my 2 cents
Date: 2004-05-12 08:13 am (UTC)Funny, I was just thinking this exact thought. Its mostly your openness and non-judgmental attitude that gives you your sexual label. Everybody seems to come at this from their own angle, for me, talking about this is a novel and liberating experience.
In the NPR interview about the man who used to be a woman, he talks about how startling it was to be completely consumed w/ sexual thoughts after the testosterone injections, and how he needed to re-create a his filter for verbalizing his internal monologue... because he was offending people. I only bring this up, because for us males, sex pretty much takes up 75 to 90 percent of the internal monologue. Having a forum to verbalize this monologue w/ trusted friends w/o being judged and w/o offending (or worrying about offending) feels so much healthier than just keeping it all inside (like most of us tend to do... because we've learned to filter). Your openness just encourages a nice healthy outlet... and we tend to take notice and appreciate (this is where your reputation comes from). Thanks.
