NSFW Poll: If you had to choose between porn websites and Sanctioned Suicide - how would you decide?

[noname223]

There was a suggestion to integrate a porn subforum to Sanctioned Suicide. I think this Is a bad idea. But it led me to this question.

As a man without relationship that's a difficult question. I cannot really decide. Maybe 51% porn, 49% Sanctioned Suicide. I had to find an alternative for SaSu.

 

[Namelesa]

Choose Sanctioned Suicide as it fulfills needs for me such as the ability to vent freely and being of value to others struggling like me as well as info for methods. Porn is just something nice to spice up masturbation sometimes but isn't required for me. I can just exclusively use my imagination or just look at my own body as I am attracted to it instead to increase the fun of pleasuring myself.

 

[SecretDissociation]

Absolutely Sasu because you can find pornography almost anywhere and basically everywhere, I don't fancy seeing porn on the forum that makes me feel seen and heard and normal TT. I think that might actually make it worse...

 

[DivineSpark]

SASU, my libido and sex drive is dead lol

 

[LigottiIsRight]

The easiest choice in my life by far: I never watch porn (I'm asexual, zero interest in seeing others having any kind of sex).

 

[Dejected 55]

This is like the old "Do you go to school or carry your books?" joke.

Like the meme says, why not both? Who has to choose?

 

[SVEN]

SS is a great comfort to me.

 

[whywere]

I have no issues with adult entertainment, for myself I find it mind numbing and a total waste of time.

With that said, SaSu, is a VERY special place for so very many folks, including me, and the power of loving, caring and having empathy and tying this all together like a family makes this site so special and powerful. To not only dilute it with adult site{s} but any other material would take away the very powerful support network that helps so many, including me and also ratch up all the noise and garbage that this site gets already from everything like government to folks who not only do not understand this site, BUT never have any intention of expanding their horizons about SaSu.

I absolutely see no reason to contaminate this place with ANY other site ever, much less a damn nudie show, no thank you.

Easy. I haven't watched porn in maybe decades now. I've got a really good imagination. I can work with what's already in there. Sasu all the way.

Yikes- what do you mean, merge the two? Get members to create content? Lol. I don't have the figure for that... I imagine you mean, share content. I'd say that could be incredibly triggering. Plenty members here are victims of sexual assault.

Obviously, it's not only men who are the aggressors but, I've seen more male examples here. While there are some great guys here, there are also a fair few that clearly hate women. That's not to say they aren't great too. It depends how they express that dislike but some would likely like to express it in a violent, sexual way. I don't like to imagine the kind of appetites they would want fulfilled. Not just in a kinky way I imagine. I would think it would be full on humiliation and sadism for some. I imagine that would be immensely triggering to people who have actually been actually assaulted.

There are also members who have said they struggle with paraphilia, especially focussed on children. What if people start posting very borderline videos of actors who look too young, even if they're not? Nah, I don't think we need any other reason for the site to be targetted for heavy criticism.

Plus, there's no official sign up process here that verifies age. Surely, we don't want to encourage more minors here because they've learnt they can access porn here.

Lately I've kinda been needing neither.

Merge both is obviously a joke because someone seriously suggested it. The option would the same how the person who proposed it envisioned it. Talking and sharing content, not creating.

I also think it is a bad idea for many reasons. And yes SA victims could be easily triggered.

 

[cemeteryismyhome]

A bad idea, I think, mainly because it could give authorities another reason to try to justify shutting down or restricting sasu.

 

[SmilingNoMore]

Easy, no need for porn, but SaSu is a lifeline.

 

[SilentSadness]

According to pro lifers this is already a porn website where members get turned on by watching others ctb. I'm joking of course, this site is much more valuable and there aren't any good alternatives at all. This site is the best thing since sliced bread

 

[psp3000]

sasu since the porn "ban"/regulation really made me think about the ethics of pornography and discover that I really don't need to watch it or have a need to

and I don't want to contribute to the bad things pornography can cause for other people (I don't know how to explain it but if you watch enough documentaries about it I think you'll get it, although I don't think I am completely against such content because for some people that's (sex work) the only way they can make money for survival etc.)

also since there is a porn "ban"/regulation I wouldn't want porn to be on sasu because then the site would be taken down 100% (based on what the forum/site is about) at least where I am instead of the whole ID verification thing (reserved for sites with extreme stuff to my knowledge) like on a porn site

 

[Daenerys Targaryen]

Those places disgust me. There's no pleasure, no feelings, nothing when an illness destroys you. Only anhedonia. I don't even feel the touch of the sheets or the water in the shower. I don't feel anything alive inside me

 

[YandereMikuMistress]

Ss all the way, I hate porn I think it's a sickness, it corrupts one's mind and fucks with your perception of others especially of the opposite sex, specifically women as women are the majority of victims when it comes to being in the porn industry or not even as many "porn" videos are taken unknowingly, and in almost every porn site I've seen the top categories and videos are fetishizing barely legal videos or there's all dressed up in kids clothes or a school uniforms and my god the whole recurring front covers where they must make sure the girl looks like she's crying or in pain,, I fucking hate porn and I find it inexcusable and is a hindrance to anyone's development and i hope to never have to start seeing porn threads on here or advertisements for it, I wouldn't want porn and ss to mix whatsoever.

