Summary
In this episode, we talk about the science behind why disgust is the most arousing thing in the world, and why it's only found in gay males and females. We also talk about why porn is so arousing and why we should all be obsessed with it.

00:00:00.000
The Kinsey spectrum is just completely nonsense.
00:00:02.500
It is a really bad mechanism for understanding arousal patterns.
00:00:05.700
The way arousal patterns should really be thought of is as individual arousal to disgust
00:00:13.700
spectrums for specific visual, auditory, or conceptual stimuli.
00:00:23.540
But if you think about it, what happens when you're aroused by something?
00:00:33.020
What happens when you're disgusted by something?
00:00:38.900
These sound like exactly mirroring reactions, almost as if they're the same system with a
00:00:46.580
And then when we started mapping from our data all of the arousal and disgust things that
00:00:51.940
people have, what we realized pretty quickly is something you would find is anything that
00:00:58.100
disgusted a portion of the population would arouse a corresponding smaller portion of the
00:01:04.660
So what it seems we have here is that some part of the developmental life cycle, and this
00:01:19.040
And this is where another interesting thing happens that you regularly see in gay males, which you
00:01:24.900
don't see as much in gay females, and is a very interesting thing to explore and was one of our sort of
00:01:30.540
hints in this, is in gay males, you will often hear active disgust towards certain female visual
00:01:39.600
stimuli or physical or conceptual stimuli that we associate with women.
00:01:46.680
Why would they begin to develop disgust around that when you don't see that in lesbian communities?
00:01:51.520
So what our data actually showed is if you look at men, like anyone would expect, the predominantly
00:01:57.500
arousing thing is the naked form of either males or females.
00:02:03.820
But if you look at females, what we actually found is that is not the most arousing thing.
00:02:09.160
It's a close second, but it's not the most arousing thing.
00:02:12.600
The most arousing thing was submission or dominance.
00:02:15.940
And so what we pointed out there is even the concept of gay or straight, even the concept
00:02:20.260
that our sexualities should be primarily defined by male or female predominant attraction is
00:02:29.980
Because had women invented the field of sexuality research, they likely would have defined our
00:02:37.080
sexuality as being predominantly dominance or submission based instead of male or female
00:02:43.820
And that the only reason why this wasn't caught earlier is because the field is so dominated
00:02:48.540
by identity politics that people can't say, well, let's pretend like gay straight is just
00:02:52.900
like not an important dichotomy and look at just like the data.
00:02:57.500
Like what are the core things that are arousing different populations?
00:03:07.160
Should I share one of my dirty little secrets with our followers?
00:03:12.060
I think they find it a very fun and weird hobby to have.
00:03:17.880
So whereas other people like research World War II history or learn how to knit, collect
00:03:22.840
Barbies, I like to explore NSFW subreddits and try to figure out why exactly weird things
00:03:30.760
seem to arouse people because I really don't get it.
00:03:37.900
I feel like I'm an alien exploring another planet and it's amazing.
00:03:43.400
And I thought I thought I'd seen every subreddit that it was NSFW.
00:03:47.260
I thought I knew everything, even the really weird things like Sharpies and anuses.
00:03:52.460
And then I'm at this one late night dinner and, and someone brings up gone wild audio.
00:03:58.140
And I guess I never checked it out as a subreddit and NSFW subreddit.
00:04:04.420
It just sounds like, I don't know, people telling sexy stories.
00:04:09.660
Not going to, and like, who wants to like sit down and listen to something, you know,
00:04:12.700
when, when, you know, you're like idly exploring stuff online.
00:04:15.560
And so it, it just said like, this person was like, yeah, gone wild audio.
00:04:21.580
Like I discovered I could orgasm without, without anything or anyone touching me, uh,
00:04:32.440
So immediately I go, I go and I, I, I like dive down this rabbit hole and I am, my mind
00:04:40.600
is blown because it is, it's like taking a theme park ride, you know, those haunted house
00:04:46.480
rides where you're like on a little track and you're like going to a haunted house and
00:04:53.260
You're like putting yourself into the body of someone who's having some kind of arousing
00:04:59.100
experience, but these aren't the experiences you would think necessarily.
