Title says it all. I may have a mild obsession with Souji.

i hope every pro-porn libfem sees this. the biggest porn star in the world openly talks about how how her contract was exploitative, and the same men who get off to her victim-blame her. porn is NEVER empowering for women.

no offense but the thing with jkr is 100% misogyny and i can’t see how any1 thinks otherwise

like ok, u think she’s wrong and she’s a horrible human being (even though she’s not). u can’t see that the amount of backlash she’s getting is insane??? where is that energy with ANY male celebs that r problematic. why are we burning this woman’s books but we’re still watching pirates of the caribbean and the flash. why r we not able to separate this specific art from this specific artist.

idk, it’s so weird

And that's without mentioning that what she's been cancelled over is so mild. Have you even read the tweets or the essay? Here's a few screenshots for the record:

Where's the hate from JKR? What does she say that would be even remotely deserving of the death (and RAPE) threats she got? What in these tweets deserve to doxx her address? Why is it that people's reaction was to send her porn that children could see?

"Sex can happen without pleasure or attraction." It can but it shouldn't! You can also eat dog shit for dinner but you shouldn't. It's no way to live!

When I was 15 and looking for answers as to why I didn't feel sexually attracted to my first boyfriend, and the first link that came up was to AVEN. And so I internalized the belief that "Asexuals can and do have sex with their partners, even if they don't get pleasure from it! It's just something nice to do for your partner, like giving them a backrub!"

And that triggered a long history of agreeing to sex I didn't want to have with men to be polite, and considering myself as asexual rather than exploring the possibility that I was lesbian. It was in some part because of this sentiment that I ended up in a relationship with a violent bipolar man believing that sexual coercion and feeling both repulsed and unsafe by sex was absolutely normal.

The claim "sex can happen without pleasure or attraction" alongside the connotation of "and that's okay, let's normalize it" - regardless of the group or individual saying this message - does an insidious type of harm to young girls and gay people.

People will change and choose their beliefs to help describe their feelings and make sense of their internal worlds. So hearing this opinion being framed as something normal and natural really can do harm to groups of people more prone to experiencing sexual exploitation. This idea can really traumatize and retraumatize people.

It's literally exactly what women have been taught by society for decades; that sex doesn't have to be enjoyable for women but it's polite for women to have sex with their [male] partners regardless.

And who exactly is this "new" rhetoric targeting? Women.

​An Open Letter in Support of Amber Heard

Five months ago, the verdict in the defamation trial between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard deeply concerned many professionals in the fields of intimate partner and sexual violence.

As many, including A.O. Scott for The New York Times have noted, the vilification of Ms. Heard and ongoing online harassment of her and those who have voiced support for her have been unprecedented in both vitriol and scale.

Much of this harassment was fueled by disinformation, misogyny, biphobia, and a monetized social media environment where a woman’s allegations of domestic violence and sexual assault were mocked for entertainment. The same disinformation and victim-blaming tropes are now being used against others who have alleged abuse.

In our opinion, the Depp v. Heard verdict and continued discourse around it indicate a fundamental misunderstanding of intimate partner and sexual violence and how survivors respond to it. The damaging consequences of the spread of this misinformation are incalculable. We have grave concerns about the rising misuse of defamation suits to threaten and silence survivors.

We condemn the public shaming of Amber Heard and join in support of her. We support the ability of all to report intimate partner and sexual violence free of harassment and intimidation.

“All of you switched up” isn’t that a good thing?? Shouldn’t you be happy that people aren’t supporting an abuser anymore and now supporting a victim?

Yes, of course it is.

Until you factor in how people publicly mocked her while just watching viral clips of the trial. Publicly mocked a woman giving her testimony of dv and sa.

And the amount of death threats we’ve received.

And the precedent it set.

It’s amazing and a lot of the time it takes a great deal of bravery to change your option based on new information. Especially to make that change out loud. But part of that growth means acknowledging that your previous opinions could have/did hurt people and that it had consequences far beyond your immediate reach.

A part of me still can't fathom how collectively and proudly stupid people were during the Heard vs Depp trial. Like supporting that man was just a trend or based from a recollection you had of him in the 90's. No brain was used
