Depraved and Debaucherous

In a cultural pivot that's as swift as a TikTok trend, the once-unquestioned allure of heterosexual romance is under fire—recast not as a fairy-tale endpoint but as a potential social liability. Drawing from a Vogue feature, viral podcast snippets, and a probing New York Times magazine essay,  we unpack the rising tide of "heterofatalism": a cocktail of exhaustion, irony, and quiet rebellion among straight women navigating the boyfriend conundrum. 

What was once a status symbol—think "Boyfriend Land" selfies flooding feeds in the early 2010s—has morphed into something subtly shamed, with singlehood emerging as the sleek, mysterio...

The romanticized image of the endlessly wealthy sugar daddy showering his companion with private jets and designer bags is fading in the face of harsh economic realities. A broad economic squeeze is impacting benefactors, who are increasingly mid-career professionals rather than just the ultra-rich, and they are finding it difficult to maintain the "G6 lifestyle." 

As one article highlights, these men are now skipping their own meals to cover a sugar baby's nail appointment and lamenting that they can only afford "Delta Economy Class." This financial strain has given rise to "Splenda daddies" and "salt daddies," men who c...

A groundbreaking study has sent shockwaves through the world of modern romance, revealing that couples who meet through online dating platforms may be missing out on the spark that fuels lasting love. 

Analyzing data from 50 countries, those who find their partners via apps or websites report significantly lower relationship satisfaction and feelings of love compared to couples who meet offline.

The Internet has fundamentally reshaped how people meet and form rom...

Fifty years after Esther Vilar warned that men were enslaved by sex-as-reward, her thesis feels eerily prophetic in 2025.
Today’s so-called “independent woman” has new tools of leverage—dating apps that double as marketplaces, sugar arrangements cloaked as empowerment, and a growing underground economy of rent-for-sex transactions. 
From false rape claims over unpaid encounters to rising shelter-for-sex scandals in Canada, the transactional undercurrent of modern intimacy has reached a breaking point. 
What Vilar once called “the barter of bodies” has become the backbone of digital dating culture, leaving men and women trapped in a high-stakes game where independence...

Playboy Enterprises has traded Los Angeles for Miami Beach, relocating its headquarters in August 2025 to escape California’s “anti-business” climate, as stated by CEO Ben Kohn in the *Los Angeles Times* and *Daily Mail*. The move to a flashy Miami Beach office positions Playboy to tap into the city’s vibrant, liberated vibe, reminiscent of the *Miami Vice* era’s glitz. However, a *Miami Herald* opinion piece questions whether hosting an adult entertainment icon aligns with Miami Beach’s aspirations, sparking debate about the city’s evolving identity.

Simultaneously, Miami has become the epicenter of a new adult entertainment...

Tim Ash, co-author of the book Primal Dating: The Unflinching Evolutionary Psychology Guide to Modern Relationships. Ash, an authority on evolutionary psychology, discusses how human dating behavior is profoundly influenced by our evolutionary past, arguing that our biology supersedes modern cultural narratives. He explains that men and women evolved for different, complementary roles, which dictate their mating strategies. Women are selective, seeking a "proven winner" who can provide and provision, while men are bred to compete for the best options. This foundational understanding is crucial for navigating dating, which Ash and his co-author, Dr. Limor Gottlieb, believe is a "hellscape"...

A new study published in the Journal of Research in Personality suggests that people often make inaccurate judgments about an individual's personality based on their tattoos.

Researchers at Michigan State University, including William Chopik and Brooke Soulliere, conducted an experiment involving 274 tattooed adults and a separate group of college students and professors who were asked to judge the personalities of the tattooed individuals based on photos of their tattoos alone. The study found that while the judges often agreed with each other on what a tattoo might signify, their conclusions rarely matched the self-reported personalities of the tattoo...

Trauma bonding, a profound and often paradoxical emotional attachment, develops in relationships characterized by a cyclical pattern of abuse and intermittent positive reinforcement. This complex dynamic, where a victim forms a strong emotional connection with their abuser despite experiencing harm, can manifest across various relationship types, including those stemming from adolescent sexual abuse, evolving into toxic adult relationships, and even appearing in the contemporary landscape of "sugar relationships." The transactional core of these "bitter bargains" can, for some, become another layer in a life already burdened by the echoes of past betrayal and unhealed trauma.Adolescent sexual abuse, a deeply...

