If humanity suddenly vanished and all that would be left of our existence is all the videos ever filmed. How much of that would be porn? What would other civilizations think of us? Fucking perverts, aren’t we?

Porn is great. We are sexual beings. Your shame is unwarranted.
Also what makes you think aliens aren’t interested in our fertility rituals. As captain kirk taught us, knocking boots with aliens is awesome.
I hope they are on their way to us now for an interstellar booty call. Better yet, I hope they are covertly here now on a genetic exchange program.
Edit: You know all those weird sex ads in the back pages of alternative magazines. Aliens among us maybe??
Edit 2: To the people downviting this, this is exactly why you don’t get invited to better parties - Including alien sexy parties.
Found Riker’s account.
Pretty sure Picard (and possibly Data) got more than Riker did. Especially post-beard.
Dear aliens hiding amongst us: …Hey.
No one:
Lemmy users: How can I mention Linux or Star Trek?
Funny, but wholesome…
No one nothing?
…and porn.
Porn and sex work itself aren’t bad, and are natural extensions of our human condition.
The shameful parts are the people who create sex trafficking rings, child/incest porn, and porn that imitates child/incest porn. There’s probably more shameful uses of porn, as we are also a degenerate society in a lot of respects.
Or just all of the other cases of the porn industry hurting people (especially women)
Very valid.
I’m not reading this as OP shaming porn. The “fucking perverts, aren’t we?” reads (to me) as them lumping themselves in with the rest of us.
Yes, we’re indeed fucking perverts, and it’s fucking great!
Yes, I am definitely in that group. I watch porn. I just had this realisation of how much porn there is to choose from vs how much choice there is on Netflix. And all that porn is basically free.
Perhaps. But the assumption that Aliens would find us perverted implies that this attitude is the normal one when prudism is the freakshow. Every media technology from cave painting to the internet and everything in between has been co-opted if not dominated by porn.
I mean if you look at ALL the species that have ever lived on earth in the history of earth, how many had the same sexual drive as humans? That would be in the 0.xxxxx percentage.
If you want to use logic, it would be logical to assume that chances are that aliens ARE NOT as sexually driven as us and that this is NOT a common behaviour.
Bonobos:
I think any assumption of Aliens would be a mistake.
You made an assumption and so did I. I just based my assumption on what we know about life on earth and you made it based on star trek.
I made a shitpost based on star trek for a laugh.
If we compare humanity to other species on earth, the year-round horniness without any specific mating seasons is fairly uncommon. There’s not really a good reason to assume that a sentient alien species works the same way.
Maybe my aspirational alien sex party is an unintentional horror show where they want to have sex with us via cellular absorption and DNA fusion followed by a binary fision phase resulting in hybridization of both partners then cloning of the hybrids into an unknown number of offspring.
New kink unlocked. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
True. There is amazing diversity with and amongst species.
The species as a whole is sexual; individuals probably are, but sometimes not.
Sorry, just wanted to leave a little space for asexual people like me.
Groovy baby!
