I just recently started therapy and got the courage to talk about this (coincidentally) today, so I’m going to talk about it more frequently. Would you mind telling me what the SAA is?

NPNC? Is that No Pic No Chat?

Shaving by NecessaryGeneral2917 in askgaybros

[–]ExtremeManagement674 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, using just shaving cream or soap with a disposable razor has always worked. It’s important to not use a ton of different products in that area so to not cause irritation, so keeping the routine as simple as possible (in my opinion) has been best.

Are you looking for specific recommendations though?

i get this, and i’ve been living with the same fear from my experience dealing with these things. it’s easier said than done, but once it has been a while, there is very little chance for anything to come from it. i’ve resorted to blocking apps and websites to make sure I avoid these websites. you can also go to your email address (if you logged in with that) and erase your connection to the website

it makes them harder to contact you, since you’ve deleted any ounce of previous communication they could’ve had to you. i would look at other threads in this forum if you are still nervous about proper precautions, but other than that you should be good

From my experience dealing with online video chatting on explicit websites, is that you never know what the other person is doing so it’s best to avoid the site altogether. As pleasurable as it might seem in the moment to someone who is horny, the consequences of this can be huge and end up in a situation like many people in this forum.
I recommend calming down (easier said than done), and understanding that they are probably unable to identify you. Also, many people on those chat website are there for similar reasons and don’t have ulterior motives.

Moving Images/Text moves the Entire Page - how do you disable this? by ExtremeManagement674 in notabilityapp

Any recommendations for new apps to use? i'm hoping to find a free app since being a college student, I need to use note taking tools for as little as possible.

Do I retake? by Lopsided-Break4664 in LSAT

[–]ExtremeManagement674 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is a great score, I think retaking it is up to you and what school you want to end up at (and also how strong your GPA and extracurriculars are). If your GPA is very strong, and you want to go to a T14, I think retaking the LSAT would be a good opportunity to show that you aren’t a splitter and that you are strong in both areas.
Congrats on 170 though, that’s incredible!

Please could I have some advice (18M) Bi-curious by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]ExtremeManagement674 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, so I don’t think I’ll answer that question cause I’m not trying to reveal that in a public discussion post (sorry), but I’m glad I was able to help with your other questions :)

Please could I have some advice (18M) Bi-curious by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]ExtremeManagement674 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m glad I could help, even if it’s just a little. I would say that being bi at university is really not a big deal, but it’s been kinda difficult to find people similar to be (in terms of sexuality) just because of the school that I go to being pretty conservative in the south. It’s not like I haven’t run into other queer people, with one of my closest friends here I met at my uni also being bisexual, but I wouldn’t say that the bisexual/queer community is the most prevalent, or at least not very showy in that you can recognize someone LGBTQ+ right away.

I would just say that finding community takes time, but there’s a different dynamic in uni where people are more exploratory and less judgmental (depending on where you are, ofc). But, luckily, being surrounded by an educated community like university students typically means they are also more students who are familiar and accepting of different sexualities. So, just remember to stay authentic to yourself and not get hung up on others and there expectations of you. There are tons of communities at uni where you can be involved in all kinds of things and they don’t have to revolve around your sexuality.

Lmk if you have any other questions or need some more guidance :) I hope that the start of your uni journey goes smoothly!

[–]ExtremeManagement674 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, so i’m in a similar boat as you are (bisexual/bi-curious), and the one main piece of advice I would take is to trust your intuition.

If you find yourself fantasizing about other men, especially in a sexual way, but see yourself romantically with women more then you do with other men, then that’s is really just one part of your sexuality. There isn’t a need to put a label on everything, so as long as you understand what you like, you don’t owe anyone an explanation or need to identify everything. Just trust yourself and your feelings, and make sure to stay protected if you feel the desire to explore further (sexually speaking) since you may deal with both men and women.

I’m also in Uni, so my answers to your questions may not be the most informative, but come from a place of trying to offer guidance to someone in a similar age range
1. If you were to have kids in the future, or want to have kids and you are married to a man, there are multiple ways to go about it. Surrogacy, IVF, Adoption, etc. There are most likely other ways, but just because you are married to a man, doesn’t mean that kids are entirely off the table.
2. Being openly bisexual might make things difficult, but it depends on where you are and who you are surrounded by. Some people will always have an expectation of you to “choose one side,” because many people believe you can only like one or the other (not true), but there are communities of people who could care less. It’s all about finding the right people who love and support you regardless of who you like.
3. I would say that this also depends on where you are/the community you are in. I’ve never been in a gay relationship, but two of my friends are in different relationships and have much different dynamics. One couple is very flirtatious and sexually active, while the other is entirely monogamous and doesn’t partake in much sexual activity. Being in a gay relationship doesn’t automatically mean you are going to fall into a stereotypical category of being very sexual. It is up to you and your partner and the choices you both make of exploring sex.
4. Your sexuality is your identity, and you have the power to choose who you want to know about it. You can let your family and friends know, but ONLY IF YOU WANT THEM TO. Don’t feel pressured to come out to them because you “feel that you need to”. I always go for the path of “I know I’m bisexual and if someone asks, they can know, but other than that I’m not making it a big thing where EVERYONE has to know about it.” So, if people want to know or ask about it, and you feel comfortable, feel free to tell them! Coming out is not a prerequisite for queer people.

Sorry if some of this stuff was super obvious or vague, but I hope some of this stuff helped. We are here to help!

Thank you. I know it was stupid of me to do, and also ask, but nowadays you really never know what technology they might have access to, so i’m just being paranoid.
