    be 20 y/o permavirgin

    I was 22 when I had my first time. Never considered myself a permavirgin.

    Happy the poster found happiness for the following reasons:

    a) he got laid

    b) he’s no longer a virgin

    c) he found happiness

    d) he found someone to love and that loves him back

    e) there are two more people happy in the world

    but, holy turtle on a skateboard, am I really happy for having one less doofus complaining of being alone.

    Bring on the hate! I love you all!

      I was way younger and it was super cringe. It was also fun and hot, but looking back I shouldn’t have tried to get laid so early and desperately. We were so stupid back then.

      For example, one girl actually persuaded me into having unprotected sex, which I didn’t want, but I wanted to get laid so desperatly that I agreed. She was using a calendar to track her period and fertile days and that was risky AF and didn’t account for STDs as well. This is something you can maybe do as a long time couple, but not with a person you just met three days ago.

        Definetely not.

        I was a blood doner when I met my partner. I was constantly asked/reminded that having casual sex partners would ban me for six months from donating; I have a fairly uncommon blood type for my country, so I was very keen on not being put on “quarantine”.

        When we said it was the right moment for us to be together, I went to make a donation before and warned I would not be donating for the nexy six months for obvious reasons.

        I was thanked for the warning and about two weeks later received a full bloodwork panel, including STDs, attesting I was clean and as safe as possible.

        When I did return for my next donation, when asked if had been with new sex partners for the last six months, when I replied I was still doing the same, since my last visit, everyone laughed.

        Never pressure anyone into unprotected sex. Ever.

      Odds are with some level of effort someone is willing to fuck you unless you throw off huge danger flags. Working on your personality, appearance, and social skills just make it so your odds go from largely the sort of people who’d fuck anyone to the sort of people who are more selective

      To expand on that, there are no successful fem-men for good reason. So around the age of 30 “twink death” will set in, and anon will go longer like his former femboy, at least not for that part of him.

      Unlike most gay men, he’s probably not actually comfortable being with a man. They’re not prepared to grow old together because he relies on his boyfriend’s ability to maintain his suspension of disbelief. That will almost certainly no longer be possible after twink death no matter how hard he tries.

        Have you SEEN some of the drag queens out there!? Quickest one I can think of is Monet X Change. Dudes 34 and built like a man but still damn fine looking when all dressed up.

          You’re a drag fan, you’re blind to it.

          Or, well, I guess that’s not necessarily universally true for all drag fans, but if you think Monet is a good counter example it’s certainly true for you. It’s exactly what I meant with “no matter how much he tries”. Monet clearly tries very hard.

      The zoomer incel gooner that spends weeks or months ERPing in discord consumes only anime as media and does not ever see an actual woman in an actual sundress, in media or the real world.

      Thus, to them, all sundresses are anime sundresses.

          I said it because I’ve known quite a few zoomer hikikomori.

          Its like people who only read or type words, but never actually have audible conversations with those words… they have no idea how to pronounce them.

          Why would they? No relevant use case.

              Most people in general still cannot seem to figure out the difference between calvary and cavalry.

              Both are pronounced as they are spelled.

              Calvary is the hill Christ was crucified on.

              Cavalry refers usually to soldiers mounted on horseback, though since the invention of helicopters, it also means infantry transported via helicopters.

              This one doesn’t seem to be caused by lack of verbal usage, it seems to just be a quite common pair of words to conflate, a very minor but widespread dyslexia/dysphasia, like nuclear and nuke-you-lur.

              EDIT: An example more in line with mispronouncing meme, due to never using it aloud…

              I remember in middle school when the extremely bossy, overconfident girl pronounced ‘analyst’ as … anal-ist.

              Oi vei, lol. Paging Dr. Proctor, paging Dr. Proctor.

                  I’m fairly sure ‘alu-mini-um’ s the proper UK/Aussie/NZ and possibly Canadian way to pronounce it, only Americans pronounce it alu-min-um.

                  But yes, rogue vs rouge is another one people mix up all the time.

          Heh, different kind of ERP.

          Nonetheless, you have my sympathies.

          I’ve worked at a number of different places that changed ERP or CRM software, and it basically always involves a 3 month period of all kinds of insane errors happening due to people being unable to figure out a new UI.

          Then also all the edge cases with bespoke workaronds from the old system just collapse completely, even if the managers were told ‘hey this will break, we’re gonna need to make a new workaround, please give us time to test it’ and then the managers don’t… or, even more fun, the only guy or gal that even knew those edge cases existed, and made all the workarounds, they just quit, and then no one has any idea why a whole bunch of shit is broken.
