Accomplishing change in the institutions that control and manipulate society for their personal benefit has been difficult. Inability to succeed in the endeavor is due to the inability to create the organizations that can effectively oppose the powers that exercise control. This control is maintained by investment.

Why Do Men Watch Porn? A Feminist and Queer Analysis
The dominant neuroscientific discourse on male porn addiction is underpinned by a moral pedagogy that tacitly assumes a normative sexual baseline: that the brain’s reward circuits, genitalia, and arousal systems were designed by evolution for heterosexual intercourse aimed at reproduction, and that any deviation (such as pornography consumption) constitutes a pathological distortion of this natural […]
