I see your point. I think the issue people have with torture porn featuring women is that it's frequently about the power trip of having control. In media when men are getting beat up (usually by other men, not women) it seems to be more about the hurt/comfort aspect, and because it's much rare to see men in a position that vulnerable. It's common for women, but unusual to see that level of both physical and emotional vulnerability in a man. I suspect that's the draw, and I suspect that if the media did show men to be emotionally vulnerable in the same way they frequently show women to be, it wouldn't be as much of a kink. Just my theories, though!

AYRT

Oh indeed, I get that it manifests differently, and is based in different emotional spaces, but at the same time, you can see how it's still kinda disturbing. Gendered stuff is WEIRD, ain't it?

Oh, yes. Weird and disturbing, for two different reasons, which makes it even weirder!

and because it's much rare to see men in a position that vulnerable.

Strictly on the subject of the rarity of images of vulnerable-looking men (minus all implications of sexuality), I think that's part of the reason so many people like pictures of grown men holding babies.
