My life sucked long before internet porn, or the internet itself.
Overexposure to internet porn might be a causal factor in some (younger) men's inability to successfully relate to women sexually; in my case, it's a pre-existing condition.

I'll cop to that. Of all the media I peruse, it's the one I'm most (ahem) intimately acquainted with. At least the stuff that makes it onto the free clips sites.

Don't worry, you're not the only one.
You might want to check out "The Incel Project". It's a stupid acronym, and it's pretty boring (being basically a bunch of guys whining about how they can't get laid) but at least you won't feel so alone in being alone anymore.

I was 35 when I finally lost mine. A woman I'd been securely in the friend-zone with for many years learned (in the course of my whining) that I was indeed a stranger to the ways of the woman. The next time we saw each other, she'd decided that was wrong, and that she was going to do something about it. A two-year,…

Same holds true if it were replaced by dead air, static, a test pattern …

I actually have some experience with the pinning-down thing. It's because she was bucking so hard (in a good way) I had to hold her down to stay on target. We both enjoyed it.

@avclub-99f35ee2a4c051e669b4d9059dda134b:disqus Clearly - but I'm imagining myself in place of the guy she's doing.

Speaking only for myself, as one for whom porn has been my only sexual outlet, and have seen lots of examples of everything being discussed here - if I ever do get an actual woman into my bed, I do -not- expect, or hope, that she's into all that stuff. What I really hope is that she's into kissing, because I enjoyed…

Some of us -do- have absolutely no sexual power over women.
In the sense that women do not want to have sex with us.
Hence, porn.

There's plusses and minuses to both forms.
For well-produced amateur vid, try Homegrown. Though some of their vids are ringers (at least, a few of them I've seen in studio vids) a lot of them are real couples who watched stuff together and decided to give it a try themselves.

Totally agree. I hate hearing "suck it bitch", when what's in my mind is, "you look so lovely with my dick in your mouth!"

And once again, I should have read further down before replying.

I don't like the choking thing either, and it does show up a lot. From what I've seen, they don't compress the windpipe so much as press on the sides, slowing blood flow - similar to a wrestler's or cop's chokehold - and they appear to be very careful about not going too far with it (the pros, at least).

Oh, I've seen it many times since then, and it didn't seem that different from the first time. A cartoon-Chinatown style take on the deliberate destruction of "the best public transportation system in the world" to make way for the freeway - a subject I was already somewhat familiar with. With some 3D-style animation…

I've only done psychedelics a very few times, at very low doses, a very long time ago. (There's a time and a place for everything, and it's called "college".) A few times it was shrooms with some friends who lived at Barrington Hall (back in the '80s - it's even got a Wikipedia article) and walking around Berkeley,…

"Set and setting" is the key - you need to be in safe surroundings with people who do give a shit. If you're going to trip like they were doing.

Yeah, the chase around the apartment here stood in stark contrast, to me at least, from the post-party cleanup scene - there was no roleplay here, nothing sexy about it at all.

Yeah, by the time I make it to the boards, everyone's already said everything, and it takes half the day to read it all - and then there's more!

But while others might react badly to looking into the mirror, Roger is just as casually amused and unflustered as he (almost) always is.
Kind of reminded me of Zaphod's reaction to the Infinite Perspective thingy.

@avclub-1381551339ad8ecfb87a9719aa659716:disqus I like what you said and sorry to be a "grammar nazi" but it's so commonly misused and overlooked I had to say:
