It’s like watching a clown show. Maybe he should watch more porn and grow up.

I would say "monitoring food intake" means "making sure there isn't too much". One can infer through context that "too much" porn to conservative Christians would be "any" porn. Given the context of who the article is discussing, I did not assume they were sharing porn with each other. I have not seen any comments where this was assumed, as well.

making sure there isn’t too much

which implies that some amount is expected, that's my only point.

Really seems like a good faith effort you're making there, taking just the part in quotes and making like it was my whole argument.

[-] RickRussell_CA@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

I'm not sure why the quote is getting you bent out of shape. "monitoring X intake" implies that someone is taking in X ("intake", definition 2 in Merriam Webster ), and it's being measured & reported ("monitoring"). It doesn't matter whether X is food or water or Youtube videos or porn.

It's just the wrong word here. I'm not saying it's history's greatest crime, just a bad editorial decision that leads to confusion.

You're the only one confused my dude
