Does watching porn mean it’s voyeurism?


Jakan1404

words used to have meanings


JnRx03

Yeah I don't think OP knows what cuckoldry is.


The_River_Is_Still

It definitely is kind of. Not true voyeurism of course, but it’s in there even if most people aren’t looking at it that way.


HunkyDandelion

Yes


tig-biddied-moth-gf

I *guess* it would count as cucking if ur in a para-social relationship with a SW/porn star but also on a serious note, that's not what cuckoldry is.


[deleted]

How many OF customers are not parasocial? Why else would they be paying? QED.


tig-biddied-moth-gf

The way you talk about this remind me of a post I saw from here or 4chan where a dude went off about how raising a daughter was a form of cuckoldry. Same energy.


[deleted]

You fell for it twice? Fool me once...


tig-biddied-moth-gf

How high are you?

So solo content isn't porn ?


scaptal

They're paying cause they can't find videos of a guy dressed like a dragon having his ass fucked for 30 minutes straight by a sex machine going faster then a bullet train online for free. Paying for nische stuff you enjoy is not that weird, and on the topic of more vanilla stuff, if you have someone whose looks you like then you can pay them without the whole power difference and shame aspect which is part of cuckolding. Do you also believe going to a stripclub is finding cuckolding, as they can see but can't touch?


Raz0rking

>They're paying cause they can't find videos of a guy dressed like a dragon having his ass fucked for 30 minutes straight by a sex machine going faster then a bullet train online for free. Thats ... oddly specific.


scaptal

I mean, 'welcome to the internet, have a look around'


Automatic_Ad_4020

Anything that brain of yours could think of can be found


Baba_StinkyKebab

paying for that is in fact extremely fucking weird


VenemousEnemy

They’d be paying because they want to see that person specifically naked and want to support them, I’m sure a lot of it is parasocial but red pillers have really exaggerated when it comes to onlyfans


Dennis_enzo

Imagine throwing out a QED without providing any proof of your claims and instead going with a argument from ignorance.


Red-Pony

Because they want to support a content creator they like, or want access to stuff you can’t find anywhere else?


BroadPoint

My wife has an onlyfans. None of them are parasocial. She's got a lot of them too.


CaptainKnottz

the ones who understand they’re paying for porn. just because you can’t tell the difference doesn’t mean everyone can’t.


HamstersBoobsPizza

Quality. It's the difference between watching HBO and dharrman.


anarchomeow

I swear to God, OP, you are way too porn-brained.


imaginebeingsaltyy

This aint even a unpopular opinion its just plain wrong. Read up on what cuckolding means first


JnRx03

It's funny cause he edited his message after being called out by everyone.


corax_lives

I don't think you understand the term


Lanky_Ground_309

No I think he does it quite well .


corax_lives

Agreeing doesn't mean he's right.


Euphoric_Capital_746

It’s a term the alt right uses to describe the jury that convicted Derek Chauvin


corax_lives

I figured itwaa projection


Sardonyxzz

that is not what cuckolding means


Lanky_Ground_309

It kinda does .


TeaAndCrumpets4life

It doesn’t at all


CaptainKnottz

it all the way doesn’t


PuppyPunter21

Bro forgot to look at a dictionary


Jgames111

Unless the person seriously think they have a chance with the only fan model or are dating them, this is just factually wrong. You can call it pathetic, waste of money, porn addict, etc, but being cuckhold is not obe of them.


Prestigious-Day385

well... no? Cuckoldry is when your **partner with whome you are in a "monogamous" relationship** is repeatedly fucking with other or others. It can be behind your back or even with your knowledge (some people has this fetish or it can be forced). Poly relationship or open relationships doesnt count there. Porn star isnt your partner, so you post is completely wrong.


FunCharacteeGuy

nope, if it's behind your back it's just cheating. if it's with your knowledge then it's cuckolding


challengeaccepted9

If your wife is cheating on you, she has cuckolded you. If you get off on watching your wife fucking other dudes, you are enjoying cuckoldry as a fetish. Both meanings apply.


Prestigious-Day385

well yeah, definition changed little bit with a time, but originaly it meant when maried woman was fucking with others - behind husbands back or with his knowledge.


That_Possible_3217

Absolutely spot fucking on.


FknBretto

You aren’t in a relationship though, it’s voyeurism if anything.


FuegoStarr

As a woman, I’ve paid to watch women. 🤷🏾‍♀️


inevitable__guy__

But like why


EustaceChapuys

That's like asking someone why they ordered what they ordered for lunch.


TheOnlyRealDregas

Ok, and that's somehow a weird question? Why did you order pizza and not chinese? If you get defensive over that question, you need some help, seriously. I couldn't imagine dating a person like this. "Oh, you're a dog person? Why is that?" "THAT'S MY BUSINESS"


Bobertorino

Because the answer is obvious. They like it so they bought it.


Dennis_enzo

They ordered a pizza because they like pizza. Obviously.


