This is a good bit.
Men liking pictures of beautiful women is not weird. I think it’s weirder that our economic system incentivizes selling empty sexuality and even emptier engagement from consumers of it.
“…because I objectify young women and I like it.”
How is this downvoted? Dude literally admits to creeping on women’s profiles so he can ogle their photos. How is he any different from old school weirdos who would whack it to Sports Illustrated?
This isn’t someone admitting to enjoying porn (which is still a problematic industry in itself but that’s another, more complex, issue). It is someone admitting to looking at regular photos on women’s profiles and fantasizing about their tits.
That’s textbook objectification of women.
How fucking dare that creepy disgusting old man look at pictures of young, beautiful women on a platform where they’re posting pictures of themselves! This isn’t what the internet is meant for, how dare he!
Hmm
Cause God forbid we expect men to not by misogynist perverts. Women should just cover head to toe and never show themselves in public because “consequences”, yea?
Nah fuck that victim blaming mentality. Women should be able to post pictures of themselves online without worrying about perverts objectifying them.
Men need to learn to be better and held accountable for their shitty behavior.
There’s got to be some kind of line between “objectifying young women” and “horny”.
Let people like what they like, whether it’s looking at girls online, cosplay, sports, or being an insufferable cunt on social media.
🇲🇦‼️ Older men following young women
✅👌 On instagram
Guess I’m the only one who read her post and thought the wives were the ones following the young Women.
That’s a perfectly legitimate way to interpret the text, and might even be true.
You’re not. But the author of the sentence is not necessarily a contender for Grammarian of the Year.
Yeah it’s a poorly constructed sentence isn’t it
They mostly are.

Fart monster two k telling it like it is
To Dr. Iver Mectin
Boobs.
I don’t really see how wives following a bunch of young women is weird, they often socialize quite a bit with each other.
Seems less weird when you put it that way
Same answer for why dudes constantly channel flip… looking for boobs.
And why soo many YouTube, Netflix and Amazon prime thumbnails have boobs.
The maddest of lads
I’m not an old dude, but I mean these women need that crowd to make money. It’s weird calling them creeps but at the same time they are posting nearly nude photos of themselves publicly on social media. Who do they think is following that content? Physicists at CERN calculating the new gravitation force off of your oversized diaper butt BBL? medical doctors determining the tolerance a 115lb woman with 1000cc of silicone can tolerate? Get real, you’re posting your tits because you know exactly those types of dudes will follow and you can either trick them into giving you money for feet pics or buying you a weekend in Dubai.
These 22 year old “model influencers” will be begging for these old dudes to pay them attention when they hit the wall in 5 years.
If I were to do that, I’d probably do it for the money. I would get unfaithful followers (hard to pinpoint who because open relationships and other types of relationships exist, but statistically, there would be), and that wouldn’t make it any less uncomfortable. I personally hate unfaithful/dishonest partners.
Men looking at boobs doesn’t make them unfaithful.
Depends on your relationship
I’m around plenty of people of all ages and count people in every decade of their life as my friends, and frequently am around women in their mid twenties. I went for dinner with 3, plus other mixed company, on Sunday. One mentioned they were 27, I dont know about the others - I can tell you confidently that they in no way care what 40 year old men (of which I am one) think of their attractiveness and I would endanger my friendship and appear like a creep to even ask. What you’re talking about doesn’t actually exist in the real world.
The post wasn’t about ordinary women going through their lives in healthy ways. It was about young women influencers and the old men who follow them. The reason why is obvious.
I can’t find where she called them creeps but I think her issue is that they are married.
I dont think they generally deny what you are saying
C’mon, bro, be better than that.
You may not be an old dude, but it sure seems like you already hit the wall.
Friend of mine’s father, who was seventy at the time, got hit on by an older lady at the grocery store.
Lamenting that he didn’t follow it up with her, “she was eighty, but a young eighty, if you know what I mean”
Wall? Gtfo, dumbass
I think you may have misunderstood.
