Feel good inc is the craziest thing that can happen to a fourteen year old
aaaaaaaaand post
hi. non penetrative sex is often more intimate. more on this later
okay so.
there's intimacy in exploring ways to make each other feel good that don't fit within widespread frameworks of what the focus of sex is supposed to be (penetration.) there's intimacy in the precision of hands and tongues and teeth. there's intimacy in frotting, scissoring. these ones are kinda obvious.
but there's also intimacy in mutual masturbation. i know how to make myself feel good and you know to make yourself feel good. but we want to do it together. there's intimacy in sexting and phone sex. we're far away but we don't need to touch each other to love each other. there's intimacy in stone tops and stone bottoms. we know we don't have to do anything we aren't comfortable with to be intimate with each other. there's intimacy in roleplay. we trust each other enough to be someone else for a while and still want each other. there's intimacy in sadomasochism. i trust you to hurt me only as much as i want and you trust me to tell you how much i want to be hurt. there's intimacy in hard kink. we can explore these taboos together with minimal shame and fear.
if i trust you and you trust me then what exactly we're doing with our bodies becomes secondary at best. when we ignore what we're "supposed" to be doing, we can do what we want to do.
but as much as this post is about all of that, it's also about comptop. how intimate can penetrative sex really be if your lover is only topping because they're convinced they have to?

SUCCESSION (2018–2023)

see the thing that annoys me a lot about so many self-professed dark fiction enjoyers is the like the. implicit belief that because a romance is predatory or meant to be read as horrifying means that all the tender or caring moments are just for manipulation or some shit. like ok fair im one of those annoying "everything is about love" bitches but just because the love is horror doesn't mean like. the people involved aren't capable of genuine tenderness towards each other lol
pardon the comparison but it feels like the same vein as "if they really love you they shouldn't have abused you" like in theory they shouldn't but alas the reality is that a lot of abusers are genuinely driven by what they think is love. and quite a lot of survivors still love their abusers. just because there was abuse doesn't make the love less real etc etc
going back to this, this is also what kinda bothers me about some people with fucked up ships going "lol i don't ship them because i think they're sweet" like...... the horror doesn't make the love any less sweet. sometimes the sweetness comes from the horror actually. when i ship a fucked up ship it's because i think there is sweetness in the way they're fucked up.

talking to people while holding a beverage is awesome because you don't have to know what to do with your hands and when you don't know what to do with your face you can just take a sip
