists that work well with other causes, just fall for that particular psyop every time.

Why are the gringos like this.

kittycafe.bsky.social•18 hours ago

One guy said this to me on Twitter and someone else pointed out in the replies he followed multiple porn accounts and he literally deleted every tweet and reply he’s ever made

staraftrdark.bsky.social•1 day ago

Rahhhh I love majoring in goonology tf are you gonna do about it

staraftrdark.bsky.social•1 day ago

Like is there such thing as a porn addiction? Yes! Is it just drawing and/or engaging with porn? NO?!

fogbread.bsky.social•1 day ago

It being used to hound the LGBTA+ community is messed and it also hurts people struggling with real destructive porn addictions. These kind of accusations only hurt people it helps no one.

God I fucking love porn

fireghoul.bsky.social•1 day ago

Miserable people always have to try to make everyone else miserable whenever they see people having fun without guilt, and it sucks

cocoaberry.bsky.social•1 day ago

The old adage, "Misery loves company" still holds true today.

snuffthedog.bsky.social•1 day ago

Someone called me a porn addict because someone drew me a nice picture
