I (22M) started dating a friend of mine (21F). When we were just friends, she would post edits of football players, actors, singers, or fictional characters she found attractive. At the time, I didn't think too much about it because I felt it was fairly normal for girls our age to do that, and I assumed it would stop once we started dating.

A few months ago, she posted an edit of a football player she didn't even know (I know this because she doesn't watch football), and it made me feel bad. I don't consider myself insecure about this kind of thing because I think it's normal for everyone to find celebrities or even regular people attractive, as long as they don't act on those feelings. What I can't understand is why someone would feel the need to post a video whose only purpose is to show how good-looking another person is.

So I talked to her about it. I told her how I felt and asked why she had posted it. She said it was because she liked the edit and thought the player looked good, but she understood how I felt and deleted it.

Yesterday, she asked me if I was okay with her posting an edit of one of our national team's football players. I wasn't completely sure how I felt about it, but I told her I had no problem with it because I thought maybe she liked how he had played during the World Cup. It turned out to be just an edit of him smiling and looking attractive. I didn't like it, but since I had already told her I was okay with it, I let it go.

Later that day, a friend of mine said, "Hey, why is she posting edits of other guys?" That made me feel like my point of view was more valid because it meant I wasn't the only person who found it strange.

The topic came up again, and she asked me what kinds of edits she could post, mentioning people like Jacob Elordi, Justin Bieber, Michael Jackson, and another football player she explicitly said she thought was cute. After talking about it for a while, I told her she's free to post whatever she wants on her social media. She told me she didn't want me to say I was okay with it just to avoid an argument, and I told her that wasn't the case and that she didn't need to worry about it.

Am I wrong for feeling this way? On one hand, I know she loves me, and I know it's just a video. I'm not worried about her leaving me or anything like that. On the other hand, I just can't understand why someone in a relationship would want to publicly post edits of people they find attractive. I wouldn't post videos of girls I think are hot because I would see that as disrespectful to my girlfriend. To me, what she does feels disrespectful, even if that's not her intention.

What do you think?

Kinda embarrassing to ask but I don’t want to ask my friends for obvious reasons. This whole thing started when a girl I like told me she was a fujoshi, so I decided to to read some of her favs so i could talk to her. I never knew this shit would be peak. I lost the girl but kept the yaoi lol

But I also feel bad about it cause I think it’s kinda gay ngl. Is it still gay if I’m not attracted to men irl but like them in 2D? I mean they’re so stylized in anime they might as well be 2D right? Idk why I like it so much. I’ve never been attracted to a man irl EVER. I think it’s because the characters are so stylized, and also people tend to give more depth to male characters and it makes more romantic, plus they have dicks which are awesome. But I’ve never been attracted to a real life dick, is it still gay if it’s only 2D? It’s making me feel like shit ngl I don’t want to be zesty Breh😭🙏

I’m calling out genuinely trashy behavior without being sexist, but just because the person happens to be a guy, they immediately jump to 'misandry.' Why?

I (F), 5'9 met a very cute guy (M 5'2) and am set off to date this Saturday. So since there's a 7 inch difference between us and I AM [much] TALLER I have some worries about dating in general... And sex?🫠🫠🫠

Is it hard(er) to make it work? I suspect it's easier for men taller than their gf/wives... But what about the other way around? Are certain positions like doggy / missionary etc impossible? Because I would love doggy positions but am worried about the impossibility of doing so🫠🫠🫠

Also I'm worried I might get self conscious. I'm super sub / bottom so I am not sure about anything at this point... Still though, this weekend we're having the first date, but I'm curious of your opinion, specifically from those (especially taller womens' POV) who've had experience?

Thanks ☺️

Okay, so I’m definitely no science expert, but I know enough basic physics to know that time dilation is a thing!
In Episode IV, when Han Solo jumps into hyperspace, he casually tells Luke and Obi-Wan they'll reach Alderaan around "0200 hours." They literally crossed half the galaxy in a matter of hours!
In actual physics, if you travel at the speed of light, time slows down for you. If Star Wars followed real-world rules, Luke would jump across the galaxy for a quick afternoon errand, only to come back and realize all his friends died of old age decades ago.
I guess relativity just doesn't exist in a galaxy far, far away! Is there an actual in-universe explanation for why nobody ages during space travel, or did George Lucas just say "screw physics, we have lightsabers"?

I feel like I will never have a boyfriend ever in this life. Never even held hands with a guy. What about me is so disgusting?

I just want to know that there is this option…at least I won’t be dying untouched/disgusted.

HELP! 🛑 I’ve always been with women my whole adult life. However, I want to try men. I’ve always been attracted to them but a certain situation in my early 20s kept me from exploring. I don’t have brothers, so I feel I know nothing besides the basics.

I need a crash course, tips, or resources to help me learn about what to expect, and how to make it enjoyable for the man? I don’t want to have to tell them I don’t know what I’m doing! Lol any help would be appreciated!

coming up on 20 now and have never been flirted with, hit on, approached, anything. these are supposed to be “common” experiences for women, but they have never happened to me, so does that mean something is actually wrong? I’m slim, dont have an ugly face, i try to look put together every day and literally dont leave the house unless i have on makeup and a nice outfit and still, nothing.

I'm constantly finding people on Reddit having the exact same opinions as everyone I talk to IRL.

