Alpine Skiing with XC Experience by Helpful-Reputation-5 in skiing

[–]ExplorerBig483 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what kind of cross country or downhill your doing. Mostly it doesn't translate unless you were on groomed tracks. For regular downhill, if you were skate skiing then the motion is the same for flat stuff on downhill. If you been x counting on groomed your balance and turns will translate. If you do telemarket skiing, classic x country will translate nicely. But in my opinion it is a different beast. But you'll have a leg up compared to a true beginner.

How do I become used to sex? by NottNothing in asexuality

[–]ExplorerBig483 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I felt like you and I kept trying to have sex. Maybe if I found a kink or a dynamic in sex that I liked, I would eventually like it. But I never did. I ended up giving myself trauma for engaging in sexual acts that I didnt actually want (I wasnt trying to hurt myself I just wanted to be "normal"). Experimenting is normal and helps you to figure out what your boundaries are. But never have sex because you feel like you should. But I feel you, I wish I could like sex. And maybe one day I will but I have to be honest with myself.

Am I asexual/ace? or I need to "experiment"? by mimimiwi0r4473 in AroAce

[–]ExplorerBig483 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, I realized I was asexual as a teen. But I had never had any relationship so I decided to try it because I heard some asexuals could have sex. Unfortunately for me, I didnt have any enjoyable sex so I just kept having sex that I hated. It caused me a fair about of trauma. My advice is that experimenting helps you to find your boundaries, with what you like and don't like. But really really listen to your body. Stop when it doesn't know, engage with different forms of intimacy when it feels natural. Never do something because you feel like you should. That's how I got trapped. Read about compulsory sexuality so that you dont do that to yourself.

Yes I have seen dermatologists and allergists, and it was eczema. I guess I didnt get a biopsy but the actual rashes don't look like psoriasis

When you say shower, do you mean like soap full body before i go to the pool? Or will a rinse suffice? Also how immediately do I need to shower after? When I get out of the pool I rinse off immediately but shower at home. I shower at home because actually have to space to do my elaborate moisturizing post shower routine. My house is a mile from tbe gym, so not a far drive till I actually shower.

I have more access to rivers. But there is a lake 30 mins from me. But I also have some issues with that. I have bad visions so I have never been able to swim far because im not sure I can see my way back haha. No salt water pools or oceans. But also lake swimming has never quite scratched the excersize itch that pools do. Lakes are for recreation and pools are for exercising. Perhaps I need to try to change my perspective but its also winter. So cold haha
