Indeed, this notion of "men are anti-porn" seems very antithetical to my lived experience.

"Men" as such are never anti- or pro- anything.

There's endless lines of division among "men". Some men want to keep the "flow" of sex under control and don't like when sex is "handed out" too easily to men they don't see as worthy.

Some other men like the deal if they operate the business like a pimp or porn producer.

Consumer men may like it because they feel they can't satisfy their urges in other ways or they don't feel like the "real deal" is worth the effort and risk in comparison to these substitutes.

There are also men who just cheer on the empowered self-actualizing women to do what they desire to express their sexuality freely.

"Men" includes Rocco Siffredi, your local pastor, the loser nerdy virgin, the strict traditional father figure, a Christian wait-until-marriage boy, the nofap evangelist, etc. etc.

Right, I just have a disagreement with the notion the article peddles that women are somehow better, that this is a "man issue."
