    AH is starting to depress me.

    EDIT: More.

    That's because your Bipolar Joe.

    So op, what's your weird kink then?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,076 ✭✭✭✭Czarcasm


    To each their own and all that, but what I find worse are the kind of people that judge others as "prudes" simply because whatever that persons particular kink is, just doesn't do it for the person they deem to be "prude".

    Having tried bdsm and light bondage, etc, I felt like a bit of a twat more than anything.

    I'll never forget one time though, one of my female friends was into anal fisting, and she was introducing me to her new boyfriend who held out his hand to shake mine... "You're alright thanks!", I thought to myself.

    Homosexuality was decriminilised 20 years ago this year, and people seem to be coming around to the idea that members of the LGBT community aren't freaks of nature, but what about other perverts and sexual deviants?

    Foot fetishists, sadomasochists, people who want to be splattered with custard, you name it and there is someone out there who gets off on it. Look at this thread here on After Hours where people say they get all giggitty-minded by the back of a guys wrist or a girls neck or whatever. What's the difference?

    The diversity of human sexuality is an amazing thing, and provided that everyone involved is acting on their own consent what's the difference between a person who likes to nibble on someones neck and someone who wants to put on a nappy and be treated like a baby? Yes, one is rarer than the other, but does that mean it should be ridiculed or abhored?

    Are you for real? What do you mean "other", are you saying homosexuals are perverts?:mad:

    As long as its consensual for everyone involved then knock yourself out

    There is only one perversion as far as i'm concerned and that is to carry on regardless in the abscence of consent. If it's consentual i couldn't care less what anybody gets up to. It's simply none of my business (although i will occasionaly watch it on the internet anyway, cos i'm a nosy little fúcker!:D)

    Of course we do, we have the "right" to be disgusted by anything that disgusts us. There are all manner of sexual practices that disgust me - i don't practice any of them, problem solved.

    No, you do not have a right not to be disgusted.

    I very much disagree. I reserve the right to be disgusted by absolutely anything, sexual or otherwise. What i don't have the right to do is to try force others to live by my likes and dislikes. If something disgusts you, you have the right to not do it - that's where it ends.
    Cheese disgusts me, it actually turns my stomach - so i don't eat, or handle cheese. I couldn't care less who else eats it, so long as i don't have to - i don't try discourage others. If they want to have a big old cheese eating orgy, best of luck to them - i just won't be attending! (or watching the video in this case:eek:)

    Don't see what your problem is,if it disgusts you it disgusts you,a lot of people do find homosexuality disgusting I reackon.

    I for one find homosexuality between men disgusting. Nothing wrong with it of course, it simply turns my stomach the thought of two men having sex.

    No law against being digusted,A lot of people would find anal sex disgusting and I'm sure homosexuals would find straight sex pretty disgusting,urinating on someone is disgusting in my book but sex with a Volkswagen is just incredibly amusing.

    No, the majority of homosexuals wouldn't find straight sex disgusting, it is merely "meh" to them because it uninterests them. You're brought up to think gay sex is disgusting, but not straight sex, so many don't see anything disgusting about straight sex, it just doesn't do anything for them.

    How you're brought up to view things will really influence how you see things like gay sex and you most likely could see it as disgusting because you were raised in this society to think that way. Do away with the stigma, which is happening all the time, and the majority of straight people will eventually just view gay sex as "meh" and something that doesn't interest or do anything for them -no disgust though.

    Everyone has their fetishes, some weirder than others. Once its legal and harming nobody then have at it.

    I personally think a fetish for feet is gross, but thats one of the more common.

    I don't think even legal comes into it. If it's not harming anybody then have at it - it's not so long ago that homosexuality was illegal. Legality is at the whim of policy makers.

    I also don't get the foot thing - i wouldn't say it disgusts me or anything but i don't find feet even remotely sexual. But each to their own!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,558 ✭✭✭seven_eleven


    everyone, and I mean EVERYONE has a range of fetishes, even those who judge others and call people with x fetish sick/freaks/weirdos, they themselves have a sick/weird fetish.