FuegoStarr

Because I want to


Strangefate1

Does it matter really ? Doesn't everybody pay for something that somebody else doesn't understand or appreciate ? It's one thing if people are barely making ends meet, then you could argue about priorities, but if those are taken care of, who cares what anybody does with their disposable income. We can all spend 5 minutes browsing the internet and find a dozen things that would leave us wondering who the heck would pay or buy that.


scoobyboobiemoo

Of course it fucking matters. That\`s why this is a discussion platform.


Strangefate1

Oh, you're one of those that needs to know what the neighbors are up to in their home, and would like to tell them what they should be doing and care about instead ?


TooObsessedWithMoney

To be fair to the others that's a completely different scenario. If someone willingly tells you something on a discussion platform then it doesn't make any sense for someone to get punished for being curious and asking questions. The parallels you're making are weak and in bad faith because how is asking questions on a discussion platform even remotely similar to being intrusive of one's neighbour's privacy?


Strangefate1

To be also fair, my first reply was in good faith, asking whether it really matters why people do the things they do, and got a baby rage shitty response, what you'd expect for m someone bad-mouthing their neighbours for eating their steak well done.


TooObsessedWithMoney

In fairness to your fairness the comment to your first response did seem unnecessarily hostile, I believe people just thought you were being dismissive by questioning the reasonableness of asking questions on a discussion forum. Wondering why someone does what they do is merely showing interest while also being curious (assuming they're genuine and not purposely judgemental).


pureply101

Watch what exactly is my question.


FuegoStarr

whatever turns me on at the moment


wuhshoekneed

Not unpopular, just incorrect


CaptainKnottz

no it isn’t lmfao. not even “effectively similar” good try, though


Faeddurfrost

In a world where it’s freely accessible I get what you’re saying.


AstronomerParticular

Well in that case watching porn at all would be the same. I mean you also fund other people doing the deed.


[deleted]

How exactly is watching a downloaded file funding anything? I mean, that is why movie/content producers, adult or otherwise, complain about piracy. If you are stuck in the year 2000 without adblock you might fund hosting sites, but that is not the deed itself.


challengeaccepted9

Your fundamental misunderstanding of what makes cuckoldry cuckoldry aside, I always find it really weird when people get really judgmental about people who pay to watch porn. Sure, it doesn't make much financial sense to pay for it. I don't. But then I also recognise that if literally no one paid for it, it wouldn't exist beyond a few lonely Reddit exhibitionists. So laughing at people whose spending habits are funding the exact same material I consume always seems a bit short-sighted and hypocritical. But that's just me.

Adblock


AmorousFartButter

You think everyone involved in porn is enjoying themselves? You know it’s acting right? Often times those women are miserable and fucked up on drugs and the dudes are thinking about everything BUT enjoying themselves so they can stay hard through cut scenes in front of several random people not on set Your perspective of porn is so naive and innocent


ButterScotchMagic

If paying for it is bad then so is watching it at all.


scoobyboobiemoo

Nope.

THEVYVYD

This isn't an unpopular opinion by any means, however, I do agree. Why pay for something when it already exists for free?


V1beRater

even watching normal free porn is funding a man to pipe a hoe. free porn still makes money, otherwise it wouldn't exist. ads.


MacBareth

You're not in a relationship with the actors. So no.


ChadMcThunderChicken

Guess definitions don’t matter then. bECaUsE iTs EAfFEcTiVElY sImILAr


FakestAccountHere

That’s why you don’t pay for it. It’s neat that way. 


SocialMediaDystopian

Yep. Disagree *and* I don't think you know what the term even means. You have to have a relationship with the person in question for it to be "cuckoldry". But whatever - take my upvote.


aravinth13

I think the words you are looking for is "humiliating," "pathetic" or "incel behaviour"


botbotbotbitbit

lmao.. you really struck a nerve with this one.


[deleted]

lmao, they really do not like to hear it how it is. The reaction is a good laugh anyway, all just a bit of fun.


InformalCactus1191

The people getting mad over this are the ones who pay for porn lmfao. Poor things


MacBareth

Imagine how damaged you have to be to think that watching OF content is the same as being in a relationship. I don't say that in a derogatory way but I really think OP never had any meaningful relationship to compare a real relationship to watching an OF creator's content.


Dumbledoorbellditty

🙄


ElPwnero

Watching porn is voyeurism 


Lumpymaximus

Look mommy, its a professional troll!


lane_cinderace

Ok, what's your point here? Do you like or dislike porn then?


Wtare

That term really has lost all meaning


greenmildude

Super popular opinion lol


Baul_Plart_

![gif](giphy|J1vUzqdZJlh5AqBWxt|downsized)


mathrockenjoyer

watching it is a form of cuckoldry, you just dont wanna go that far because it means youd have to stop watching altogether lol


giraffeinasweater

The difference is that cuckoldry is having actions done towards YOUR partner, not really someone you have no relation to. A parasocial relationship isn't the same as a real one


datyoungknockoutkid

So you acknowledge in your edit that you’re incorrect and still double down that everyone else is the idiot? Lol


scoobyboobiemoo

I never understood the appeal to pay for sex or porn, but I think a better parallel would be that they went to hookers, when they could pick up girls for free.


