You remember "teabagging"? Well, this is better

Donald Trump Jr. has launched a news aggregation site he calls MxM News. He claims it stands for "minute by minute."

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/mar/23/donald-trump-jr-news-aggregation-mxm-news

It will, of course, have "minute by minute" coverage of Hunter Biden's laptop.

Someone please tell me this stupid shit was advised MxM is an abbreviation for man-on-man gay porn.

Only 9 vids came up in a search using that term on pronhub (sp), and only like 2 of those were just men in them by the look of the description and preview.

No offense, but I don't think you're right on this one. If it is, it's quite obscure.

brought back electronic parts and programming. Urban dictionary mainly sez it's an African clicking noise and part of speech.

It is, however, a gay/bi subgroup on Pornhub (but what isn't?)

and it brought up only a handful of videos. Most of which were NOT 'gay porn'.

Which leads me to believe if it 'means that' ... it's not a common term.

If it was really a common/known thing, you could just type MxM and you'd get back all sorts of things referencing this meaning. It would provide similar results to if you just type in M4M.

Try each of those and you'll see what I mean.

require a more specific search.

The claim wasn't that it was a common/known thing - but that it is an abbreviation for man on man gay porn. Which it is - even if it isn't the most common meaning of the term. Your Google search should have confirmed this.

mxm is not

A well-known contextual meaning and a salient reference point are vital parts of a successful meme.


I have spent as much time and effort on this as I care to.

If people want to roll with it and pretend it is a thing, then more power to them.

1. it is the least recc'd ', least accepted definition' by far. Only FOUR people gave upvoted it (and one was probably the person who entered it)

2. It is less than 10 months old. IF it was a legit thing, it would have been entered in long before that.

One of the other definitions is over 12 years old. All the the others are basically the same thing, what West Indians call 'kissing your teeth' as a sign of irritation or disgust.

bottom, least accepted definition





as opposed to the others, which are all higher rated

Anything the Trumps do is either a grift or a failure.

Let's see how Junior's news aggregate site works out. If it's anything like Truth Social, it'll fail because the intended audience is too small and locked into their echo chamber.

Besides, is there anything really wrong with man-with-man or woman-with-woman porn?
