at some point when i was an impressionable young lad i heard some shit like “men think about sex every 7 seconds” and whether this was intended or not i was left with the impression that this was bad, so i decided to never think about sex
Conversation
anyway that was dumb. i’m gonna think about sex every 7 seconds now as a bit

warming up to the term “neurotic feminism” as a description of the way i turned presumably well-intentioned feminist memes into my own personal mental, emotional, and somatic prison growing up

me and a lot of people i know sure do love ruining our own lives by making up rules about what we aren't allowed to do and then following them straight into a ditch

i also had another rule where i couldn’t sexually fantasize about anyone i knew, which included my girlfriends 😅 it sounds silly but i have had to slowly work my way towards feeling allowed to have sexual fantasies, over the course of the last 5 or so years
Quote Tweet
I promised myself when I was 13 that I would never sexually fantasize about anyone I knew, and I kept that promise for 13 years. In relationships I tried to be a rom-com lead - charming words, big gestures, declarations of love, etc. It sort of worked, but not for long.

I don't think it was a feminist meme, pretty sure it's something from cosmo
