Trying to fuck/trying not to fuck...perfect!! It occurs to me that most of my incessant talk about sex and sexuality during my life fits into a couple of loose categories. Category 1; letting people know my attractions and proclivities so as to attract and find like-minded folks. Category 2; talking about MY sex and sexuality and, more broadly, sex and sexuality in general as a process of owning who I am and casting off shame. In many cases in the past this took the dangerous form of measuring my worth against people's reactions to me.

I still talk a great deal about sex and sexuality. It's super fascinating and deep how complicated and unique are the things that turn us on...and off.

I agree...it doesn't matter the gender, genitals or style of dress of anyone we find attractive. It's just an aspect of being human. Religions, cultures and their power structures feel somehow threatened by humans experiencing the pleasure of which we are all capable. I aspire to keep trying to fuck...
