(no subject)
Have just skimmed my flist for the first time today and it appears that YOU LOSERS ARE NOT PIMPING MY LIZARD BRAIN CONFESSIONAL. Humph.
Anyway, I do see that estrella30 is making plaintive noises about why there is not more SPN fic involving the Winchester brothers going down on girls. The first things that came to mind for me were Mona's smokin' hot Sam/Jess PWP and uh, half the stories *I've* written. But I am considering scouring my del.icio.us links and maybe making a tag for that.
In other dirty news, yesterday someone linked me to this Anonymous Kink Meme from a couple years back and I think it may be the most interesting thing I have read in awhile. I mean, the things we keep secret, even in this lalala "sexually liberated" community that traffics in fantasy or whatever. And all the makeshift vibrators! Wow, people are really CREATIVE about getting themselves off. I was kind of also surprised to see that it seemed like the biggest SHAME for a lot of people was being an adult virgin. Interesting. Honestly, that is certainly not something I would judge someone else about it - but the concept does seem very *foreign* to me personally. Random, but I have this friend who was a virgin into our mid-twenties and we had this conversation once where I had what felt like a revelation to me about how I felt inexperienced about what she had experienced because I basically lost my virginity as soon as I knew what that was. Um. And then proceeded to spend my teenage years overly-focused on my sexual relationships. I think I probably could have learned a lot about myself sexually and otherwise if I *hadn't* been doing that. I mean I'm single now for the longest stretch ever since puberty and I feel like I'm learning *so much*.
I just find that with every single conversation I get into about sex with anyone, in real life and online, I am more and more struck by how v. different we all are and how much of ourselves - emotionally and psychically - we've got wrapped up in it.
Platitudes, I know.
ETA: And in fanfic terms, there seems to be a lot of shame involved in reading smutty "all human AUs." Huh. Does that mean people are ashamed about reading porn that is uh, porn for the sake of being porn?
