I dont really think its any less weird that donating money to millionaires running in tights grabbing balls. And then, get this, after they are done with the career of ball grabbing they talk, and people give them more money for it.
That.. took me a second.. but yeah. It’s exactly like valuing a celebrities opinion on politics. You sang a catchy song or acted in a fun popular movie and suddenly you think you can actually tell people how to vote?
Yeah but... The meme in OP wasn't about paying to watch a porn show. That would still be different than paying for a sports game but I could see the analogy and grant you have a point there.
No, the meme here is about men getting so wrapped up in a parasocial relationship that their desire for intimacy leads them to do things that are not only pitiful in terms of the interpersonal dynamic, but are also financially ruinous. That's very different than paying to watch porn and it's even more different than buying a ticket to a sports game, even an overpriced ticket.
Finally, I'll add that I'm quite surprised by the attitude that equates having a private, porn-based relationship with being a sports fan. I suspect this gets talked about regularly among people who participate in OF etc, as a sort of rationalization/normalization?
No it's not lol. Not even close. One is on a screen the other is in real life. Do you have trouble telling the difference? You might want to get checked for mental disabilities.
And if it's on a public streaming site like Twitch you don't even need to pay to watch egirls lmao. So sending money is a donation, bc you don't get anything extra in return.
Everyone who buys a hat for more than $5, a jersey for more than $15. Tickets for more than $5. Pay perview. Parking at a stadium. More than $3 for a hotdog or $4 for a budweiser.
Your $600 sports event or $100 bar bill pays the way up to franchise owners and athletes. Millionaires and billionaires.

Imagine donating money or subs to a millionaire.
