1,549 words Imagine a world where people live so devoid of happiness that it becomes a popular pastime to compensate by simply watching recordings of people smiling. The need is so severe that when making these recordings, no one even bothers to build in a plot—they just get right to the action...
most the arguments (although amplified due to the bodily autonomy element of it) are basically just arguments against shitty corporations and bosses. In a normal job, your boss can be a dick and force you to do things you dont wanna do if you wanna keep your job, same thing applies in porn, just those things seem more severe due to the nature of the profession.
yeah, and being stuck in contracts that mean other people profit massively off of your labor while you see very little or nothing (but the exposure!)
There was a post about POrnhub being shut down. Boo hoo. I was just throwing out the idea that some people(self included) think the watching of porn is more than a little fucked up and mentally lazy. "Imagine a world where people live so devoid of happiness that it becomes a popular pastime to compensate by simply watching recordings of people smiling. " - opening sentence of the article.
yeah but that feels very reduction ad absurdum. you could argue against television or movies (because you should be out there living adventures instead of watching other people do it) or listening to music (wow imagine being so plebeian that you can't just conjure up pleasing sounds in your own ear or play every instrument you want to hear yourself) or reading a book etc
Being an aeronaut/balloonist may not be a practical attainment. Getting laid generally just requires some reasonable cooperation and consideration. And yes, studies show people are doing increasingly fewer hobbies, adventures or self-improvement activities with each passing year. Reduction ad absurdum - nah, just just how I and some others see it. You do you - that was not a porn reference.
I would say there's probably a lot of reasons people are doing less with their free time thay relate more to the lack of free time and/or money than just that they're satisfied watching it on the screen (though I recognize that plays a part).Being an aeronaut/balloonist may not be a practical attainment.

I get all of that. I disagree it takes masturbation off the table. My only real thought was that porn is highly over-indulged in and is often a lazy way out of actual commitment, particularly when it comes to healthy people who are in a relationship. Lot of wasted time and money. i think a lot of guys would rather watch porn than have to co-operate with a woman. And ditto for many women So silly - better to keep face and watch someone else have some real grind going on? I think a lot of it goes back to misogynistic desires(both sexes) to have it all. While really not having it all because nobody wants to be bottom bitch forever. And at this point, they don't have to be. And thus better cooperation and terms of engagement are needed
Doesn't everybody use Reddit for their porn now?Save your favorite vids, they're gonna take em down.

If you want to feel like shit for a while, read up on the whole 'girls do porn' / pornwikileaks saga.
No thanks, I get to deal with human exploitation most days. I'm gonna stick to googling for comedy to lighten the load.
