Oh - I see what you mean, and I totally agree. Sex without love is just not satisfying for me anymore! There really needs to be some feeling involved, and more than lukewarm 'fondness'

Oh god, I've been a wild child. Yes, I've had cyber sex - only it's just like reading bad porn.

And yes I went through a faze of sleeping with everything that moved, be it man, woman (although thankfully not sheep) but like ghostrider, I think that subconsciously it was more a term of self-abuse more than anything else. [Scarily, why I really identified with S6 of Buffy with her realtionship with Spike]. Also I think it was just simple desperation- wanting to be close with people at a time I felt very alone. And I'm only 21 now, gorram I feel old.

Also Taya and Emmarigby (whom I'm sharing a room with for Serenity 3!!!) I'm soooo over that faze of my life! No worries!! I promise.

But at the same time, now, I'm in a strangely celibate phase of my life. I guess I'm all one thing or all the other. No inbetween. And I don't think that's especially healthy either.

NVGhostrider --- Best of luck with the future meetings.


Tristan--

There were a couple of incidences long ago where I misrepresented emotions in the pursuit of the pleasure of the flesh.
Umm, yeah,....I lied. Not proud. Shamed in fact. It was a big mistake on my part. But it was a decade or so ago and since then hopefully I've grown a little emotionally. Very sure I could never do it again. Almost positive even.

I have had partners I did not "love" exactly, but there was an equal understanding and attraction between us. We did care for each other but Love is too strong a word for what we shared. They still remain good friends with me to this day.

I can separate love from sex, but for me there still has to be spark of something more there.

Shiny! Seems like a consensus so far. Sex=good. Sex+Love=The Way To Go.

Thank you all!

Alright, what's next?

I gotta question for the female BROWNCOATS out there. Do you like the old fashioned approach? I find it difficult to conduct personal buisness unless I present myself in a way that is more akin to a simpler time. Unless people know me very well they do not understand my reason for being honest and straight forward, (especially women folk). In one way I feel a bit emasculated by the female dominated society I feel is developing. In another way I feel very empowered by my ability to be a man and not treat women as mere objects, but as wonderful beings that deserve respct and honor. These things keep women away because they are unfamiliar with a guy that doesn't have to exert their masculine side. I live in a rural/military town where most single guys do this all the time. I guess my question is: Do women really want a sensative guy who actually cares about the feelings of others, or is that an outdated way of thinking?

Missed alot when I was at my parents this weekend it seems. Heres my futile attempt at catching up.

Cybersex - Never really tried it. Dont think it would work since a big part of sex to me is physical contact.

Meeting over the net - Hasnt worked for me atleast. Cant seem to really connect over the net. Also, my brother found his last ex on the net, didnt work at all.

Liking a woman who likes women? - Been there, done that. No problem really. Have had two girlfriends who said they were bisexualls. But one of them seems to think it was all just a fase now. Bit of a trend in Sweden at the moment that all alternativ girls a certain age experiment. Makes it all alot more confusing.

Dating someone like me? - Movieinterested browncoat who likes zombiemovies, romance and snuggles. Hell ya! Not many of those girls out there though ;)

Sex without Love - Been down that road aswell. Didnt have any problem with it. Although it tends to get complicated after a while. But I have to say that sex when your in love is a million times better

Now, did I miss anything?


You can’t stop the Signal.
Keep spreading the word about Firefly!

LOL. I apologize if I my post came off the wrong way, PR. :P Really, I have no trouble at all with anyone's sexual orientation regardless of who they are or what they're into. I've never dated a bisexual girl (haven't really dated all that much anyways, come to think of it.) But I've always got a kick out of my friends that were lesbian/gay/bi. In all seriousness, I don't see that I'd have a problem dating someone that was bi. If it's a healthy relatioship, I don't see how it even would factor in that much. (Other than maybe we'd catch each other checking out the same people :)

About sex without love. Well... I'm a bit more old-fashioned. But not terribly so, I suppose. I feel more comfortable at least waiting awhile in a relationship before getting into that. Getting maybe a tad personal: the little mister doesn't always function too well with someone I'm not comfortable with. Performance anxiety or whatever. There was a couple very drunken nights back in college, though...

Not into one-night stands though. For me, the first time I have sex with someone is always a little awkward. You don't know what the other person likes, etc.

Well, this woman actually wants a sensitive guy who actually cares. Overly macho guys really turn me off. So do people who aren't straightforward. Can't speak for every woman, though.
What female dominated society?
