Some women will swear upon their lives that bdsm is empowering. However, off the top of my head, here are some terms used for submissive women in kink and porn: the b-slur, the w-slur, sex doll, fleshlight, s-slur etc.
Tell me now, how is fetishising and deriving pleasure from such rampant misogyny acceptable?
I've noticed how porn has trickled subtly but so well into our day to day life. Of course we're aware of the obvious negative attitudes and behaviours underpinned by porn, but the minor undercurrents aren't all that addressed, mainly how lingo adapted from porn has become somewhat commonplace.
For instance, the very word "porn" is now used to indicate/imply something pleasurable, esp. in the sense "pleasing to the eye" - affixed even in non sexual contexts (for eg "food porn"). It's very off putting, actually; such an uncomfortable experience to watch something this damaging be normalised, accepted and covertly romanticised.
A lot of the times, dommes simply serve fantasies of men; it's still male centric. On the rare occasions it isn't male-centric, the fact doesn't change that they're still upholding a subculture built heavily on misogyny and romanticisation of violence against women.
I absolutely loathe how women are taught to expect and romanticise violence and humiliation in bed by kink and porn. There's so much nonsense about "women with personality like kink", kink being portrayed as this fun and quirky practice; heck, even romantic fiction these days is abrim with dark fantasy (which is often just rose-tinted kidnapping etc).
It really is repackaged patriarchy of women being taught about how they need to be submissive to a man with veneers of empowerment and choice/liberal feminist ideas (read: how they talk about sexuality being inherently liberating because ✨chOiCe✨).
I do agree that porn of non-con/rape is very very bad and harmful however, as an SA victim something like a non-con scene with a consenting partner feels very heeling for me. I’ve seen a lot of posts on this subreddit about a non-con fantasy and while I can say that sometimes it’s just a shitty person who wants to glorify rape but sometimes it’s someone like me who finds scenes like this comforting. For me it’s about knowing that the situ is controlled. when I was SAd it was very traumatic and turned me off of ”bedroom activities” for a long time until I did a scene with my partner. Knowing that I could tell them to stop and they would made me feel better about those activities and has helped me move past my trauma. again; porn of this is just trying to glorify rape and I don’t agree with it.
I really hate how in the internet, it's normalized to see NSFW Art. It's so hard to avoid it in social media pages like Instagram, Tumblr, Deviantart, etc because it will just show up in your recommendations with no warning whatsoever. There are options for these art sites to blur and filter out NSFW art but of course, some artwork do manage to pass through, especially if the adult art is more softcore.
What I hate about NSFW art is that it's mostly women who are drawn in a innuendo manner. One of the most common factors in this type of art is how boobs, butts, belly, and feet are exaggerated as hell. And their oc or fictional character is posing sexually.
I have big problems with NSFW Art because it's disgusting as hell. A women is drawn in such a disgusting manner that makes me want to physically retch but thats not the only problem. I feel like that type of art is so sexist because the artists, followers, and likers of this type of art see us women as their own tool. We're only important to them if we have big boobs, big feet, big butts, etc and it's reinforcing the standards that men want from women.
I also hate how normalized it is to see this type of art. I see plently of people joking about Rule-34 and how cursed it is but that's it. No one points out how sexist it is, and I'm feeling tired of it. Instead you'd get backlash and even worse. I wish more people acknowledged how harmful it is and I'm tired of pretending it's not.
it disgusts me beyond belief :/
Many of you might have heard of this same argument that these Rape hentai defenders have been spouting. Its pure nonsense and I am tired of it.
rape hentai content promotes misogyny. It's incel and misogynistic to the core.
Whenever you call these degenerates out, they always pull the same pathetic false equivalence:
"Violence in films and video games doesn't turn people into murderers, so rape hentai is fine too!"
This is bullshit, and I'm done letting them get away with it.
Violence in films and games actually has purpose:
It comes with narrative context, heroes fighting villains, stories of justice, redemption, or consequences. Video games add competition, skill, and strategy. The violence serves the plot instead of being the entire point.
Rape hentai content? It's usually nothing but the repeated glorification, fetishization, and sexualization of rape, coercion, and the destruction of women. No real story. No consequences. Just endless degradation for cheap kicks.
