The idea that it’s “immoral” to have sex for pleasure is directly related to making sure poor people stay in their place.
People from all socioeconomic backgrounds bang for fun — it’s true!
But historically, it’s the rich who could afford discreet adoptions, for example.

It’s the same with abortions.
You think if we ban abortions today, the rich won’t find ways to make sure their precious daughters can fix a whoopsie? Lmao, don’t be an idiot
No, the idea of “punishment” for sex is for poor women to bear, almost always.

This is why people speak in terms of “keep your legs closed” or “if you didn’t keep your legs closed and decide to abort, you’re a murderous whore!”
None of that rhetoric is aimed at the wealthy. They can afford privacy and discretion.
i.e They can afford dignity.

Banging for fun and pleasure is a very basic, very human thing to do
Some people don’t like to admit that they do it, because their God is supposed to mind it terribly — but still.
We’ve just devised ways to shame people for it, because we have to find ways to control them.

We also conflate fun and pleasure with hedonism and “animalistic urges” and sexual violence and so on — because the idea of poor people owning their bodies is scary.
When most people, the majority, just long for human connection.
And we tell them that this is disgusting.

So the next time you wipe the Doritos dust off of your stubby fingers and type “close your legs” to a random woman on Twitter
Just remember, you’re doing this because you’re part of a frankly sad, systemic campaign
Meant to convince people they shouldn’t own their bodies.

Straight up — I’m a private school kid
We lived in a conservative Southern society, obsessed with an outwardly “moral” and “righteous” lifestyle
The reality? Most of my classmates were sexually active. Nobody faced any consequences. Indiscretions were kept quiet.

Every time I watch a bunch of you panting at some rich white Republican who talks about how “godly” abstinence is, I LAUGH
They are lying too you, gleefully and unrepentantly, and you’re just so, so desperate to believe them
Stop it. Get real. Teach safe sex. Thank you.
