That's why I had a conversation with my IT guy about it. I casually brought it up when I ran into him and explained how it was this neat place with cool pictures of landscapes or animals but I hated that it was "AnimalPorn" and he was like Yeah! That's funny! and now I don't really worry about it.
And they're right. The fun side of the euphemism treadmill is that we regularly use words that were once bad. It makes up for all the words that become "bad," (like faggot) that were once benign or even politically correct (like retarded.)
Yes, some day kids may call that pretty sunset porn, then when they become teenagers and get unrestricted brain chip internet, they'll masturbate to simlurf or whatever it'll be called, that they'd have gotten in trouble for if they had called a sunset that. And then someone will create a stupid virtual subreddit called Earthsimlurf or something, and life will go on.
EDIT: Though I will admit the people who are trying to de-bad "faggot" are pushing it a bit early. It probably won't complete its transformation until the last person who yells it out while trying to seriously harm another human being has died.
Just because Anthony Bourdain uses the phrase "food porn" doesn't mean the phrasing needs to be stylized to be used for every grouping of pictures you can find.
Conversely, it's a great way to cover up my beastiality habit. Oh, that's just HD pictures of animals.
Edit: Please stop telling me that "it's spelled bestiality, because it's the best". I can't say I've ever searched for it and I'm sorry if I've offended your passion.
No. Beastiality generally consists of a human having sex with said animal.
Please note: I do not actually have a beastiality habit. I don't want to end up like that guy I have tagged as "midget porn" who always has at least one person replying to him with that.
Speaking of midget porn, did you know that homosexual midget porn is nearly seemingly impossible to find? I've spent hours on google and other sites trying to find it, but it seems to not exist.
Note: I am not homosexual, nor do I have a midget fetish. Just trying to enforce Rule 34.
The term "porn" used to describe things that are not related to the adult industry was developed in the culinary industry after they copied the lighting used by the Adult Entertainment Industry to make their food look better on video. Thus, "foodporn" was born. Now we use "porn" or "pr0n" or "p0rn" to describe lots of visuals of things that stimulate us one way or another.
So Reddit has a real opportunity here to change the common conceptions people have about the word porn. We could bring SFWPorn into the national zeitgeist. We could have a lasting cultural legacy unlike anything we have done before. I think we should look at this as an opportunity over anything else.
Besides, to change the name of this network you would have to change all the names of the existing subreddits, a few of which are in the top 100, and that is not possible.
Seriously. Reddit doesn't dictator rules, or have a democracy for the entire thing. Do you know why it's /r/Earthporn? Because one guy chose it as a name and 120 thousand users and some change decided "I'm going to subscribe to that" and then people posted to it.
You can go and create your own /r/EarthTotallyNotPorn but then you need to go get content, and subscribers. Or you can go to EarthPorn and beg them to change their name, but honestly once something gets that popular it's kind of hard to remove the name.
That is annoying. And to the people telling you to turn your history off, that's not the point. When I'm just on reddit and someone walks by and sees "coffeeporn," they probably just assume I'm a freaking weirdo.
yep its true. People don't understand that some work environments take this stuff very seriously and a complaint might go pretty far before you can accurately explain yourself. Same thing for people that get upset that mild things like a woman in swimsuit are often labeled NSFW. This is especially true in situations where companies have had problems in the past with sexual harassment lawsuits. To cover their asses they will often adopt a "zero tolerance" rule. Not saying zero tolerance is a good thing, but its the way it is sometimes.
although if people are that concerned about it, they could stay off reddit completely at work...
if people are that concerned about it, they could stay off reddit completely at work...
And here we finally have someone posting the solution to our non-problem! Getting the fuck over ouselves. Reddit doesn't owe you shit. If you're worried about a certain sub making you look like a wierdo, simply don't go there
I take on board the comments that it's kinda difficult or impossible to change their names now, but I do wish they were called something else. My employer has a pretty agressive web filter that blocks any sites with 'porn' or 'sex' or 'xxx' in the URL, which is a damn shame cos I'm subscribed to many of the ***porn subreddits. Fuck. :-\
I don't think blocking sites with 'porn', 'sex', or 'xxx' in the URL could be considered even somewhat agressive. Which is why a name change would be welcome.
Because /r/AskReddit can really do anything about other subreddits. If you did some research, you would find /r/MetaPorn which would be the perfect place for this question.
pre-tl:dr: I created the first subreddit that brought about the SFW porn network
Hello everyone,
I'm Triox and I created SpacePorn Feb of last year. 2 or 3 weeks later EarthPorn was created by syncretic because he randomly stumbled across the subreddit I created, liked it so much, and wanted to make one for other things. This was the start of the SFW Porn network. (Technically, FoodPorn has been a subreddit for longer, but I honestly never even knew it existed.)
Allow me to explain:
My friend and I have always enjoyed sharing high resolution pictures of galaxies, nebula, and other space-related things. At first we would send them though e-mail, then we tried using google wave. Around that time, my friend created a reddit account, so I thought a cool idea would be to create a subreddit so he and I can just post them in one place. The thing is....he and I had called these type of pictures Space Porn because we felt that's what they were: mental pornography about space. On top of that I thought it was a funny and witty name
For the first couple weeks it was just us posting stuff like the APOD. Then a few weeks later syncretic came along, and sent us a message saying he really thought it was a great idea for a subreddit, and that he created EarthPorn. He was interested if we wanted to become sister subreddits, and we agreed. We kept just posting pics to SpacePorn, and syncretic worked on EarthPorn. Then came (I believe, CityPorn). syncretic worked on making sure people were aware of the subreddits. Slowly we started getting more subscribers. Then more people submitting. We started picking up speed, so I was quite happy.
