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?

Very good question, with no real answer, I think. I've been around long enough to remember the days when a poor young boy had to work to see even a brief glimpse of anything porn ... now ir's everywhere. I don't think it's made for a better world. In fact there's much to be said for the 'mystery'.

It seems it's a younger posters thing to post porn. The ones who didn't live through the 'mystery' days.

And they end up with very unreal ... unobtainable fantasies of what life, sex, expectations, whatever are all about. Like I said, I'm not sure it has enhanced society in any way, and though it's impossible to put the genie back in the bottle, it's not a good thing. To me it just jades those who can't look away from any of this crap and need to spread it around. It's likely why many will always be lonely basement dwellers, never grasping that the world isn't what they see in glossy pictures ... and never will be.

Completely agree. To have access to such extreme examples of sex at such a young age must have huge impacts on later adult years. This goes for both males and females. It's a very different world we live in and it's only been about 15 years with this kind of porn access.