00:05:02.860
So like, obviously the really popular recordings that have gotten the most upvotes in all time
00:05:07.160
and stuff, cause the great way of exploring, you know, weird things on NSFW is to both
00:05:12.520
see like, what is the most popular and what gets the most votes for all time, but also
00:05:17.300
like what's trending, like what weird niche things are, what's controversial.
00:05:20.260
So obviously like the vanilla ones are, you know, typically very like mainstream kind of
00:05:25.900
vanilla plots, but like the weird ones are like, you are being assimilated into the Borg
00:05:33.220
and like, you know, you're listening to this audio clip and like you, the listener are
00:05:38.120
like going in some, into some kind of machine and it's like, beep, boop, beep, boop.
00:05:44.100
And it's just, it's just like, what is happening to me?
00:05:49.920
I, but I went deep cause there are all these different tags.
00:05:52.360
Like you can look, you in, in gone wild audio, you can do M4F, F4M, M4A.
00:05:58.680
So you're getting a male voice for all audiences, a female voice for male, et cetera.
00:06:02.640
So like, they have, of course, like lots of tags, like rape, non-consent, incest, like
00:06:11.240
There was, there was a recently like a Boba Fett sort of themed one.
00:06:20.460
Somebody is like, oh, you guys should do an episode that's like just on fetishes people
00:06:24.640
And the reason why we wrote a book on sexuality, the Fragmentist Guide to Sexuality, the reason
00:06:30.100
why we're so interested in fetishes more generally, especially fetishes that are unmoored from
00:06:36.640
So one is, is, you know, audio, but then another you can look at as like hentai sites and stuff
00:06:42.940
And in both of these instances, what you're looking at is turn ons for people that are
00:06:53.660
And when you see something that is very odd happening across populations, especially
00:07:00.780
across cultures, and then especially if you see it happening over and over again, historically,
00:07:06.300
which is really interesting, what you're seeing there is something like an evolutionary scar
00:07:13.560
By that, what I mean is at some point there was some really weird evolutionary pressure
00:07:19.260
or evolution was using our psychological systems in an odd way that reveals deeper and truer
00:07:27.960
underpinnings about how our brain is programmed.
00:07:32.640
So you look across cultures, you look across websites, you will see vore, which is often talked
00:07:37.120
about online, like somebody eating somebody else or like something eating something else.
00:07:44.100
This is like a persistently common fetish that like has nothing to do with breeding.
00:07:50.620
And yet in the US, if you look at our survey on this, and you can contrast those other surveys,
00:07:55.420
so the numbers are about equal, it looks like the number of people who are into this is larger
00:07:59.520
than the number of people who live in the state of Massachusetts, which is like, I forgot,
00:08:03.500
like the fourth most populated state or something.
00:08:05.440
And also, I don't think it's a new thing, because in the movie Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
00:08:11.900
with Marilyn Monroe, there's this one scene in which Marilyn Monroe describes a somewhat
00:08:16.820
sexy encounter she has with the owner of a diamond mine, where he was pretending to be
00:08:22.040
a python and she was pretending to be the goat.
00:08:34.140
Oh, yeah, way pre-internet, way pre like any sort of mainstream.
00:08:38.720
No, wait, another interesting thing is people often think of as like hentai being a modern
00:08:42.720
But if you look at Tijuana Bibles or Tilly Mac books, these were common in like the 1920s
00:08:48.180
and they were sold under the table at newspaper stands and like some other types of places.
