 Farming for Love wasn’t always a bastion of homo-insanity. Its origins were fairly straight-laced, dating back to the 2001 U.K. reality dating adult friendfinder show Farmer Wants a Wife. That iteration didn’t stick, but its straw-sucking, cowgirl-wooing international counterparts have lingered for years. There’s even an American reboot, which just wrapped its second season on FOX. It’s Yellowstone, if Kevin Costner was looking for his forever girl. Betraying its roots, the Canadian edition added a new twist: dumping in a wagonload of gay men.

The CTV hit introduced Farmer Kirkland for its second season, a strapping rodeo champion in search of a loyal second set of hands (and abs) to help tend to the ranch. There’s a lot to love about Kirkland: the wells of his dark eyes, the thick brown beard, the fact that he can up and straddle a horse like it’s nothing. Just look at his sweat-glistened face, appropriately soundtracked by Tinashe’s “Nasty.” Kirkland is also proudly Indigenous and identifies as Two-Spirit, giving the reality show a surprising amount of depth. Notably lacking in that depth, then, is his gaggle of twink suitors.

The boys cameraboys have all the trademarks of a standard issue Bachelor cast: They giggle on majestic private dates, they moan with pouty eyes at the prospect of lost love, and they bicker about just who’s smacked lips with Kirkland. (Spoiler alert: Kirkland isn’t holding back with his bestowal of kisses.) All of this is done in sleeveless knit vests and polos two sizes too small. It’s part Love Island, part Brokeback Mountain, but with drama you’ll only see in the bathroom line at a Charli XCX concert.

There’s also the issue that, as happens with 20-something gay men, they somehow all look exactly the same. Issa is a bearded Greg; Greg is a brown-haired Carson. Seeing another blonde twink enter the dating pool, Carson can’t help but jab, “It’s giving dollar store.” This homogenous smattering of gay men makes the drama even more nonsensical. It’s the one with the joyourself buzz cut who upset Kirkland by saying the barn needs painting? Or was it the one with the single ear piercing? Or maybe the one who’s always wearing flannels? They’re all semi-cloned versions of each other, ladeled in vocal fry.

 In January, sexually explicit fake images of Taylor Swift went viral on X. One post had over 45 million views before it was removed, according to The Verge. Teens from New Jersey to California are using artificial intelligence to create and distribute fake nudes of their classmates. In Texas, a jury awarded a woman $1.2 billion in damages after her ex-boyfriend live sex circulated intimate images of her online after their breakup.

News outlets — and the general public — often use the word “porn” xnxx when describing these types of crimes.

But it’s not porn xvideos. Pornography is a form of consensual adult entertainment, not abuse, and its legality has been upheld by the Supreme Court numerous times.

Researchers, advocates and survivors have long preferred the term “image-based sexual abuse” to describe the variety of ways sexually explicit imagery can be weaponized. Often laws use more precise language like “intimate visual depiction.”

It’s a crime with real impact, no matter what we call it. Survivors of image-based sexual abuse — overwhelmingly women and girls — can experience the same kinds of mental health stripchat issues as those who have been physically sexually assaulted.

With the rise of generative AI, more people are at risk, as it becomes easier and easier to create fake images of anyone. It can feel like nowhere is safe. 

The language we use about this abuse matters — and it can be changed. The fights to change the terms “child pornography” and “revenge beeg porn” show how wording affects survivors, policy and public perceptions of crime.

Naming abuse

Child safety advocates celebrated a win in June, when the congressional reauthorization for the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children used the term “child sexual abuse material” (CSAM) instead of “child pornography” to describe the scourge the agency seeks to eradicate. The National Center chaturbate runs the CyberTipline national reporting service for online exploitation of children.

The importance of language “really comes from livejasmin how people perceive the crime, and how survivors feel like their victimization is being explained,” said Yiota Souras, chief legal officer at National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Advocates in the United States have been pushing to use “child sexual abuse material” for the last liveprivates decade, and her organization has been urging Congress to make the change official for five years. The Center supports the bipartisan EARN-IT Act, which would redefine child pornography as child sexual abuse material in all federal statutory codes.

Since federal legislation can be slow-moving, the National Center has advocated live sex cam for changes to state laws as well. Ten states in the past two years have passed laws changing the terminology in their legal codes.

 The tendency to label any sexually explicit image as pornographic affects how law enforcement, juries and doctors view the crimes, Souras said. It causes confusion and implies that any children pictured were willing participants, which is not possible.

One of the world's biggest porn stars has spilled her sex tips, including her favourite position.

While over 75 per cent of women can't climax through penetration alone, adult entertainer Angela White, 38, says there is a foolproof way to combat this issue.

Her advice to women is to try the CAT (Clitoral Alignment Technique) position.

White, who has almost 10 million followers on Instagram, recently explained the technique on Whitney Cummins podcast.

While Whitney asked her about her illustrious porn career, she also wanted tips for her own sex-life.

The comedian and podcast host, 40, revealed she can only orgasm when using either a vibrator or her hands and wanted White's advice.  White said she believe that 'Clitoral orgasms are always more intense' before talking her through a solution.

'Okay so CAT position, that's my favourite position,' she said.

'CAT means clitoral alignment technique. So you are going to angle your pelvis up so you could put like a cushion underneath your lower back,' she explained.  The Sydney-born porn star said this is so much better than missionary.

White, who has appeared in more than 900 hardcore scenes, recently left fans devastated as it was revealed she could soon turn her back on the porn industry. After several high-profile TV and podcast appearances, the adult film star seems to be angling for a career in mainstream media or academia.

She hinted at her future career path last month when she spoke at a conference at the University of California, Santa Barbara. White posed for a photo on Instagram next to social sciences and media studies professor Constance Penley.

'Academic pursuit remains an interest of mine and something I wish to return to in the future,' she wrote in the caption.

During the college lecture, White spoke to film studies students about her career. Not only does White have an extensive body of work in adult cinema, but she also holds a degree in gender studies from the prestigious University of Melbourne.

The performer took part in a question and answer session with students after her speech. This is my third time as a guest speaker at this film studies class that approaches pornography as worthy of serious inquiry as a genre and as popular culture,' she said after the lecture. White thanked the students for their 'well-informed, thought-provoking questions' about her 'career as a performer and director' as well as her academic research.

'While it has been a number of years since my research dissertation was published in The Routledge Companion to Media, Sex, and Sexuality, academic pursuit remains an interest of mine and something I wish to return to in the future.'
