Believe it or not. People like you make the best therapists. When you've walked through bullshit you usually become less tolerant of it. One of the best therapists I've ever had was a therapist by day and a powerlifter by night. And you've found your niche' sometimes, you gotta shake the table.
I can definitely see that being the case. Yeah, by the second year in the military, I was done with everybody, lmfao. So much so, my superior - heavy eye rolls, had me thrown into a psychiatric ward over an extended holiday saying I was an alcoholic because I had a glass of wine every time with dinner - let's not talk about how much people actually drink in the military. By the time I left, all the nurses knew I was right about it being in retaliation because they did not like what I had to say. You do not call somebody back to work the day before a 4-day weekend starts when they are going to pick up their impounded vehicle to then say you are worried about them because they ain't as overtly nice (=breaking yo back) as they used to be anymore.... 0.0 bish
Also, I'd be remiss by not saying this, you (checks out pics) are gorgeously delicious. ❤
:) Thank you. I must admit, I laughed when I saw this as, even now and being a little high, I still have a somewhat strained relationship with my body due to trauma. Definitely brought a smile for the day. :)

sexual activities you'd like to try at least once and why
i've never been in love. i've always wondered what sex would be like with someone you're head-over-feet in love with. i see mind blowing sex all the time in movies (read: porn). i've rarely experienced that. i wonder if it's because i've never had an intense emotional attachment with a person i'm with. or is it because of the religious trauma i grew up with, constantly telling me that homosexuality is wrong? or is it because getting addicted to porn has given me unrealistic expectations of sex? more than likely its all of the above.

Fetishes - where do you think yours come from, if you have any
i have a thing for men's nipples. i want to kiss them and squeeze them and rub them and bite them and lick them and tease them all day and all night long. i don't care what shape or color they are. honestly, i get more aroused looking at a guys nipples than i do cock, balls or ass. no idea where this fetish originated from. makes me wonder if my mom breastfed me too much or too little as a child lol.

choice in underwear and why.
underwear has never really been my "thing" in the sense that, i don't really get much from the atheistic appeal of underwear, whether wearing it myself or seeing it on other guys. as long as i'm comfortable, then i don't care how they look. comfortable to me is something not tight. i don't like my junk constantly pressed up against my body. i like to be loose and free.

so, with that being said... i came across this meme just now, and i literally laughed out loud. if i'm wearing underwear, then often times they look like this lol

i do have some jocks that i wear every now and then for "special occasions".

Unfortunately, people (some, not all) can't deal with truth. It sounds like they had the issues not you. And you're welcome, on your picture comments. I know a beautiful thang. When I see it. Believe me, I have my days too but I think you're worth it.

I can relate to this. I've never been in love either. I've had infatuations but nothing serious. Same with sex. I've never had awesome, mind blowing sex.

Alright, my turn! And yes, I am a little bit up there thanks to my bubbler Mr. D. Camo, featured below, so bare with me please, lol. This will be lengthy.

Fetishes - where do you think yours come from, if you have any

Roleplay/uniforms; probably porn and being on the asexual spectrum, read aegosexual and demisexual. Some degree of voyeurism, perhaps if I have formed an emotional connection with watching a particular grouping. Also oral, though do not like cum. I literally just like playing with dicks, so being mushroomed, slapped around by a dick, etc. Though probably not necessarily at that level, I consider my desire for horseplaying/lounging nude w/other guys a fetish at this point as I missed out on having close male relationships young, so have never really been uninhibited w/other guys. Strip Poker too; its the undressing as a fun punishment.

Sexual activities you'd like to try at least once and why

Bottoming for a big-dicked little person/topping a bound jock/dominant top; definitely a power control thing. Threesome and DP, all roles; my switchy tendency fulfilled with min no. of people. Topping a guy sucking himself off; closest to the "Holy Grail" I'll ever get, though most who can do not speaking highly of it. The idea still persists, however, so remains untarnished as a fantasy, probably never an actuality tho. Once I find a tantric sex partner, I think that will become the new norm for me.

Music during sex?

Theoretically, yes. However, I associate music with dance, and both of those with pleasure, but not necessarily sex (see last comment). If part of roleplay, like being a goth rocker or cheering in the background as an opposing quarterback in a jock/jock scenario; but as far as just during sex, that kinda requires a more intimate relationship for me that I have not yet reached with anybody.

TV shows that had the greatest impact on how you envisioned/envision your life/etc.

