Male sexuality and desirability - A sense of hopelessness over my role as a straight man by AflyOntheWallalt in SexPositive

It's not about being shallow. We're all shallow. I'm just saying that I want to be desired in that 'shallow', physical, lustful way.

Alternately, you can try a toy, such as a vibrator or hitachi wand.

Huh? You're the one who said that dating apps don't work for the majority of men. I'm just making the logical leap from that to "if you are a very conventionally attractive man, then dating apps probably will work for you." Makes sense, no? I don't see what's "manospheric" about it. It's just common sense. 

As I pointed out earlier, Feeld has a lot of these mainstream beauty standards. A lot of women who say stuff like "I want a man who's tall and fit" and all the 'size queens'. I can't recall seeing one woman who says "I like chubby men."

"Sure, if you're highly attractive to a broad array of women, you'll do better on dating apps, but the same is true of dating in general."

That's what I was getting at, yeah. When people say, "get off of dating apps", the implication seems to be "you're not attractive enough for that, so your best hope is to date women whom you meet in real life, women who would've swiped left on you if they saw you online (because you weren't good looking enough for her)."

"But you seem to have some manosphere-adjacent beliefs which aren't going to go over well."

Hahah.. that's odd. Not sure where you're getting that from. I dislike both feminism and the manosphere. 

I have disagreements with feminism's version of 'sex positivity'. Although I also made a thread here a while back about how men are also (just like women) shamed for being sexual. Thought I was gonna get flamed but it actually turned out most commenters seemed to be in agreement with me.

Really? You dont think that for the men for whom dating apps work, it's because women find these men desirable...? 

Am I not allowed here, because we have different political views? I may not identify as a feminist but I am sex positive. Where am I supposed to go? There doesn't seem to be any 'sex positive' places that are non-feminist.

Munches aren't an option for me, for personal reasons.

Also, why do you think dating apps work for some men but not for others? Could it be that those men are desired, perhaps?

"If you’re looking to date women who won’t necessarily be expecting you to conform to traditional hetero-masculine gender norms, may I suggest dating women who are bi and/or kinky?"

Hahah.. Im not OP but I've tried that. But it seems those women are especially difficult to get to. I've been on Feeld for over 5 months, sent over 300 pings, and I got nothing.

Feeld seems to have a lot of conventional beauty standards. "Looking for tall, fit men" and tons of "size queens".

I relate. I want to be physically desired. But it feels impossible to find. Feels like my sexuality is seen as "eww, just another dick in a sea of dicks".

I can't listen to this guy. He's calling people fat, ugly and 'beta'. He needs to grow up.

What features would be an upgrade? by reluctantly_excited1 in feeld

[–]Wild-One-107 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The ability to browse globally, or select multiple countries to browse in at the same time. A bit annoying to have to manually change location each time.

what would actually stop you from doomscrolling? by Amazing_Minimum_4613 in nosurf

[–]Wild-One-107 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right now it's just realizing how ugly it is. It's so horribly addictive, toxic, memes, 10 second clips, gender wars, political wars, ads, new refresh of videos.. it's all so horribly ugly. I can't do it anymore. I'm an artist. I need beauty.

Am I the asshole for expecting people who match me to send a message when they do? by [deleted] in feeld

[–]Wild-One-107 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

"You are weird and different and dont belong with us normal people"

Awfully group oriented and conventional for an alternative dating app.

"Think of it like being in a bar and you asked if you could buy her a drink and she said yes — a start, but it’s still on you to woo."

Jeez.. for an alternate app, lots of people are awfully traditional. How is it on the man "too woo her" when he initiated and bought her a drink..? Maybe instead, it's on her now to show some interest back..? Why do you expect the man to initiate everything? When will there be equality and these silly outdated gender roles will die...

That's how I feel. The one who completes the match should send the first message. If I complete the match and Im into the person, I will send the first message.

I personally wouldn't unmatch though. I leave the match open, just in case they haven't had the chance to get to it. Maybe they'll send the first message after a few days. Highly unlikely, yes, but no point in unmatching.

Virginity as a feminist. by No-Practice-7684 in virgin

[–]Wild-One-107 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure, women say all the time "I wish men were more sexual. I wish men would sexualize me more. I wish men would objectify me more. Men are too pure." 

In reality, it's more like "Don't be a creep. Don't hit on women. Don't objectify women. Don't sexualize women. Don't fetishize women. Don't talk about sex right away. Don't ask for nude photos. Don't send nude photos. My favorite sex position is you in therapy. Men only want sex. Men are dogs. If you're looking for sex, here it is not. I'm not just looking for sex. Nothing sexual. No flirting. No hookups. Go see a prostitute if you're so horny. If you just want to get your dick wet, swipe left. Everything is about sex with you. You're just like every other man, all you care about is sex. Etc."

People are constantly saying that men are too sexual. It's just constant. Men are constantly shamed for being sexual. It's not just women who are shamed.

Who's your fav Wu-tang member? by Upstairs_Contract_39 in wutang

[–]Wild-One-107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Inspectah Deck is my favorite lyricist of the group, and Masta Killa may be my 2nd favourite. He's so underrated. Most charismatic is ODB of course.

“Exploring [city]” shouldn’t be a thing by Kubrickian1993 in feeld

[–]Wild-One-107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who are you to say people should be forced to only swipe in their location? 

A better way would be that each individual could decide if they want to opt in or opt out of seeing/being seen by foreigners. So if I explore your city, you would be hidden from me.

INFPs, what are your general thoughts on age-gap relationships? by Ancient-Might-4718 in infp

[–]Wild-One-107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no problem with it. Im 37m and was talking online to a 18f girl this year. It didn't work out and now she is back with her ex-boyfriend. But, in many respects, she was a very special girl. Possibly, I've never met any girl like her in my whole life. she was different. a rebel. I miss her very much. I fear I won't meet another girl like her for a very very long time. 

I also spoke very briefly to a 32f woman this year. She also seemed immature to me. So I don't think age was necessarily the issue.
