Didnt they do a study a couple years back on pornography but they had to cancel it because they couldn't find a control group (of men who didn't watch pornography) ?

I think all men watch porn and some men are very good at lying about not watching porn.

Yup. I think the one exception would be the nofap groups, but they're weird in their own way. And virtually all of them are still misogynists. I ran across another weird subgroup about semen retention that's less so, but still...everything is always about their penises.

Ugh. I'm seeing a lot of "I don't want to police his time" and "don't ask, don't tell" and "I'm content to play stupid" in the comments.

The truth will set you free!!!!

Edit: it is sad seeing how many of these people have acquiesced but it is invigorating how many haven't

Yeah I was the “cool girl” in my teens/twenties. “Didnt care” and encouraged it. I’m in my 30s and it’s a no-go. Same with men who openly like scantily clad images of other women, blatantly stare at other women in public, it’s disrespectful to me and our relationship. Its natural to find other people attractive but rude to do it so openly. Porn is often violent and degrading to women and men that are hyper fixed on it make for shitty sexual partners. Have yet to be with one who was super into porn that didn’t just jackhammer the shit out of me and not worry about my discomfort.

It seems like this sort of trajectory is very common.

It was mine. I started out thinking I was a super kewl girl who didn't care and now it's vile to me.

Women's Liberation

Feminism is the movement to liberate women from patriarchy.

We stand up for the rights of women as a sex-class. Women have a right to bodily autonomy and to set their own boundaries and have them respected. We resist efforts to limit women's reproductive autonomy. We condemn the men who exploit and abuse women in prostitution and pornography. We oppose all harms and forms of exploitation of women and girls, regardless of whether or not they're sold as "choice" or re-framed as "empowering." We oppose the movement to redefine "women" in a way that erases the realities of our lives and makes organizing for our liberation as a sex-class impossible.

"In the radical feminist view, the new feminism is not just the revival of a serious political movement for social equality. It is the second wave of the most important revolution in history. Its aim: the overthrow of the oldest, most rigid class/caste system in existence, the class system based on sex – a system consolidated over thousands of years, lending the archetypal male and female roles an undeserved legitimacy and seeming permanence." –Shulamith Firestone, The Dialectic of Sex