I grew up on old tv, so Cheers, Amen, Three's Company, my favorite Happy Days (Fonzie and Richie, yum), etc., but That 70's show, Friends, and X-Files had the biggest effect. I imagined my HS days would be like the 70's show, my college life to be similar to Friends, and life thereafter like X-Files. Despite a hate/hate relationship with the federal anything, I would so run such a department like X-Files. And to some degree, I still want to create my own Mystery Gang (Scooby Doo). I love visiting supposedly haunted locations and ghost cities, really want to have a mystery dinner, and wished I had my own Midnight Society (Are You Afraid of the Dark) growing up.

Top 3 favorited porn stars, if you have any:

Hmm, I've never really had a ranking, but, and in no particular order, the names that come to mind, and sorry more than 3, are Python, Red, June, Tiger Tyson, Bobby Blake and Cliff Jensen; pretty much anything with them is sure to get the job done.

Choice in underwear and why.

Hmm, forgot to add this to the list of fetishes, but will just keep it this way as it, my longest lasting fetish, does not really reach that level anymore since I realized I was a nudist in 2018. Before then, friends were surprised when I moved that my underwear collection used to take up two military duffels, and I do mean the larger duffels. I would choose, now, jocks, "ranger panties", briefs, and sometimes trunks, for the support and bulge. Trunks used to be my favorite, but now no longer a distance runner (and a nudist), they often times feel constrictive. For briefs, I prefer the hero underoos, more of a like Saturday lazy day attire. Silkies just because of how they feel and the military uniform fetish. But, if not for sweating a lot, liking how jocks and briefs bulge, and drawing unnecessary attention to myself like in shorts, I probably would just go commando.

A destination you would want to go to for whatever reason

Italy for the wine, culture and to buy a villa, Greek for the food and honestly a couple of sexy daddies - they kinda are on the top of the list for me in that department, and Costa Rica because of its biodiversity; I can reside near the Volcano to be in a slightly cooler location year-round, be able to visit the rain forest whenever because I love the rain, preferably warmer, and still visit the beach, maybe catch myself a surfer. Honestly, if there was a place that had fall temps year round, that's my ultimate destination! My ultimate destination is much like my sex life, in fantasy alone, lmao.

What you learned about yourself through the lens of your sexual position

As a bottom, I learned it is not so much that I am submissive, rather that I just like to please, and saw bottoming as the easiest way to accomplish that; that I like to be in control as a bottom, and in such a capacity, prefer a longer session of essentially edging the guy on to prolong the pleasing; that my being gay is largely due to my fetishization of masculinity and the male form and liking to play with other guy's dicks - licking, slapping myself with them, etc., though not anal penetration; that I was a switch as I did not like to simply stick to bottom, though it took an even shorter time to realize I wasn't a traditional top. Mentally, I would fall more as a versatile bottom, though my preference for most of my 20s, especially the mid to latter has been versatile top. Essentially, if I couldn't top a guy, I usually would not bottom for him. Ultimately, I learned that I am really sensual - whereas guys that wanted me to top wanted me to be rough; love, love, love foreplay and roleplay - strip me down, strap me to a chair, and interrogate me by slapping dick all in my face, and that sex for me is about the build-up and energy exchange vs an orgasm. This is likely affected by my low dopamine levels and reward deficiency, so doing a good job at something, making that promotion, or even an orgasm does not trigger those happy good feelings like it does for a majority of guys.

Your journey with your own masculinity(/femininity)

Astrologically, I lean heavily feminine; as I did as a child, so much so, my mother tried her best to toughen me up. For most of my life, I identified so much with femininity that I never really saw my masculine side, and a major reason I fetishized masculinity and the male form early. But in my twenties, I started to realize that because I am a "lone wolf" type, introverted, do not like messy drama, and "black", that a lot of people perceived me as masculine, and it was then I was able to start to see my own masculinity. I now see myself as more masculine than feminine, but am still working on how I balance the two energies. For instance, I am a very caring empath especially toward children, but keeping to myself as a form of protection growing up having to defend my every action and be prepared for attacks, I tend to lean masculine a lot more than I do into my femininity.

What you look for or want in a guy/partner

If there is ever a day I would be looking, a guy with goals, self-awareness, and humor. He has to be sensual, caring, and nurturing. Some higher level of maturity is required. Though I am a sapiosexual, he does not have to be most intelligent guy in the room. "Common sense" goes a long way. Ultimately, I don't want him to be willfully ignorant. If he can be communicative, hold his own in a conversation and not be overly rigid in his beliefs to a fault, he is already doing a 100, lol. Though not a requirement, I would prefer him to be poly, not to be confused with being in an open relationship. Honestly, I feel the best setup for me would be a poly relationship with four other guys. Even if the other four guys enjoy anal penetration, I do not mind partaking as long as my sexual needs are met as well.

