There's something to your post, which is why I don't frequent this thread. But at the same time, we all know that this one forum is just a drop in the ocean. There are lots of other forums and corners of the Net that are all over Cam Kasky and co. having these exact same discussions or worse. And in the meantime, celebrity or not, he has begun getting chummy with celebs and traveling in public circles. That's a mistake he'lI probably regret later on as he grows up and tries to regain more of a semblance of a private life, which he is absolutely entitled to having. But in the meantime, what good do you think shaming one forum like LPSG is going to do? What does that accomplish?

Alex from Target? I would agree. Being drug into the limelight when it was never saught can be very unsettling. This fella shoots the shit with big name people. He is not trying to be a wallflower. You can't have it both ways. If you know him well, tell him the internet thinks he is handsome and he needs to be doing a better job of being a non-hetero ho. The fact that his dick pics have not leaked is just dissapointing. Seriously though, tell him to make an OF and show his pretty penis.
Yeah people are really drinking the koolaid if they think his meteoric rise from random student in a school shooting to celebrity activist whose best friends with every famous and important person on the planet was just totally random luck. He knows how to play the game and climb every ladder he needs to.Alex from Target? I would agree. Being drug into the limelight when it was never saught can be very unsettling.

I said in my first message that some of you weren't going to listen, and sure enough the "he's actually a whore who desperately craves the attention of LPSG, which I know for a fact, and therefore I'm justified in saying literally anything I like, no matter how invasive" crowd arrives on schedule.
It's really not that far away from the "well, she asked for it" attitude some men have towards women. It's not the same, but it's adjacent to it, and it happens every fucking time someone has any criticism. Some of you are so badly afflicted with chronic LPSG-brain that you're genuinely convinced that people like Cam want this kind of attention. Just like so many guys are absolutely convinced that women secretly enjoy the unwanted attention they get.
You know nothing about him, his sex life, or his motivations. I know you don't because if you did you wouldn't be saying the things you're saying. Making the most of the platform he has, which is much smaller than you think it is, isn't the same as courting publicity. Anyone with a platform would do the same. People get defensive because he doesn't take any shit, but what's the alternative? Just roll over and take it?
I'm absolutely not saying you can't think he's hot or have fantasies about him, or whatever. Of course you can. But for some of you that isn't enough, for some reason, and you take it a step further and convince each other that scrutinizing his bulge/ass/body/sexual history in detail is good, actually, because you can tell he actually enjoys it, and if he doesn't enjoy it he's just in denial.
Like, speculate all you like. I do and say things I'm not proud of too sometimes. But don't kid yourself that it isn't ultimately harmful, or that you're somehow justified in doing it because you can see into his head. I just wish there was a little more empathy on show sometimes.
Thank you for engaging with what I said and having a conversation about it. I really didn't come here looking for a fight.
The reason I posted here is that Cam is aware of this thread and I didn't actually know there were other places where he gets discussed. I'm not sure he does either. But even if it's true that worse things are said elsewhere, I still think it's a discussion worth having somewhere, so why not here?
Even if he's traveling in more high profile circles, I'm not sure why that matters. Is anyone who spends time with more famous people automatically fair game? He's an artsy type who wants to work in that area, and one of the unfortunate by-products of that is that, sometimes, you become more well known. That's not his fault. It feels pretty regressive to me that anyone who participates in creative industries should be expected to sacrifice privacy. It might be an inevitability, sure, but that's not his fault either.
The bottom line for me is empathy. It's easy on forums like this for people like Cam to become totally abstract and I think an occasional dose of reality is a good thing. I'm not saying he's perfect or above criticism. He's flawed and insecure like most of us are. But he's a person and words matter.
Okay. You know people here won't care and yet you are bitching. What exactly are you trying to prove? Do yourself a favor and stop wasting your time. And I say this as one of the nicer people in this thread.
I'll admit there people who have a misconception about him and how much of an attention seeker he is, but you can't help those people. They don't have the brain capacity to be helped because they have biases against him for "reasons." So like I said you are wasting your time and opening up this thread to a shitstorm of stupid posts we just don't need.
Also, we know he's aware of this thread. He's hinted as much on twitter.