00:08:52.820
And they would have like Betty Boop porn and they'd have-
00:09:01.580
And I would actually bet if you go back historically to like ancient Greek times, you probably would
00:09:09.860
You can even see political cartoons really early and I'm sure even earlier, but around
00:09:14.060
the French Revolution where they have illustrations of like Marie Antoinette and her primary ladies
00:09:21.100
Obviously some of that was political commentary and slander, but a lot of it was also like,
00:09:27.140
and these are women doing sexy things and people enjoy looking at images of that, you know?
00:09:33.500
So I think that a lot of people view, you know, a lot of our weird stuff today as being like
00:09:40.700
Oh, another great one was, we have this in our book.
00:09:43.040
Who's the Irish author who was really into fart porn?
00:09:56.040
I gave you a bigger, stronger F than usual fat, dirty farts came sputtering out of your
00:10:02.440
You had an ass full of farts that night, darling, and I F'd them out of you.
00:10:07.100
Big fat fellows, long windy ones, quick little merry cracks, and a lot of tiny little naughty
00:10:17.220
And he just goes on and on, paragraph after paragraph about farts.
00:10:22.600
And this is something that I think today we think of as like a modern degeneracy.
00:10:26.040
And the larger point here, or you look at like BDSM, this used to be called the English
00:10:33.960
And the assumption was that it was caused by school teachers spanking school kids with
00:10:42.120
I hear that passage and all I can think is, here's this woman who really cares about James
00:10:47.920
Joyce or is very incentivized for him to stay with her, who's like, I don't know, he's
00:10:54.580
She's like shoving beans and she's like, okay, how to like, trying to hold it in the
00:10:58.700
right way to give him the right variation of farts.
00:11:00.620
Like, I'm just thinking, how's this woman pulling this off?
00:11:02.740
Because I'm thinking about this, like, clearly elongated lovemaking scene.
00:11:06.060
Isn't that the logistics of how this probably like prostitute keeps him interested?
00:11:10.720
Well, this is honestly like what I think about as I go through like NSFW subreddits.
00:11:16.440
I'm like, wow, like where, where do they get the diapers?
00:11:19.400
You know, like, where, like, where did they source that really weird whip?
00:11:22.200
Like, how are they handling, like, how are they managing their energy over this five hour
00:11:26.460
Like, what kind of antibiotics are they on right now?
00:11:30.000
Like, these are really interesting things to me.
00:11:34.720
So what is probably really going on with all of this?
00:11:38.020
And there were two, you know, one of the first things we really noticed from our book is when
00:11:42.140
we contrasted our research with existing research.
00:11:45.160
One of the things that we added to the research that we were looking at was not just the consumption
00:11:50.860
of drawn pornographic material, but romance novels and fan fiction.
00:11:58.460
All of a sudden, women and men stopped looking as different in the data.
00:12:03.360
Began to see about equal amounts of pornographic consumption in terms of the diversity of the
00:12:11.620
Well, the great thing about that, too, for women, I feel like women just like, one, they're
00:12:16.380
And two, it's totally like, just like, it's not fair how like acceptable their erotic material
00:12:22.860
You know, we're not paying for a very, like a raunchy site subscription as a family.
00:12:28.220
Like, we'll pay for a Netflix subscription and Bridgerton is sitting on that.
00:12:31.160
And it's like, that's totally like, you know, you know, it's...
00:12:33.780
I mean, we live in a world where Fifty Shades of Grey was like the best selling book in the
00:12:49.980
So if you're interested in why women or men like submissiveness, we have covered that in
00:12:55.300
a lot of detail in the interview with Diana Fleischman that we did.
00:12:59.860
But what I want to cover is how human sexuality works more broadly now that we've done this
00:13:06.160
So when we were looking at things, the point I was making on the Vore thing that I wanted
00:13:10.100
to get to is you will see weird turn-ons like that, or like a category of porn where like
00:13:18.620
But then there's other big categories where you will see almost no porn, like people catching
00:13:28.280
Yeah, these are things we have like visceral fears of or emotions around.
00:13:31.880
So like, why are you seeing it in some areas and not others?