    Once its legal etc

    By legal, I meant not involving children/animals. After that i think its ok!

    It's just the anal sex really,the rest I can appreciate.

    It's just sex. In fairness when I was about 15 and looking at gay porn I also thought it was all disgusting and I thought if ever I did play around with a guy it could only be kissing. Ofc. That's just how I was brought up to see it and I copped on and realised it's just sex, feck all wrong with it.

    There isn't a huge amount of a difference between anal sex between a man and a woman or two men, the gender difference being the only difference, so I didn't get the big deal anymore after that. Call gay sex disgusting but it's all about as "disgusting" as straight sex, but with nothing wrong with either one.

    How do you feel about insects being used for sexual gratification?

    Another user of the site put it best for me in a thread about homosexuality. We are a species that likes to judge and we seem hard pushed to see the difference between "That is disgusting to me." and "That is disgusting."

    That simple point was an eye opener to me and it seems very true. Just because something is not for me - this should not license me to deride the action/thing itself. I now actively try to add something like "to me" to every thought or sentence I have when judging things. "That girl is beautiful/ugly _to me_". "This food tastes awful _to me_". "That way of life is wrong _for me_".

    Would that more people could or would try this. My own relationship is a little weird and odd in the eyes of many people. It is a relationship type that is not for everyone - or even for many people. Which is fine because I am not asking anyone to do the same as me - or even promoting it or recommending it in anyway. I do not even make it obvious in any way in my day to day life.

    The horror - anger - derision - and even violence it has engendered in others who cop the dynamic of my relationship however can be quite surprising.

    My cousin once pooed in a nappy in front of her husband.

    Are you for real? What do you mean "other", are you saying homosexuals are perverts?:mad:
    Fudging hell, obviously he's not - he's being ironic.

    Talk about taking something out of context in order to be offended!
    everyone, and I mean EVERYONE has a range of fetishes, even those who judge others and call people with x fetish sick/freaks/weirdos, they themselves have a sick/weird fetish.
    Are you sure those who call people with x fetish sick/freaks/weirdos have themselves a "sick/weird" fetish? Surely you realise it's possible for them not to?

    When you say everyone has a range of fetishes, if fetish means "turn-on" than yes, but it is most certainly not true that everyone has a range of unusual, obscure, extreme ones - it would make more sense that only a minority does actually.

    If people are into scat, I am well within my rights to think and even say "Yuck", but not to stop them. Although I could see how those close to them would worry about their health and safety (in the unlikely situation that they knew about it :pac:). Sh1t is toxic/potentially dangerous, consent or no consent.

    You should be able to accept your own (perfect ably acceptable) kinks without having to project them on to others.

    Unless we're in the usual grandstanding AH territory of my sexual liberation is bigger than your sexual liberation.

    For some weird reason I read that in Ralph Wiggums voice.

    This perfectly illustartes my point. This absolutely disgusts me!:eek::eek::eek:
    But i see no reason why they shouldn't be able to do it - it's not wrong per se, cos there is no right and wrong.
    But it is fúcking weird! And even weirder still that she told you!

    am I the only one guessing that she was friends with her now husband when she was a kid?

    My sentiments exactly- that horrifies me, but it's not hurting anyone and they're both consenting adults, so leave them to it.

    I must admit, I am curious as to why they find that attractive/a turn on. I tend to be curious as to the inner workings of anyone who has a drastically different view to me- like why and how they think so differently to me...

    No she was not. This happened when they were married.

    There really is a fetish for everyone, going from the average foot fetish to the more the obscure smoking / hiccup / burping fetish which are pretty harmless.

    Each to their own, it's quite interesting to see all the different types that exist out there.

    I do find the more bizarre stuff to be disguistingly hilarious, like urinal cake sucking, dildo go-karting, fart smelling, "farming" (stealing poo from public jacks), as in how far one would degrade themselves for sexual pleasure.
