I surveyed 4,175 adult Americans from all 50 states about what turns them on and published the findings in a book entitled Tell Me What You Want. As part of this survey, participants were given a list of hundreds of different people, places and things that might be a turn-on. For each one, they reported on how frequently they fantasized about it.
While self-identified Republicans and self-identified Democrats reported fantasizing with the same average frequency—several times per week—I found that Republicans were more likely than Democrats to fantasize about a range of activities that involve sex outside of marriage. Think things like infidelity, orgies and partner swapping, from 1970s-style “key parties” to modern-day forms of swinging. Republicans also reported more fantasies with voyeuristic themes, including visiting strip clubs and practicing something known as “cuckolding,” which involves watching one’s partner have sex with someone else.
By contrast, self-identified Democrats were more likely than Republicans to fantasize about almost the entire spectrum of BDSM activities, from bondage to spanking to dominance-submission play. The largest Democrat-Republican divide on the BDSM spectrum was in masochism, which involves deriving pleasure from the experience of pain.
What connects Republicans and Democrats, I believe, is that their fantasies are at least partly driven by what they can’t have.
sexual appeal that nonmonogamous and voyeuristic acts hold for Republicans likely stems from the fact that sex outside of marriage and multipartner sex are huge no-nos in a political party that continues to make “traditional marriage”
Within the Democratic Party, much of what drives the political agenda is the view that inequality is the source of a wide range of social problems. This is regularly seen in the party platform, which recently made multiple mentions of the need to “level the playing field.” It’s not a stretch, then, to suggest that playing with power differentials—especially in BDSM settings, where women and men might not appear to be on equal footing and where the lines of sexual consent might not always be explicit—is taboo in many Democratic circles.
So, TLDR: Republicans are more likely to be into cuckolding, voyeurism and swinging. Democrats are more likely to be into BDSM.
So how much do I earn if I walk into Politico with my working knowledge of Photoshop and start pasting stock photos together and overusing cheap drop shadows
I'm gonna ask for 100K to start with
Explains 4chan, I guess.
This makes complete sense, they tend to be entirely cuckolding themselves of a good civilized society every time they vote for this fucking party.
Explains the insult too, projected shame
And explains why it never made sense to me
Seems accurate.
Also, people fantasise about Hillary Clinton? Gross.
You mean to tell me that the whole "libcuck" garbage was yet another case of Republican projection? Totally surprised at that revelation!
At work so not about to Google "Origin of libcuck" but wasn't it a response to some meme made by the other end of the spectrum? (the political one)
Isn't BDSM supposed to be a fantasy thing where the submissive can call it off if they need to?
Figures the fuckin Democrat kinks they don't talk about still have more respect towards trust and faith in your partner than Republicans do
To be honest I'm not entirely certain where it came from. To my knowledge it's just something that came from 4chan and was adopted by the Alt-right.
This (alongside his conclusion) is actually interesting. Yeah, inevitable jokes about republicucks being into cuckoldry but you'd expect the reverse to be true, right? I mean, Ayn Rand was into SnM. Maybe things have shifted. Like, a lot.
The OP photo made me think they were into bestiality. Just what is that photo.
Republicans tend to be into cuckolding.
These jokes write themselves.
You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.
"Yeah, yeah, now would you please fuck my wife already?"
Democrats like it because the sub is the real dom - they're the one who's getting what they want and have the power to end it... just like, uh, i don't know, the ILLUMINATI
Wow, I never actually thought about this. I wouldn't suprised if the excuse for their cuckery and infidelity was "So what? We do it, but we do it naked, just like the God himself meant us to. We're not like those damned Democrats, dressing up in black leather and synthetic latex. Do you know why they dress like that? Because they want to combine the black outfits and their sexual perversion to summon Satan himself!"
It's not part of the fantasy, there can be a lot of resisting and saying "No, stop!" Which is why they have safewords, and will stop if the sub says to stop. Because you know, otherwise you're raping them.
Great, now any time I'm scrolling through Pornhub and there's a video where cheating is part of the setup I'm gonna think "smdh so much Republican porn"
Honestly, what disturbs me more is on Pornhub, the "popular across America" or whatever it's called, section, contains an eye-brow raising amount of "step-mom/sister".
Sometimes I fantasize about her being president instead of trump
Republicans are projecting and Democrats live choking, what else is new.
if party identity is baked in like this then we're doomed as a species
I want Trump to fuck my wife
For when you want to indulge your incest kink without getting too weird about it.
Hey don't kink shame
What if that's their kink though?
Glasses Morty's wish came true.
I was at a terribly moderated board with a lot of awful far-righters at the time the "cuck" meme became a political thing and honestly it's worse than you'd think. The idea of the liberal "cuck" is a straight white male who is "cucking himself" by advocating for minorities, women and gays. As in, caring about people other than your own demographic is "cuckoldry" because you don't get any benefits out of it.
I've learned from first hand experience that a lot of people on the right simply lack empathy. Their world view is that everyone else is as awful a person as they are. Helping out disenfranchised people is only letting them willingly take advantage of you. It's a dog eats dog world. It's human nature to fight and kill each other to reach the top.
I've noticed many trends over my time on the internet in which people talk shit and make fun of a topic to an excessive degree, end up unironically liking it after a while. Look at how the internet viewed vaporwave, starting with a bunch of memes on how "deep" and テープカセット420 ASTHETIC it all was, then eventually turned around enjoyed it like a proper genre.
Ultra-right subforums like T_D and /pol/ use the word cuck to describe essentially anyone and anything they dislike, so it was obvious that they were projecting some deep-down issues they were ashamed of.
