[CW: Transphobic slur] Guy discovers he's pansexual, blames porn for giving him a "fetish"
(hexbear.net)
The paper that this is from is the product of a group headed by a self-described "pro-life feminist" and that has retweeted TERFs.
It always sucks when groups with legitimate criticisms of pornography (or anything) dip into bigoted, reactionary bullshit because it poisons whatever valid points they may have made.
i used to think pornography was causing my kinks to spin out of control, back when the sex i had was non reciprocal oral sex and the rare (bad) hookup pre-transition
once I started having sex, and hoo boy - the first real sex i had was a three way - I learned that "i can crank one off to this" and "I am into this as a lived experience" are very different.
Reading this kind of thing just makes me think of the presumption that my pornographic interests were a near 1:1 map of my actual kinks
I think this guy is a bit silly lol. he looked at porn and basically made himself comfortable with his own urges and then freaked out and blamed the porn instead of his repression
somehow like 90% of my partners both hook ups and relationships (mono or poly) were into similar kinks to me i was either seeing it out or get insanely lucky
but i get that feeling that's how i felt pre human contact but it was earlier internet era so at first I thought I was mentally damaged or something
