Today's #portfolioday is also my birthday, and it would be a nice gift to see my work shared! I'm Jim Brin, an illustrator from Slovenia & I'd love to do some cover or illustration work. I have a diverse and experimental style and like to focus on fun colours and compositions. 🌈 neonufo.art

Remember how many powerful men are roaming free despite sexually harassing or assaulting women. And we barely can hold the average Joe accountable.

Also, how are we expected to achieve harmonious and healthy relationships between men and women (whether romantically or not) if we insist that there is such a gulf in how the genders perceive things? They really want men-women relationships to be a tragedy.

because "true men" would never reject sex and cannot be violated. Then, sexual humiliation also seems quite common among older teens, especially within cliques and teams. So, yes, frats are just another stage for this socialization process.

Indeed. Sexual violence is foundational to hegemonic male socialization, which defines manhood as domination and appropriation. I mean, a common "becoming a man" ritual among male relatives is to take the boy to have sex with an older woman, regardless of his capacity for consent...

This is literally human experimentation. These people aren't even being secretive about it, meaning that they see Africans as less-than humans and more like "animals" (which speaks about the intersection between speciesism and racism).

Unfortunately, nothing surprising. This "sexual assault accusations and charges ruin a man's life" is simply a myth, and cases like this corroborate that. People just assume the victim moved past it without any input from her.

Meanwhile, to be accepted as a man or nonbinary, his or their "womanly desirability' cannot be perceived, or else it could be a waste for cis men.

This is certainly a morbid demonstration of how gender is assigned and recognized based on the sexual availability and desirability of a subject by cis men. To be accepted as a woman is to be acknowledged as a receptive, submissive body.

But it's also possible that they misappropriated the neutral term "gender ideology" because even the sociological analysis of gender already means rejecting gender as a "biological given" beyond any scrutiny or examination.

Corps by definition cannot allow much structural flexibility, especially after reaching a certain size. So, I doubt there are much avenues for avoiding coercion at the organizational level.

I mean, Co-ops aren't as flexible as a model insofar as the incentive is to maximize profit, but I don't think that this captures all variations in economical conditions or problems. On the other hand, LLC small-to-medium enterprises seem the most flexible.

The fact that too many women (mostly cis, but still) are getting into the "Malfoid" trend is so sad and pathetic. Why would you contribute to a trend named after an InCel misogynistic slur and is mostly dedicated to misogynistic and white supremacy gooning?

CHAPTER 29
Pedophilia and Computer-Generated Child 
Pornography
Ole Martin Moen and Aksel Braanen Sterri
To be a pedophile, according to the World Health Organization, is to have a 
sexual preference for children, boys or girls or both, usually of prepubertal or 
early pubertal age.1 Pedophilia is widespread—approximately two percent of 
the adult population is primarily sexually attracted to children2—and world-
wide, approximately 1 in 5 girls and 1 in 12 boys, is a victim of sexual abuse.3
Most researchers working on pedophilia are psychologists, psychiatrists, and 
criminologists. How might ethicists contribute to the discussion? In this chap-
ter, we ask, and seek to answer, three distinctively ethical questions about 
pedophilia: (1) Is it immoral to be a pedophile? (2) Is it immoral for pedophiles 
to seek out sexual contact with children? (3) Is it immoral for pedophiles to 
satisfy their sexual preferences by using computer-generated graphics, sex dolls, 
and/or sex robots that mimic children? We hope to show, through our discus-
sion of these questions, that an ethical investigation of pedophilia can help 
advance our understanding of how pedophilia should be understood, assessed, 
and handled.
Is It Immoral to Be a Pedophile?
Notice that according to the World Health Organization’s definition above, to 
be a pedophile is not the same as pursuing sexual contact with children. To be 
a pedophile is to have a sexual preference for children, but to have a preference 
is not the same as acting on that preference. Our first aim in this chapter is to 
discuss the moral status of merely being a pedophile.Conclusion
If our arguments in this chapter are sound, then being a pedophile—in the 
sense of having a sexual preference for children—is in itself neither moral nor 
immoral. Engagement in adult-child sex, however, is immoral, the reason for 
which is the expected harm to children. Finally, using simulations of adult-child 
sex is morally acceptable and might, in some cases, be the best available option. 
If these conclusions are correct, what practical implications follow?
One central implication is that in dealing with pedophilia, our aim should 
not be to find outlets for our disgust and outrage, but rather, to minimize what 
is the real problem: harm to children.
On the least revisionist side, the aim of reducing harm provides us with a 
good justification for upholding current bans on adult-child sex and the pro-
duction of child pornography. There are, however, also a number of more 
revisionist implications. One revisionist implication is that we should abstain 
from condemning pedophiles unless we know that they have pursued sexual 
contact with children. It is gravely unjust to condemn non-offending pedo-
philes; many of them are perfectly good people who should indeed be praised 
for handling their sexuality in ways that do not harm children.
Today’s widespread condemnation discourages pedophiles fr

Unsurprisingly, people's assumptions are biased on favor of the perpretator. "What if it was one-time thing?" "The docs aren't available, but maybe the victim already forgave him," "what if..." What if they learn to be keep it quiet, fuckers.

Some people out there unwisely (or maliciously) believe that the victim preferring privacy (citation needed, by the way) indicates that the situation is in the past. As if survivors didn't avoid escalation to prevent revictimization. So much misinformation.

Lynching is a prime example where an intersectional analysis involving race and gender relations is required. And that framework explains why the same conclusions don't apply at all here: this is a white, privileged man, FFS.

Acrata The Gorgon @acratathegorgon.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
Indeed. Lynching was often a response to what the male relatives of the supposedly "dishonored" woman regarded as a property infraction. They were concerned about black men tainting their white bloodline or family reputation.

Men react with outrage at any direct and generalized confrontation, usually yielding the "Not All Men" reminder. However, the academic and lived knowledge is undeniable: sexual violence perpetrated by men is a matter of male social bonding.

Party invitations expressing this ideology depict a woman lying on a pool table, or in some other position suggestive of sexual submission. The hosts of the party promote behavior aimed at seduction. Seduction means plying women with alcohol or giving them drugs in order to “break down resistance.”

[...] Thus, this discourse operates as a strategy of knowledge that sanctions the deployment of male power in acts of sexual aggression. The ideology that promotes “pulling train” is seen in the discourse and practices associated with some parties on campus.

Acrata The Gorgon @acratathegorgon.bsky.social · 01/10/2026
The sexual act is not concerned with sexual grati cation but with the deployment of the penis as a concrete symbol of masculine social power/dominance. The male sexual bonding evident in “pulling train” is a sexual expression and display of the power of the brotherhood to control/dominate women.

"I suggest that “pulling train” is a form of sexual expression that is de ned as normal and natural (hence normative) by some men and women. In the act of “pulling train” polymorphous sexuality is focused primarily on the penis and, hence, is phallocentric.
