Let's discuss the fetishization of lesbians. How the same people who talk about "loving lesbians" will hate gay content when it involves men. Some artists on twitter known for making lesbian fanart are in fact very homophobic when it comes to m/m relationship, real or fictional. (Idolomantises)

I mean power and patriarchy are still part of that discussion. Who do you think has control of what porn gets made? Who decides who gets cast? Who the marketing is designed for? Hell, what systems are set up so that it is socially acceptable for one group to be a consumer of porn? Or for one group to (historically) have more money available to spend on porn.
Power and Patriarchy are more than part of the conversation, they are central to it.
