Friday hornyposting thread.

I went to the friendly local mall yesterday to buy a bucket hat for my trip to the mountains and it looks like the fashion went full circle. Girls in their late teens now dress like they dressed when I was their age in the early 00's. I couldn't help myself and eyefucked every single one of them as I was walking from shop to shop.

Maybe all these men that suddenly married a much younger woman are victims of cyclical fashion?

"Mom Jeans" seem to have come back in fashion HARD.

But as you note they're often paired with a top that is either barely-there or is designed for maximum emphasis of the body's traits.

Someone reported this:

REDACTED: Creep post sexualising minors.

Really? Are the mods now expected to moderate the male gaze? "Late teens" presumably includes 18 and 19. It seems to me that half the porn industry runs off barely legal teens, which, I am told, are still legal.

Also, for the vast majority of the world (and American states), including Russia where Orthoxerox lives, the point at which one is no longer considered a sexual minor is 16+, which is literally the latter half of the teens.

Pretty sure you meant to write ”does not constitute”.

Yeah. Edited for clarity

Do we really need a complex explanation of why a young woman appears attractive to an aging man?

Maybe I hadn't aged enough, but I didn't notice myself having a reaction like this before. It was more of a cursory "she's young and pretty, but not my thing" thing.

My mid-teens daughter collects shirts from bands like Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance, Panic and Avril, then mutilates them into exposing her midriff and a shoulder. She periodically threatens to revert to her emo phase.

And my paternal instinct is to make a vague threat over the eye-fucking, but my grounds are uncomfortably shakey. I took her to a concert a while back, and while I think I kept my gaze pretty respectful, I was very aware that the actual women (more early 20's than late teens, but still) in the venue were aesthetically delightful. There's something about watching a young woman dressed in the alt style of his youth snarl to her friends that "It's time for BeatDown Slut Metal!" that inspires a man to want to make ruinous decisions. Would that I were 25 again.

Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance, Panic and Avril

Your daughter has fantastic taste in music, but it’s a bit interesting that kids today are still listening to the bands of the previous generation, no?

Maybe there’s something to that whole “death of culture / cultural stasis” idea.

Nah, there's plenty of more modern stuff the kids like too. Every singer at that concert I took her to was under 30. The kids at her school are into country, of all things, but she likes singers like Megan Maroney, who is also late 20's. And then there's the wierd crossover ones, like Yung Gravy, a 20-something white rapper known for sampling old songs.

And that's without even getting into all the limpid, easy listening rap they know will just make me start ranting about DMX.

In my day our rappers were all hardened criminals, I tell you what.

Country has been having a thing recently, it's really just pop music that's rebranded.

Come to the UK, our local rap scene probably samples gunshots from right outside the studio.

Guns in the UK? I thought you weren't allowed even pointy scissors and pocketknives that lock.

The lack of if being allowed only increases the street cred.

When I was a kid in that actual era, I listened to a ton of music from the 80’s and 90’s, as well as contemporary music. I think that’s extremely normal and doesn’t say much about the quality of current music.

I thought baggy masculine clothes were the style for zoomer girls? (I know of a couple irl examples.)

Could be a regional or Blue/Red thing.

Nope, low-rise pants and skimpy tops. If it's a tshirt, it now hugs the body again. No more elder Zoomer bagginess.

Not to get all culture warry, but its really funny that younger girls see how being sexless blobs made their elder zoomer/milleniel sisters 'happy' and decided that being pretty actually might be more fun.

In any case, boo on you all for perving on 3D women. Superior 2D all the way. Mute by default, and now available in near realtime paperdoll.

I can assure you the female desire to be sex objects, display their bodies, and court sexual attention did not begin with younger zoomerettes.

Millennials dressed like literal prostitues when they were young though. 'Sexless blob' came when they got older and could uncharitably be viewed as a cope for aging out of attractiveness (or getting fat).

They still do. Late thirty-somethings are still the skankiest-dressed women around. The girls in their late twenties are blobs, though.

The weather's probably part of the reason. At the moment, I'd probably go out into the street in only my underwear too if it was socially acceptable.

This. Each winter I bemoan the dearth of raw public sexuality at the hands of an oppressive culture. In the summer I celebrate heat's power to exhibit the nubile.

Another advantage to living in the south and being capable of exercising in the apex of the day: the women jogging from 1-3 PM are very serious about being in shape and are shiny from a distance.

It frankly boggles my imagination how skimpy the clothing is around these parts, given how cold it can get. Even more so in Manchester, where every wo-man seeks to expose as much of their chest as feasible. Not that I'm complaining, especially not when I need motivation to go the gym.

I was always shocked when I'd goto Boston in March/April, and coming back from a convention at 1 am we'd pass gaggles of scantily clad women without jackets outside some club while we hustle past in thick winter jackets. Some hoes are just a different breed.

From Ghastly's Ghastly Comic (NSFW):

In Canada winter is the line that separates the real attention whores from the posers!

Now that is a name I haven't heard in a long time. I simply must link this old classic. Dear lord has it really been 19 years. Uncle Ghastly's Ghastly Hubjo - Savior blues.

What is this place?

This website is a place for people who want to move past shady thinking and test their ideas in a court of people who don't all share the same biases. Our goal is to optimize for light, not heat; this is a group effort, and all commentators are asked to do their part.

The weekly Culture War threads host the most controversial topics and are the most visible aspect of The Motte. However, many other topics are appropriate here. We encourage people to post anything related to science, politics, or philosophy; if in doubt, post!

Check out The Vault for an archive of old quality posts. You are encouraged to crosspost these elsewhere.


Why are you called The Motte?

A motte is a stone keep on a raised earthwork common in early medieval fortifications. More pertinently, it's an element in a rhetorical move called a "Motte-and-Bailey", originally identified by philosopher Nicholas Shackel. It describes the tendency in discourse for people to move from a controversial but high value claim to a defensible but less exciting one upon any resistance to the former. He likens this to the medieval fortification, where a desirable land (the bailey) is abandoned when in danger for the more easily defended motte. In Shackel's words, "The Motte represents the defensible but undesired propositions to which one retreats when hard pressed."

On The Motte, always attempt to remain inside your defensible territory, even if you are not being pressed.


New post guidelines

If you're posting something that isn't related to the culture war, we encourage you to post a thread for it. A submission statement is highly appreciated, but isn't necessary for text posts or links to largely-text posts such as blogs or news articles; if we're unsure of the value of your post, we might remove it until you add a submission statement. A submission statement is required for non-text sources (videos, podcasts, images).

Culture war posts go in the culture war thread; all links must either include a submission statement or significant commentary. Bare links without those will be removed.

If in doubt, please post it!
