maybe it is cultural! Or more likely I just don't keep up what's popular with heterosexual women. Lol.. A lot of girls I know do post pics of random shirtless celebrities on fb and I'm like "yawn" and scroll on so maybe I just don't pay attention!

I missed the part about it being paid! That seems unlikely to work when people can just get it out of movies if they want. So many things are free now that anything paid is tough to start when it comes to really anything internet related. Although I imagine copyright costs them a decent amount. Also, the other…

true. I could see way more bi/gay men being into this than women. Which I don't know why that is, but it seems to be anecdotally more common for men into men than women into men to want something like this. Which is weird, because I do enjoy gay female porn (unfortunately hard to find non male oriented, sex positive…

Is that really a thing for millenials to want to stay around their parents and be close friends with them? I'm a millenial and I got out the second I could and broke about every expectation imaginable. And I tell my parents very little about my life. I love them, but that's just not the relationship we have. It sounds…

Every time I see something like this, it confirms I'm just not into men. Which is nice, because I start to doubt it just because of social conditioning and all that. But even though I have no interest, I am glad this is a thing. These are all obviously consensual since they were in movies and maybe things like this…

I was closeted for a long time and never took it out on others. That could be a factor but it means there's something else very wrong with him if he hurts others because of his own issues.

I've wondered this about my abusive ex who I'm pretty sure is a sociopath. It would make sense that if someone was both closeted and had no empathy that they would take out their discomfort with themselves on their partner and have no second thoughts about it. I mean some things make me think he's not gay, mostly…

I somehow never put it together that kids would see their parents have sex because there was one room... I'm trying to tell myself they waited until the kids were outside, but I doubt it and am now very disturbed.

Well considering how prevalent rape is at college, you'd think you'd want your kids to be aware of it before they get there. I just don't get the whole "never let my kids know anything bad exists". They will find plenty of bad things in the world no matter what you do, and it's your job as a parent to teach them about…

I can understand that, but I think it'd be hard to tell them "no you can't start an acting career until you're an adult", when child acting done right can jump start a career. And it would also be a little hard to enforce without being hypocritical when the parent benefited from child acting in their current career.…

oh god, I was very close with two different severe pathological liars at different points, both for several years. (One was an abusive ex and the other an abusive best friend) The sad thing was I was so isolated that I believed a lot of it for a while. I never knew someone was capable of being that manipulative or…

what if it's sentient but programmed to always want sex? Is that consent? So many questions...

He's braver than me. I still get anxiety coming out to classmates in an academic science program in a liberal city who couldn't give a fuck. I still haven't told any of my conservative friends/family back where I grew up. So I couldn't imagine doing it in the nfl and before the draft. I wonder if he had a reason for…

As much as people don't like her, it's obviously working. It's not much different than Kesha but a little more offensive and less thought out. But she's never in the tabloids getting in trouble (just like Kesha aside from the eating disorder thing which shouldn't have been in the tabloids anyway). Celebrities have…

This is bs for all the reasons other commenters have mentioned. Do we really want to train kids to silently and thoughtlessly obey everything authority tells them to? He was being respectful and he should be commended for thinking for himself and taking a stand for what he believed.

I'm guessing she's pretty wealthy if she has a housekeeper and a safe. And other commenters are saying she's been pretty outspoken on the news, so that just makes her a target for theft if it's obvious she's well off. Increased visibility will do that, unfortunately. Especially since she's the foreigner and it might…

right. I absolutely detest it and think it's definitely a ploy for the men's enjoyment. But the women are willing participants and I can't buy that they are in any way coerced. Which makes them at fault as well imo. There's just no power differential here to make me think they in any way didn't have a full choice. To…

Yeah I definitely don't think it's a great thing to do. But like you say, he is way more in the wrong. I see it more as a judgement error on her part while a complete betrayal on his part.

It really makes zero sense to me that Monica lewinsky was blamed. Even if you ignore the immense power differential, she wasn't the one that was married! She's not the one that took wedding vows! Whoever is breaking a marriage agreement is the one to be blamed in any consensual affair IMO. She had no responsibility to…

I was bullied as a 5 year old by other 6 year olds. At least for me, this would not have helped. I would've felt responsible and like I got them in legal trouble. Plus how do you even define bullying at that age? As an adult I can look back and say that it was bullying. But at the time I couldn't, and the adults…
