I think I'd just never even consider them as a potential partner in that case 🤔

sure, i guess i originally meant sexual partner. would you never have sex with someone where you didnt like each other but presumably were horny at each other?

maybe rationalizing, but i suspect for me arousal has been too tied into with 'serving other people', like sex has been about not caring about my needs and being whatever the other person needs. and 'not liking each other' feels like the polar opposite of that.

it's freedom from guilt or caring, its abandoning the anxieties of trying to make your partner have a good time, or trying to convince them you're having a good time because o no what about hurt feelings, its totally selfish

arousal and mating in captivity both talk about this i think but it's still mostly theoretical for me at this point 🤔

ya i mean my theory is that this is less common for men than women. it would make sense your set of anxieties around sex is different from mine

the deal with me is that like if i felt full permission to be as selfish as i wanted to be i'd just say "hold me tight and literally never let me go" it wouldn't be very sexual

this doesnt feel sexual to me. do you have any sexual desires at all that dont break down into emotional/romantic needs?
