It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

I keep hearing about dudes just casually watching porn in non-masturbatory contexts the way I scroll through funny animal videos on Youtube and I just don't get it

I know a guy who literally doesn't masturbate because it "ruins sex" but also is way into porn and watches it frequently. I don't get it either. I utilize porn as a tool but I can't imagine just watching it for watching's sake.

I knew someone very similar to that back in college. He claimed that the porn "motivated him" and not masturbating let him "channel his energy."

Ultimately he was just an aggressive misogynistic asshole who eventually found up-yours-woke-moralists

Lmao this guy is into Rogan, Peterson, and Shabibo (insists he doesnt agree with them about trans people tho! But only because we have a mutual trans friend).

you don't watch porn for the plot ? you might learn a thing or two about mise en scène

Only guy I know that does this is also friends with porn directors and does communal porn watch parties (and other sex party stuff). So probably not the average example.

But I can think of few things less arousing than watching porn in a group.

Edit: I tell a lie, I also had a colleague of mine show a titty model gif and saying 'look at this cool thing'. He is also 20 years my senior. Just kind of confused by that more than anything, how the fuck are you supposed to react?

Imagining a bunch of hipster auteur types sipping wine and rubbing their chins, furiously writing in their little notebooks, while some Brazzers is playing in front of them all like: "ah yes the artistic choice of spreading the cumshot all across her back with a vibrator is a real insight into the perils of digital nomadism in the age of late capitalism"

"Impressive, very nice, now lets see Paul Allen's titty model gif" bateman-ontological

I knew a guy who would just watch porn in the breakroom at our warehouse job. An otherwise nice enough guy but it was very weird

Run long enough on the hedonic treadmill and that can be like background noise. Bad place to be, especially if someone wants to actually be interested and intimate with an actual romantic partner later.
