I don't know what it means to have a masculine sexuality.

But you do think men are prescribed sex roles by society? That their pleasure is put before a woman's and that the male is the dominant pursuer. That is part of the popular fantasy. Isn't that what gc would say and that sex roles are bad?

That the popular role of masculinity within erotic popular with straight women show a particular kind of masculine sexuality, no?

We've had this discussion before. You view all of sexuality through this weird BDSM lens that is very foreign to me. That's not how I was raised to think about sex.

Not all men are selfish and interested in their own pleasure first, nor are they all dominant pursuers of women. All gendered social roles are bad, but sex doesn't need to have anything to with society's roles. Sex is a pure and natural occurrence. Just bodies, no costumes.

So I don't know what it means to have a masculine sexuality. I have a high sex drive. I experience spontaneous desire. I am very visual. I am also very monogamous and not interested in fetishes.

But you see yourself as a minority among women.

Sex is influenced by society, within limits, and I'm skeptical of purity.

I definitely don't think of myself as the norm within men.

Whether I'm a minority in how I dress and cut my hair has nothing to do with sex.

Society can certainly twist a person's natural sexuality due to exposure to trauma and other things. But I don't think sexuality is naturally tied to society's gender crap. Just because a women willingly puts on makeup and a dress doesn't mean she wants to act like some porn star stereotype in bed.

If it isn't tied to society then why would changing society change sexual behaviour?

Surely there is a relationship but it's debatable what that is.

Would you say my deviancy is caused by society?

Sexuality is not naturally tied to society's gender crap, but society can twist a person's natural sexuality into something different.

Would you say my deviancy is caused by society?

That I don't know. I don't think you were born with a paraphilia. I think it developed due to something in the environment. But I really don't know anything about your life or childhood, so I can't speculate on what would have caused it.

It's so telling that this is the sort of thing theory keeps bringing up in a thread about

Is autogynephilia normal in natal women?

Everything is about him and his paraphilia. It's like he doesn't get the joke behind the famous lines, Enough about me. Now let's talk about you. What do you think of me?

I do actually find the general topic interesting. But he's just very focused on it even in unrelated contexts.

This is genderist gibberish.
