Regarding studies, a quick search will bring up a plethora
so provide one if it's so easy to find, don't just say "do your own research" and post threads of guilty straight men saying "I would NEVER do to a woman the shit i’m into" while posting NoFap self-help books.
the reason why anti-porn usually falls into right-wing pipeline is because it's inherently a right-wing ideology entrenched in religious guilt. Nobody is getting meaningfully hurt or exploited when someone posts erotic fiction of having gay sex with an argonian on AO3, that's like saying films are inherently exploitative and we should not watch them when home movies exist, that's like saying eating is inherently exploitative and harmful when a vegan diet exists
you're projecting your mainstream and straight-centric experience onto the entirety of porn, which isn't inherently any more exploitative or addictive than video games or consuming any other form of media, which is why you haven't provided any studies showing otherwise
You assume things which you don’t know about me, for one.
I definitely didn't assume a dude telling me that I'm exploiting women when I jack it to gay furry porn lmao
All addictions work on the same principle, hijacking the pleasure system of our brains.
cool, if all addictions work on the same principle and you can't provide a single study about how porn is uniquely bad in this regard, use this energy to complain about the zoomers playing video games instead of wasting your time acting like a religious crank in a queer space
i wish lemmygrad had a pronoun system so I could tell if they're dudes, but you're right, the poster that said "I quit consuming porn once I realized that I was doing it as a form of escapism. I really do not recommend ever consuming it as it produces a crooked conception of women, making you see them as mere objects of gratification instead of actual human beings." might not be a straight dude, "I would NEVER do to a woman the shit i’m into, niche porn sites are the only places where i can find that kind of stuff while also being able to lie to myself by saying “this is ok because i am not actually doing it”." might not be a straight dude either