For example, on the gaming side, it seems to me like Redditors dislike online games and always find a way to criticize them. On all GTA 6 Online themed posts, the top comments with 500+ upvotes talk about how online play with friends is terrible and no one wants to play it.

However, when I go outside and ask people what they are excited about regarding the game, everyone says "GTA Online" just to mess around with friends.

Of course, this is only one example in gaming, but I often find this to be true elsewhere on reddit.

20f my friend is big with girth im nervous cause his size for both piv and giving a blowjob. Cause I can barely fit 2 of my own fingers in me and i have a smaller mouth im scared especially with Piv cause I heard majority bad experiences about womens first time. So my question to the people is advice in general on both blowjobs and getting pass the possible struggles of piv. Also how to make it sloppier during head cause he mentions liking that

hi guys! facial tattoos are a huge part of my culture.
the placements are usually on your forehead, chin, or cheeks with the design being pretty minimalist (lines and dots).
i know a lot of people think face tattoos are unattractive and i agree (to an extent).
but do people view cultural/tribal tattoos differently?
id love to get a cultural tattoo since they have a deep meaning, and ofc because they’re part of my culture but i am scared of it making me unattractive.
what are your opinions on cultural/tribal facial tattoos?

edit:
for all the people worrying about me finding a job i can reassure you that i currently have a stable job and that my line of work doesn’t care about appearance especially because we don’t work with customers! and no this will definitely not be my first tattoo :)

I notice more and more often that a man just grabs his dick and rearranges it as if it's a super normal thing to do. I see it mostly when they are in sportswear or swimwear, but sometimes also just in regular pants out and about. Did this recently become a mainstream socially acceptable thing? I can't remember this being so openly normal when I was younger.

For context I'm from the Netherlands but I also on holiday see men of various Western European backgrounds do it.

I know it’s a huge thing to not want the government or corporations filming us, but is there a key legal/moral difference that distinguishes why we shouldn’t be okay with flock cameras and the like, but are able to be okay with recording other people in public spaces ourselves?

it's should mutually exclusive, if you're demi in either way "demi/ace" or "aro/demi" in that case it would make so sense, is it like "I'm bi lesbian"?
I read that ppl say it's different non romantic attraction, but I can't find any explanation,

Don’t laugh at me plzz .. My boyfriend and I have been together for over a year (M40) (F25) we begun living together very soon, and we have had sex every day. If not, every other day, and our sex life is pretty active up until recently. So context, I LOVE LOVE giving my bf bjs every other day and I’ve never loved giving bjs until him. Even a year later and I still gave him a bj about 3-4x a week, he has never had to ask for it .. I do it willingly.

However, my bf is not much of a munch unfortunately :( when we started dating he would give me oral sometimes but not as often as I’d like and tbh it wasn’t really good .. fast foward 1 year & 1/2 later he doesn’t give me oral unless I ask and it makes me so embarrassed that I have to ask bc Im starting to feel self conscious about me down there.. I try to be as clean as possible and I have a good hygiene routine.

I’ve brought this up to his attention. A couple times periodically about him not going down there on me and he says he will try more. However he does have an ED sometimes since I’ve met him. He has shared with me that he doesn’t go down on me sometimes bc he is scared his ED will come up and he’ll go soft and won’t be able to get it up and I’d get upset.

However, today we got into a big argument because one thing led to the other and he wasn’t trying, and last week he told me he was going to start doing it and hold himself accountable to do it at least three times a week minimum. And I just don’t know what to do. I feel embarrassed and self-conscious. I don’t even give him BJ’s as often anymore (it pains me) because he doesn’t give me oral. So I am not going to give it to him if he isn’t reciprocating.

My girl friends share with me that their bf’s give them oral a few times weekly and it makes me feel so sad my bf doesn’t do it for me :( my past ex’s have done a good job and never had a problem with giving me oral. What should I do? Is there a particular reason he won’t do it.. ? He’s mentioned a while back he hasn’t really gave oral a lot in his experience but idk.

I've noticed that in a lot of discussions about race in the U.S., Asians are often grouped with White people, while Hispanics are sometimes grouped with Black people - I'm curious why that is.

It might sound stupid or childish but my girlfriend used her fingers for the first time and it still hurts me even after a week. I'm kind of scared I might have some kind of infection or she damaged me somehow.

Edit: it doesn't hurt me anymore. Only a bit when Im peeing. My home situation is not good. Ma parents are homophobic and they don't know I have a girlfriend. They wouldn't approve in sex and especially lesbian sex.

Please excuse my male ignorance, just one of those random thoughts.

Seeing as y'all can have multiple orgasms during sex, what is the number and/or how long would a session woukd particularly last based on you're preference?

Again please excuse my male ignorance, im just curious.

Okay this is like actually such a dumb question and I’m ashamed for asking but I am young and dumb so why not.

So right now my stomach hurts and I feel incredibly off and I know it’s dumb but I can’t help but wonder if it’s making out with my girlfriend, or the mozzarella sticks I had before that. This is only the second time I have made out with anybody ever and it happened the first time I made out with my girlfriend too (but I can’t remember if we had Cane‘s before or after that). I am wondering if it’s like anxiety from the kidding? Or just the greasy mozzarella sticks.

I have also found myself feeling pretty gross after kissing. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy it in the moment a lot and I don’t think I am asexual, or aromantic in any way, shape, or form, but is it just the food I'm eating? I know it sounds suuuuper dumb and like there’s a clear answer here, but idk someone help please.
