It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

There's a docu called, "communists have better sex", that talks about how in east germany, even though sex was less talked about in the media, and pornography was strictly banned (unlike in west germany, which created a booming porn industry), ppl generally had more sex in the east, women initiated more divorces, and had much richer sex lives.

There's also a lot of statistical trends about how ppl nowadays are having A LOT less sex than they did when they first started doing sex research in the 50s I think.

It has nothing to do with generational puritanical attitudes, or how much sex is represented in the public sphere, and more to do with late stage capitalism removing all our public/community spaces, and encouraging ppl to stay in our little cages at home, venturing out only as a consumer.
