    It seems obvious to me now.

    Many US states are now requiring age verification for adult sites. VPN companies will benefit if that requirement expands. The Republican party’s pearl-clutching politics are what can make that happen.

        There’s a lot of benefits that come with gay sex being something you get socially ostracized or legally prosecuted for.

        You get to have all the gay sex you want with the reassuring knowledge that it will be kept completely secret by your partners.

            Is what i am saying untrue? If gay sex is something you’ll get in trouble for, then your secrecy is assured. It’s only when LGBTQ acceptance became a thing that all those gay republicans got exposed.

            Same logic can be applied to sexual attitudes towards women in the 18th, 19th, and early 20th. If having sex out of wedlock destroys that woman’s reputation, then I can have sex with all the women I want and they have to keep it a secret or they’ll be forced into prostitution.
