Re: Confession thread?

[(Anonymous)]

The anxiety in intimate situations comes from the fact that you're afraid your shortcomings, bodily or otherwise, would be exposed and then someone other than yourself would know about them (and worse, might tell even more people). These feelings are not entirely rational, but have basis in our struggle to trust other people with those details about ourselves.

I'm going to assume that in an encounter with yourself, these fears aren't an issue because you either already know all these things or if you discover something new (and really, how shocking could these discoveries be?), there's at least no danger of the news being spread. So it doesn't matter what the state of "the collective self-esteem of this place" is, because intimacy with yourself, even a hypothetical external version, is self-enclosed. You don't have to worry about the unpredictability of your partner's reaction. Maybe you come away with a few knocks to your self-image, but that's easily more preferable than a few knocks to your self-image and other people knowing about it.

Please, are you being intentionally obtuse? Virtual sex doesn't have anywhere near the same baggage as a real life sexual encounter. You've been arguing that body image is an obstacle to intimacy, which is true (I'm saying it's less a problem in the dream scenario). Making things "virtual" removes many, if not all of those deterrents, and that's exactly why a lot of people do it instead of going out hooking up with strangers.

Okay no one curr anymore, but I didn't have internet for a while and I just can't let this slide.

vir·tu·al
[vur-choo-uhl]
adjective
1. being such in power, force, or effect, though not actually or expressly such: a virtual dependence on charity.

I didn't mean cyber sex. I meant "what essentially amounts to strangers".

Okay, I'm out. Thank you for humoring me even though you disagreed.
