[Added by mods- Content Warning: Sensitive Topic] What do you think about pornography from Autistic perspective?

ComputerGeek1337

Not meaning to cause division, but really very genuinely interest in what you think about the subject, particularly as many here we no doubt struggle with real world intimacy and romantic relationships?

1. Perhaps OK one in a while? Much like a cigarette, cigar or watching Fast and Furious movies, its acted, and a bit of escapism. 

2. Generally fine, if its not interfering with real life friendships, dating, work and daily life?

3. Generally no, as the pornography industry is deeply harmful to women and portray a realistic nor healthy depiction of intimacy?  

4. Its the closet I'll ever get to real world intimacy, so I can't get enough

  • I'm not sure about the question. Why should it be any different from an autistic perspective?

    Porn is fundamentally about the mechanical act, not about social interaction, communication, emotions, etc. so why would there be a difference?

    It largely appeals to the male bias for optical stimulation, rather than emotional or sensual stimulation.

    It is undeniably arousing, but then it is intended to be.

    For the avoidance of doubt, it should only be between informed consenting adults, doing it of their own free will without undue pressure. In practice I am not sure it all is.

    Whether it is good or bad for the participants, viewers, society etc. is a nuanced and sizeable debate.

    I was always interested in what the women really thought and were like in real life to talk to. I saw an interesting video from an autistic Australian escort/prostitute. Self employed, who viewed it purely as a business.

    Sexuality in general is a confusing topic shaped by many things. I can't separate the emotional and physical parts