If you’re a 22yo “influencer” and your target market is people who follow 22yo influencers then it will be difficult to generate engagement when you’re 27.
That doesn’t seem that controversial to me, and I don’t see how octogenarians getting laid at the supermarket is relevant?
Yea, those busted 27 year olds. Wtf
I will say that by 27 creepy old men did stop yelling their attraction at me as I walked down the street, which was nice
Are you sure it was because of your age or was it in respect to your Rank? Unless you were still a Lt. Lezbian at the time. Here’s hoping Major is soon!
They certainly were particularly vocal back when I was an ensign
If you’re navy captain lezbian I sure hope major is not in your future. Cheers to future admiralty!
It’s what Decaprio does so…
Dicaprio hasn’t been a role model for me since I saw him in basketball diaries and spent the next few years trying to be just like Jim Carroll. Never again Leo. Never again.
Did you go around telling Reggie to put it away?
Yeah, they kind of had a point until they busted out the incel-speak at the end.
At they end? The whole thing is toxic incel red-pilled hate speech.
Is an incel someone who doesn’t white knight for women who couldn’t care less about their own existence? It’s gotten to the point where incel just means “a guy who believes men and women should be equal”. Yeah, I was exaggerating when I was saying 27 but there are tons of women online regretting not taking relationships more seriously when they were in their 30’s.
If men only date women below 30 (or 27 apparently??) for their youthful appearance, what incentive do those women have to take dating seriously? Those men won’t stay anyway. This is the main contradiction in incel rhetoric. If you don’t like to look at women past 30, women shouldn’t date you “seriously “ while in their 20s.
Lingua franca dude. I’ve never heard “hit the wall” used outside the man-o-sphere. Maybe not exclusively incel, but incel adjacent at least.
It’s gotten to the point where incel just means “a guy who believes men and women should be equal”.
No, that’s not even remotely true, and it’s not what your previous comment was saying either.
Incels are essentially misogynists with a sexual fixation. Like classical misogynists tend to be more occupied with women having jobs or holding positions of power, while incels tend to be more upset about women’s sexual habits, but both are preoccupied with hating on women they deem to be misbehaving.
I think the part of your previous comment that gave the most ‘incel vibes’ was the bit about women begging for attention after ‘hitting the wall’ in their 20s. Maybe you intended it as a comment on women who regretted not taking relationships more seriously in their 30s, but it came off as a sort of fantasy where the women who transgressed your model of how ladies should act get their just desserts.
It’s become a generic insult like re*d or faot was. Or still is for some people. Probably the same crowd. Saying that creepy old dudes are generally mainly interested in younger women and would lose interest as they get older is kinda the point of why they’re creepy old dudes. Not an incel thing to say, just how creepy old dudes work.
Apparently have insulted a lot of creepy old dudes
That “hit the wall” stuff is always hilariously transparent. It’s a self-soothe. “She won’t be worth it in a few years anyway so you’re missing out.”
I’m 38 and the wall where I stop getting unwanted attention sure never seems to come. Which is disappointing. I’m really looking forward to my crone era.
I have written this before, but I don’t think it actually stops. I do not think it’s even about looks really. Or at least I’m over 50 and still getting catcalled on my way to work. Fully expect to be 90 and have some kid yell “Lookin’ spry, grandma!” at me from a moving car.
So the moral of the story is that boobies are good even after they turn 27?
Have you started collecting toadstool and eye of newt? How is your mad cackle coming along? Are you behind on setting up your 401crone?
The ones using the wall thing can’t even tell how old a woman is anyways. I got told I’ll hit the wall once I reach 26 and then I will have regrets. I was already well into my 30s at that time.
Your comment very much reminds me of an episode of 30 Rock in which Liz Lemon starts dressing like an old crone and acting crazy on the subway to secure a place to sit.
I may need to watch this show.