Something you are currently working on - self improvement

Taking care of myself mind/body/spirit, because honestly, who will, even more importantly, if I was not myself. Many men already struggle with taking care of themselves let alone others. This means not overworking myself as a means to validate my worthiness to others and myself to be loved. Most people in my life have loved what I did or could provide for them, not me. The need to be perfect and never fail - not that I have not many times, has always been tied to my self-worth and how much I loved myself. This is even more important now due to all the injuries I have suffered as a result of trauma. Even now, I approach burn out being in my second program this year - a year that I was on hiatus from school, in which I already will not receive the complete graduation honors as I am not doing the job career search portion. I only joined the program to learn, and despite having aced every assignment I've turned in, almost all of them with extra credit, the fact it may not be best for me to complete the coursework before the end of the course has me feeling some type of way. So, I am still in the process of learning when enough is enough work, how to time to actually relax and slow down to enjoy the roses, and loving myself regardless of what I do, because it is love of self, not love of what I do.

See more

When it comes to sex with other guys, I think of it as transactional versus a pleasure, a lot of which deals with porn, gay culture, and many guys prizing "acting" male vs simply being male, which I see a lot of. As noted on earlier by another, I feel that men by large use sex to validate their worthiness. It is a more a compulsion, a tool to numb rather than to genuinely share pleasure. So for me, sure, in some situations I would like to be made to body worship, or tie a guy up and play with him, etc., but I am not doing that for somebody simply because they possess a good body or have a nice dick; many guys do. There has to be a compelling interest as in, first and foremost, I like you as a person, and this is why I do not care for the BBC stereotype. This is why when some have approached me talking about my dick, I have told them to order a big black dildo instead because it is much more likely to fulfill their fantasy, that idea, than I am. Because there is no interest in me, you could literally do that with anybody else or thing that fits the criteria. Do not waste my time, because it is not like my pleasure is being sought. Instead, my desire for foreplay, sensuality, etc., would be met by a majority of guys as problematic.

October, my favorite time of the year approaches. Anybody have anything fun (and gay) planned? Personally, taking to the road for a month trip exploring some ghost towns (and taking pictures of me doing so nude for my TN), visiting a friend for a little bit, and maybe two or three activities - a paranormal investigation, for instance. As far as gay, considering going back to a gay adult entertainment club I visited when I was in the area last.

I plan to work as it is my 'busy month' and I plan to cook and bake. As I LOVE this time of year. I'm going to Austin next month.

Hello all of you.
Greetings from Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Nice thread, profound topics. Thank you for sharing.

What I want to share with you is 'that issue' I call 'that Black Thing!'
With 'that Black Thing!' I mean that thing many black men have when we black men comes across each other on the streets, in a restaurant, a bar, disco etc.
For example, looking the other way, looking angry at you, Not saying 'hi', 'hello' or something else in that direction, when passing each other.
I do Not know if it is insecurity, angriness, inferiority complex, religion, ... you name it.
One thing I do know is that it is something very sad.

Black men that are not in the position to start a serious relationship with other black men, but will take, in a blink of an eye, white men between their legs, jump easily with white men in bed.
First I thought that it were issues only between us European black men. But I have experienced such 'issues' as well when encountering black men from the U.S.A.

To understand this very sad 'Black Thing!', I do experience with many black brothers, I, as a historian who is specialised in colonialism in global context, went to analyse and so came to the conclusion that the nearly 400 years old colonial era, with its slave trade, slavery, oppression, exploitation and humiliation of West African people, has left deep wounds and pains in our genes, that is going from one generation to another.
Traumas that that has turned into not accepting but rejecting our own black brothers while falling gracefully in the arms of white men that continue to use us as their exotic and erotic products.

interesting, i rarely ever encountered this fro other black men. in fact, it's usually the opposite, when I'm out in public, usually other black men will acknowledge me when passing by.

Hmm. I can't say that I have experienced this much, especially as I got older. But a major consideration is that I have usually been in places where I am one of the few black people there period, so there is at least the acknowledgement.

Yeah for sure. Especially if you aren't the "typical american black guy" black guys treat you like "oh you're not one of US". which is crazy because I've seen so many black dudes accept white dudes who ... you know... "act black".

I also notice when I'm in gay spaces where it's a lot of white dudes and not many black dudes... it's almost like a competition. It totally shouldn't be.

