Why am I here? An answer to an often asked question.

Why am I here? An answer to an often asked question.


This comes after reading a couple of other blogs: Why are you here & The next sexual revolution (sorry .... I know I should include the poster's names)

First I need to tell you why I joined to begin with. I thought joining this site would offer me the opportunity to freely explore my sexuality and some of my fantasies. I believed that I could talk to and meet more open-minded people here than on regular dating sites.

After a few months, I realized that there were some great people on this site. Intelligent and open-minded. And the few experiences I've had led me to discover things about myself that I was unaware of previously. In many ways, being here opened up a whole new world to me. And it has made me even more open-minded and accepting of others. And at this stage of my life, it has also been incredibly good for my ego to be still seen as desirable and attractive.

But I have also discovered some down sides. There are dishonest people here as there are anywhere. Many aren't as open-minded as they profess to be or think they are. Double standards between men and women still exist ...even here.

Why do I stay? I think it's entirely possible that I could meet the 'right' person...someone who has the same mindset as I do about sex. Ultimately, I'd like to be in a relationship (although not necessarily the conventional kind) and share experiences with a partner. I also stay because I see an opportunity to raise awareness about women and their sexuality; that women are as sexual as men. There are fewer women than men on this site not because 'nice' girls don't like sex but because society has told them that they shouldn't. Or at least that they shouldn't be too vocal about it.

And women have learned that exhibiting their sexuality can bring harm to them. So the majority don’t. Think about it.... (this applies to heterosexuals).... the worst fear for a man is that a woman might ridicule his sexuality but the worst fear for a woman.....is that she’ll be brutalized or even killed for hers.

Theres always a catch to anything thats this much fun and plenty liars here!
I very recently changed my mind on the possibility of finding THE 1 here
Im sure theres plenty willing its just to find whos qualified !! It'll happen Nothing thats for you will pass you as they say !

Think its a good thing youre trying to do raising awareness about women and their sexuality, hate to admit it but there are many unfounded stigmas and misconceptions about !!
Picturing you as a sexy caped crusader here doing battle for all woman kind !
Have to say, the Superhero picture of you in my head is quite sexy indeed !

Late to the game but... have you read "Even Cowgirls Get the Blues"? By Tom Robbins? Will empower you and make you laugh your ass off, too.

I hope you are right about a lot of this and fear you are right about some off it.

There you go
That's all and none of it tragic.

Long ago the sexuality of women was seen as powerful and mysterious and our ancestors left totems and statuary attesting to their reverence for it. I think that maybe, just maybe we are emerging from that long dark age. Women are changing it. There is a lot of resistance to such change and the fear of those who oppose it can be measured by the brutality they employ to try to suppress it. Women are in rebellion- not always noisily and not always militantly but in the way they live and the way they think, and they way they say what they think. Keep talking, keep trying to be what you think you want to be. You don't have to lead the march, you just have to be in it.

Great post hopefully others will share and more will realize that there is no singular reason to be here.
