that sounds nice, I can't remember the last time I was warm outside...

where are you from?

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

where are you from?

the great white north aka Canada...

 

[Screwtape2]

Hi Screwey. You disappeared abruptly yesterday, I thought I'd scared you off

Nope.

Screwtape, I say this in all affection, but SERIOUSLY?

YOU are lecturing ME about opening my mind to the possibilities of sex??

YOU HAVE NEVER HAD SEX.

I'm sorry, I've had lots of sex, in lots of places, positions, and with a number of people that I will not share on this site so as to maintain some mystery, and I've had sex while madly in love and it was really nice, and sex with a guy who I was not attracted to but heard he was great and it's the best sex I've ever had. However, the only thing I have ever experienced that is mind bending, a new universe, a different kind of conciousness, and total communion and unity is mushrooms. Good old hallucinagenic mushrooms. (And they are better than sex.)

I don't intend to lecture. I just think there is more to it than you guys are seeing. I wish you guys could experience the world like I see it. There is more there I know it. You are far more experienced but I still believe these things are possible.

Nope.

i wonder if perhaps this difference in perception of sex has to do with temperament? i mean, you know, experience aside.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean?

dude, you slay me...

 

[Screwtape2]

What exactly slays you?

 

[redhotswami]

I'm not sure I understand what you mean?

it's the development researcher inside of me speaking, but i'm referring to the myers-briggs temperament inventory. it sorts personality type depending on our preferences and perceptions. for example:

extroversion/introversion
intuition/sensing
feeling/thinking
perceiving/judging


i'm wondering if perhaps Varitek seeks a sexual experience to satisfy the physical senses, and you are looking for something abstract and symbolic? maybe that's where this clash of ideals comes from?


i could be way off... it's been awhile since i've studied human development. my current job doesn't allow me to put any sort of theory into practice. so i'm perhaps trying to make something out of nothing.

 

[BoMac]

Nope.

I'm trying to figure out what you're saying here. Are you trying to tell me that since I didn't wait to have sex before marriage, and, in fact, have done it casually outside the parameters of a defined relationship, that you somehow are better than I am and are more knowledgeable on the subject?

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

The way you wax poetic about something you have never experienced makes me lol...

You are gonna be so disappointed, trust me on this...

Afternoon, Spitsbergenites.

No. Not at all. I'm simply saying I think there is more to sex, love and romance than people normally think. I don't have the experience but I truly believe there is more to sex than what most people think. I'm not better or smarter than anyone else. That is just how I feel.

 

[Varitek]

But everyone experiences the world differently...you can't really change that...I am just confused as to wear you come up with this stuff (opinions on sex) when you've never experienced it and you mentioned the horrific experiences of that girl.

ah. that's essentially what i was getting at.

I think I'm probably

Introversion
Intuition
Feeling
Perceiving

You could be right.

What is your line of work?

 

[phillyfan26]

I have never had sex, if you guys were wondering.

 

[Varitek]

I agree. At least it is part of the picture.

You aren't missing much, no matter what Screwtape says...

(overshare time: it took me a really long time to have an orgasm after being sexually active. it was so built up in my mind as the be all end all of the human experience that for a while I couldn't believe that what I was experiencing was an orgasm...it just didn't seem good enough)

 

[Screwtape2]

I think it is what happens when the world is cut off and it is just you and your lover that shapes my opinions. The spirit and the flesh are one in an attempt to create palpable love. That is why I think from a romantic point of view. Sex is an experience of oneness.

 

[Varitek]

we know

Not in that sense, but overall, being a permanently single 17 year old ... I am kind of missing some things.

I am just about the opposite of Screwtape so you are probably onto something:

extrovert
wtf is the difference between intuition and sensing?
thinking
probably judging but again not clear on the difference

I do see sex as a way to satisfy the physical senses, also I must admit some satisfaction in the "conquest" / sealing the deal with a very attractive man, it's a fun game to want something and then get it. (not that I do so deceptively, I try to treat people fairly and respectfully and such, but I like saying "he's hot, I want him" and then 5 hours later having him.)

But as I told Screwy yesterday I have had sex in a loving relationship. It was nice, and had something that random/NSA sex doesn't, but angels did not come down from the heavens to serenade us.

There is way to much of a mystique put on sex, especially when you're young... There is a U2 song that comes to mind when I think of my first time:

"Is That All?"

 

[Varitek]

Awww, I didn't have an easy time of it in high school either. College kicks ass. You select a place where other people you are already likely to get along with/be on the same page as have also selected. Good way to clarify the pool.

 

[phillyfan26]

I'd settle for much less right now, elfa.

 

[Varitek]

No. Not at all. I'm simply saying I think there is more to sex, love and romance than people normally think. I don't have the experience but I truly believe there is more to sex than what most people think. I'm not better or smarter than anyone else. That is just how I feel.

HOW DO YOU KNOW THIS?
