The video was of a purported stand-up comic named Aylen Skye, a buxom blond with leonine cheekbones and 250,000 Instagram followers. In the clip, Skye, wearing a crop top and Daisy Dukes, tells a joke about renting out a room in her two-bedroom apartment to a cute guy. To Jasunas’ shock, it was, verbatim, her joke, down to the “ums” and “ahs.”

Whoever Skye was, she didn’t appear to be a comic; the website she advertised in her video, AylenTV.com, redirected to NSFW content on Fanvue, a subscription-based OnlyFans competitor that markets itself as the “No1 AI monetisation platform for creators.” And not only did she appear to not be a comic, she also didn’t seem to be real. After looking at Skye’s comments section, Jasunas was fairly convinced she was AI.

“You look at any female comic’s comments section and you’ll see all these men berating her, objectifying her body, saying she’s not funny or the joke is bad,” she says. But with Skye, all of the comments were positive. “That’s how I knew she was fake,” she deadpans.

I don't have any solutions, just think it's a little weird it's never acknowledged as a problem. In fact, we're more likely to frame the problem as men not getting laid than that they are so desperate to get laid they can't relate to a woman normally for a few hours.

But imagine if Excessive Horniness were a DSM disorder based on it actually interfering with people's lives in the way that it very often does, the same way we got Premenstrual Dysphoria.... or if there was a drug that counteracted male horniness. There would be riots.
