My family's thanksgiving is always incredibly casual. When we host, we cook, we eat, then we go for a hike. This year, we hosted my dad's insanely large family from out of state. One of my uncles is actually clinically retarded, but we all have to pretend that he isn't, for some reason. My mom hates him. This was also the first time my boyfriend of 3 years came to our thanksgiving. He's a hat guy, but all of his hats are simple, tasteful, and minimalist, so I've genuinely never given them a second thought. Day of thanksgiving, while I was in the kitchen finishing multiple dishes, my retarded uncle pulls me aside to tell me that it's disrespectful for my bf to be wearing a hat inside near the dinner table. I could maybe see this as a fair argument if we had the nice china out, but we were about to eat off paper plates. There were 17 of us and no one wanted to do more dishes. I don't know how to answer, so I mention I'll pass along the message, but I thought (and still do) that it's wild and that kind of expectation has no place where paper plates are being used. I mention it to my bf, but tell him to ignore the comment. I also mention it to my mom, and ask her to handle my uncle if he makes another comment about or to my bf. Things continue just fine and I never hear about it again. My bf and I cut our visit a day short because 17 people in the house is too many and I'm overwhelmed. All is well. I called my mom today to apologize for leaving early and ask how the rest of my extended family's visit went. She apparently, is still incredibly pissed off about what my uncle said and tells me that she had a very serious conversation with him. She now has more reasons to hate my uncle and it's been causing arguments between her and my dad since. This was all over a hat. My boyfriend doesn't want to spend thanksgiving with us ever again.

I've known some moids to act completely oblivious about the subject, in an "all women are volcels or whores" kind of way. It's not just that they act ignorant of the concept of unwanted attention/harassment, the orgasm gap and the inherent higher risk for women to engage in sex despite viewing relationships through a primarily sexual lens, they may not even believe that some women can have serious trouble finding a partner at all.
Also, it's one thing to encouragingly tell a woman "hey, don't be so hard on yourself, you can find a bf eventually, don't give up" and another to go "wtf just get a bf it's so easy for women".
It's hard to tell what tone was used here exactly, but I found it kinda suspicious.

>>314914
Not saying that there aren't some women who live on the edge or think that getting a bf is super easy because they don't have any trouble with it, but I usually see moids imagining this and seething about how unfair it is that they don't receive the same kind of attention. Some will even present sexual harassment as desirable because they despair over how ignored they are and cannot emphasise with how threatening unwanted attention can be.
Given the opportunity, many men generally will fuck around more casually than most women do, just look at Grindr…

Replace all the hands with dicks and it would be more accurate

dick in one hand, some sort of unrealistic fantasy he imprinted on when he was a teenager that he wants to make you act out in the other hand

Porn is never going to be banned. There may come a time where access is restricted so it’s not a free-for-all for anyone that is online, but it’s never going away. My hope is that as people become more aware of how terrible porn is for society and individuals, it will become stigmatized and seem as a disgusting habit like smoking cigarettes.

The government does not care about porn or women on any level. This is just an easy way ot ramp up surveillance and information control without people complaining.

>>314949
The government already tackles child porn seemingly well, i think trickling down porn bans without invading privacy is doable, especially more explicit hardcore pornography since that's very distinguishable

>>314937
This, so much this

Porn can be regulated, but if it gets banned outright in your country, you probably have more issues on your hands (a.k.a. living in an authoritarian hole) than porn.
That's just how it is. It's the same with weed, the same with alcohol, the same with every common vice. By making those illegal, the government panders to projections and hurt feelings of neurotic losers and creates new groups to oppress and destroy lives of. All while the thing its fighting will still be a thing, except now it will also fund organized crime.
And projecting neurotic losers will still proceed to be projecting neurotic losers.

my entire life and everything about me changed because i was raped. i think it depends how it happens.

>>314841
ofc
rape basically communicates to your psyche you're fundamentally unsafe in this world

Wow.

Americans say the Soviet Union was a huge success.

>>314845
i wish i knew how to feel safe again

Maybe living in a free country leads people to be trusting and friendly and living in a police state causes people to be suspicious and rude.

Americans used to be surprised Russians from the Soviet Union were unfriendly.

Now that the USA is also a police state, you might understand why.

I'm also an NSFW artist who's bad at drawing.
I wish I knew how to post and sell my art without losing my anonymity. I don't mind commissions irl, but what lands on the internet often stays on the internet.
How are you not paranoid about posting your NSFW drawings?

how do you find people who are interested and commission you, even if it was for free despite being "bad"?

>>314921
>but what lands on the internet often stays on the internet.
How are you not paranoid about posting your NSFW drawings?
Because the Internet is for everyone and for the NSFW drawings, I'm not ashamed of drawing shit I wanted
>>314922
I'll find others who's fascinated and wouldn't mind of how bad it looks, they can art-trade with me if they wanted to

your art isn't that bad, I like it tbh
it's just that the subject matter reeks of autism, for better or worse

>>314939
>For better or worse
I'll take it as a both

The sex traffickers that own onlyfans and all the porn platforms and strip clubs are all male. And they get filthy rich from the exploitation of women's bodies that will scar them for life.
And on the other hand, you have the 12yo incel shitting on sex workers online.

Pick your fight.

>>314783
i meant it as in i'll never think less of a woman for doing sex work but i still think the industry is a horrible thing and i hate how males think they can criticize women for doing sex work when they are the ones who built that industry and consume the content
u are definitely right though bc clearly one has more power than the other lol

Prostitutes and people who use their services are degenerates.
Degenerate enablers are also morally bankrupt degenerates.
Degeneracy results in dysfunctional families, broken lives and increased degeneracy.

The "empowering" nonsense is obviously just marketing.
The real satanic lie that often gets pushed with OF is that it "removes pimps from the equation" and that pimps hate it.
Both completely false. There are now a few podcast clips of women using OF shilling the "necessity" of management. The manager is always a moid. Pimps have not left the world of sex work at all and it absolutely still needs to be banned.

Americans in 1990 used to say that they did not need to speak out against tyranny because there was still some freedom.

Now Americans won't speak out against tyranny because resisting the police state is too dangerous.
