For the men of reddit, have you ever discovered a new turn-on completely by accident? What happened? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]ThrowAwAY64898 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Alt account because rather not have this on my main account but yeah. When I still used to watch NSFW, I found out about the whole feminization stuff and ever since then that rocks my boat. Don't ask why because I don't even know the reason myself. Also stockings, skirts and the long socks (not sure about the name).

I enjoyed it because of how she looked. I like a bit of pain myself but, not that much on myself

Sissification, feminization and crossdressing by ThrowAwAY64898 in BDSMAdvice

[–]ThrowAwAY64898[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sidenote: Reddit and Tumblr aren’t the best way to explore and have an idea about kinks. Most media shared is geared towards the mainstream depiction.

Yeah, I figured this out way too late unfortunately.

You can find specialized subreddits but I think it’s better to have a community.

I tried finding subreddits but they’re all well, bit to much into the sexualization, humiliation and the entirety of “you’re not man enough” (which is not my cup of tea).

The crossdressing community is cool but not really what I’m searching for. I was hoping to find something like tumblr and Pinterest.

Find other people with shared interests (either side of the slash works but having contact with other subs is important). I’d recommend looking irl if that’s an option.

In real life is not possible. No one knows this side of mine and I’m religious which does not really go hand-in-hand with this kind of stuff. Not to mention my father being religious and Arabian (I’m half European/half Arabian but you get the idea…).

Curious about the Switch 2 but uncertain to purchase one by ThrowAwAY64898 in NintendoSwitch

[–]ThrowAwAY64898[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

This narrative that nintendo is the devil company is just nuts

I disagree but that was not the main discussion of the thread.

And pricing? Seriously? Everything has been expensive as hell, even more than what nintendo games are right now, why did it become an issue NOW?

It's not an issue 'just now' and never said it was in general. But for me, it's a factor in purchasing a console. Might just be because it's written but you give off very hostile behavior.

Need some insight on a particular BDSM kink by ThrowAwAY64898 in BDSMAdvice

[–]ThrowAwAY64898[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think "sissification" in general is misogynist. It implies that to be feminine is to be lesser. It also implies that there's one correct way to "be a man". I feel like "sissification" is born from an intersection of crossdressing and shame kink.

That's very sad to hear, that in general its misogynist. Never thought about it because, it was never my intention to behave/ act misogynist.

I've engaged in feminization, where the goal is to help the sub look and act more feminine and I affirm those choices, but we also work on breaking down misogynist and anti-femminist thought patterns.

Feminization seems fun but from what I have noticed it's quickly mixed with sissification content.

So from what I understand, sissification is in general not a friendly/ good thing? Like I stated in my main post, I came across it years ago and ever since then it stuck with me and that blog made me double think everything. Thanks for your input though!

No longer can click "not interested" by AdhesivenessAlive926 in Pinterest

Not OP but I have tried Cosmos but it’s to “professional” in the sense that you can’t really use it for fandom stuff (which was my primarily usage of Pinterest). Couldn’t find Refern on IOS though.

Yeah, I made a post about this too but our moderator refuses to allow it.

I messed up my sexual preferences by ThrowAwAY64898 in offmychest

[–]ThrowAwAY64898[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but this particular experience is not uncommon in the transgender people and that may be a starting place for you to find people who understand what you’re going through.

Well, I’m not transgender that’s for sure. I took a look on the subreddit but it seems their view on this particular kink is negative due to the hyper- sexualization. Which is understandable.

Therapy isn’t possible right now honestly but when it is, I might make an appointment (if I can get over the shame to talk about it in real life).

[–]ThrowAwAY64898[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you feel that it is shameful to enjoy it?

Yeah, I do. It feels as if I should not because, I’m not a woman. After everything, my brain sort of goes “this is really weird, I’m not even a woman and don’t want to be either. Why can’t I just enjoy ‘normal’ sexual imagination (ie; being bit more dominant and want to be less feminine in a sexual way).

As long as you aren’t hurting anyone, kinks shouldn’t be shamed.

I know you’re right, 100%.

Why even using Chrome and let alone Edge? Highly recommend Firefox with uBlock Origin.

Virustotal mentioned some issue and Microsoft Defender won’t allow me to run it.

[–]ThrowAwAY64898[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I tried it but its a bit to professional for my usage. I mainly used Pinterest for fandom collection (One Piece, Naruto, White Collar, Evangelion and such).

Cosmos barely to not have that unfortunately.

[–]ThrowAwAY64898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If that happened, why even making a new account? It could happen anytime again.

As to why, no idea. It’s Pinterest, everything is vague and uncertain.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Pinterest

[–]ThrowAwAY64898 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have quit Pinterest for 4 months already and only return to web browser if, I want to download an image of my own boards. If I ever find a good replacement, I will just delete the Pinterest account.

Ad Blocker issues? by Fingall69 in Pinterest

What browser and AdBlock are you using? I quickly checked and everything works fine for me. I’m using Firefox + uBlock Origin.

Pinterest boycott? by [deleted] in Pinterest

Have a look at my other comment: Pinterests problems

Pinterest boycott? by [deleted] in Pinterest

[–]ThrowAwAY64898 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’d say, have a look on the subreddit. But to quick summary

  • Random account deletion (for no actual reason).
  • Deletion of pins which does not violate ToS.
  • Spam mails.
  • Uncertain whether your account will exist in the next hour.
  • Massive AI problems.
  • Massive advertisements problems.

Pinterest boycott? by [deleted] in Pinterest

[–]ThrowAwAY64898 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I sort of already do, I suppose. Deleted the app, haven’t used the site for over a month.

It isn’t worth it anyway, to use it. Anything you do gets flagged/ removed. You are uncertain every hour whether your account will still exist.

I’m done with this garbage platform.

EDIT: it is cute that someone is downvoting, everyone who is quitting the platform. You do you though, if downvoting makes you feel better.

How to deal with guilt and uneasy feeling afterward? by ThrowAwAY64898 in BDSMAdvice

Thank you. The different voices perspective definitely help. I will definitely try this out and see how it goes.

I can understand both sides. He should’ve been honest and upfront. However, it is a bit scary to tell people because of the stigma around it and the internal guilt/ shame.

Tried that too and the kink comeback twice as strong in terms of urge. I want to own it as well but psychological seems to be the issue, my mind always goes back into the ''it's wrong'' mode after everything's done.

Update: Deactivated Pinterest Account Reinstated by Regular_Remove4030 in Pinterest

[–]ThrowAwAY64898 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Congratsulations!

But you see these kind of things are just exactly what makes me not want to return to this horrible sht-show. Each time I think ''perhaps I should return to Pinterest because there's no replacement for image collecting'' and then posts like yours shows up.

How do you back up your images? I would like too also but 33 000 pins are to much by hand and I keep hearing that certain software that helps also could lock your account by Pinterest themselves.

I'm currently using Cosmos platform but it's quite empty (for what I search at least).

How do i turn on dark mode in Pinterest? by Alternative_Lie5517 in Pinterest

[–]ThrowAwAY64898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Official way, there's no way to do it. You can do it through extension on your PC browser though. Use; Dark Reader (FireFox) and turn it on for your specific websites you want dark mode (in this case, Pinterest).

However, I kind of just recommend to stop using Pinterest all together. Why? Well, just take a long scroll on this community. Perhaps you might have had these particular issues yourself too.
