China banning porn is like the single issue thing I don’t agree with the CPC on, but from what I gather it’s super easy to use a vpn in country and sidestep the firewall so it’s really whatever.
idk i haven’t read my kollontai yet but i kinda think the first act of a proletarian government should be to ban sex work. obviously if you’re making sex tapes not for survival it’s a little different but
There’s actually a really funny loophole/phenomena where China bans all outright sexual pornography, but it doesn’t ban the adjacent non sexual bondage erotica type videos and photos. So you can find videos of a “relationship drama where a woman is kidnapped by another woman and menaced” type thing that is super horny but never sexual. Then a funny subset is there are people who dress up as the police or PLA etc and do horny trials of spies/corrupt official etc. They pretend it’s a morality type play, but it’s just entirely horny. Then photos of these hit the Western internent and they get presented as proof of China’s secret purges. When it’s just a bunch of horny larpers and BDSM nerds.
That’s my point exactly. They have a blanket ban which makes much more sense than kink policing.
Although to be honest, I’m no expert on the Chinese legal code so I don’t want to make too many comments on their approach. I’ve seen much conflicting information.
To be fair, China bangs all pornography

there’s also drugs for fun, but in both cases it’s fairly understandable why they arrived at their prohibitions. it isn’t religious moralizing.
there are also… creative sidesteps ive seen in some chinese works
I’ve never seen actual porn from China and now I’m curious.
im moreso talking about yuri stuff like GTB and please bully me miss villainess.
great taste btw
A comment above I made added some context

If Sigmund Freud were alive in 2025 he would love glide typing