Let's expose their lie with a direct parallel:
Picture this: An innocent, kind, diligent girl, a good student who's always nice to everyone(how the content actually used to depicts it).
One day, two scumbags kidnap her and drag her to a mansion. They torture her, beat her brutally with metal tools, and mentally break her down until she's completely obedient. In the end, she's so traumatized that she submits and is forced to work as a maid in a hotel.
If this was a single show, many would call it a dark tragedy or commentary on real-world horrors women face.
But if studios started mass-producing this exact same story again and again, different settings, different innocent girls getting destroyed, people would lose their minds:
"Why the fuck are they industrializing content about torturing and enslaving women? Who keeps paying for this garbage? This is blatantly misogynistic."
Now swap the beatings and torture for sexual rape scenes, the exact formula these rape hentai thrives on.
A single story like that would already get destroyed for fetishizing rape. Mass-producing it? Unforgivable.
This is the false equivalence. When you remove the sexual fetish, their "it's just like violence" argument collapses instantly. One has context and storytelling. The other is pure, repetitive trauma porn.
Rape hentai defenders are desperately coping and seething because deep down they know their fetish is disgusting, predatory, and rooted in hatred of women. They're not edgy or based they're pathetic degenerates hiding behind lame whataboutism because they can't defend their sick fantasy without looking like the incel trash they are.
i was active on the porn free and porn addiction subreddits and was always respectful and nice to everyone. when all of a sudden i got a permanent ban from both (i guess theyre modded by the same people). i only made a couple comments but most of them were replying to people asking for help with their porn problems or asking if theyre a porn addict and me basically being like “any level of porn is damaging and can lead to addiction”. i also said i got rid of my porn addiction by learning about the sick reality of the porn industry. i didnt even get any warnings. crazy! being antiporn is looked down on even in spaces where people claim to be pornfree. its like banning someone from AA for saying any amount of alcoholism is bad. i was NEVER disrespectful or angry in any form so that wasnt it.
On tiktok recently ive been seeing more and more comments with the poll box underneath which says “voted yumleaks 🍑 on X” even when there was no poll on the post. All of these accounts are bot accounts part of a CSAM ring ,most of them have screenshots from a CSAM video of alittle girl being abused reposted and links in their bios.its truly disgusting please report all of them .The world is truly fucked
Hi, I’m (23F) not sure if this is even allowed in this subreddit,
but I want to know if anybody else feels that the normalisation of porn and sexual exploitation of women has completely put anybody else off having kids?
Porn is a large part (in my opinion) of what makes this society a dystopia (particularly for women) why would I want to subject any children (particularly girls) to this misogynistic dystopia that I already feel miserable living in??
This isn’t the only thing that makes me anti natalist, but it has certainly been a huge influence in developing this ideology throughout my early twenties.
Just posting this to open up a conversation about this and see how other people feel?
I saw a person drawing hand anatomy on a tiktok live, and of course one of the drawings had two hands SPREADING a vague vulva-looking shape, with two other hands cupped at the bottom. (So it looked like two hands cupping/spreading butt cheeks). This irked me so bad.
It's such a common, gross move in porn. Spreading the vulva so far that the vaginal canal is pulled open. I've had this done to me once or twice during sex (albeit not as far, thank God) by my partner and I immediately lashed out. Don't do that shit, it hurts and stings, it's not meant to be spread so fucking far? It's not even "sexy" imo, it's kinda offputting because why are you looking at / into my canal???
It's not only that. They romanticize so many different, violent moves and it just leads to pain and feeling violated. Accidentally "slipping" from vaginal to anal, "accidentally" cumming where you don't want them to cum (inside, on face, in hair), choking, holding her nose closed, fish hooking any open orifice. It's so dehumanizing and disgusting, especially because it's usually done with no consent or even forewarning. And I feel like there is little in equivalence for a woman to do to a man - even if there was, I reckon NOT very many women would do that?! Sure you could, idk, flick their sack, but I don't have any desire to do that lmao? Why do they desire to be violent and rough to us? (Rhetorical question - just annoyed rn).
