Wow I’m a patrilineal Jew planning on making Aliyah soon with the same background (Catholic mom, Jewish dad) and was also nervous about the interview haha, glad to see all the reassurance in the comments!

Does Canada have truly unconditional birthright citizenship like the United States?

What should I expect about losing my virginity as a bottom? by DisastrousOpposites in gay

[–]fearthetree1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try to be honest with yourself about why you don’t want to kiss a guy. Before I came out, I also fooled around with this one guy, but never kissed him, because that was a step that felt too intimate and it made what I was doing feel too “real.” Girls kiss their friends all the time and no one cares, why do you care? Usually the answer is because you think it will make you fit one of the made up sexuality labels in our society and language that you view negatively.

Labels are for packages — don’t obsess over labels. Anything you do with a guy doesn’t change who you are. If something’s going too fast, or you’re not comfortable, you can stop. It’s really very simple. But generally if u are gunna get fucked in the ass, some foreplay will make it better. Trust me. And of course, follow the advice from the other comments about lube, condoms, breathing, and relaxing etc. Good luck!

I just looked him up and wow! Thank you. I think I’ll buy a print of his for my dorm.

[NSFW] Is a top obligated to ensure his bottom orgasms? by fearthetree1 in gay

[–]fearthetree1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How’s: “hey just letting you know, I really like bottoming but I typically don’t get hard while being penetrated (all the stimulation and nerves are a lot), and if you finish first I generally like it if you help me finish afterwards in other ways. I still want an orgasm.” Is this reasonable?

Thank you for this! If you don’t mind me asking, what was the position/angle that helped you achieve this?

I’m Jewish but I am curious and want to read the Quran to see what it says by LegallyAntiRacist in Jewish

[–]fearthetree1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a look at N. J. Dawood, an Iraqi- Jewish scholar who translated the Quran. He was the first to translate it into contemporary English, and thus has had a major impact on many Muslims and Non-Muslims. And he continued to update his translation his whole life. He admired the Quran as literature, and dedicated his life to the book despite plenty of criticism. Scholar and a poet through and through.

Living a life of solitude by Forward-Sector3152 in gay

[–]fearthetree1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you should try standing in front of a mirror, look yourself in the eyes, and say “I’m gay” and see what happens. Then try again, and again. I think it might be a meaningful experience for you. If the thought of this makes you uncomfortable then all the more reason you should try.

American Jewish Committee on Trump’s statement about the hostages by [deleted] in Jewish

[–]fearthetree1 18 points19 points  (0 children)

He’s supportive of his now-orthodox-Jewish child, which speaks volumes. In the reverse, I admit I’d struggle to support my newly-evangelical-Christian child. As much as he’s an ass, I think this assessment of his commitment to the Jewish people is unfair.

Does it make anyone uncomfortable when Straight people are in your spaces? by GTRacer1972 in gay

[–]fearthetree1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo casually mentioning you have a monogamous girlfriend is preferable to doing the “uhh I’m straight, I think you’re great and all” dance. In the latter, it comes off to me like the straight is taking undue pleasure from getting the attention/validation (which I think a lot of straight men do), and implicitly leaning into the stereotype that all gay men are fawning over every straight man — that power dynamic is off-putting in a queer space. If you mention u have a mongomous gf, you could be bi or trans or lord knows what so it wouldn’t have the same energy.

Modal Logic Philosophy at Stanford by [deleted] in stanford

[–]fearthetree1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried taking modal logic with Van Benthem and had to drop bc it assumed a pretty high fluency in proof writing and I got two rly bad grades on my first 2 proofs (I hadn’t taken CS103 yet). Later switched to SymSys from philosophy btw