00:13:35.160
Because I think some people think either one, this is a new thing, two, this is a thing
00:13:44.900
And three, it's a sign of our current moral degeneracy.
00:13:51.060
But all of these things existed before the internet, or a lot of them existed before the
00:13:56.620
So the first in sort of understanding our arousal spectrum is the Kinsey spectrum is just
00:14:03.220
It is a really bad mechanism for understanding arousal patterns.
00:14:07.060
The way arousal patterns should really be thought of is as individual arousal to disgust
00:14:14.480
spectrums for specific visual, auditory, or conceptual stimuli.
00:14:20.960
So a lot of people may say something like, oh, males are one stimuli.
00:14:25.780
So it's like males to females, how much are you?
00:14:28.700
If you look at straight males, one of the things we found in our survey is like a huge portion
00:14:33.100
of them are turned off by the sight of a vagina, but turned on by the sight of a penis.
00:14:39.920
Yet they are turned on by the concept of a woman, the silhouette of a woman, breasts,
00:14:48.000
So what you're seeing there is, okay, so let's talk about primary and secondary sex characteristics.
00:14:51.740
Primary sex characteristics are really just the stuff you use to reproduce, i.e.
00:14:58.100
Secondary sex characteristics are things that are useful, like after reproductions, it might
00:15:02.580
be a guy being larger, having rougher hands, bigger hands, it's female breasts.
00:15:08.580
These two systems for arousal actually seem disconnected for each other, given how frequently
00:15:13.660
they uncouple in terms of the populations we were looking at.
00:15:17.200
So to even talk about arousal patterns to males, arousal patterns to females is wrong.
00:15:22.240
This is likely why you see things like quote unquote futa porn being so common, because
00:15:27.440
that's appealing to this portion of the otherwise straight male demographic who is interested
00:15:32.040
in this sort of weird combination of parts that you don't see that often in nature.
00:15:37.760
And then you have to get to why that's happening, which we'll get to in a bit.
00:15:41.260
But anyway, so we talk about individual stimuli.
00:15:43.460
Now one could be like the concept of being eaten or the concept of farting or some set of
00:15:49.640
visual stimuli, like a large breasts or something like that, or secondary sex characteristics
00:15:55.340
And then we say these exist on an arousal to disgust metric.
00:16:02.580
But if you think about it, what happens when you're aroused by something?
00:16:11.300
What happens when you're disgusted by something?
00:16:16.800
These sound like exactly mirroring reactions, almost as if they're the same system with a
00:16:24.860
And then when we started mapping from our data, all of the arousal and disgust things that
00:16:30.200
people have, what we realized pretty quickly is something you would find is anything that
00:16:36.360
disgusted a portion of the population would arouse a corresponding smaller portion of the
00:16:42.580
population and anything that aroused a portion of the population would disgust another smaller
00:16:50.860
So what it seems we have here is that some part of the developmental life cycle, and this
00:16:56.020
happens much more in males, this sort of flip sign in the data, something that's supposed
00:17:04.180
So this is why you get like, there's a category of arousal and arousing things called like creepy
00:17:09.760
crawlers where people have like insects poured on them.
00:17:12.280
But then you also have stuff like, you know, feces being poured on someone and stuff like
00:17:18.600
And so what we think is happening there is you have this disgust modifier.
00:17:22.660
And this is where another interesting thing happens that you regularly see in gay males, which
00:17:28.400
you don't see as much in gay females, and is a very interesting thing to explore.
00:17:33.300
It was one of our sort of hints in this is in gay males, you will often hear active disgust
00:17:40.120
towards certain female visual stimuli or physical or conceptual stimuli that we associate with
00:17:50.120
Why would they begin to develop disgust around that when you don't actually see that in lesbian
00:17:56.380
This is something we also don't see in straight female populations.
00:18:00.980
So gay males sexuality does not look like straight female sexuality, but more like a mirror of
00:18:09.020
straight male sexuality, where you also see this disgust reaction, but to male associated stimuli.
