One thing I like about porn is that it's ironically very honest in some ways. It's really hard to lie to yourself about what turns you on when you're alone and looking for porn, and porn culture is often extremely tolerant and accepting of whatever weird shit you're into. 1/
I've been to a few porn conventions and it's a really fascinating combination of showiness and also direct shamelessness. You can't deny what moves your genitals, and so to some degree wokeness and its shame penetrates less in those spheres. 2/
Are you into black teens? Here's a parade of black teens welcoming your jizz. Are you into girls with dicks who try to trick you into sleeping with them? There's a whole booth for that. Do you wanna degrade or be degraded in any way? Sure! It's all kinda gross but also I love it.
Your genitals are the arbiter of truth. No matter how much you want to signal, how much shame society heaps on you, your genitals will stand firm and strong, undeterred by fear. They're like a pure honing beacon to the things you're not supposed to be drawn to.
ok to all you ppl saying environment has an impact on sexual preferences, sure, yes, sorry i wasn't technically correct and failed to put sufficient disclaimers of "to some degree" into my artistic tweet about genitals being the arbiter of truth

Often, beautiful people downplay their own beauty. If you complain about how you don't like x feature, your beautiful friend might be like "I totally get it, I hate a feature about me too."
This is kinda annoying, and also how I feel about productive people. 1/
I often have a deep distrust that people who go "Oh yeah, I suck at being productive too" actually understand what my productivity issues are like. I am suspicious their perception of my difficulties are blinded by them trying to relate through their own, more minor hardships.
Some part of me wants to go "no you DON'T get it. you're acting like you get it but you have obviously accomplished big projects and so I don't trust you or your advice for me" even though I know this response is a little silly.

Below is a general summary of what I think is probably going on with black people in the US. This is based off memory of studies/data I've seen, but I'm open to updates if any of my facts seem wrong:
Black people are subject to greater police activity than white people, this seems supported by data.
This seems to be roughly proportional to crime black people commit; as in, low-crime black communities see roughly proportional police activity to white communities.
Racism seem to exist, but "unjustified" racism (e.g., disproportionate to crime) is relatively low and seems heavily city dependent.
So why do black communities tend to have higher crime? It seems to be fatherlessness, not poverty; poor, father-intact families have low crime.

i entered a CH room titled "where the caucasian people @? ask a black person a question"
where ppl were getting mad at a white woman for being 'ignorant' and not 'reading the room' - then proceed to tell white people it's 'white fragility' to be afraid of entering black rooms.
tbf it was another white woman telling other white ppl it's their fault for experiencing fear around entering black-dominant rooms, but this was supported by other black voices.
i've never encountered so much overt and proud racism before since joining Clubhouse

In my experience, the biggest unspoken and often unseen social motivator is attractiveness.
Consistently, hotter people are treated better, even subtly, and consistently most people around me have either denied or ignored that they're treating/being treated differently.
Hotter people are more confident, because they've been getting this boost from society that's invisible to them. In their world, people just like them more, treat them better, and they don't see how unattractive people don't get the same treatment.
I've seen my male friends swarm an attractive women and describe her personality as glowing, her demeanor as confident and assured, when in my opinion she was not actually cool; they were blinded by her face and they were completely unaware to how blinded they were.

storytime:
when I was a child, my dad was extremely cruel in a lot of ways. I remember trying to empathize with him and being terrified because he didn't seem 'aware' of the pain he was doing, even though the signs were there.
This was terrifying because -
when i imagined being my dad, i realized that it 'felt good', in the sense that there was no sense of being wrong. He felt like a victim, persecuted and hurt by others - and this was *exactly how I felt*. I felt like he was hurting me, and like he shouldn't be.
2/
So from an early age I struggled a lot with the paranoia that I was really cruel and hurting a lot of other people, because I saw that cruel people *felt as correct as I did*. A lot of my attention went to trying to figure out how I could tell - from the inside, how do you know 3

In clubhouse (a voice-only app), I've had the chance to listen to lots of rooms of entirely black people talk, which I rarely get to hear in my daily life.
It turns out black people on clubhouse talk about being black a *lot*. They reference blackness in relation to everything.
It's really fascinating; blackness permeates as an identity in a way I've never heard another ethnicity or nation referenced (but similar to how I've heard Christians talk). It's very tribal, and touches on many aspects of conversation you wouldn't expect to be black-related.
I felt very intensely 'white' when listening to these groups, when usually I don't notice my skin color if I'm in an e.g., asian-dominant group. It felt very clear that I was *not* in their in-group at all; there was a huge cultural divide that feels explicitly upheld.
