Or less common opinions that you’ve been waiting for a chance to share?

Apologies if this has been asked before; I didn’t see it among recent posts and I like to hear everyone’s hot takes.

    Porn is a terrible way to learn about kink

    Fisting is a great example of misrepresentation, anal is another obvious one

    You can’t just jump straight into things

      Agree! Porn was never meant to be a substitute for sexual education and there is rarely emphasis on foreplay or aftercare.

        The problem is, at least in America, there is no discussion about sex.

        Most parents are too prudish to sit down with their children and have a healthy discussion about sex with their child, no matter how old the child is. You could be 65 years old and your parents would still not want to talk about sex with you.

        Pretty much all of the kids you grow up with know diddly squat about sex themselves, and unless you happen to have one kid in your group whose parents aren’t prudes and talk to them about sex, then pretty much the only way you can learn about sex is by watching it happen in porn.

        Kind of seems like that’s an opportunity for a side business. You could be a for hire sex education person. Alternatively, maybe you could teach a community class or create like an online sex education series.
