reassure him

We recently tried an exercise from the book Ethical Sluts. The two female authors suggest sitting together or separately with your intimate partner and writing a list of 10 things he can do to reassure you. These need to be behaviors, not emotions. For example, to say, "Love me more," is difficult to meet concretely, but "hold my hand" is an observable behavior. When done, share the list with each other.

Here are a few examples.
1. Touch me often.
2. Leave me a note.
3. Send me a text when I'm at work.
4. Snuggle with me for 5 minutes at night in bed.
5. Sit next to me.

6. Do the dishes.
7. Talk about our future together.
8. Do the laundry.
9. Prepare food for us.
10. Call me a sweet name, like love, or hon.

Yes, this requires some personal vulnerability. That's intimacy. It can be heavenly if you do it. This is not a demand list. But it sure helps to know how to reassure your partner.

civility and doubt

I rarely take the time to listen to full videos online - like this one: http://vimeo.com/51201786. Today I am sick and took the time - and this one was amazing. It has many of the long-term Gandhi-like principles I believe in, but often don't let settle over my own personal conflicts. Like this voter initiative in my state on gay marriage. Part of me gets all bunched up in crisis mode. And then dialogues like this come along to give me peace and direction, long-term hope and confidence in people.

A couple of my take-away points, for those who won't have the time to view this conversation.
  • Social change comes one community, one state, one locale at a time.
  • That's the beauty of our system - an organic consensus - not an imposed mandate.
  • Opinions change by people meeting and being friends - welcoming "the other side."
  • Civility and doubt are good partners. Doubt being partly not knowing the "right" answer all of the time.
  • The merit of having people that are not like you in your circles - they help you know what you don't know.
This video is a keeper. I want it on my blog, if anything, to refer to it again. To take the time to glean again while folding laundry, washing dishes, or exercising.

Perhaps some have judgements come up reading this. That's okay. See what comes up for you to learn.

To not be misunderstood: This blog is journal-like. Yes there is some exhibitionism - as others call it - or desire to be seen in some ways.
I value each of the people I've had the priviledge of meeting and, in a variety of ways, loving and respecting. That I relish one does not diminish sincere delight for another. There is space in this world for lots of affection, lust, pleasure, friendship, uniqueness.

8th orgy - wrestle mania


Last night was amazing. Different than any other so far.

I had an impromptu visit to Utah, and decided to throw a sex group together. They normally take a significant amount of hours to organize properly, and I didn't have the time or internet connection, so did what my friend called ''orgy light" - inviting just guys I've been in contact with before, keeping the number of invitees lower.

There were four of us: stylish mohawk prince albert, a friend I met on DN online a few years ago, and have camped with a few times, along with his hubby. So sweet to be with this creative friend again. Many guys say sex ruins friendships. Definitely not so here. And boundless energy loud wrestler, new friend I met through mohawk man last time. So fun, such an endless supply of energy, and man I thought I was noisy. Not compared to this guy :). And then awesome 50-miler gorgeous athlete hinny, who I've also camped with a few times, and is becoming more of a friend than I had realized. Sorry to objectify your beautiful hinny. I do value you for you, but just sayin'. 50-miler picked me up from the airport and we went on a picturesque motorcyle ride earlier in the afternoon. Another guy who loves the outdoors and spends alot more time out there than I do. Then me, who I'll call this time smiley in-heaven dude with pony-tail feeling sexy on my 32nd day of no sugar. Another story for another time.

First was the hot-tub and chatting. Nice to catch up. Naked is nice too. Then headed inside and was doing some computer techy stuff with wrestler guy. Mohawk and 50-miler were getting along just fine on the bed, starting with a naked back massage, then some 69. I extracted myself from the techy conversation and wrestler transitioned smoothly to some standing neck and ear kissing and thrusting to beats. Mohawk brought some awesome earthy world music that put us all into a trance.

