#Puritanicalism
I see this so often in queer kink and horror communities. The surface level aesthetics and looking taboo or atypical outweighing ideas of the media and communities and individuals. That performative tabooness usually leads to puritanicalism when they are shown the more niche and less typical spheres

Puritanicalism is Putrid regardless of Whom Peddles it,

Porn is a natural expression of a person's emotions like any other art, art shouldn't be hierarchical based on

whether you like it or not,
whether you find it comfortable or not

It is actually essential for more leftist and progressive movements to divorce themselves completely from anti-sex worker rhetoric. We have been left out of every major movement and it has been to their detriment. You are leaving out oppressed voices bc you bought into whorphobia and puritanicalism

I'm shocked they're even labelling kissing as pornographic. WHAT is bro on about. Puritanicalism it's not just a plague it's a scourge

Literally like was the initial comment weird as hell? Yes but acting like people having concerns Abt said pile on esp being seen as idk ultimate strike against puritanicalism are the same as sympathising w fascists is a Choice

Its happens sometimes, people take it personally or see it as a sign of hate, or vilification, or even puritanicalism...

It sucks cuz I kinda hate blocking people, it doesnt feel good to deny people the chance to even see my posts, but man after so many years my heart is brittle and my nerves fried

Also, if anyone out there wants to pay me to write an essay about this and sex and gender and puritanicalism in conversation with the sex purge movie ... I'll do it 👀
Really loved Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma. The world needs many many more movies about sex, transition, finding someone to match your horny freak, self-insert fanfiction, and Gillian Anderson holding a BIG plate of fried chicken.

yes, there is such a weird resurgence of puritanicalism everywhere right now. You're not going to get me caring that someone mentioned sex exists.

This happens to the kind of hero whose egotism, anger, or puritanicalism gets the better of him, then seeks out the villain to punish them for the very notion. Maybe they blame the villain for putting the idea in their head. Maybe they just think they can stop it.

Good luck averting prophecy.

Truly why are people blaming the rise of "puritanicalism" in the US on Gen Z, the most secular generation, and not the Christian gerontocracy that is actually behind the legislation that has made sex work more dangerous than ever?

I still think about the "don't sexualize nuns" discourse from years ago on the regular.

I shouldn't let that that particular one get to me but it just... Had such outlandish takes and really, really showcased how deeply evangelical puritanicalism had taken root in a lot of people.

The slow return of puritanicalism is a plague.
‘ONE NIGHT ONLY’ director Will Gluck says they cut out “so much nudity” from the film because he thinks audiences dislike sex on screen.

“Whenever people now see nudity or very adult situations in a big theater, they get uncomfortable.”

Anyway I’m just thinking about how colonization, imperialism, white supremacy, puritanicalism, and capitalism have systematically infiltrated every single aspect of our existence in an attempt to make us dependable on them.

Either I have VERY well insulated my feed or people haven't seen the new 7seas license dhjddkdk bc I have yet to see anyone calling for their cancelation over the new """shota""" manga , which is a pleasant surprise in an age of puritanicalism

In this age of online puritanicalism, even an asexual adult can be a criminal just because someone somewhere found them hot.

Masculinity in our modern red pill times is truly only defined as anything in opposition to femininity but that’s not what it actually is, it’s what those who push gender binaries and who’re supremacy and puritanicalism neeeed it to be

Coffee shop AUs were developed by the CIA to destabilize queer communities by using white washing puritanicalism to make you think sex is gross

“Art should disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed.” Rings the most true in times of growing illiteracy and puritanicalism in media analysis.

Something about having grown up in the '90s made me very resistant to moral panics.

Because it seems like gen xers and genzers got caught by them in a way that millennials simply didn't.

Maybe because we grew up during the height of conservative puritanicalism

If you want to only read sanitised, uncomplicated books and refuse to question where that rhetoric comes from (99% of the time it's right wing reactionaries and moral puritanicalism) that's a you problem. But frankly then my writing and its difficult subject matter isn't for you.

"I only watch good media and anything I don't watch is Problematic" is dangerously close to reactionary puritanicalism in its fastidiousness towards perceived goodness and attaching your identity to the things you watch. Of course it isn't as easy or black and white as that, either.
