@Kanye-Qwest said in Sexuality: IC and OOC:
some women absolutely do. Some people can't read a room. Some people really like fashion.
This is a fair conclusion.
I am biased.
I hate everyone.

@surreality yeah, just saying that I think that's a different facet of being an ass. I had some lady on a fading suns game lose her shit on me about how I was stupid and racist obviously because I rped that my character was bilingual from her childhood days and how I dare rp about something that was so presumptive and incorrect. She was linguist and knew how those things worked and her kids were biracial/cultural and weren't bilingual. I wasnt playing it right.
She was an obnoxious dick. About a lot of other things apparently.

"Oh, you just haven't met the right person; have you tried online dating?" "Oh, everyone loves sex. There's just something chemically wrong with your libido; you should look into medication to correct that!." "You're just afraid to try it; trust me, I promise you'd love it if you just gave it more of a chance."
Oh so very familiar! Do you also get the 'you must have been traumatised as a child!' one?
-
@Sparks people can be so gross. But yeah, while it has gotten better about some things, there are so many people obsessed about what other people are or arent doing in their interpersonal life, real or if. Even if you kind of expect it to at some point, when someone does that it just feels so yuck.

Not as often, but yes. More often it's "it might be in your head; have you thought about seeing a therapist?"

My partner saw one, actually. It didn't really change anything.
We're still together, even though I'm a raging slut. She's gotten used to it, and sort of rolls her eyes. I could rail about how I sometimes feel like I've lost the prime of my sexual years, but frankly I've gotten very comfortable not having the pressure to perform with her.
I accept things readily, which might be why I gravitate towards the Lancea et Sanctum consistently.

@surreality said in Sexuality: IC and OOC:
I'm describing guys I have personally known who talk about their wokefulness, how they are 'not like all those other guys', and how they play a lesbian 'right'.
Spoiler alert: they don't.
Personally I don't even care just how right (or wrong) they are portrayed since... well,lots of things are roleplayed badly. Unless it's really offensive I wouldn't care since it's none of my business.
What is my business is how they are likely to respond when things don't go their way, when not enough attention is catered for whatever their agenda is supposed to serve or of course when bad things happen to their characters and they choose to see a narrative that wasn't there.
- He who takes offense when not intended is a fool. He who takes offense when intended is a greater fool.
-
@Arkandel that is where I am too but only because I have realized that they wouldn't listen even if I tried to explain why what they were doing was a bit twingy. And honestly why bother spending time where I actually get to RP, time that is precious to me, trying to convince the unconvincable for....what purpose? I wont enjoy their company, likely, and they wont enjoy mine or care about its absence.
-
I especially enjoy how bent out of shape dude-playing-ladies get when you try to explain women's bodies just don't work that way.
Like, c'mon, ovary up and learn something. You'll RP it better next time and it'll be a better experience for everyone. Shit, maybe you'll become a better sexual partner IRL.
...you might even stop trying to 'hit her cervix' the next time you're playing a dude on a game.
Saying the quiet parts out loud since 1996.

@Auspice I once deeply offended someone by laughing when they posed penetrating someone's cervix. He named like 4 other pcs who said they loved it when a man did that. Oooookay, mister matchstick diameter cock!
Also dont go meet someone your first day on grid at the family mansion room that has a hot tub in it.

And I'd be willing to bet every single one of those other PCs were played by a guy who also doesn't know how the female anatomy works. Or by women who just didn't wanna hurt his feefees.

@Auspice that thought did cross my mind. Or he was lying. He was one of the stupider players I've come across though. Yay for first day in the TR vamp sphere. Sheesh.

Maybe I am just Cross., but that sounds like a very familiar family mansion...but then again I am sure family mansions with hot tubs in them are commonplace so I am probably way off base.
-
@Alamias yup!
-
@mietze Now I wonder who that was...
-
@Alamias I don't remember his name but he was the guy who also had a vamp PC wife. They would open up scenes with them fucking each other or NPCs randomly. I remember his name was really stupid too. She actually seemed nice on her own but was just really quiet.
-
I am pretty sure that the family head at the time killed him at some point when his stupidity escalated.
-
@mietze Now I am really curious. I wish TR's wiki was still around so I could research...lol.
-
@Alamias we did have a lot of real interesting people in that family didnt we?
-
@mietze I was only marginally tied to the family via my sire, but yeah, the Krosses were unique. Some really good people and RPers, some on the other end of the spectrum.
Now I will shut up and apologize for derailing the topic. Back to your regularly scheduled posts.
