People who shut themselves from analyzing "supposedly other people's
interactions" are bound to become anti-progressive forces of evil.
Indian culture is by and large based on evil, backward and anti-human
religious and casteist practices. Other cultures also have their evil
religious, and capitalist influences. But to stop short of analyzing
anything is worse.

You have got it wrong. First of all somebody else wrote that article.
That article is mainly about patterns in sexual practices of some FOSS people.
It is not porn.
The comment that you have referenced is more about porn, taken out of
context and not relevant to the matter under consideration.
The author of the article has made interesting observations about
society and you should try to analyze without your social
conditioning.

Without going into too much complexity, I think we should listen to and read diverse views and keep an open mind. This is my 2 cents only.

It was about FOSS people and their cultural practices. You seem to be
shocked by the article because of your social conditioning.
> You shared the link that means you support it !
The article suggests that some FOSS people try and break free from
social conditioning and follow practices that seem sensible to them.
It is a fact.
FYI, I do not see any need to oppose the sexual practices of
consenting adults. I see things from a scientific point of view. Every
kind of sexual practice should involve responsibility and relevant
precautions.
Sex-related crimes happen because of societal repression of the sexual
expression of people and lack of sex education.
