We are not a crisis service. We can't guarantee an immediate response. This does not mean no one cares. If you need to talk to someone at once, you may want to take a look at this directory of Hotline Numbers.

Rules

  1. Absolutely no fat-shaming, skinny-shaming, or shape-shaming.
  2. Be positive about people’s bodies but don’t be fetishistic.
  3. Don’t shame or disparage people for their fitness level.
  4. Do not offer unsolicited criticism.
  5. If you post a selfie, make special care that identifying marks are removed.
  6. No doomposting about your body.

Yeah I grow / don't realize my own print or really care, only time I do care is when it's flopping around a bit(at least when I was a young lad, I thought I was smol not like smol smol but definitely felt like I didn't have ENOUGH peen because toxic masculinity and patriarchy and other incelious comorbidities) Now it's more like ok look, but no touch me ( unless you're a beefy bear man or a nerdy alt chick who can tolerate me and my shenanigans).

I feel that so much. I loved skinny jeans in middle school because I'm trans, but didn't realize why people would laugh at me until years later when I realized that I was not average, but well above average. Nowadays, I'm mostly demi though. I can't even imagine sleeping with someone I'm not intimately connected with unless I'm drunk. I don't really care too much about people looking as long as they're respectful, but no touching unless I love you.

Yeah but I can usually love anyone, unless they got a LOT of stuff going on or it just doesn't click. I feel like it's a mix of demi, aesthetics, and shared hobbies (usually nerd stuff), and if they've got a STRONG sex drive and don't mind my pervy musings, jokes, or exploration. also they need to at least be a lib (and that might be succdem at this point)
