- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen

It was used as a method to promote awareness but that wasn't the original intent. It was just simply a joke that got insanely out of hand. The Chastity thing you're talking about is actually an October thing called Locktober. Some people do carry over into November but the kink community in general uses October.
Yeah. I might not be into the kink but, I can respect that people are doing Locktober for safe, sane, and consentual pleasure-related reasons. NNN was a joke originally (like the "fap roulette" challenges of yore) but definitely subverted for some pretty nefarious reasons, using shame and sexual frustration to try to radicalize people into right-wing misogyny and violence.
It's really fucking weird.
Yep. I've not known anyone, myself included, to do Locktober for some awful reasons. No Nut November just got out of hand and next thing you know you have extremist figures going mental.
