> Boo hoo I am going to be a 40 year old virgin!

And? I'm a 29yr old who is still a kissless virgin. Just try to get some good friends or something. Improve your career and climb up that ladder, then sex or relationships won't even matter anymore. Get off of 4chan.

[–] sabin@lemmy.world 135 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Wtf no your 9-5 (or in your case im guessing much longer) isn't a replacement for a relationship.

If you're somehow able to do nothing but work and self improvement all day and be satisfied with just that in your life then good for you but don't assume everyone can just adapt to that mindset.

Humans are not evolved to find intimacy so irrelevant.

This is a green text so I'm gonna suspend as much reality as I can.

This is not gonna go over well but here we go.

If you want to talk to women or whatever romantic/sexual partner you'd prefer, why the fuck are we paying women to approach them in a non-romantic/sexual professional setting and then being upset?

Either open up to people, lower your standards, or increase your own self-worth to approach whatever arbitrary standards you've made for you.

Talking to people in a romance/sex setting isn't a fucking myth, it's a very everyday part of life that every single person thinks about. Approach it like that, don't be an asshole, and above all go out and have fun.

There is someone for you, and even if you don't think so, there's someone exactly like you willing to take the same risk.

If you've read this, and you're upset, it's on you. Go outside and fucking try.

Some people find sex less important than others and prefer to focus their energy on other aspects of their lives.

[–] sabin@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

No debate there but I don't think you can extend that truth into suggesting that everyone could just as easily be fulfilled if they just "focus their energy on other aspects of their lives".

The idea that intimacy is required to live a fulfilling life is the lie. There are famous examples of people who were life long virgins. A few of them were in unconsummated marriages.

[–] lessthanluigi@lemmy.sdf.org 13 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I would argue the reverse is also true. There were famous people with intimate relationships that have very unfulfilling lives.

Bro…I’m glad you’re happy. If you do get the chance for a kiss though, it’s worth trying it out. They feel nice.

Improve your what and do what? I have no idea what that means.

I was 27 when i did the deed for the first time. It was very overrated. I'm almost 40 now. Ive been married, tried a few partners, it just didn't matter. But before 27 I thought I must be missing out and got sad over it. Nah man it's really nbd.

[–] frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 31 points 3 weeks ago

It's not a big deal, except that now you know it's not a big deal. When people are hung up about it, releasing that can be a help.

[–] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago

It's society putting sex on pedestal. I agree when I did the deed for the first time, I feel it is overrated. Sorry if i might slight someone here, but from my observation, it is kind of the shallower folks who put too much value on sex.

I'm literally gonna be a 40 year old virgin bros

[–] chocosoldier@lemmy.blahaj.zone 32 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

yeah maybe hire an actual prostitute instead of assuming all women offering a service you don't understand are actually just whores

anon deserves his blue balls

[–] Fleur_@aussie.zone 29 points 3 weeks ago (10 children)

Anon is very obviously describing a prostitute who lives somewhere where it is illegal and thus advertising with innuendo. Anon was turned down by a prostitute. Also the only one calling women whores was you.

That's why you make an agreement in advance.

IMO the worst thing about being a virgin is that it's forbidden to have sex, at least according to your caring parents, teachers, and social context. It's more about breaking the nonsensical rules than actually about having sex, at least that's how it was for me.

[–] subarctictundra@lemmy.world 15 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

it's forbidden to have sex

Yep. I grew up in upper class britain and it's sad how here too that was somehow, without ever explicitly being said, drilled into me.

Edit: nobody ever told me that sex was bad, but that's the view I took away for some reason?

You're not a virgin because you're bad with women. You're a virgin because you're bad with money.

it's not the sex that I crave, just a physical warmth would be great

[–] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

This is a really common sentiment. Humans are social apes but many cultures have severely curtailed what kind of touch is considered appropriate.

I highly recommend hanging with cats. When I was younger, I volunteered at a cat rescue. Friendly cats are almost always down to be pet and to rub their furry little faces all over you. It's hard to feel as lonely when you're hanging out with your cat buds, and the rescue cats need friends too.

Allow me to introduce you to... the London Undeground trains! The Northern line in summer rush hour is like a bunch of penguins huddling together for warmth in a hot oven.

EDIT: I think I misunderstood what you wanted but I hope you got a chuckle out of it.

I have never fucked a woman but I fucked my first man at 29. Does that make me virgin?

[–] frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The writers of "The Ethical Slut" advocate for a very broad definition of having sex. They even have a (tongue-in-cheek) bit where they say that by reading the book, you and the authors are engaging in a form of having sex.

I'm not sure I totally agree with going that far, but I do think a broad definition is better.
