I was listening to a radio program today discussing psychopaths, and how they tried treating them with LSD. Part of the program was describing the key element that makes a psychopath, the lack for empathy.
Now I'm not saying cappers are (or aren't) psychopaths but the subject got me thinking about empathy. About that pit in my stomach when I know I've hurt someone, or even POSSIBLY hurt someone who really didn't deserve it. I can't help but consider the way another person may actually feel as a result of my actions, even if those actions are intended to bruise for a greater good (examples banning someone from my room for lacking manners, maybe he'll be better next time even though it stings now).
It's just beyond me how anyone could make a hobby out of something they KNOW is hurtful and seem to actually take pleasure in the persons suffering. I've spend many bored hours while sick reading forums like KK, and I'm never surprised to find a lot of negativity directed towards the women.
I would love to understand more of the why. So far, insecurity and control are the only things that REALLY make sense to me, not saying that's accurate, just what seems logical.
This so much. I would not only like to know why, I would like to know
how.
Whether or not SOME girls are ok with capping, or it may possibly bring them a few future tippers, MOST girls do not like it or want it done. The person capping has absolutely no idea who is who and clearly doesn't care.
Knowing that your hobby can be extremely destructive, that it upsets and aggravates models who find them of themselves and still doing it just for fun does show a serious lack of empathy.
Dwight, as much as you seem to be perfectly polite, and hardly the epitome of evil, you still have this as a hobby. However much you try and justify it, or say how nice you've been to
some models, and how you transfer all money made back into models and mfc, it still doesn't even come close to balancing the scales of right and wrong. It barely even tilts it.
As far as I can see from your posts is you have avoided answering any questions which could paint you in a negative light. Everything you've said is skirting round the edges, focusing on the few good things that come from capping, and blaming the other things on your fellow cappers. Now I get that no one wants to make themselves look like a bastard, but you are not being wholly honest with your answers, in fact you're being very vague and avoiding the real point. So far as much as it's an interesting subject your responses have not really given me any information. It's kind of like when they advertise new fad diet pills everywhere saying how amazing they have been for like 2 people, completely ignoring the remaining thousands that they have caused bad side effects for and then skirting round giving people the information of what is actually in the pills by saying a few of the ingredients, leaving out all the others.
One thing I will also say is I HATE it when people use the excuse of "well if I stop then someone else will take my place." NO. If you carry on capping another load of cappers will still start capping. If you stop capping then another load of cappers will still start capping. But YOU won't be. So that'd mean one less serial capper.
That's kind of similar to when guys who date rape drinks say "well they're getting drunk and are going to shag some random anyway, I'm just helping them along" no. Just no.
Or if people find comparing a capper to a date raper too extreme then people who steal stuff in shops saying "well there'll always be thieves, if I stop someone else will still do it."
Yes there will always be thieves, there will always be rapists, there'll always be cappers and there'll always be murderers, pedos, drunks, drug addicts, pretty much anything negative in the world. Using that fact as an excuse and justification to carry on doing something that you know is wrong is not even an excuse! It's utter wank. You do what you do because it gives you some kind of thrill that is beyond me. You do what you do even though you know for a fact that it hurts/upsets models for your own personal gain. You do not care or you wouldn't do it. Whether or not occasionally you feel like comforting your conscience by doing a few small good deeds doesn't make any difference in what you do or the reasons you do it, it just makes you feel a better about it.
Yes lots of people download movies, or stream music or films. The reason they do it is because cappers make it readily available. Streaming a movie online is kind of similar to stealing a couple of items from a super market. It's a big brand that makes a lot of money, it is not ok. The prices of the food in the shop will have been raised to account for the thefts so essentially it's actually the customers who miss out. Streaming a movie of a camgirl is like going to an individually owned corner shop and stealing a few bars of chocolate. The shop probably won't suffer enormously because they'll raise the prices of their product to counter act it. Capping a cam model is like going into the corner shop, stealing a fuck load of stuff and then going across the street and selling it for cheaper. Free chocolate bars for all! Maybe one of two people will go into the actual shop afterwards and buy something, but most will just take their free shit and go. There is a BIG difference between viewing something that came from a big business that's already making a lot of money and stealing a video from someone who is earning their only living from what they do and sell on cam.
Not that it'll stop, but if cappers didn't exist camgirls would make a fuck load more money. Imagine if free porn didn't exist? People would pay for it. Same with online movies/music. If it weren't so easily available for free online, people would buy it. This actually may truly become serious at some point and perhaps the porn and movie industry will start going under. Maybe. For now there are enough people will basic morals around to pay for things. But not enough. Out of my room count probably only 2-5% ever tip anything and that's generally because they want a different experience or they want videos. For general porn/sexy stuff? Most guys who want that experience can just get it for free.