I have to say though, I've not experienced it that much in the last 5 years or so, so maybe things are changing.

are y'all gonna watch BROS this weekend?
I like Billy Eichner, and I wanted to support but the more footage I see of the movie I feel like it's gonna be a "white centric" gay movie which will probably piss me off.
(like... from the previews it seems like he has POC characters in there specifically to JUDGE. there's a black and asian couple that is in a throuple and he judges that. and there's another part where he's having sex with an indian guy and he's judging that guys "weird" sexual turn ons... you get where I'm going here?)
PLUS i saw this extended trailer and Eichner's character monologues and it was SUPER corny to me.
I might still go and support but at this moment I'm kinda over it.

but i'm just curious how you all feel about it.

Well, a number of factors aside, no. It's absolutely going to be a "white centric" gay movie. Chances are, the POCs in the story are going to be over the top, a bit stereotypical - quite sure dick size will find its way in there for at least one of the POC characters, and there simply for diversity, especially since it has that kinda corny feel to it a bit. I could go on, but I don't want to seem jaded or unnecessarily dog it especially before being told by somebody else about it and eventually watching it like two years from now. I do love the concept, but, it's just like eye roll, lol. Maybe I'll see it at some point, but at least right now, it's a no.

I have black friends who went to see it and they said it was pretty good and hilarious,the previews you saw is what the movie pokes fun at especially stereotypes within the community,these were the same friends who saw a preview of it during the woman king and they were like "uh.....not another one",one of them was skeptical and decided to go see it and he surprisingly liked it,then he dragged his bf and some others and they said it was literally hilarious. I'm not gonna see it though because of some personal reasons one of which being not a fan of rom-com or romantic movies in general no matter the race, sexuality or what-not (still haven't seen Titanic or B-boy Blues)

I didn't know about it but now that I do I will probably check it out for purpose of critique. I can already tell by you guys reaction to the trailers that it is expected to be something typical for films centering on LGBTQ. I suspect a lot of tokenism, cringy fetishizing comments, stereotypes, etc. I hope that isn't the case but I guess I'll see. I'm a bit fascinated by narratives that are promoted in the media as it relates to black people and more specifically black men.

I'll throw another topic into the group. Would love to know what you guys felt about the Dahmer movie on Netflix. Did Dahmer have a fetish for black men or were they just more convenient for his sick desire to dissect and cannibalize. Dahmer didn't grow up around black people so I find it strange that his attraction would be for black men and other POC. I feel that he knew that he could get away with his crimes if they were against black men. My heart goes out to those families who have to relive this bs because the movie is buzzing all over social media.

Same. I absolutely cannot stand rom coms. When the teaser trailer was first released, I thought it like okay. But when I watched the full length trailer and realized that it's a rom com, nope.

I'll throw another topic into the group. Would love to know what you guys felt about the Dahmer movie on Netflix. Did Dahmer have a fetish for black men or were they just more convenient for his sick desire to dissect and cannibalize. Dahmer didn't grow up around black people so I find it strange that his attraction would be for black men and other POC. I feel that he knew that he could get away with his crimes if they were against black men. My heart goes out to those families who have to relive this bs because the movie is buzzing all over social media.
i thought, from a production stand point, it was done very well. i loved the acting from the main cast, including neicy nash, richard jenkins and of course evan peters.

that's a very interesting question. i always felt like he just had a thing for people of color. i never thought that maybe he picked them simply out of convenience. maybe it was a bit of both?

Haven't watched it yet, not necessarily in a rush tho because outside of money, I do not understand the purpose for yet another Dahmer movie. I'm into the darker aspects of life. Not only have I watched easily over 10k horror movies, I have watched pretty much every serial killer documentary I have found to include those on Dahmer.

Honestly, it could potentially be both, though, I hold my breath on the former. Dahmer was an eccentric kid almost right from the jump and probably began being ostracized young by his white peers, so his sights would have been on guys easily accessible and more comfortable with expressing the darker and seedier aspects of sexuality, which yes, did not preclude white men whom a small few of his victims were, but did increase the likelihood of them being POC.

I do not think it was necessarily a race thing, as in he felt superior to black people. If anything, if he could think outside of his mental ailments, he would have probably felt like he was ostracized much like them, and would have used his whiteness as sexual appeal. Many other white gay men would have probably found him to be subpar at best as he would not have fit in their circles, making his chances with them much slimmer, as well as much more noticeable if they disappeared.

I would say yes and no. POC men expressing deviant sexual behavior were more likely to be estranged from family than their white counterparts. The fact that he was targeting gay men, not only as a result of not being able to deal with his sexuality, was enough in itself to get away with his crimes. The fact there were POC gay men, made it that much easier, as they were much more likely to be loners or have only one person that was in their inner circle per se. It was more an accessibility thing in my opinion. Plus, how easy would it have been for him to do this in a white neighborhood? More strategic planning and convenience in my opinion then fetishizing race, though he absolutely could have been doing both.
