  1. One thing #MissKitty has observed that is baked in to #AI she uses is #Sexualization and #Violence. #Google's voice to text makes hideous mistakes frequently. Just awful. I believe that one of Google's primary objectives is to distract us and waste our time. Keep us off balance.

  2. CW: Mentions of nudity, sex, graphic images, NSFW

    Who made women believe that selling their body, dressing provocatively and exposing their sexuality online was empowering or liberating ?

    Was it the same people who make % of their sales or was it the same people who make $$$ because they have women dancing half naked on their platforms, for free, that attract half the audience and views ?

    Or maybe, it was the same industry that uses human sexuality for DECADES as a legitimate marketing strategy ?

    Or maybe, it derives from the same roots as majority of modern world corruption came from ?

    Freud was a psychologist who introduced psychology into spheres of marketing and governance around 1920. He sold the idea that all humans have primal feelings and desires which they unconsciously act upon. Sexuality was used as a major way to exert influence over people, and especially in marketing strategies and ads.

    That same technique was used in late 1920 to convince women to smoke cigarettes. Before it was seen as something manly, and in focus groups women expressed it was a symbol of a penis.
    Marketing used this later to sell to women the idea that cigarettes can make a woman look powerful and independent.

    Aren't we repeating the same story over and over again ?

    Let's not forget that behind all ideals the media and industry tries to sell us, we are still gullible beings, that are extremely easy to manipulate.

    Let's stop prostituting ourselves online for the sake of big corporations and platforms that are damaging to our health to begin with.

    This post is not inspired by any negative connotations to women or sexuality in any way, form or being.
    It comes from the fact, that as a society we forget how huge of a role in our life porn industry and hyper sexualization plays, in culture and relationships.
    Most importantly, the more we continue engaging in those influences, the more we are co-responsible for the effect it has on society, human relationships, gender roles and human sexuality.
    As a collective it's us who are responsible for stopping the cycle of disease that hypersexuality and porn industry has brought into our world, in the name of money and greed.

    The more we engage and continue this trend and exploitation alive, the more women will feel objectified, the more men will objectify women, the less connecting relationships will become, the more women will look like porn, the more porn and addiction we will see in our culture, daily interaction, media, art, and so on.

    Once you see it, You cannot unsee it. How many times have you went to cinema and saw an explicit sex scene ? How many times as a woman you feel like you need to compare yourself with women who expose their body and dress provocatively ? As a man, how many times have you objectified a woman in media or while having an intercourse ? In how many mainstream music videos there's no nudity or vulgar mentions of sexual nature ? As men and women, how many times have you played out porn scenes in the bedroom ?

    Let's not forget that no matter how comfortable we have became as people with hyper sexualization, it is not normal, porn is not equilivant of sex, it is meant to be addictive, and IT DOES have multitude of negative social consequences globally.

    We can complain endlessly about the state of modern relationships, the way men act, the way women act, the way we treat each other. We can blame external entities.
    But truth of the matter is that we all, as men, as women, are continuing and co-creating this damage as long as we let the damaging influences affect us, and get lured by their damaging ideals, and thus making them richer and more powerful.

    Below a small part of modern pornified industries examples. A remainder: we are all part of it, we were all brainwashed, and we need to all learn to de-normalize it. There is a chance You have previously seen or been engaged in those industries, which doesn't mean they are normal.

  3. How #Epstein’s biggest financial client shaped #millennial teen culture

    #VictoriasSecret and #AbercrombieAndFitch taught a generation of young people what was desirable.

    by Constance Grady, Mar 12, 2026

    Excerpt: "It appears that Epstein wasn’t the only bad actor surrounding Wexner. #EdRazek, former chief marketing officer at #LBrands and a close friend of Wexner’s, has been accused of nonconsensually groping Victoria’s Secret models and blackballing those who refused his advances. #MikeJeffries, the former CEO of Abercrombie & Fitch, is awaiting trial on #SexTrafficking and prostitution charges, having allegedly targeted young men who modeled for #Abercrombie, worked as the stores’ infamous shirtless greeters, or aspired to do any of the above. Bruce Weber, a photographer who shot many of Abercrombie’s famously edgy ads, has been accused of sexually exploiting male models."

  4. We remember #Catwoman? So many wanted inside of that suit. 😹😹😹 How to celebrate pornography with your clothes still on!! 😹😹😹 Unfortunately all related to the #Epstein files. The #sexualization of women in American #culture needs to end. You know that #MissKitty is not against sex. But but but.

  5. There has been a huge shift in the way we talk about, and probably think about sex.

    We should consider the ramifications of this change. We should consciously decide if the new way of thinking is better or worse.

  6. When this show aired in the 80s we said this woman was sexy.

    Today we say she's "sexualized"

    The meaning is the same, except that now it's a weird immoral thing that has been done to her, not a beautiful natural trait.

    #StopTheHysteria #Sexualization

  7. Humans are sexual. It's how we've reproduced all these millions of years :-D

    The entire "sexualization" paradigm is completely absurd.

    #StopTheHysteria #StopNeoPuritanism #Sexualization

  8. When people say "How dare you sexualize him/her?!?!"

    What they really mean is "Your thoughts are immoral and I am going to shame you for thinking bad things!!!"

    #StopTheHysteria #Sexualization

  9. When this show aired in the 80s we said this woman was sexy.

    Today she is sexualized.

    That means she's sexy, but somebody should be ashamed.

  10. Half the world screams "Young women wearing mini-skirts to school are *sexualizing* themselves!!!"

    The other half shouts "Anyone telling young women to cover their thighs in public is *sexualizing* them!!!"

    So nobody knows what sexualize means but everybody feel pretty damn sure it's a terrible thing that needs to be stopped immediately.

  11. No one wants to fuck fish. Fish are not sexy.

    But if fish were not sexual they could not reproduce and would go extinct.

    RadFems conflate feeling sexy with being sexual, which means they produce all sorts of completely ridiculous rhetoric :-D

    How I can distinguish "I think Hasselhoff is sexy"

    from "I am sexualizing Hasselhoff"?

  13. Everyone knows what consent means, but what the hell is "sexualize"?

    The dictionary says "make something sexual" but humans, like all other animals, are sexual by nature. Evolution made us this way 😀

  15. The #Sexualization paradigm is amazing.

    It says:

    Humans are not sexual. Eye-candy is not sexual.

    but sexualization is real.

    Denying the existence of sexuality is counter-productive bullshit.

  19. Every single sexual thought involves "sexualizing" someone.

    Let's quit pretending this stupid new word is useful for anything other than sex-phobic Puritan brain-washing.

  26. “It is illegal for women to go topless in most cities. Yet you can buy a magazine of a woman without her top on at any 7–11 store. So, you can sell breasts, but you can’t wear breasts, in America.” —Violet Rose

  27. These #homophobic #bigots are truly sick individuals. The shit they apparently fantasize about mirrors the false accusations they make about the #LGBTQ community. It's not normal or healthy for adults to spend their days hyperfocused on bizarre #child #sexualization fantasies while pretending to be champions for child safety. It is the worst sort of #projection, and a strong indicator that they are the ones who #children need to be protected from.