00:18:15.240
And what we suspect is going on here is something during the developmental life cycle in males
00:18:21.000
determines their primary gender of attraction and then starts applying negative modifiers
00:18:26.800
But this process is why in males more than females, because there's already this negative modifier
00:18:33.540
What it's actually doing is not applying to negative modifiers to things.
00:18:37.820
It's basically multiplying pathways by a negative one is what you can think of it as.
00:18:43.300
And it will sometimes turn arousal pathways to disgust pathways and sometimes turn disgust
00:18:47.300
pathways to arousal pathways, because you see that phenomenon much more in males and females.
00:18:51.420
So this is just a broad understanding of how we see arousal.
00:18:54.840
Do you want to talk to any of the subjects here, Simone?
00:19:00.080
Like, it's so odd to think that sex is limited.
00:19:03.580
I think one thing that you point out in our sexuality book that is useful for people to think
00:19:07.580
about is that I think men are more likely to be really sensitive to signs of gender.
00:19:15.880
And also men were the original ones doing this sexuality research and doing it from that
00:19:21.740
very male perspective without even thinking that things like romance novels would be considered
00:19:28.100
And that could be one of the reasons why for so many years that was the paradigm for all this
00:19:36.780
So what our data actually showed is if you look at men, like anyone would expect, the
00:19:41.900
predominantly arousing thing is the naked form of either males or females, right?
00:19:49.260
Like that is the normal thing that most arouses males if you look across the population.
00:19:53.660
But if you look at females, what we actually found is that is not the most arousing thing.
00:19:59.140
It's a close second, but it's not the most arousing thing.
00:20:02.460
The most arousing thing was submission or dominance.
00:20:05.840
And so what we pointed out there is even the concept of gay or straight, even the concept
00:20:10.180
that our sexualities should be primarily defined by male or female predominant attraction
00:20:19.900
Because had women invented the field of sexuality research, they likely would have defined our
00:20:27.000
sexuality as being predominantly dominance or submission-based instead of male or female-based.
00:20:33.720
And that the only reason why this wasn't caught earlier, that women focus on that more than they
00:20:38.280
focus on male or female, is because almost all of the early researchers in the space were male,
00:20:45.460
And they were leaving out tons of data sources that would have immediately elucidated this,
00:20:51.360
And I find that really fascinating because I think it shows how nascent the field of research
00:20:57.140
here really is and how much is being ignored because the field is so dominated by identity
00:21:03.900
politics that people can't say, well, let's just throw out all of the identity politics.
00:21:07.900
Like, let's pretend like gay and straight is just like not an important dichotomy and look
00:21:14.040
Like, what are the core things that are arousing different populations?
00:21:16.860
And then you start to be like, oh, so like in women, gender is less important than dominance
00:21:24.760
The reason, of course, being that people began to develop their identities around the rather
00:21:31.420
nascent concepts coming out of the field of sexuality a few decades ago.
00:21:37.140
And now if you update the research, if you update the academic consensus, then you are undermining
00:21:43.880
So you can't really update the consensus in academia anymore.
00:21:48.640
It is permanently canon wherever the field happened to be about 30 years ago.
00:21:55.400
And that is a big reason why the field of sexuality is just so backwards right now.
00:22:00.500
And that the only people really pushing forward sexuality research at the moment are people
00:22:06.000
like Ayla who are outside of the academic bureaucracy.
00:22:09.120
Side note before we go forwards, I realize I should probably explain what the Kinsey scale
00:22:15.320
is before I go on a tirade explaining why it's such a bad scale.
00:22:19.720
It basically posits that human sexuality can be predominantly thought of as existing on
00:22:24.300
a scale from gay to straight or female to male predominant attraction.
00:22:30.120
But even here, so let's talk about like our system versus the Kinsey spectrum, because I
00:22:34.260
think that this is a very useful thing to understand.