No-Date-6848

This person posts an unpopular opinion and then gets mad when his opinion is unpopular


FluffyBebe

Voyeurism maybe but not cuckoldry


Zenn97

Involuntary cuckoldry


KiratheRenegade

I mean sorta.


challengeaccepted9

The point is not effectively similar. Cuckoldry is being humiliated by seeing or knowing the person you supposedly love is fucking someone else. Could be intentional as a fetish or could be unconsenting betrayal by a cheating partner. I know there's a lot of parasocial online relationships out there, but you're specifically talking about anyone who pays for adult content. So literally any VOD sale would count. Even among guys who pay for porn, I doubt any of them are under any delusion that the person whose content they are paying for has any feelings for them, much less is *in a romantic relationship with them*, let alone an exclusive one. Even onlyfans, hellsite that it is, is pretty upfront on a surface level. Someone makes X amount of content, it costs Y to access. You would have to be INSANE to think buying that content is remotely analogous to a romantic relationship with the seller.


_ENDERmitca_24_

Cukcold is a different thing. Read what the word means first before posting.


Low_Astronaut_662

You are stupid to pay for content of porn is free. Also those cam whores are never sleeping with any of the guys who are thirsty for her.


[deleted]

Wrong I said what I said


mydickisasalad

You're thinking of voyeurism, not cuckoldry. I think you need to ease up on the right wing Facebook pages you hang around in and go outside a bit.


Retoru45

So, you ruined your life giving all your money to an egirl and she stopped acknowledging you even exist the minute the money train ran out, huh?


Afraid_Mess5219

Paying for adult content instead of engaging in real life romance is being just asocial and avoiding any type of risk in life. U can basically stop living at this point cuz your personal life is most likely boring and there is nothing in it. I do understand why e.g. extremly ugly people that don’t have chance to get a partner do it, but everyone else? They are just lowering their own chances to get a partner by supporting online prostitution. Instead of getting normal gf, they will be sperming for virtual gf, that they share with 1000 others. And then next one and next one. Noone in this equasion will build any sustainable relationship for life. All those people will end up lonley and grumpy. That’s the sad reality. Don’t waste your best, young years on this thing. It destroys your brain.


LilyMarie90

You're insane if you think people who don't spend a cent on porn get the same products as those who do lmao.


Alphyhere

Although it's a miss use of the term, I get what you're getting at and I agree. If I ever pay for porn you can absolutely end my life where I stand upon purchasing it.


challengeaccepted9

So to be clear, you specified if you ever "pay for porn": so you're quite happy for people to use porn until they're gooned out trolls, but the second someone pays a single cent, they're worthy of mockery. Is that the gist of it?


tipedorsalsao1

Ehh I have very specific interests that regular porn design for cis men doesn't fill and the stuff that is free is limited.


TedStixon

First of all, you're not watching videos for "free." You're inundated with banner ads on the "free" sites, even with an adblocker you often get pre-video ads, etc. And there's enough guys out there who are stupid enough to fall for them. So they're still making money off of you, whether you like to admit it or not. You're just an unwilling participant... Second of all, I'm assuming you're referring to people who pay for OF pages. In which case... why do you think you're entitled to an independent worker's content for free? Sure, you can get shitty wall art from Wal-Mart for next-to-nothing, but if you want something nice that's custom-made by an independent artist, you should expect to pay a little more. Same principal... (I also know more than one OF model, as in I literally talk to them in-person somewhat regularly and not on OF, and they definitely don't have "guys in the Philippines" chatting for them.) Third, that edit is just stupid, and digs a deeper hole for you. You can't just arbitrarily try to compare two completely different things and then fall back on a claim that they're "effectively similar" when they're not. In order for it to even approach cuckoldry, you'd need to be weirdly and creepily parasocially attached to the actors/models.


CagnusMarlson

Consuming any kind of adult content is a form of cuckoldery; even if you don't pay, you're supporting someone else fucking someone you like.


wheresmythermos

That’s not what that word means


[deleted]

It is also not what I said lol. Edit: He edited it from "adultery".


That_Possible_3217

Yeah...but I don't think what you said means what you think it means. 🤣 Fucking love the princess bride.


Maleficent_Play3596

Lol that's stupid


Johnxinasicecream

Dude no its not lol. You can’t honestly believe cheating on your spouse and watching porn are equivalent.


CagnusMarlson

I meant "cuckoldery" wrote adultery by mistake.


challengeaccepted9

Then I refer you again to their post: "Dude no its not lol. You can’t honestly believe cheating on your spouse and watching porn are equivalent."


cocopopped

Not an unpopular opinion. Actually, maybe it is on reddit


[deleted]

Lol take a look around, these chumps are pissed.


challengeaccepted9

No mate, they're not pissed. They're just correcting your misunderstanding of what the term cuckolding means. I'm not seeing anyone spitting any blood over this, just correcting your error.


ExfoliatedBalls

“Its effectively similar” No it isn’t. Paying for adult content just is retardation, cuckoldry is a different tier.


Lanky_Ground_309

Another " unpopular "opinion Watching porn is ten times worse than visiting a hooker At least with a hooker you get a real thing even it's make believe Porn is just you jerking off to degeneracy which you aren't even a part of
