Cool back to whacking it lads clears throat
LOOKS LIKE MEAT’S BACK ON THE MENU BOYS
uruk hai cheering and bumping chests, hobbits throwing mead and cheese wheels into the air, Legolas in tears of joy, Aragorn falls to his knees in sheer relief etc
Oh no, how will we raise moral panic now? /s
So because normal urges are repressed, people feel guilty, angry and start doing more if it.
Reminds me of how some of the most rabid anti-gay activists are caught pants down with another boy.
It’s always religious zealots
It’s like the “no fap” fad a few years ago. You could see the same christian arguments against sex, it was pathetic.
That was when I started getting nervous about fascism because all that no-fap stuff is heavily tied to that shit
That’s really interesting. I remember being really weirded out by those guys and the “wholesome” group and never really understanding why. Just a feeling of disgust and unease
Any group of guys talking about degeneracy better have Warhammer 40k paraphernalia around them or I’m invoking the ghost of John Brown
I’m not sure the 40k paraphernalia makes it safer. Lots of 40k fans don’t seem to realize humans aren’t the good guys.
These researchers have not heard about gooners.
have conducted a meta-analysis of research on pornography and concluded that porn use does not predict problems with porn, but that religiosity does.
I think there’s some important nuance here that isn’t conveyed in the headline. Like I once knew someone who would compulsively browse porn even in inappropriate/risky situations like while they were at work; they did clearly have some kind of problem. But the nature of the problem seemed to be more along the lines of a sometimes-unhealthy coping mechanism for their preexisting mental health struggles than a situation where they started looking at porn and that decision was the cause of the problem, and would have caused the same problem for someone else.
what about sex addiction? that’s more real imo
They’re both rolled up into predisposition to addictive behavior. If it’s fun and feels good, you’ll do too much of it.
Or medication, some cause addictive qualities.
Yeah, chemical dependence actually ends in a couple weeks for most (all?) drugs. It’s just that whoever’s life might suck too much to bear sober.
