    I mean yeah, but the whole “as long as it’s consensual adults it’s beyond any criticism” thing is some libertarian bullshit. Society compels people to “consensually” decide to do things that make them fucking miserable all the time. The idea we should never ask “why” is lib shit.

      I presume they're talking about sex, not a self-immolation suicide pact in front of unsuspecting people

        In that circumstance the unsuspecting people aren’t really consenting are they.

        People should have the right to choose, but people also often end up choosing things that make them downright miserable. I know I have. There’s plenty of feminist media (both serious and comical) about how totally consensual sex can leave people still feeling like shit afterwards. You can recognize this without advocating for some kind of behavior gestapo to go around making sure everyone does what’s scientifically best for them.

        Honestly what I’m really saying it, I don’t think most people want pure unadulterated “freedom”, most people also want resources to make sure they use that freedom effectively. There’s a reason rich people spend tons of money on therapists, life coaches and personal trainers. A lot of people given the ability to do anything without any guidance will either become aimless or reckless. Speaking as someone to regrets a lot of bad choices and wasted time in my younger years, I often wish I had been born into a society that did a better job of “nudging” me in the right direction, just not with the barrel of a gun mind you.

      beyond criticism? no, some bedroom stuff can and should be critically analysed. but telling people how to do sex? not really, you do you. if you can stomach it after we scientifically prove all your kinks are problematic

        I mean tweet isn’t really telling anyone to do anything either. Even if it was, nobody can really make you do shit via the Internet.

      Of course you can ask "Why", but in practice I've only ever seen that kind of attitude be used to justify "your kinks are terrible, you're brainwashed, you're a broken person, you need therapy, you think you want this but you don't" kind of grandstanding.

        I mean you’re right. It often does just become a “woke” avenue for shaming which I don’t really think is helpful even if the behavior is truly unhealthy.

          Not trying to bait, and I understand if you don't want to share. But what would you consider "truly unhealthy" behaviors?

          Me, at least off the top of my head, I would definitely count fin-dom in there.
