I can’t necessarily speak for other people’s experiences, but for most young men in the US sex is basically the only form of intimacy they’re going to find. They absolutely want sex for its own sake, but then you have to factor in that they’ve been touch-starved for a fair chunk of their life even if they are lucky enough to have a stable friend group.

I’ve had periods of my life where I straight up went without physical contact with another person for a month or so, with no consistent form of intimacy on top of that. And speaking from experience, that will absolutely make you question your value as a human being. Our culture is hollowed out to the point of total alienation for a lot of people, and it leaves them in desperate places.

A healthy sex life is good. Needing sex to feel balanced is disordered thinking, and that starts at a social level.

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