Highly recommend it, Tina Fey is an icon. Just beware that you’ll be quoting her character more often than you’ll notice yourself.
these dudes aren’t weird, they’re sadly very common
Do you think most of these young women wish that these older men would stop following them?
how can i know, im not them
You almost had it
This is what peak mansplaining looks like. She didn’t ask a question and I’m almost sure she already knows the why.
wow way to mansplain the tweet to all of us who just read it
Yw
This is what peak mansplaining looks like
Is this just a new form of “Who asked?”? I mean, people can still speak out their opinions even if no one asked
Splainmaxxing
Lmfaoooo the edit with a meme pandering to himself
Heyyy
Heterosexual men want to look at boobs. If she thinks this is “weird,” I feel she needs something explained to her.
So do yourself and FartMonster2k not know about PornHub, or…?
An older adult following a bunch of much younger people on normal social media for sexual purposes is 100% weird.
At one point, if you explicitly put your body on social media, multiple time, on multiple platforms, that’s kind of the expected behaviour no?
Sometimes, i wanna watch porn and sometimes I want to look at women that I find attractive. Does that mean that I have to exclusively watch someone my age?
I much prefer looking at women my age, but let’s be real, the older I get, the less I see them on social media.
How old do you think the women on pornhub are? What makes them more acceptable to look at over the women on instagram? I mean if we’re talking about dudes perving on private social media accounts of 15 year olds, yeah of course that’s fucked up. But that isn’t at all the implication I got here, rather I assumed he’s talking about OnlyFans models and other young women (not girls) who are offering their looks as a product, like Yellz0 or Kaitlyn Krems. In that case, this is extremely normal, and not really any different than the nearly 100 years of Hollywood; or did you assume the beautiful young starlets were only meant to appeal to their age peers (despite being cast and promoted by primarily older men)?
Hollywood, magazines, art, sales catalogues, and pornography; they are all selling the sexual appeal of young adulthood. And so long as the men and women being gazed at are willingly and consensually offering the display of their body, and they’re of legal and intellectual ability to consent, then nobody is being wronged here, and nobody is behaving abnormally. These women deserve respect (as do the women on pornhub, to be clear; I’m still trying to understand what separates the two entities to you), and stepping over established boundaries, personal or social, is not okay obviously, but assuming the caveats I’ve outlined, I see nothing disrespectful about buying what somebody is willfully selling.
As for the age gap… look, we can pretend to be this perfectly evolved species of always equitable and simple moral choices while ignoring literally the whole of human history which heavily implies an attraction in humans to young adulthood that doesn’t seem to wean with age, or we can accept reality for what it is, warts and all. Personally for me, I just don’t see how infantilizing young adults as if they are helpless children in need of constant coddling and viewing every relationship as an inherent competition of power and experience where any imbalance implies irreconcilable differences benefits us as a society.
I appreciate you bestie but I ain’t reading all that
Okay, I’ll try to make it more appropriate for you. Ahem:
Why woman sell sex on pornhub okay, but women sell sex on instagram bad?
Also human think young adult sexy. Always, but also now.
You assume they’re following sex workers on instagram. Nowhere in post it say that. Plenty of weird dudes out there
Yellz0 and Kaitlyn Krems are not “sex workers,” unless you expand the term so broadly so as to include anyone offering titillating, at which point every model and most actors would fall under it as well.
So no, I am specifically not assuming they follow sex workers, I am assuming they follow people who offer titillating content, as expressed.
Young adult women who post thirst traps are looking to be looked at. Especially if they aren’t on a private profile.
It’s normal for men of all ages to look at women who consent with open permissions.
Not op, but imma be honest with you, I’m currently drunk at an airport bar and I appreciate the absolute fuck out of this tldr
I appreciate you, my drunk friend.
So an older adult following a bunch of younger people on a porn site is ok?
If someone is looking to do that for sexual purposes then yes that is the appropriate place to do it
You have a strange moral stance where looking at still pictures of boobs is terrible but watching porm is fine. Where do you stand on looking at fully clothed women?!
You think consent is strange?
Don’t people consent to other people looking at their pictures when they post them publicly online?
on normal social media
Probably right…
Looks like this was posted on eX-Twitter though! :)
It’s nice to have options.
