FTM? Might be the testosterone.

(Anonymous) 2019-05-07 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
yes, and it most likely is...but I don't like what that implies about men and hormones.

(Anonymous) 2019-05-07 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Same, tbh. :/ It kind of restructures a couple of old relationships of mine that ended up being deeply painful.

(Anonymous) 2019-05-07 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
DA

I'm really curious what you think it implies.

(Anonymous) 2019-05-07 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
nayrt, but it does seem to imply that the higher the "male" hormone, the higher the sex drive, and the lower the emotional drive. which i could see being an uncomfortable thought.

ayrt

(Anonymous) 2019-05-07 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
It implies the completely scientifically backed up view that testosterone increases sex drive? For men AND women???

Oh no?

I'm actually kinda weirded out that there are so many people happily chugging hormones without apparently having done even the smallest bit of research beforehand...

(Anonymous) 2019-05-07 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Story of my fucking life, man.

Although for me it's just a general disgust with associating sex and emotional intimacy. Hardcore squick.

(Anonymous) 2019-05-08 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
I have the opposite problem—the idea of sex devoid of emotional intimacy makes my skin crawl. Intellectually I know it’s a thing people do, but yeah.

(Anonymous) 2019-05-08 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
SAME. So much same. I know people do it, and I have zero judgement, and am super defensive of women's right to do it (I don't really feel like men need their right to have casual sex defended, but if they do, then I'll defend that too). But wow the very thought of it is so much nope for me.

Same. Plus the whole swipe at monogamy as bad, while media is so hot on adultery right now :/ And finally the "hormones make you lustful" which ties in which asexuals just need forcefeeding hormones until they become lust filled assholes.

(Anonymous) 2019-05-13 02:21 pm (UTC)(link)
How dare you feel love rather than disgust for someone you're fucking?
Or are they just objects rather than people to you?
Stick to prostitutes if you must fuck or keep your nasty self to yourself.

Puritanical fandom can be blamed for plenty, but I don't think I'd blame it for this. I think, for the most part, there aren't a lot of one night stand fics because that's just not what the majority of fandom wants to read and write, the majority of the time. I mean, it's certainly no secret that shipping is...kind of a huge driving force behind a lot of fandom. And for the most part, one night stands just aren't very shippy. Unless you end the fic with them kind of falling for each other and wanting to see each other again - but then it's not so much a one night stand fic as an alternate meeting hookup fic. *shrugs*

I'm not saying no one has ever been kink shamed for writing a one night stand fic. But I don't think shaming and/or fear of shaming accounts for the lack of such fic.

(Anonymous) 2019-05-07 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I can see both sides.

On one hand, you're right, fandom has always gravitated more to romance and shipfic than PWP in general.

On the other hand, there is a marked decrease in hardcore kink/smut fic, and I absolutely think it's because people are keeping those fics to themselves or their small group of trusted friends rather than putting them out there for general consumption and inevitable harassment by the purity brigade.

(Anonymous) 2019-05-07 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
+1. I'm not about to sit here and try to explain (for example) consensual nonconsent to these squawking idiots that think anything other than married missionary sex is abuse. Frankly, I write great kink, but I only share it with the people I know won't freak out on me because I've ridden that rollercoaster before and no thanks.

I'm not someone who jumps around to a lot of fandoms at a time; I've only really spent much time (SO. MUCH. TIME.) in two fandoms over the past several years. But I can say that in those two fandoms, this hasn't been my experience. The smut in those fandoms has been varied, and plenty kinky. In fact, the most straight-laced, non-kinky fandom I've ever been in, by far, was a fandom that saw its heyday in the late 90s. (I was in it in the late 00s, and it was still straight-laced as fuck then.) However, I acknowledge that you may well be entirely right about other fandoms I have no experience with. Some fandoms definitely have a stronger puritanical streak than others, that much is clear.

The funniest part is when those puritanical babies come barging into the few kinkmemes that are still active and demand everything that doesn't fit their fragile vanilla sensibilities deleted asap.
Honey, which part of the term KINKmeme do you not understand?

oh I totally have been kinkshamed for writing one night stand fic. I wrote a pwp where one half of fandom's juggernaut had mindblowing but emotionless one-off sex with a different person (in a world where he was not in some kind of relationship with the other half of the juggernaut) and I got so much flak for it that I had to report a couple of people to the abuse team. fans of the juggernaut pairing wanted to flay me for implying that Character would have sex with anyone else, let alone sex for fun. this was in the past calendar year, no less.

there's a lot of kudos on it but they're all anonymous, go fig.

Re: da

(Anonymous) 2019-05-08 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
Ok, THIS I can absolutely believe. What I was questioning was the idea that it's the puritanical crowd shaming people for their one night stand fics.

OTOH, I have no doubt that disgruntled asshat shippers would take issue with fics (literally any fics) that "break up" their OTP. Just not for puritanical reasons.

Though I guess if they're trying to make their objections seem more legitimate by claiming it's about "sexual morals," then I can see why one might call that purity wank.

(Anonymous) 2019-05-07 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
LMFAO WOW that was a throwaway comment in a rant thread...should I thank the secret fairy for this or be even more embarrassed? I'm leaning toward the latter.

I mean it's still true but. was not expecting to see it in secret form.

Oh, that's a mood. I've been having the same issues since I started T. I have it on good authority that it does level back out to something closer to normal after a bit, so here's hoping it does that.

(Anonymous) 2019-05-08 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
lol, I read that as
"wham, bam, have a nice life slut"

like, damn OP hahaha

I'm sure you could find what you're looking for, there's always a few people looking for it. Maybe try another fandom? I did that for Madmen, which I never watched, but wanted to read what you're talking about.

I just came here to say your choice of image made me cackle, OP. A+!
