-Or do you remember when half the "shock sites" that people would send under the pretense of being EW GROSS were just gay and trans porn.  Like meatspin was supposedly SO NASTY NEED EYEBLEACH but its just a girl with a wiener twirling.  Or lemonparty being oh so BARFO But its just three naked old dudes.  A lot of that survives to this day, like channer memes that were Just Gay Porn like gachimuchi or kuso miso tech, versus the equally cringe straight porn equivalent theyd jerk off to..+Or do you remember when half the "shock sites" that people would send under the pretense of being EW GROSS were just gay and trans porn.  Like meatspin was supposedly SO NASTY NEED EYEBLEACH but its just a girl with a wiener twirling.  Or lemonparty being oh so BARFO But its just three naked old dudes.  A lot of that survives to this day, like channer memes that were Just Gay Porn like gachimuchi or kuso miso tech, versus the equally cringe straight porn equivalent theyd jerk off to.  There's like a thousand heterosexual lolicon animes with very disturbing premises, but for some reason Boku No Pico was the one gay one that became the one to send to people for shock value... tinfoilhat.jpg.
