I’m so intrigued by what you mean by “benevolently sexist dudes”

Standard

I’m appropriating the word benevolence from the term benevolent racism. As in, they think they’re doing you a favor or complimenting you, but they’re just doing something racist (or sexist, in the case of benevolent sexism.)

Benevolent racism example: Telling a black person that you bet they’re awesome at basketball. So like, Michael Scott on The Office calling Stanley his “secret weapon” in the company basketball game when he’s never even seen Stanley play basketball, basing this idea entirely on Stanley’s race. (See how it’s phrased as a compliment, but it’s based on a racist assumption?)

Benevolent sexism example: Praising a friend’s pretty house by saying that it “really has a woman’s touch.” Rather than, say, calling it well-decorated or pointing out the specific nice details.

And hey, benevolent racism is STILL racism. Benevolent sexism is STILL sexism. They suck. Don’t do it.

There are a lot of non-genital areas on my body I like to have touched. But it’s more a matter of how it’s being touched than what is specifically getting attention. That said, the tops of my thighs, my neck, and my lips are usually pretty receptive to touch.

3, 5, 7, 9?

Standard

3. Hahah, yes. I have a lot of unusual kinks and fetishes. To name one, I’m pretty into like medical-related bdsm stuff. Like, padded restraints, medical instruments, dental gags, straightjackets, playing doctor, etc etc.

5. My favorite sex position is probably doggy-style. When you can get a great angle going, it feels incredible.

7. In the stereotypical sense, no, I’ve never had a one-night stand. Like, I’ve never gone out, picked up someone I’ve never met before, had sex, left in the morning and then never seen them again. I have had one-off encounters with people, but they were like people I knew who I then continued to be friends with or it was a pre-negotiated thing.

9. I tried to have sex in the woods once, but we couldn’t get the angle right. Otherwise, most of my “public” sex has only been semi-public spots like cars, dungeons and people’s houses in front of other guests. I’ve done some things that weren’t full-on coitus in public places, like the outdoor sculpture blowjob, but I’ve never, like, fucked to completion in legit public.

The five things I would do if I were a man for a day would be: not wear makeup, walk around after dark, run for public office, wear pants with adequate pockets and, uh, I don’t know…I guess just generally have more confidence at work. I work for a lot of benevolently sexist dudes.

15, 20, 31, 35, 75

Standard

15. The most embarrassing thing that’s happened to me during sex is probably that I was sleep-deprived and fell asleep multiple times during my first threesome. I’ve written about it before on here, I think. Also queefing is generally just an unfortunate fact of life?

20. If I could have sex with anyONE right now…ugh, I don’t know. I’ve got a list. I’m greedy.

31. I’m not sure how to answer what the weirdest sexual act someone has performed on me is – it depends on your metric of weird! What’s our operating definition of weird here? SG and I once climbed inside of a giant outdoor sculpture when I was in college and I proceeded to give him a blowjob in there. Maybe that’s like the most unusual vanilla thing I’ve done. I don’t want to classify kinky stuff as weird.

35. The worst possible time to get horny is at work, definitely. Absolutely. No question. So inconvenient.

75. I have never anonymously sent a sexual ask on Tumblr. I believe in getting explicit, enthusiastic consent prior to talking dirty with someone for the first time.

For NSFW asks: 84 and 87

Standard

84. I love dirty talk! First of all, I think communication during sexual activity is important, even if I am entirely too blushy to effectively do it myself sometimes. But more than that, I get **really** turned on by it. (And entirely silent sexual encounters kinda freak me out.) Like, I replay good dirty talk in my head, I reread good dirty texts. I’m a big reader in general, so maybe it comes from that? I place a lot of value on the power of words.

87. To that end, I usually prefer reading smut/erotica to watching porn. A lot of porn is grossly exploitative or formulaic or just plain dull. If I’m going to watch something, I usually prefer homemade shit. I like the enthusiasm, the genuineness – seeing somebody’s cat just kinda wander into the shot and whatnot. I also bought Fifty Shades of Dylan Ryan after hearing about it at a feminist porn conference I went to with @herdirtylittleheart and watch that kinda often.