00:22:36.080
So if you boil down our system to its simplest level, the way you would think of it as is,
00:22:42.460
and we're using the Kinsey spectrum part of the system, arousal to females to disgust
00:22:49.220
to females, arousal to males to disgust to males.
00:22:51.840
And these are two different stimuli categories that have no tie to each other.
00:22:56.460
So two people could be all the way on arousal to both males and females.
00:23:00.660
Two people could be all the way to disgust on both males and females.
00:23:03.800
And two people could be all the way in the neutral to both males and females, right?
00:23:07.640
And the reason why this system is much more useful is within the Kinsey spectrum, you would
00:23:12.600
literally mark somebody who was exactly equal neutral to males and females, and who was
00:23:17.920
like neutral to males, but far disgust to females at exactly the same part of the spectrum
00:23:23.640
or disgust to females, disgust to males, neutral males, neutral females.
00:23:26.960
All of these people would be in the same part of this, this bar, even though there's their
00:23:31.020
actual sexual representations, they're wildly different.
00:23:36.080
And the other thing it helps elucidate is that disgust, if disgust is an inborn part of
00:23:42.420
our sexuality, if it is something that is large, or so saying sexuality is unchangeable is a
00:23:49.220
You can, you know, in trans people, the predominant gender of attraction changes about 25% of the
00:23:54.960
So like, you can change what turns you on, but you can't change it like intentionally.
00:24:00.720
You can also change like how much you're turned on.
00:24:06.220
Like you can roll for loot, but you don't know exactly what you're going to get.
00:24:11.820
But the point here being is that if the things that are disgust to you don't, are things outside
00:24:20.100
Well, then one of the problems we have is that when we feel this, this feeling of disgust
00:24:25.100
and we don't know why we're feeling it, one of the jumps to that most people have is this
00:24:31.300
And this is something we see, you know, historically.
00:24:33.380
So you look at lepers, like people assume there was something immoral about them because
00:24:38.980
And the disgust was to stay away from this person who might get you a disease, you know, like
00:24:43.940
But this is a big problem for arousal patterns because when we hear people with arousal patterns
00:24:48.960
that cause disgust in us, we often assume that there must be something immoral about
00:24:54.800
And I think that it's very important to distinguish between consenting things happening between
00:25:00.560
adults so that in no way like it hurts their ability to reproduce in anything and things
00:25:05.320
that we should actually see as disgusting because of some sort of moral framework we hold other
00:25:13.160
than the just, this causes disgust in me, therefore it's immoral.
00:25:19.800
And just because something turns you on doesn't mean you think it's moral or good or that
00:25:23.940
you even like it or want it to happen with rape being a really big example that there's
00:25:28.160
a shocking number of people aroused by not, not role play, but real actual rape.
00:25:34.680
But we know this because we ask these questions in a role.
00:25:37.160
We ask rape, role play, and then we ask real rape.
00:25:40.220
And so we got like a huge, we knew this where there was no confusion in the survey, but yeah,
00:25:45.840
but that doesn't mean that they wanted it to happen to them.
00:25:47.880
And I think that's another really important thing.
00:25:50.360
It's not like people who, you know, experience it or people who actually did experience it
00:25:59.420
That doesn't mean that they wanted it or asked for it or ever want it to happen again.
00:26:02.660
So I think it's just really important, but it goes both ways and, you know, in that you
00:26:08.020
may feel this instinctive desire to see someone who is aroused by something that you don't
00:26:13.760
morally accept to be themselves reprehensible, themselves bankrupt when really they have no
00:26:20.240
Just because something turns someone on doesn't mean that they morally condone it.
00:26:24.300
And it also doesn't mean that they want that thing to happen by any stretch of the imagination.
00:26:28.840
So this has been the briefest of overviews of our sexuality research.
00:26:34.440
We didn't go into any of the weird side paths or anything like that.
00:26:37.460
We just went over like a broad spectrum of how we understand sexuality and we can go
00:26:41.760
deeper if people want us to go deeper in future videos, but I don't want to just have the
00:26:45.760
algorithm think of us as like a sexuality channel.