I guess you're right. I knew most people wouldn't listen and that's fine, I guess. People are entitled not to. But I think some people, at least, will have given it some thought. Maybe a minority, but some. It's good for people to be reminded that LPSG doesn't exist in isolation every so often. But yeah, I'll stop being preachy with the people who don't care.
I’ll be honest, since he posted the tweets I’ve felt less good about this thread. It’s nice to have a place to bullshit with some strangers about cute guys but there’s been plenty of comments that make me uncomfortable (not just in this thread) and knowing that Cameron is aware and doesn’t like it puts a bad vibe on the whole affair. This probably seems self-righteous and that’s not my intention, you just seem to be here engaging in good faith so I’m trying to do the same. It’s good of you to try to defend Cameron here, but other commenters are right that you’re just not gonna connect with some people. I don’t necessarily blame them or whatever, everyone’s allowed to have their own feelings. I’m probably going to unfollow this thread now, and maybe typing all of this was dumb but it’s been on my mind. And frankly the fact that I’ve put this much thought into a thread on a site called “large penis support group” is pretty stupid on its face! So idk, go with god y’all.
Ugh, I can't even stay that mad at this thread after those last couple of lines. It's just objectively funny that we're all spending our tiny fleeting existence in the universe arguing on a dick forum.
(Thanks for listening, though.)
Of course they do. And many of us have empathy. But that's not going to change the fact that when he's a young and attractive public figure (and that's what he is now, like it or not and I think part of him does seem to like it) moving in celebrity circles on social media, people are going to talk. Not just here, and tbh it would be very naive for either you or this kid who is allegedly your friend to not realize that this is far from the only forum talking about him. Social media outlets are all over any kind of public figure, especially young people.
I'm not suggesting he should sacrifice his private life, and I hope he can get back and keep as much as he likes in the years to come when the allure of some of his new friends fades. That wasn't my point. My point was, this is the tradeoff any public-facing figure implicitly enters into in the social media age whether they have intended to consent to it or not - when they become a part of that space, they're vulnerable to all sorts of scrutiny. You could shame LPSG into closing the kid's thread tomorrow and it won't matter; there will always be other forums, other people, other conversations. Trying to appeal to this one has no actual impact. But yes, I do think he's just a kid who people probably judge too harshly. I also think he will regret spending so much time Very Online in later life.
I mean, I can't really argue with most of that. He probably does enjoy some aspects of it. I'm sure his feelings about this thread are also conflicted, and that's probably why he drew attention to it rather than just ignoring it. I don't know, it's not really my place to say either way, and honestly I don't think it matters.
It just feels gross to me that he is given so much shit for enjoying some attention, and that somehow this means he's expected to like all the attention people give him. I like attention too, when I'm in the mood for it, and I bet the same is true of everyone here. That doesn't mean I deserve every aspect of my life to be deconstructed on the internet. Is he supposed to block anyone remotely famous and refuse any opportunities he's given to maintain some bullshit purity? I honestly don't get it.
He also struggles a lot with how he got his platform and his place in the world. I'm pretty sure he's been open about that. He isn't some influencer who doesn't give a fuck. He's working it all out gradually the same way I am, and the same way most people do during college years, I guess. And he's doing that with the incredible added stress of knowing that everything he says and does invites criticism. Some of that is fair, but a lot of it isn't.
I've seen one other thread about him somewhere else (not linking to it) which was so horrible and unpleasant that I couldn't finish it. If I saw something like that about me it would fucking crush me, and it would crush Cam, even though he'd hide it. It would crush anyone. I wasn't even the subject of the thread and I felt really anxious afterwards. And what really gets me is that there will be some people reading this who think he completely deserves that, despite not knowing anything about him, and that I'm pathetic for feeling so shitty about it, despite not knowing anything about me.
So I get what you're saying that a lot of this is inevitable, but is that a good reason to just sit back and let all the toxicity flow? It's true that any impact I'm having here is minuscule. But like, isn't that true of almost everything? I mean to stick with the subject, just look at Cam and Parkland. Despite this 'fame' everyone here talks about, nothing really got done. But that isn't a reason to throw your hands up.
Ugh, I don't know. This is a weird place to have this kind of discussion, and I know you're right that I'm basically swimming against the tide. It just gets to me.
I do not object to him making the most of the platform he has. I want him to make the most of it. When you see him next, tell him to make an OF. That way he can monetize the thirst and do so on his terms. The thirst is gonna happen anyway. He is pretty and had media attention...you can't put the genie back in the bottle. The only way to do that is to remove yourself from the world of celebrity entirely, lock down you socials to those you actually know and keep quiet and hope people forget. Anything less and it will continue. For his well-being he needs to adapt to his quasi-celebrity status and all the good and bad that can come with it. Seek mental health counseling for support, which he does already need, and build the life he wants. All that said, I am still gonna wanna see his peener and lurk on hear in the hopes I will see it. Sorry.
First I was Cam, then his ex, and now I've been downgraded to "bro". Feels bad. Please do keep me updated if my identity changes again.
So how bout you just tell us how you met Cam (and why you decided to become such a simp for him)?

What in the hell is this thread at this point? Wow.
I'm glad someone mentioned how nasty he is on social media. A real asshole.
I said this a couple times already but like, just to be super clear, I have zero issues with the thirst if people are honest about it and it doesn't get weirdly invasive. I'd be a hypocrite if I did have issues with that, and so would he. But there's a difference between privately jerking off to him and people publicly critiquing every aspect of his body, personality, sex life, social group, etc. Pretending both are the same and just as harmless as the other is dishonest.
I was just making the point that it's easy to forget there's a real person out there, not an object, and it's all kinds of fucked up to convince yourself (as in, people generally, not you personally) that what you're doing is totally fine because deep down he likes it, or you somehow understand him better than he understands himself. Unless he comes out and says he enjoys the attention, or takes your suggestion, you don't know that, so own it and the potential impact it has.
In fairness to you I haven't read most of your posts because they're numerous and long winded but to summarize my point.
Cameron's a celebrity, he loves being a celebrity, he's chased celebrity and hes gone out of his way to befriend celebrities so he's going to be treated like a celebrity.
I don't see David Hogg or Emma with a bunch of celebrity friends or doing car karaoke with Olivia Rodrigo. Emma X González barely has any social media presence at all. David Hogg seems to have a small circle of regular friends and his thread isn't very active.
This thread wasn't very active until you came on here with your holier-than-thou, sanctimonious attitude. To be honest I find it quite offensive that someone who has chased celebrity as edaciously as Cam has would have a friend come here and try to scold us. Whether he sent you or you came of your own volition.
