and frankly i think its weird that people think its at all controversial to say "some thoughts are not ok thoughts to have"

haha "yeah"
wait are you saying that when i said "some thoughts are not ok" what i meant was "some thoughts should be illegal"?
― max, Thursday, 3 December 2009 03:52 (fourteen years ago) link
yeah if you have a bad thought you must stop it!!!
― harbl, Thursday, 3 December 2009 03:52 (fourteen years ago) link
yall
I guess it's a good thing that thoughts, until expressed, only belong to you. The scrutiny for victimless actions is harsh enough.

did you see the ~~~~thoughts~~~~ on that one

yeah it seems analogous to arguments i've had about porn where someone critiques aspects of it and another person argues, saying "well banning all pornography is a violation of freedom of expression and fascist to boot!" and it's like, when did i ever say i advocated banning pornography? it's not okay to point out some things about some pornography are fucked up?
nb i am kind of fascist tho :-/

there you go, now this thread is about porn, too
what happens if you imagine hypothetical ass

people get hell of DEFENSIVE about this stuff!!! by "this stuff" i mean SEXXXXUALITY obviously. probably because we are all SCARED OF SEX secretly

haha i was trying to find that post of max's about porn from the nabisco discussion about how ppl arguing in relationships take ideas from movies but i couldnt find it
― ice cr?m hand job (deej), Thursday, 3 December 2009 03:56 (fourteen years ago) link
Max no, of course not but I don't think that anyone itt thought anyone actually said that some thoughts should be illegal. I *think* they were saying that when you start saying some thoughts are not OK to have that you might as well be saying they should be illegal.

did u guys know that it is actually impossible to have someone police your thoughts??
― crazy farting throwback jersey (gbx), Thursday, 3 December 2009 03:57 (fourteen years ago) link
If there's no porn that you find offensive and fucked up, your filtering mechanism is underdeveloped.

ugh it is like--if i come in somewhere and am like "yall there are some words that are not ok to say," i dont think anyone would be like "FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING CENSOR--KILL YOURSELF FACIST" but the minute the word "thoughts" comes into play everyone gets all 1984
― max, Thursday, 3 December 2009 03:58 (fourteen years ago) link
i have had a few thoughts which i have regretted and have censured myself for - fortunately i am pretty tolerant w/ non-harmful predilections so most stuff sails on by with a twitch of the eyebrow
― a. cole, u thic (acoleuthic), Thursday, 3 December 2009 03:59 (fourteen years ago) link
FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING CENSOR--KILL YOURSELF FACIST :-( Who said that? I hope it didn't sound like I said anything remotely like that anywhere.

no i was exaggerating for comic effect--you have been very pleasant on this thread erica
― max, Thursday, 3 December 2009 04:00 (fourteen years ago) link
i mostly just mean shakey and contenderizer getting all self-righteous about their right to have thoughts or whatever
― max, Thursday, 3 December 2009 04:01 (fourteen years ago) link
aw, Erica, you totally didn't, you've been totally nice in this thread
lol xpost
― horseshoe, Thursday, 3 December 2009 04:01 (fourteen years ago) link
totally
most people on this thread - the ones who have actually gone into depth and plumbed their own souls abt this - have been very pleasant and interesting
also what is the position if a strange man asks if you saw the ass on lara croft/his drawing/marge simpson
is that just sad or is it creepy or is it kinda both, and is the guy a sexual terrorist or just one in waiting
― a. cole, u thic (acoleuthic), Thursday, 3 December 2009 04:01 (fourteen years ago) link
Hahahahahaha I know you were exaggerating for comic effect it's just that all of asudden I'm completely paranoid about upsetting ppl now. I'm sorry guys. Like I'm sitting here going omg is he being facetious? Me = ridiculous.

i am really having trouble wrapping my head around this idea that your thoughts are just like, doing as they please in your brain and don't even try to control them because they are just happening, like your thoughts are separate from you? who is driving this thing?
― harbl, Thursday, 3 December 2009 04:03 (fourteen years ago) link
^ me thinking thoughts to myself btw
your animal sexuality is driving ur thoughts harbl
― max, Thursday, 3 December 2009 04:04 (fourteen years ago) link
and if u try to deny ur animalistic rape urges why youre no better than adolf hitler
i was thinking 2day because of this thread abt how last winter i was on the train one night and this young girl like mb 15-16 leaned into me and kissed my cheek really lightly and then she and her friends bolted off at the next stop laughing like maniacs and i kept wondering if it was because i was p disgusting and that made the dare more ~daring~ or mb they tht i was cuet
idk i dont think i wld like ppl thinking about my body its p unnerving and makes me feel bad & ppl p much never do so laurel otm imo
i stopped reading this thread like 150 posts ago fyi

sometimes it is surprising, when one is a divergent thinker, what the brain can muster; often it is one's job to steer away with a sniff; the flywheel of one's idle imagination is to be indulged and titillated but if one entertains something that will either have no good consequences or is completely futile for too long, the mania can actually affect one's behaviour for the worse

ugh i gotta stop using the word 'actually'

i think all i want from this thread is some evidence that sometimes men consider what it might be like to be a woman in this situation tbh
― horseshoe, Thursday, 3 December 2009 04:06 (fourteen years ago) link
i have no clue what any of that means with all due respect! xpost

yeah but see this has reminded me, too, of a stupid argument i had recently with a friend that ended up going to logical extremes---he was asserting that ANY woman ANYwhere that exchanged ANY kind of sexual favor (this includes porn) for ANY remuneration was, for real, "pitiable" and was the actual victim (whether she knew it or not!!!!) of an ageless, gendered, power gradient. which was one of those rules that might be true in practice (like our now hypothetical/strawman crepe) but that is also demolished by the exception. a square is a rhombus, but not vice-versa, etc
i mean sometimes i think that that kind of argument (i realize "that kind of argument" is hell of vague, but bear with me) is waaaaaay more sexist than the alternative, you know?

one time a dude told me he thought maleness was more defining of who he was than human-ness. like dude thought he had more in common with a male parrot than a human female, i guess.
― horseshoe, Thursday, 3 December 2009 04:09 (fourteen years ago) link
Lamp - I like that story too because it's fascinating to me how ppl have different reactions to things. Before I read the second have of your post I was thinking awwwwwwwww that's really sweet - those girls had a little crush!
― bear say hi to me (ENBB), Thursday, 3 December 2009 04:09 (fourteen years ago) link
i am not sure what "that kind of argument" is? mine or your friends? i left mine purposefully vague lol

I agree with your assessment of this but I don't think that it's an unusual opinion for ppl to have. I hear this sort of think a lot tbh.