00:26:48.220
So let us know in the comments, if there's something else you want us to explore, and I
00:26:53.640
One of my favorite things about Gone Wild Audio and why it is probably my favorite NSFW
00:26:58.560
world on the internet is it really enables you to explore things that arouse other people
00:27:06.640
So it's not like looking at an image and being like, I don't know what's going on here or
00:27:10.740
looking at a picture or a video and just not getting it.
00:27:13.780
You are, you know, if you close your eyes and like really try to put yourself in the position
00:27:18.680
of the way that the audio works is you as a listener are experiencing something like someone's
00:27:33.480
And it really allows you to more empathetically experience someone going through whatever the
00:27:40.560
And you may not like it will not arouse you if you're like listening to something is not
00:27:44.620
like part of your particular network of things that turns you on.
00:27:48.700
But it will I think it will help you just better understand other people and what other people
00:27:54.180
are turned on by, especially when you rank by what gets the most upvotes.
00:27:58.240
So and don't just do this for like if you're a woman, don't just do this for men targeting
00:28:05.300
Do this also for women targeting men content, because then you understand like what a large
00:28:09.740
number of men are turned on by like scenarios that really turn like it's just it's so good
00:28:13.240
at helping you understand other people's points of view.
00:28:15.800
So just if you do one thing, let this be your homework and enjoy.
00:28:20.460
And I just to add to what she's saying, because I think it's really interesting is is I think
00:28:25.880
what she's capturing there and the reason why she finds this so engaging is it's the one
00:28:31.880
aspect of other people that is hardest to empathize with.
00:28:34.940
Yeah, it is hardest to model the way that other people are fantasizing when something's
00:28:40.640
arousing them, because it is probably psychologically the largest area of differentiation between
00:28:47.440
And it's really hard watching like two or three or however many other people doing a
00:28:54.080
It's very different to this is as close as you can get to walking in their shoes to like
00:29:00.680
It's like going into someone else's body and loving it.
00:29:07.540
I've never she's I think it's delightful how much she finds this engaging.
00:29:14.020
You're like your face will contort into the most massive cringes sometimes.
00:29:17.140
And sometimes you'll have to just I don't I don't that doesn't sound there's some there
00:29:21.200
are some portions I have to fast forward through.
00:29:23.020
I'm not going to say what because there's some there's some things that a lot of people really
00:29:26.260
like that like for me, extreme disgust response, extreme disgust response.
00:29:31.660
But again, like just it helps me understand like, oh, I am in the minority here.
00:29:37.120
Like I may think that everyone thinks this is gross.
00:29:44.700
And I'm looking forward to our next conversation already.
00:29:50.040
So that's why you didn't have to sign off for me.
00:29:52.220
I would love people if they do like these sorts of topics to let us know in the comments
00:29:57.240
and we can do more videos like this, especially if there's specific areas of arousal that you
00:30:05.840
If anybody wants to help out with any part of this channel, whether it's to create some
00:30:10.660
sort of community group or to help edit shorts or manage a TikTok or something for us, we
00:30:20.500
And in regards to the group, if anybody does start a group or anyone has started a group,
00:30:25.020
because I know some people were talking about that in previous comments, please let us know
00:30:28.600
because we actually only post about half of the videos we make.
00:30:31.540
We do that to try to keep the quality really high.
00:30:33.820
So I'll sometimes go through a video and I'll just be like, eh, I don't know if this is good
00:30:39.660
But, you know, it would be maybe fun to dump some of the ones that we don't publish in a
00:30:44.520
And then if any of them get a lot of attention, then I can post them to the main channel.
00:30:48.220
This is probably far more work than I should be putting into a YouTube with less than 5,000
00:30:56.100
But I really appreciate the recent follower growth and the encouraging comments we've
00:31:02.300
It means a lot to me and it keeps me motivated to try to make this a thing.
