Real or Fantasy?

Taking her actions towards me cumulatively over a lifetime, I would say she should never have had children.

Did you ever ask her if she wanted kids?
Maybe you two have something in common.

I like Soran's answer to Geordi in Star Trek Generations:
"Normal is what everyone else is, and you are not."

The nice Mr Spock would find that logic curious.

I had to look up this quote:
“It is curious how often you humans manage to obtain that which you do not want.”
--Spock in 'Errand of Mercy'

My late father told me she was the one who kept pestering him for children. She never specified "daughter," but that became unavoidably clear later on. Punishing me for being the "wrong" gender was bad enough, but going in the completely opposite direction when it came to my sister wasn't good, either. My sister grew up spoiled rotten, and if anything, has outdone her mother in sheer nastiness. Even the nastiest strangers I've known can't hold a candle to the females of my blood.

Yes, it has a poetic meaning out of context. However, it wasn't so nice when heard in the context of the episode. Kirk mentions that they didn't want war with the Klingons, when it happens. Sure, no sane person wants war. So Spock's comment is curiously on the racist side, given that the Klingons are attacking the entire Federation (which includes his people as well), showing that the Vulcans, too, managed to obtain that which they did not want.

I was just reading over one of my old posts, the one about the Hindu fellow who is contemplating a penectomy (he has two of them), in order to be normal. In that one, I say I wouldn't want to be normal if it meant losing something that felt good.

Then, later on, I'm defending "normal" people for having the greener grass.

Sure sounds like a contradiction to me. And it came out of my head.

Well, I was looking at his situation from the point of view that he is thinking about throwing away a gift. One that not too many of us get.

Of course, I'm not in his skin, so I really don't know what is fueling such a decision. Maybe the one he wants to get rid of simpy doesn't work. Or worse, gets in the way, or causes pain somehow. Maybe having two, in practice, doesn't double one's pleasure, as I may think it does, in theory. I once worked with a fellow who had extra fingers. Those fingers really didn't do anything. They were just there. I don't blame him for not having them removed, even though they were pretty much useless. But neither would I blame him if he did, if he thought that it would benefit him in any way to do that.

So I'm out of my depth trying to talk about the Hindu fellow. But for myself, if I was blessed with an extra one that worked just fine, I don't think I would chose to lose it just to make someone else happy. But that's a hypothetical.
I only have the one in real life, so since physically, at least, I am "normal," why not be aroused by what arouses normal guys (i.e., non-kinky stuff)? I imagine it must make life a lot simpler, and I desire that kind of simplicity.

Hope that explains the apparent contradiction in my view.

Personally, all of my fantasies are strictly fantasies. I never plan on acting on any of them. I don't mean to talk down to anyone, but all this actually wanting to lose body parts or self-mutilation just confounds me.

I can't equate pleasure with pain but I do like the whole power struggle scenario with femdom. Typically ********** or the like.

My two cents.

I know what you mean. When I started this poll, I was so sure that the guys who say that they are seriously into this would speak up and try to enlighten the rest of us. But now, I've begun to feel that our collective legs are being pulled.

[Alec Anaconda]

Any erotic fantasy is good, if you accept and enjoy it.

Might I suggest that realisation is rarely anything better that a poor shadow.

I’ve longed for a holiday, whishing for a well-deserved rest, only to be bored silly by day two.

Keep your arousing fantasy, Mr Chilli, and luxuriate in it.

If you act it out, there’ll be nothing left to arouse!

Uh-huh. Uh....well said.

And I suppose that a fetish doesn't necessarily have to make any sense, but judging from some of the other topics, especially some of the more family-related, I'm guessing a lot of it stems from their childhoods.

[Chilly]

Assume a world where all humans are fertile hermaphrodites. Anyone can choose to reproduce in a male or female way, and can get another person pregnant or just themselves by using their own ejaculate if they can't find a partner.

Do you believe that penectomy fetishes would be as common, less common, or more common, compared to our world as it is?

[Alec Anaconda]

Let’s assume that the hermaphrodite design has been skilfully designed so that these people can function equally well as men and women.

I leave others to explore the geometry, for it’s not as easy as it sounds!

Then my opinion is yes, more people will polarise into wanting only one set of genitalia.

In the real world, the fate of hermaphrodite babies is far too often decided in an almost arbitrary manner, often producing people who feel they are in the wrong sex body.

This already works in the plant kingdom. Flowers generally possess both male and female organs, but they need the help of insects or the wind to move the pollen where it needs to go.

I would tend to believe that a race of hermaphroditic humans would consider their bodies to be quite normal, and would likely consider people born with only one set of sex organs to be unfortunate freaks, with half of their life options denied them. It would be the so-called "freaks", I think, who would be seeking elective cosmetic surgery. Not for their own benefit, but so as not to creep out their mates during lovemaking.
Although I admit, there would probably be kinksters in this hypothetical world who would get aroused at the thought of doing it with a freak. I can only imagine what a porno site on that planet might look like!

[Chilly]

In such a society, I really think that penectomy fetishes would be more rare than in our gendered society.

[Chilly]

Because if everybody had one, it would be regarded more like an ear or a nose, rather than an exclusivity granted only to some on the basis of no obvious merit whatsoever.

As quoted in this editorial response in a Kiwi newspaper.

[Sockmess]

I just told my girl about my dark fetish. About destroying my gentila if it stops working and she is talking about it how great if my dick breaks so she can bite it off then where high heels to flatten and pirece my balls.

This is just her probably... but I'm thinking she might bounce back a little too hard during doggy style by "accident" just to snap my dick so she can end my sex life.
I think I found a keeper

[Chilly]

Is that her way of telling you she's got a "headache"?
Or does she know that she's turning you on?
