Some Things (Because Im Mad lol)
7 years ago
Because I cannot log into this website, or twitter, or look at almost any gay erotica these days without immediately being irritated.
Men with "small" dicks are just as valid and attractive as men with big dicks. (I dont actually like big dicks in the first place all that much/theyre overrated/most men are statistically under 6 inches)
Chubby men, or average build men can be and often are just as attractive as muscled men. Abs are overrated, and the obsession with perfect bodies/oversized unrealistic musculature screams "I still havent gotten over toxic masculinity yet"
Hyper porn is not "Bara"
You are not "edgy" or "chill" because you're ok with people using slurs ("fag," *insert trans slur*, the N word, etc) or calling you them personally. Youre probably just ignorant, badly adjusted, or enjoy being inflammatory. Or all three!
Feminine behavior, appearance, etc is not weak, inherently submissive, or emasculating. Yall just again still havent gotten over internalized shit, and toxic masculinity. Feminine men are valid and just as potentially attractive as "traditionally masculine" ones.
People are not objects. Friends are not toys.
If you are a woman who does M/M gay erotica whether written or drawn that feeds on fetishy crap, toxic heterosexual roles, or gross concepts of dominance you literally have zero business being mad if people pirate your work. You literally profit off of bad "novelty" gay porn that perpetrates all the bad stereotypes that already exist.
"Its just porn" is a fuckall bad excuse for being irresponsible in how you express artistically. Being morally lazy and self centered is poison, and half the problem with society.
Nazis are bad. Racists are bad. Economic systems that exploit and keep wealth in a fraction of the population are wrong. There are not "two sides." This is not a difficult moral position/conundrum.
There are more kinds of men/kinds of manhood in the world than traditionally masculine monster boys, bara dudes, and beef furries. Expand your fucking horizons. Yall arent groundbreaking.

tl;dr: You raise real, meaningful problems, ones I don't know how to address. But advocating(/at least condoning) piracy of women's art? Cool motive, still theft. Fire-and-brimstone preaching isn't any better when it's using gender studies vocabulary instead of seminary school vocabulary.
I said (or meant to denote) that people who are ONLY into perfect bodies (and more specifically hyper porn) have issues with toxic masculinity. Not, "people into muscled men." Almost everyone likes fit people. Its attractive. The point is that its not the ONLY kind of attractive, and when the only kind of content that one creates or pursues is just traditionally masculine men with nice bodies, theres a problem. As a side note, hyper porn is a blatant example of insecurity lol; like its obvious. It takes the two most obsessed over parts of men, that in our shit society denote "manhood" and supersizes them: Penis, and muscles. Gay men are obsessed with their bodies even more than straight ones are, and a LOT of this comes from impossible expectations/desires that they learned from erotica. (Im also just always going to question why people are attracted to balloon men.)
Fire and Brimstone preaching contextualizes with mistranslated and butchered scripture that never actually supports said preaching in the first place. It comes from a place of hate. Me? Im literally just laying out what six years of study and personal experience have taught me, albeit in a very irritated tone. You'd be irritated as well if you were trained to recognize the root causes of half of societies problems. Because you start to see them everywhere, and there's little you can do about it.