 

[LostLily]

I need this website an a way to express myself unfiltered with out any judgement

 

[RoseGirl]

Normally I'd probably choose porn? But my libido is so nuked that i haven't looked at one in days. My gf is the only thing that turns me on now lol

 

[Rynalia]

SaSu, no hesitation.

 

[landmine]

Sasu,
mixing porn with this site is a very bad idea. it may lead to bad videos coming onto this site and just overall will change the vibes of this site..

 

[GhostInTheMachine]

I can live without either tbh, but both have their benefits. Porn is a nice little treat from time to time, and Sasu is a nice place to vent some stress. Honestly, picking between the two wouldn't matter because they're both have the same target on their back, and shooters don't ten to discriminate.

 

[Griever]

SaSu is the only thing I need in my sad life

 

[Cauliflour]

Most porn for lesbians is shit anyway. I can live without it.

 

[Average Joe]

I really hope porn isn't added to this site. If people enjoy masturbating to videos then that's fair enough, no judgements to them but there's thousands of sites for that.

I have actually noticed a lot more NSFW questions pop up recently, or maybe it's just because I've returned to the site after a while.

 

[CynicalCyanide]

Normally I'd probably choose porn? But my libido is so nuked that i haven't looked at one in days. My gf is the only thing that turns me on now lol

that doens't even sound so bad lol
I haven't used this site enough to choose yet. Though, porn ruined me. I get pelasure out of it but it would be better for me to let it go. so, SaSu

 

[divinemistress36]

As a woman porn is degrading. A lot of underage women in it. None of the stuff they do in it actually turns most women on in real life. Its desensitizing men and making them think of women as just sex objects and seeing random peoples gentials is gross

100% agree with you.

I live in the U.S., so there is free press and speech, and everyone can do as they please, but for me, it is pure mind numbing and a waste of time and also what you so eloquently mentioned.

I think I'm an odd duck in a lot of ways, but the way I process porn has also always been different than most men I've known. I don't like crazy porn or porn that looks like anywhere close to underage is involved. I'm attracted to women closer to my own age anyway, and at 55 that means I'm looking for the 40+ year old women so I'm way safe in the of-age criteria.

That said, I know it's not terribly reflective of real sex. Problem is, the only sex I've had is with escorts and truth be told, that's kind of closer to porn sex than sex with a non-escort would be. I mean, they pretend they like whatever you do and you're "the best" and so forth and it leaves me just as empty afterwards for lack of emotional connection as does porn.

Porn is a crutch for me to be a poor substitute for what I don't have. It's not something I'm addicted to or turn to instead of a real woman. I've always said I would much rather be in a relationship with a woman I loved, who loved me, and not be having regular sex than to have porn or sex with someone I had no emotional connection to.

I think at least some of my dating problem is being too respectful of women. I know that sounds stupid or like I'm humble-bragging. But I've related before of the dates I've had where I didn't try any typical sexual advancement and had those women tell me afterwards they felt no "spark" or didn't think I liked them because I didn't try anything. Men I know who are kind of pigs seem to get way more dates and way more repeat dates with women. I'm not saying all women want jerks. I'm just saying most women seem to be more willing to give a jerk a chance to see if she can "tame" him than they are to give a respectful guy a chance to see if after they become comfortable with other he might be able to arouse her.

That's what always frustrates me. Women will absolutely reject jerks... but after giving those jerks multiple chances. They don't want the jerk to stay a jerk, so why do they keep giving them so many chances? Women could fix most relationship problems in a generation if boys and girls were taught to be honest and respectful to each other and give the nicer people more chances than the ones who aren't nice to them. Men aren't going to teach their kids that, so it kind of has to be the mothers I think.

Another angle for me. Sometimes porn depresses me. Even when it is fake and not reflective of reality, it's still people having sex and at least pretending to be in a relationship for entertainment purposes. I see that and I think of how I live in a world where I can't get a date, but I could pay for sex and other people can pay people to have sex and let them watch it. That's kind of crazy.

Also, regular movies and TV shows where they don't have nudity... I always get depressed during love scenes. Movies that I have seen all the way through and like the plot, on re-watch I will usually skip the romantic scenes so they don't ruin the rest of the movie for me. And I might be one of the only people ever who will watch porn and fast-forward through the sex scenes to watch the plot. Some of those porn-parody videos where they are parodying some movie or superheroes or something are actually entertaining despite the sex scenes.

the community on sasu is one of a kind, who needs porn anyways when you have
