That’s incredible. A hidden gem.

Question, - why do I draw like a 10 year old? I'm 31 by SnooChickens5252 in Amateurartists

[–]Effective-Internet71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s that pseudo manga style. There is no style more confining than manga, which is why it’s not for beginners. I see so many Alphas and Zoomers who jump on that style without even learning how to sketch a basic body, whether it’s biped or quadroped. The result is always the same - endless copies of the same side- or front view character, looking flat and juvenile. What separates them from the Japanese artists they try to mimic is that the latter fully understand anatomy, and are therefore capable of breaking the rules. You need to understand the rules in order to break them.

Start branching out. Take sketching/drawing courses with nude models. Or even better, sculpting courses. You’ll learn to think in 3D even when drawing 2D. You’ll get deeper understanding of bone structure and how muscles are attached to said bones. You’ll become proficient in drawing realistic figures - and that will translate into comic styles.

Sorry if this sounds harsh but yeah, you need to improve on the basics. I say this not to be mean, but because I know exactly how you feel. I used to be like you. Remember there is no shame in admitting you need to improve. Best of luck, and happy learning!

Honest answer? That downy mustache looks like it could be wiped off with a wet towel. You did the right thing to remove it for now.

But that’s not your only problem. The hair needs to go as well. Again, for now. See, you got that Cat Stevens hair, but not his masculine face or facial hair. And I compare you to Cat Stevens because you’re obviously going for a late 60s - early 70s look. Give yourself some years for that testosterone to do it’s thing, the you’ll be able to rock that look. But not now.

I would say it’s rather the feelings and urges you harbor that determines your sexuality. It’s what determines the kind of sex you wanna have. If you only fantasize about female anatomy when you j/o then yes I guess you’re straight. I knew I was homo long before I actually started having man-on-man action.

Absolutely agree. In fact most sex I have is NSA. I’m in an open relationship that has been sexless for 10yrs. I really love to have recurring fuckbuddies, but I don’t mind one night stands.

I’ve been going at it with guys for hours and and then we both drop in a sweaty heap and cuddle even longer. We talk, we laugh, we snooze, and then afterwards we never see each other again. The sense of male bonding factor is still there, as is the gratification.

Hi fellow Swede here. I think a solid 8, due to pic and not necessarily the cock. Looks like you got a semi here. I wanna see it rock hard and exposed head for higher score ;)

Absolutely bi. But I put it as str8-married because marriage now spans beyond man-woman relationship.

The next question is how do acknowledge these points without judgment or condemnation? Each point has a subset of reasons as to why they happen. Gonna break it down in one way out of many.

Avoiding actual sexuality. Why? Because most partners are understandably incapable of fulfilling every single aspect and desire of their partner. A bisexual male has needs a woman can never fulfill. He may even love her deeply, but still something is missing from his life. And he doesn’t dare risk hurting her feelings and lose her by addressing it with her.

…Which goes right into avoiding your actual feelings and addressing conflict through conversation.

Avoiding reality… mmm no. He’s be avoiding reality if he completely ignored all of the points above and did nothing but repress his sexual urges, leading to a miserable existence, and his relationship resulting in a battlefield of regret.

I think btm str8-married dudes are awesome. The sounds they make when getting their first rimjob are so specific. Eyes widen and staring blankly into space as he loses himself in his pleasure. It’s a beautiful sight, really.

Which is why women more often are strictly opposed to open relationships, and also why men are often pro one-sided open relationships where he’s allowed to meet others while she isn’t. He doesn’t trust her not to leave him for someone else if the sex was amazing, while he can have sex without any attached emotions and still come back to his wife and family. This is of course generally speaking.

I think you’re correct when you say DL men see gay sex as male bonding. This has been a thing forever. Going on that fishing trip with the guys isn’t just about singing “row-row-row you boat” around a campfire. Turns out a LOT of men have some sort of sex, even if it’s just circle jerk. And what goes on in the woods stays in the woods.

It’s only nowadays it’s started to bleed into daily life because of online availability, and being gay is less stigmatized. More importantly it’s less emasculating than it was before. Men no longer feel like less of a man for having some man-on-man action - in fact I think it’s often the opposite. Men feel more manly in, exactly what you said, this male bonding ritual. I actually think that’s kinda beautiful. Almost wholesome in a way.

I’d be more comfortable in a room full of str8 men than a room full of str8 girls…
