IMO trad isn’t losing, it’s emerging, and I think you can draw a pretty clean line there from a culture that increasingly uses “vanilla” as a put-down for girls that don’t want the crap beaten out of them during sex & “ghosting” as a euphemism for using & discarding sex partnershttps://twitter.com/Aella_Girl/status/1417312778310746113 …

I do think the harms *are* less profound, at least in direct contrast (given that subjective suffering is always independently valid). Also think trad ppl motivated by ‘wanna live my life the way i want’ is extremely good and i strongly support it and you’re right to fight for it

I think you’re wrong, at least insofar as sexual trauma, unrelenting anxiety and a sense of hopelessness can go. In terms of actual enforced barbarism, maybe not, but I’m not sure how much further “subjective suffering” can go when someone is already suicidal or close to it.

I don’t even think trad culture generally offers much commentary on “deviant sexuality” aside from the fact that modern culture incentivizes young women to participate in it reluctantly and doesn’t obligate anyone to help pick up the pieces when that works out poorly
-
Yeah i think comparable moderate versions of trad and progressive sex cultures aren’t inherently focusing too much on the opposition? Both seem to be saying “the extreme version of the opposition hurts me”, which is reasonable

pedantic point suppressing deviant sexuality might have been a successful strategy historically

It gets murky fast. “how did our ancestors define and determine sexual deviancy”,https://twitter.com/visakanv/status/1417149884021428225 …
