@GuroNeuf @Ayohmiposi_arts Yea totally. I was just seeing people go to the other extreme in the comments, so wanted to provide this angle as well.

[Morgoose @morganon238]

@holodaydream @Ayohmiposi_arts Yea totally. At that point, it needs to be a discussion between the people in the relationship to figure out how to work on it, both individually and together.

[Morgoose @morganon238]

@Sebboxx1 @Ayohmiposi_arts If it’s excessive, yea. A lot of the comments seem to push for hyper-independence in response to this, so I wanted to offer a more neutral comment to people. Relationships require responsibility to each other. And that’s healthy. Everyone goes through insecure times.

@OloriOfOloris Yea it sounds like he would rather start an argument with her when she was feeling off instead of just soothing her. Her bid for reassurance was very polite and he immediately jumped to discounting her bid. Not a good sign for their dynamic.

@X_Bill_Gl I was very traumatized by a boyfriend with bipolar disorder, but he didn’t take managing the disorder seriously. My nervous system is still shot from that relationship. Not something to take lightly, but I get where you’re coming from about the overall stigma.

[Morgoose @morganon238]

@inthehm01 @socialistadri Yea it’s ok. I honestly am ashamed that I immediately believed his story of not knowing what it was when he got it. So dumb! Doing some introspection on why I was susceptible to that.

[Morgoose @morganon238]

@inthehm01 @socialistadri Yea, I can definitely see now that it is ridiculous that those blind spots existed in me and your response is understandable. Working on it

@psykolus Well both men and women find other people’s bodies sexy of course. I think it’s important that we’re careful not to dehumanize though (unless it’s a consensual kink or something)

[Morgoose @morganon238]

@David97768248 @psykolus I suppose we could all start by being introspective about how we view, relate to, and treat those around us.

[Morgoose @morganon238]

@David97768248 @psykolus I think there’s much more subtlety than that lol Sexuality isn’t something that can be perfect. Men and women both experience finding other people’s bodies sexy and we need to be careful around objectification because it can lead to dehumanization

[Morgoose @morganon238]

@David97768248 @psykolus I’m interested in challenging the structure of how we think about objectification and sexuality, not “lecturing men”

[Morgoose @morganon238]

@David97768248 @psykolus I’m trying to have a conversation on an open app, but I’m meeting a wall lol

[Morgoose @morganon238]

@David97768248 @psykolus Well I hope they would so that they can limit stripping people’s humanity for the sake of their own pleasure. No one is entitled to anyone else’s time or attention. At the end of the day, we all have to look at ourselves in the mirror and be ok with the person looking back

[Morgoose @morganon238]

@David97768248 @psykolus Why are they powerless to challenging their own impulses? Isnt that something that men take pride about in other areas of life?

[Morgoose @morganon238]

@David97768248 @psykolus Why can’t they help it?

[Morgoose @morganon238]

@David97768248 @psykolus And it is de-humanizing and does indeed turn into control.

[Morgoose @morganon238]

@David97768248 @psykolus That’s exactly the objectification that women understand men do and know what it feels like to experience.
