I have been curious about this for awhile. What's the motivation behind posting porn to sites like phuks, voat and Reddit? Is there sexual gratification to it? Does the poster get aroused from knowing people might be masterbating to their post? Is it to bookmark your favorite porn? With so much porn available for free across the internet why share it?

I have wondered about this.
Same questions, no real answers.

As a thought exorcise I thought about non-sexual things people like to watch, and if they share them. Cars, sports, movies, etc.
So sharing things we like to watch with strangers isn't odd.. unless it's porn?
But if I extend that thinking, If we thought about sex in a comparable way to cars.. well, people like to show off the car. Might even let his friend take it for a drive.
Probably wouldn't do that with a wife.

So, in then end, I've got nothing. I might know less now than when I started thinking about it.

I'm very curious about users who don't use an alt to post porn. Of course this was mostly on voat, phuks doesn't seem to have porn. I'd get really thrown off by users that posted science articles and then five minutes later it's a NSFW gif.

I know the majority of people look at porn and I'm not against porn, I just never understood sharing porn with friends. I really have no desire to know what turns my friends on or for them to know what gets me off.