 I lost track of the others as wrestler and I alternately pushed eachother into different holds and thrusts on the carpet and in various nooks against the wall. He started moaning, and I soon discovered a very vocal playmate. Possibly the most vocal I've met up to now. I worried a bit about my neighbors upstairs, a sexy but conservative young gay couple upstairs. Energy moved from super hard-ons to pretty physical wrestling. A true contest. Sexual. Mirrors. Breathing hard. And boy noisy. My Honey is going to wonder about the scratches and carpet-burn. He reads my experiences here too.

I connected with mohawk next, squirming and enjoying the dance, and the sweetness of friendship. Reveling in the beauty of being gay and unfettered. I'd gone and gently slowly inserted my glass dildo, so was ready. I asked mohawk to top me, which he happily gifted me. Another first: being topped with a prince albert penile ring, condom of course on. I can't say I felt much different inside, perhaps the nerve sensitivity is not as developed up there :). He pulled out after a bit.

I got friendly again with 50-miler, moving a few inches over. I asked to top him, but by the time I got the condom on things didn't work, so we played otherwise. A common transitory experience of many guys, young and old, I've experienced. The four of us moved into a cuddle pile for a few minutes with some increased talking.

Then mohawk and I decided to try to fuck eachother at the same time. Legs in scissors position, dicks bent down into each others' holes. He asked me to warm him up by going in him first. Distraction - from which we never recovered. The other two became interested in our experiment. Next thing I know mohawk is curled up under me, I'm loving topping him, wrestler moves in behind me and inserts, and 50-miler inserts into him! Four train. Yahoo. And a mirror to take it in visually even more. Damn I'm glad to be gay, I think again. Mohawk friend cums under me, loudly, twitching. Then I have to get out of him, because he's really sensitive after. He runs to the bathroom.

The three of us morph into something else. Wrestler going down on 50-miler, me topping his fine and very willing ass. It's been a couple hours, so I let myself cum. Hot. Hot. 50-miler cums a second time in his unique hold-back method which allows him to partially cum, multiple times. I continue post-orgasm twitching, my muscles spasming involuntarily in ecstasy. Wrestler guy hovers over me and engages in playful energy movement, quite unlike anything I've experienced before. He doesn't allow me to retract into the "place" I am accustomed to going post-orgasm, but continues to dance with me in a mixture of heavenly torment. Learned some things about energy there.

The evening goes on for another hour plus with some great mutual wanking, relaxing naked together. We shower and hug then kiss goodbye. Man I'm fortunate to know such beautiful people, inside and out. Friends for a lifetime I hope.

assuming blessor

panoramic of sun rising to bury receding shadows 

I'm writing this this morning because I'm having difficulty doing it. Sometimes I ease smoothly into this archetypal energy, other times I don't feel it at all, but call on its maturity. It can be especially helpful with a partner, as an influencer. Today I'm calling on it to soothe my own self.

a magical being lands for a moment - opening me to a quietness

morality and dick response

dildo on the dresser
Is there a correlation between said morality and dick size and response? I think so.

size

A previous boyfriend had all these rules about our intimacy. No touching below the waist. Pants stay on until we'd been dating for some time. If we ever got to oral, it would be with a condom. But he loved to kiss, talk sweetly, and be close. I'll call him hottie tall guy who broke my heart. A few times he got pretty horny and started to reach into my pants and disrobe me. I asked him if he wanted to break his own rules. My thinking was that I didn't want him to break his own rules in the heat of the moment, to later regret it. I wanted to support him in his goals - even if they weren't mine. I wanted him to do things conscioulsy.

He has a very small erect penis. And I'm not just saying that because it didn't work out between us (hehe). I wonder how much of his hesitation in whipping it out had to do with his self-consciousness about it being smaller than average. I think alot. Another intimate friend, marathoner pecs guy who turned me on like the energizer bunny, also has a smaller penis. Not that I care. He was so hesitant at first, not letting me touch his cock, but totally grabbing mine, and loving our physical intimacy. We ended up playing several dozen times. Way fun. Once he saw that I totally digged him, ALL of him, his cock hesitance disappeared. I loved his new confidence.

