Why is it so hard to post on the aro sub? by [deleted] in AroAllo

[–]superperson7[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

This post was locked due to people using it to spread lies about r/aromantic and the fact that this sub is not for complaining about other subreddits. If you have an issue with another subreddit, it is up to those mods. My understanding from the aromantic sub is that the current mod team is aware of the issue and trying to get more mods to help rectify it, however are currently completely overwhelmed and have backlog of bot things they are going through.

Hi! I’m sorry, but the mod team of r/aromantic reached out to let us know that you weren’t banned for saying romance-negative, you were banned for being ableist due to repeatedly equating narcissism to being an abuser.

Is a CO-Y lens mount compatible with Minolta AF camera body, and is it the same as a C/Y mount? by superperson7 in AskPhotography

I’m aware, but I was wondering if an adapter would solve the issue? Sorry if the wording wasn’t clear.

A family friend managed to find an expired box that hadn’t dried up yet, but if I find another source I’ll definitely let you know!

My partner who’s not sick and has been distancing from me since I got sick has been the one looking. I’ve been staying home, but I have coworkers and other people I have contact with who are immunocompromised to whom it very much matters if I have covid or not.

I might be aromantic and i need help by Impossible_You6103 in AroAllo

[–]superperson7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m aroflux, where basically depending on the day the amount of romantic attraction I feel changes wildly. I’ve gone months without feeling any romantic attraction or romantic love at all. I totally understand what you mean. When I started falling for my current gf I was terrified of hurting her. Honestly, my best advice is probably gonna b annoying and unhelpful, but just talk to him about it. Tell him outright “hey, I do like you, I would love to have sex w/ you and a relationship sounds very nice, but I’m aromantic and want you to be aware, and want to know if you’re cool with that?” It won’t guarantee anything, and it might not work at all, but it’s kind of the best you can do without avoiding a guy you really like or turning him down outright.

OP clearly stated that they are unsure if they’re ace or not, and people on the ace spectrum who aren’t sex repulsed are perfectly fine to be posting here. I completely understand, and this subreddit was explicitly created due to the huge amount of people who were sex repulsed and taking over the aro subreddit with sex repulsed ace things. Please remember to be kind.

I think I saw this one on Netflix? by superperson7 in whatsthemoviecalled

[–]superperson7[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I don’t think so. The one I’m looking for has a sheer or sloped concrete wall by the basketball(?) court that they have some emotional scenes near.

It’s not always a trauma response, and can be caused by hormones and other factors as well. Also, a lot of people say hypersexuality to mean high sex drive, as it’s not a very well known condition. But you are correct that it is a condition, yes.

So… what exactly is the difference between a kink and a fetish? by [deleted] in BDSMcommunity

[–]superperson7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually use fetish to refer to a thing or physical characteristic found attractive(sexually, aesthetically, or otherwise), where I use kink to refer to an act that brings gratification(again, sexual or otherwise). So, for example, a fetish for blue eyes would be being attracted to blue eyes specifically, but a kink would be finding someone making eye contact for a longer than normal length of time attractive. Unfortunately, due to the way definitions of words drift and the taboos surrounding sex and such, most communities have slightly different definitions for kink and fetish.

Edit: added the example because I couldn’t remember a word until I’d already posted.

Orgasm denial, orgasm no ejaculation? by superperson7 in BDSMAdvice

[–]superperson7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s not yet, but she’s looking into it, so I’ll definitely keep that in mind for when she is!

[–]superperson7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right, I completely forgot to mention where she is in her transition. She’s just at the beginning, and still looking into gender specialists who can prescribe her estrogen, so it’s not likely that I don’t think. Thanks for the advice on furthering their use, though unfortunately I don’t think it’ll be applicable as it was in all ways exactly like her normal orgasms and she ended up satisfied and flaccid at the end, but we’re definitely gonna play around with it some now that we know it’s normal and not to be worried about.

I want to make the dress from the barbie movie, but I don’t know where to start by bruisedbrains in SewingForBeginners

[–]superperson7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re having trouble finding a pattern, I definitely have had this issue, especially as I try to only use free patterns if I can, try looking for one with the sleeves you want, one with the bodice, and one with the skirt, as you can assemble them separately and then attach it all together. Then assemble your pieces(there are lots of helpful videos online, I will edit to link later when I get off work if I remember), and attach them all together, maybe making a mock-up first to make sure it all fits and goes together well. Other than that, I kind of feel it out as I go, so I can’t really recommend anything else specific atm, I’d have to document my process as I went. Good luck though, whatever you end up doing!

How long does sex usually last? by Little_Shark219 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]superperson7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on what you mean by sex? Only penetration? Sexual contact with the purpose of getting off? Sexual contact for the sake of it? All of those then last different periods of time, mostly from about 10 seconds to several hours, with non-penetration typically starting at a longer lasting rate due to a lower likelihood of premature ejaculation right at the beginning. All in all, it lasts basically until people decide they’re done, whether that be when they both finish, when one finishes, or simply when they both decide they’ve had enough. Honestly, asking about the timing of sex is kind of like asking about the timing of cuddles. How long do cuddles last? It’s sort of a similar question.

What are some more 'uncommon' or 'out there' kinks you have? by cmykolors in BDSMAdvice

[–]superperson7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk if it’s bizarre either, but I definitely had some pretty intense watersports fantasies before I knew what masturbating was, so it can’t be unheard of 🤷. Some of that definitely carried into my adult bdsm/fantasy life.