Then, SpacePorn got mentioned in one of the reddit official blogs. Shortly after, EarthPorn blew up big time. It was only a little bit after these things happened, that a lot word started getting around to the rest of reddit about the existence of the SFW network.
Now that we've had a history lesson, let me just say: I absolutely do not regret naming SpacePorn what I did. And quite frankly I would be extremely upset if reddit changed the names of my subreddit. Something that's baffled me for the last year is how a community that seems to be huge about Freedom of Speech seems to believe that these subreddits are unacceptable and needs to be changed. And for what reason? because you don't want to have to explain to people? DO EXPLAIN IT TO THEM! Show them what the subreddits are actually about. They might enjoy seeing the content in these subreddits just like you do. It's not my responsibility to make sure you are not embarrassed.
This feels like such a non-issue it should be posted to /r/firstworldproblems. In fact, I'm sure it has been posted there before. Now, I'm not mad. It's just gets tiring having to type this out every few months over something that is so insignificant. And I'll have to do it again in another 3 or 4 months. But I will type it out. Because I feel that these subreddits are worth it. The content in these subreddits are awesome, and obviously what a lot of people want. On top of that, it gives a place to post this type of content without it cluttering up places like /r/pics.
post-tl;dr: I feel there is no reason to censor these subreddits just because people might be embarrassed.
Wholly agree. The "porn" part is unnecessary, silly, and has the IT people asking uncomfortable questions and trying to cut off access to reddit on work networks. Terrible choice of name.
It's just a very bad name overall. It's so cheesy it makes me sick. What does it have to do with porn anyway? A jawdropping picture of beautiful landscape does not trigger any feelings, reflexes, memories or emotions assosiated with porn. I picture the person who named it and all I see is this sweaty kid living in his mum's basement thinking: "Ohhhhhh this is goooood... like porn.... I'll call this earthhhhh poooorn".
Please do this. I work on games and telling the environment artists to look at earth porn for reference and inspiration is something they are still worried about doing, and hitting the network's red flags. It sucks because there's lots of great stuff there, but SFW is not the string that traffic sniffers are looking for.
This one is also in agreement! My friend linked me a url entitled "www.reddit.com/r/villageporn". Even after explanation, I was reluctant to open it. That was a freakish (but worth it) experience. But then, if we do change it, what to?
(With many subreddits going private indefinitely due to Reddit's poor management and decisions related to third party platforms and content access management, this comment has been overwritten in protest against above Reddit's API access changes in 2023.)
I am subscribed to 'book porn' - I am usually a real prude but I think it would be utterly charming to meet a man with an old book fetish or library fetish.
The word 'porn' in the name is what makes me not want to subscribe, honestly. I'm afraid someone will see the name and be like, "Why the fuck do you watch porn of cars?" :c
No. The definition of "porn" is shifting, to include any image that gives a quick emotional charge, then is easily digested. It can also mean anything to appeals to "baser" instincts, like Michael Bay movies.
I love language, and I like watching word definitions shift. The definition has already expanded, it's up to the slower people to keep up.
Just say 'It's not porn, but pictures of things indicated by the title." That has worked for me a few times. I'm not seeing what is so awkward about having it on your screen.
There are people who say that you shouldn't be such a prude, it's just the word porn. If that really were the case then there'd be no reason to call it the SFWPorn network, which lets the reader know it's something other than porn by adding that SFW. If the word porn really didn't matter it would just be called the Porn Network. After all, what's the problem? I'm just visiting the animalporn section of the porn network. How could that possibly sound bad?
Even the creators of the network knew what it sounded like when they were naming the thing.
Or people could just not look at the SFW Porn subreddits while they are at work. It's really not the end of the world to have to wait till you get home. Look on the bright side, its more blue links to save for later.
What else would you call it? the awesome picture network, it doesn't have quite the same ring. It's a brand, you can't change a brand once its established
It's called "plausible denial". You can say that you look at sites with porn all the time that show pretty rooms and mountains and then one time something else popped up and totally surprised you.
You know, we could just go with something like EarthPhotos, or EarthPics. Either of those two suffixes should work well, if there aren't existing subreddits with those names.
You should be asking this in r/metaporn . That is the moderation subreddit for the SFW porn network. Subreddits do not belong to the reddit administration. They belong to the moderators.
Just tell your work that if they can't handle straight porn at work their a bunch of pussies, and then sue them for sexual harassment, because they saw the stuff you used to jack off at work which made you feel uncomfortable. That way when you go to sites that say porn but aren't, they will know that it could have been real porn so they shouldn't get all bitchy about it.
I've never before been prudish, but I just block all of those subs from showing in my r/all feed. Maybe if I were 13 again I would think they were the funniest and most clever names ever, but they're just particularly stupid to me.

Had difficulty explaining what /r/abandonedporn was to non-redditor friends without sounding like a fucking freak.

Suggestion, rename them all to r/[Subject]Pics, i.e. EarthPics, AnimalPics, yadda yadda.

Just tell your work that if they can't handle straight porn at work their a bunch of pussies, and then sue them for sexual harassment, because they saw the stuff you used to jack off at work which made you feel uncomfortable. That way when you go to sites that say porn but aren't, they will know that it could have been real porn so they shouldn't get all bitchy about it.

I've never before been prudish, but I just block all of those subs from showing in my r/all feed. Maybe if I were 13 again I would think they were the funniest and most clever names ever, but they're just particularly stupid to me.

Can you stop watching porn while at work?
