The effects of porn are genuinely terrible and so, so strong. It really impacts the way you see everything in the world, especially women. So sad...so dangerous.

You have to be far gone to even joke about that video sounding like porn.
“I’ve missed you!” “Meow meow!”
Men are gross.
The sad part is, this is the second time in the past week that I've come across this type of comment on a cat video.
Here's the other video for those curious.
This video is 100% cute, 0% sexual? Wtf?
Love your comment. I make a point of pointing out pornsickness every chance I get.
I'm not the commenter in the picture, but I was pleasantly surprised to find someone expressing porn-critical views in the wild :)
Men are so comfortable doing this, turning any G-rated conversation sexual.
It’s always annoyed the shit out of me when they make sexual jokes over something G-rated I’ve said. They sound like Beavis and Butthead to me, going “huh huh huh” at their own jokes.
they need to become uncomfortable with it again. I am so glad someone in the OPs picture shamed him from making such a gross comment. I will totally start doing this myself, especially in real life.
Yeah what and why even is that? I asked hubs and he was like, shrug, idk, men are idiots. I'm like yeah but WHY this particular thing? He said young guys think with their dicks. 1. I know that and 2. That's still not an answer to my question.
So I gave up and went to play with our cat. She's a senior kitty, so playing with her means chatting with her and skritching her face mostly.
It's not just young men though. I think men think about sex more than women, especially with how common porn is. And being overtly sexual in public is seen as more ok for guys than it is for women. I think sometimes men do this to make women uncomfortable, but other times they don't know/don't care. It never occurs to them that people watching cat videos don't want to hear about dude's porn habits.
Chatting and skritching is a wise use of time.
Lol oh yeah having worked in old folks homes I've seen that they ALWAYS think with their dick up til the day they die lol. That's why I got frustrated and walked away.
Cat admiration is always productive.
Men have built a culture where their sexual "needs" are waited on hand and foot every moment of every day. You can't even drive to work without seeing a booblady on a billboard. It's no wonder they think it's fine to act sexual 100% of the time
Yup.
It makes my skin crawl whenever a male poster makes unsolicited comments on a woman's appearance to fawn over how hot and adorable she is when the focus is 1) on her pet or 2) some other matter - and she hasn't even presented herself as a sexual object.
It's tangentially related, but on social media I've seen how a man will inexplicably praise someone or group on not having feminist content (even when in some cases the other party does... but the man is too dense and coomerbrained to pick up on it LMAO) 'Wow, I love you guys for not ruining your stuff with feminism!' When it wasn't mentioned or referenced in the first place it just makes the guy look creepy and obsessive, like they fixate on women and feminism as being the sole cause of evil and unbearable suffering in the world. A closet misogynist. But then they're the same kind of men who think a woman not wanting to date them is literal oppression of the worst order and that no-one else is more badly done to than them so I shouldn't be surprised.
Back in the day, I used to read through posts on the front page of Reddit and see how long it took for non-sexual things to take a hard left turn in pornbrained men's unsolicited opinions.
Da fuq
Kudos to oh and everyone who upvoted! (also, it's low-key annoying how downvotes don't do anything on youtube, I still press the button out of instinct when people say truly degenerate or hateful things but I'm guessing it doesn't even register?)
It doesn't do anything doesn't it? :( I always wondered..
It's weird that cats are both the only animal assumed default female and the only one sexualized.
