    (suddenly everything with a womens body requires anti horny memes which if you are the only one sexaulizing nin sexual things youre the problem)

    Yeah, I've seen that too. I still prefer people being like "haha yeah I sure would be saying something gross right now if not for the standards of this community haha" to them saying something more explicit and thus normalizing that sort of thing, but it's still gross. It should never be a tongue-in-cheek self report because then it's just a euphemism, it should be a response to gross comments although now the site culture and moderation level is just that those get slapped with comment removals and/or bans instead so it may have less of a purpose now than when it was just "peer pressure redditors into not being creepy because the mods aren't doing shit."

    And sorry, I do always feel compelled to chime in about the history of weird site culture things to try to keep the institutional knowledge alive and preempt the telephone game of new users who just heard about it somewhere trying to fill it in. I can see how that would feel patronizing and I apologize for that.
