/u/TumbleweedFail on Have you ever wanted to kiss someone?

I think I'm curious about kissing and I like the idea of it but I don't think it's for me. Before I understood more about myself and the ace community, I guess I used to confuse that curiosity with a desire for it but looking back I realise that I've never once imagined myself actually kissing somebody (just thinking about it in passing).

/u/Sophie_R_1 on Can asexual people still be fascinated/addicted to pornography or sexual fantasies and get off on them?

Oh, makes more sense. Thanks for the answer! November 20, 2021 at 11:35PM

/u/thedoctorx121 on Is getting turned on by someone, thinking they’re hot, and imagining them in a sexual situation, but not actually wanting to have sex with them sexual attraction?

Then what is sexual attraction? November 20, 2021 at 11:32PM

/u/anonymousartist13 on How did people respond when you told them you're ace?

What the fuck? November 20, 2021 at 11:28PM

How to deal with religious trauma in having sex?

I can’t seem to shake the ‘sex before marriage’ thing out of my head when it’s been ingrained in me for so long and although I don’t follow Islam at all (believe me I drink, smoke, do all sorts of drugs) that’s the one thing that I can’t stray away from the like other prohibitions. I guess it’s because a part of me knows that once it’s gone I can’t go back but even that has flaws in its logic. Does anyone know have any advice on how to deal with this, or have similar experience being raised religious but still having premarital sex?

I just had to get a horribly painful vaginal cyst removed, so I'm here to remind you all to take care of your sexual health.

A few months ago I got a full Brazilian wax. I've gone to this wax place before to get my eyebrows done but this was my first Brazilian wax. They told me a special kind of oil all over my vulva to help prevent/get rid of ingrown hairs. A few weeks after my Brazilian, I got what I thought was an ingrown hair on my labia majora. According to Google, exfoliating and using heat will bring an ingrown hair to the surface. I did that after a twelve hour shift and went to bed. When I woke up to go to work my "ingrown hair" was very pissed off and inflamed. I booked an appointment for a few days later at my gynecologists office. I thought I would be good to go to work. Since I work at a hospital as a nurse, all the walking and just manual labor you do at a hospital, further aggravated it. I got to the point that I was waddling at work and wasn't really being myself at work. All my coworkers are looking at me like they want to ask me something but decide against it. I went in...

Do you need to pull out when wearing a condom?

If she’s on the pill and I’m wearing a condom, do I still need to pull out? Is that what people normally do? Or is it ok to orgasm inside her?

does it hurt a lot when the hymen break?

hi, i'm Grace i'm a teenager and i'm a virgin (even to i already had oral sex), this may sound stupid but i really need to know/help. i've been thinking about this (breaking my own hymen) for quite some time and i wanna try but i'm too afraid it may hurt. until idk 3 months ago i never penetrated anything inside my vagina, but i started with small things (really thin things and ALWAYS with condoms) then i started putting larger things inside me like hmm my mascara tube. it didn't hurt at all but i was very patient. so i'm thinking about breaking my own hymen and i NEED to know if it will hurt (hmm in a scale of 0 to 10) and how can i do it (2 fingers? the mascara bottle? do i need to force it or...?)

Acne on thighs

Does anyone else have a bunch of acne on their thighs? I’m a really chubby woman and I have acne and acne scars on my inner thighs from a (non-contagious!!) disease called Hidrandenitis Suppurativa(HS) so I get an occasional abscess on my groin areas. I’m super insecure about it and I was wondering does anyone else struggle with this as well and how do you keep it from bringing down your confidence for sex?

Hung out with my ex earlier and was what we did inappropriate?

My ex texted me and said he wanted to talk. I agreed and we got food then went back to his apartment. We talked about the breakup and then he told me that he missed me and called me over to him. He was laying on the couch and I cuddled up next to him and we just held each other. We both fell asleep and when I woke up, I thought, “ We aren’t together this is weird” so I left. Maybe it was a mistake going over to his place. We aren’t together and we shouldn’t be doing that right? Submitted November 21, 2021 at 12:00AM My ex texted me and said he wanted to talk.

Crush on coworker

I’ve been at my job for 3yrs now and never had a crush on any guy — not even at my other jobs but anyways, there’s a new guy and he’s just so handsome in my eyes . I’m attracted to him and he has a great personality. Last week we both were on the elevator at work and he was just staring at me and that’s how everything kind of started. After that I started seeing him around the building. He switched over to my team and has been working with me. We always look over at each other and my reason is I obviously like him . I heard him talking to our supervisor and first thing I heard was “about to get married” and that caught my attention quickly I’m like damn does he have someone. Thursday I went ahead and talked to him just casually and he started engaging and talking a lot . It went nice, I thought I was gonna be shy and awkward but talking to him felt like he’s always been a friend. Yesterday we didn’t talk but I just notice him staring so much at me like he walked by and from the c...

How often do you see your SO?

Why hello all I'm wondering for thoes that don't live with your so how often do you guys hang out? Every few days one a weeks? I've been dating this person for about 2 months and we see each other every few days. Mostly have one or 2 nights not hanging out then we hang.

Always give the same energy you receive

Don’t get excited by the minimum effort just because they started to show little affection .. don’t go and make grand gestures in return … just chill and relax .. enjoy it while it last …if it led to something great , if not there are billions of people out there for you , they will never be the last one .. make dating a fun experience not anxious toxic one .. the harder you try in love and dating they more they run away from you .. best things happen on their own Submitted November 21, 2021 at 12:09AM Don’t get excited by the minimum effort just because they started to show little affection .. don’t go and make grand gestures in return … just chill and relax .. enjoy it while it last …if it led to something great , if not there are billions of people out there for you , they will never be the last one .. make dating a fun experience not anxious toxic one .. the harder you try in love and dating they more they run away from you .. best things happen on their own

confused about if it was a date or not

I (23F) matched with someone (24M) (call them X) a few years ago in undergrad on tinder, talked briefly, but then stopped talking to them on the app for reasons i can’t recall (pretty sure it was nerves or because i just started seeing someone somewhat more seriously). had nothing to do with who x is as a person though i’m just shy. fast forward a few years and i find out they’re going to grad school at the same place i am, think about reaching out and apologizing even though it wasn’t that big of a deal but decide against it. a friend of mine here (Y) coincidentally becomes friends with x, and they mention to them that they saw that i was in town. Y messages me and asks if he can give X my phone number and tell him to go ahead. we talk for a couple weeks and get coffee, and talked about maybe going to a brewery or something. i think both of us had a good time but i thought about and i don’t think it was explicitly stated if it was a date or not. on one hand, we had previously matched...

/u/undercovermeteor on Can asexual people still be fascinated/addicted to pornography or sexual fantasies and get off on them?

I think asexuality just means a lack of sexual attraction. While some aces are also sex repulsed, stuff like watching porn to get in the mood, having the odd sexual fantasy and masturbating don’t make you not asexual November 20, 2021 at 11:24PM

/u/Comprehensive_Plan93 on Bruh literally. My mom knows I'm disgusted by sex and never want it EVER. Yet she still thinks I'm gonna have it when I get into a relationship or stuck in the same room with a boy. It's annoying as hell.

Being a teenager is too young to know??? Um, excuse me! I'm pretty damn sure we'd notice that we weren't interested in sex during what is probably the most horny time of most peoples life! November 20, 2021 at 11:09PM

/u/Pusa_Hispida_456 on Shyloh’s officially a character!!! I have to add color but she is definitely a favorite character of mine, I love her!

Her face kind of reminds me of the Nidoran family of Pokémon. November 20, 2021 at 11:07PM
