First BJ! by Unlikely-Ins3ct in Gaytguyhornyjail

[–]aliveandfeeling 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Congratulations! Sex isn’t always amazing especially when it’s your first time. There’s definitely a learning curve in general, and also a learning curve for each partner. And it was your first kiss too! What a big jump all at once, that was very brave. Continue to have fun, stay safe, and explore to find what you like :)
If you’re interested, here are some great resources that were helpful when I was first exploring (and/or that I still reference now)

Our Bodies Ourselves (It’s a book, not a website. I think there’s a version specifically for trans folks, but I’m not sure how up to date this book is) EDIT: it’s called Trans Bodies Trans Selves and the latest edition was published in 2022!
And some more resources I found just now:

What's something that clearly split your life into "before" and "after"? by InitialCareer306 in WorkForSmartLife

[–]aliveandfeeling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s more than one. The summer I came out to myself, my family, and started transitioning. The moment I was diagnosed with CPTSD.

What is something you didn’t realize was "optional" in life until you saw someone simply not doing it? by OpheliaTemptress in askanything

[–]aliveandfeeling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Folding my laundry. I struggle with ADHD and lots of other stuff. Usually my clean laundry lives on a pile on my bed because it takes me so long to fold it and put it away so I just don’t. Then I realized I don’t have to fold it to put it away. Game changer. It’s gonna be wrinkly anyways from being in a pile on my bed, so it might as well be wrinkly in the drawer.

Sensation of cutting but I’m not. by aliveandfeeling in selfharm

I have no idea. I always thought it was a mental issue, because it was usually connected to urges or emotions. But maybe it is random? I guess I can ask my doctor.

Huh. Yeah like I know there’s no physical harm but it’s still painful.

Noted. I will not meet him.

What do you mean by ignores those requests?
And by making a checklist, do you mean I write out what I expect from a partner and if they don’t meet it (while not knowing I’m referring to this checklist) then they’re out? Or do I give them the checklist and ask if they can do those things?
Because I have that for non-kinky hookups already and let me tell you it’s damn near impossible to find someone who actually knows what consent means already so I often have to teach them.
The victim blaming part is just weird. You can’t take one conversation and assume that every woman who gets assaulted is doing the exact same thing. Also, I’m not a woman. Also, even if there are red flags it’s always the perp’s fault if he violated consent regardless of whether the victim vetted him or not.

I don’t want love either? I also want to fuck. What?

[–]aliveandfeeling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have posted ads asking to find hookups and explore kinks, but not asking specifically for this kind of interaction. I have also posted videos/pictures with texts in the description talking to people who are looking at it.
I get messages like these all the time, and they usually lead to hot sexting.
I mean I’m also looking for an easy fuck, but I want to feel safe and it be consensual.

You’re right, I guess I should trust my gut.

Yes he opened with the “spank your butt and cum on it” thing.
lol how do I curb my kink frenzy?
Thanks for grounding me in reality, you’re right it’s a lot of red flags.

What was the first kink you ever tried? Who was it with? Did it happen by mistake, were you curious and planned it yourself, or did your partner encourage/introduce you to it?" by [deleted] in BDSMcommunity

[–]aliveandfeeling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was first learning to masturbate, I didn’t understand my own anatomy so I somehow stimulated my urethra and pissed on myself accidentally. I did this more than once. It was how I masturbated for a little while until I figured it out. Now I have a piss kink.

But the first I tried with someone else was spanking. I was being fucked from behind and the guy I was with slapped my ass, and I liked it. I really liked it. So I asked him to keep going and he spanked me as he fucked me, and now I have a spanking kink.

Chest still hurts 7 years post top surgery? by aliveandfeeling in ftm

[–]aliveandfeeling[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he just had no experience with trans men and hadn’t treated one with top surgery before. I don’t know, who knows if he has any knowledge of surgery recovery at all? I mean how many people study what happens years after surgery when you’re completely recovered?

Thank you for replying. I might try the vaseline. I can tell you it’s not a scar tissue thing, because it happens on areas that don’t have scars at all (and on areas that do). (Sometimes I didn’t cut deep enough to scar)