How many times do guys resist certain revealing sexual activities, primarily because of their dick size? They might cite moral obligations, STD fears, a desire to wait... but if they had a bigger dick - all or most of these cited excuses might be thrown out the window. I've met enough guys that I often take recitations of morality with a grain of salt. "Ah," I think, "he might be a bit shy about...." whatever.

As an ocassional nudist, I am surprised by how many gorgeous gym-bunny guys really show off their bodies, being almost nude at pools, outside, but will not take off that last piece of underwear. While citing that they wished they had the confidence to take it all off. Perhaps their dick does not reach their measurement of perfection? If their cock was bigger, would they take off that cute little speedo?

Then again, my friend monster cock chatty narcisist cutie, keeps his shorts on for exactly the opposite reason, everyone looks at his unit. He has nothing to be embarrased of, nice body, etc, but is.

Which leaves me thinking, wouldn't it be nice if more of us learned to love what we've got? Be good with it? That confidence is sexy.

I'm not especially good-looking, not esepcially large or small in penile length, not ugly, but not model-like. I'm fit but not especially photogenic like some guys are. I don't have stunningly wide shoulders, a trim waist, a bubble butt, a pretty-boy face. Often though I get what I want, who I want, or the experience that I want, because I make up for it in confidence. Or I seek them out. Please believe me too that the opposite is often true. I often don't get what I want, who I want, or the experience that I want - that time. Generally, even when I feel a bit shy, or not particularly sexy, I go ahead and act as if I did, and then it comes. Confidence and sexiness are traits. Not just physical beauty.

Another friend I work with, overweight young go-getter with killer attidtude, gets almost any guy he wants, in my judgement, because of his confidence. It not that he's nice, in fact he comes across as kind of a dick sometimes. And he's pretty fat. Just saying. Many guys are super drawn to him. He gets laid by twinks, muscle guys, average guys, short guys, tall guys, younger and older. He doesn't give his power to anyone. I love hanging out with and working with him. Admirable guy.


erections

I think the same about many "moral" resistances when it comes to erections. I've met many guys who might verbally say they don't do this or that. Judgmental about guys who do. All until they get an erection. Some guys don't get erections easily. This might have to do with age. Or tightly-wound self-judgments. Or a rapid mind that can tend to hijack the body's natural responses. Or past experiences. Or medical conditions, usage of some chemicals, and other reasons.

For whatever reason, when a guy feels like he's not being judged, by others, but also by himself, things seem to work quite naturally downstairs. Often. And in instances when not, it helps to remember that all sorts of fun and intimacy can be experienced still. Letting go of fixation on things working one way - hard cock - in-and-out of anus - releases one to experience beauty and divine play in a whole bunch of other ways.

My point is though, that alot of guys resist or judge because of their own erection response, even when they cite a whole bunch of other reasons. Omitting the real reason: it's hard for me to get/sustain an erection, I'm embarrassed about my penis size, whatever. Whether participation in a polyamorous venture, hooking up, or chasing the guy they'd like to go after, judgments often have to do with own personal insecurities.

Not rocket science here.

room for morality?

So is there room for morality? I think there IS room for values, guidelines, and spirituality. But please spare me the self-righteousness! Often morality judges, punishes, and excludes. If you find yourself resisting something strongly, take a look inside first and see if it comes from one of your self-messages, wounds, or insecurities. If you didn't have that insecurity, how different would you act? 

My perception is that many people's stated behaviors are much different than their wished behaviors.


other insecurities

Other insecurities people have, sound or not, are around testicle size, chest conditions, hair patterns, skin pigmentations, anomalies, etc. A couple of friends have had a testicle removed, for cancer, or plumbing twisting. Outdoors bearded 9-inch show-er replaced his missing testicle with a prosthetic, while wild topping verbal fiend left just the one ball. I'll stop here for now, but you can see that the list goes on.
