haute take but porn isn’t a human right and shouldn’t be free by default

[blackwoolncrown]

How dare you suggest interpersonal sexuality should always be a form of mutual exchange either in the form of compensation or real, actual intimacy you worked for????

[forever-trebag]

You do understand there is a difference between a mutual experience and random pornographic imagery.

[blackwoolncrown]

You do realize there’s a lot to unpack in you seeing it as ‘random pornographic imagery’ when each instance of porn includes one or more real, actual people who created that content under consent of certain circumstances, usually one of exclusivity and limited redistribution, a context that is violated when their content gets virulently spread for free? The fact that it’s all an out of context random jumble to you is kind of our exact point.

straight men trying to make Serious war dramas and accidentally making incredibly tender homoerotic cinema is the funniest thing

[beachdeath]

In his essay, “Masculinity as Spectacle,” Steve Neale seeks to extend Laura Mulvey’s work on the male gaze and to challenge her assertion that the male or male-identified spectator can never look upon the male body as an erotic object. To challenge Mulvey’s assertion, Neale identifies the mechanisms mainstream Hollywood cinema uses to represent the male body as erotic. One way of doing this, Neale argues, is by making the male body the target of violence. In the war film, a soldier can hold his buddy – as long as his buddy is dying on the battlefield. In the western, Butch Cassidy can wash the Sundance Kid’s naked flesh – as long as it is wounded. In the boxing film, a trainer can rub the well-developed torso and sinewy back of his protege – as long as it is bruised. In the crime film, a mob lieutenant can embrace his boss like a lover – as long as he is riddled with bullets. Violence makes the homoeroticism of many “male” genres invisible; it is a structural mechanism of plausible deniability.

What are your thoughts on Tumblr changing their community guidelines and no longer allowing adult content, including explicit sexual content and nudity, effective December 17, 2018?

Bad.