The 33-year old receives upwards of $16,000 to $17,000 a month in allowances and lavish gifts (including a horse for her birthday), reframes profit-based dating not as a power imbalance, but as a path to empowerment and a "soft life" on her own terms.

www.ashleymadison.comKOP welcomes Ashley Madison's Chief Strategy Officer, Paul Keable, to peel back the layers of the controversial dating platform. Keable shed light on Ashley Madison's unique credit-based system, which, unlike traditional subscriptions, empowers users (especially men) to be more discerning and avoids the "spray and prey" messaging often seen on other apps. He attributed the platform's two-decade longevity to its unapologetically clear mission: "Life is short, have an affair."

The OnlyFans battlefield has never been hotter—or more twisted. In a world where simping fuels empires and sex appeal is a weapon, two of the platform’s most provocative queens are locked in a feud that’s as personal as it is performative.

OnlyFans influencers Bonnie Blue, Annie Knight and Lily Phillips are pushing the boundaries of online adult content with controversial “competitive sex” challenges, boasting about sleeping with hundreds of men in a matter of hours. 
While some participants claim empowerment and financial gain, experts warn of the severe physical, mental, and emotional toll these stunts can bring — including trauma, objectification, and long-term relationship difficulties.

According to an article from *Cosmopolitan*, doomscrolling—endlessly consuming negative content on social media—can erode hope in dating by amplifying fears of rejection, betrayal, or failure. This behavior fosters a pessimistic outlook, making women feel more guarded and less open to authentic connections. Social media platforms and dating apps, while designed to connect people, often exacerbate these challenges.

For instance, a 2021 *Guardian* article notes that online dating can leave women feeling less happy, less likely to find long-term partners, and more vulnerable to negative experiences, such as sexual violence.

Similarly, a 2023 *New York Post* study high...

Tattoos have long been intertwined with culture, identity, and rebellion—but in recent years, they've also become the subject of deeper psychological inquiry, especially in relation to trauma. While initial reports highlighted that many trauma survivors turn to tattoos as a "coping mechanism" or "form of expression," feedback has made it clear: we need to go deeper.

Rather than settling on surface-level generalizations, we should explore the psychological mechanisms that may drive tattoo acquisition post-trauma. One plausible hypothesis is that tattoos serve as a form of self-verification—a way to regain a sense of coherence and control over iden...

The New Orleans City Council unanimously passed an ordinance on May 8, 2025, to protect sex workers from arrest and prosecution for prostitution if they are reporting crimes committed against them. This new law codifies an existing New Orleans Police Department policy that discourages arresting sex workers who are victims or witnesses to crimes, aiming to encourage their cooperation with investigations without fear of their own arrest.

A key component, the "Right to Safe Sex" provision, prevents law enforcement from using the possession of condoms as evidence of prostitution.

Dating apps are leaving people depressed, lonely, and desperate for real connection. Despite the rise of so-called "offline dating" alternatives, the core problem remains: online, physical attractiveness still trumps all.

Dating today is broken. Online platforms dominate modern romance, but instead of creating meaningful connections, they’re fueling loneliness, anxiety, and even suicidal thoughts. One study finds that in the world of dating apps, physical attractiveness outweighs all other traits, leaving users to feel disposable and dehumanized.

While some turn to “offline dating” apps that promise organic encounters, these often feel clunky, elitist, or just as emotio...

The landscape of dating and relationships in 2025 appears increasingly complex, marked by a distinct paradox. On one hand, there's a reported desire among singles to move away from rigid rules and embrace more authentic, spontaneous connections, focusing on the "real unscripted moments" (Independent). The fundamental skills of flirting – building rapport, showing genuine interest, and playful engagement – remain crucial for sparking these initial connections (Art of Manliness).

However, this desire for authenticity often clashes with the realities of modern dating, particularly in the digital realm. Expectations can be incredibly high, sometimes bordering on transactional, as highlighted by instances like indi...

Bonnie Blue has officially blown the lid off spring break decorum with a 41-minute documentary that’s being called “vile,” “reckless,” and “career-ending”—depending who you ask.

The interaction between the two individuals presents a nuanced picture regarding potential avoidance or the establishment of a "friend zone" dynamic.

On one hand, the recipient's initial terse responses and their emphasis on their current stable housing situation could suggest a desire to maintain some emotional distance or boundaries. Their direct questioning of the initiator's motives for inquiring about their housing might also indicate a degree of guardedness.

From the initiator's perspective, sharing a Facebook group related to the recipient's interests and expressing empathetic concern about their well-being, while caring, might be interpreted as leaning towards...

In the age of social media, the rise of online harassment has become a growing concern. For many women, this includes receiving unwanted messages from men on various platforms.
