I guess my biggest beef with all of this is the idea that because males typically are the more dominant gender, they can't be raped, because rape is about power and obviously women are never in power over men. . . In December, I had to remove one of my clients from his home, detain him until his...

I have a friend who as an adult was molested by a woman he happened to love, who thought that being in a relationship with him implied that he had to have sex with her whenever she wanted, regardless of what his personal opinion was. He'd been molested as a child in his sleep and never told...

I am glad you are making progress, RP, and are starting to come out of that cloud I metaphorically saw hanging over your head. I don't think I've ever been monogamous, but we did live several years in pseudo-monogamy, where we weren't actively dating or having relationships, but had FWBs who...

That would be misandry.

Dirtclustit, you are out of line. MEN CAN MOST DEFINITELY BE RAPED, and females can indeed be perpetrators. It is unfair to say that because a man biologically responds to being touched that it is consent, anymore than it would be fair to say a woman consented because she was wet. You sound like...

When you feel that you want to put your arm around her, either do it, or ask her if it would be okay. But not doing it because you're reading from her body language that she doesn't want that isn't fair. She may want it, but not have those physical cues, or she may be someone who isn't...

Runic Wolf and I have an 11 year old; my boyfriend Wendigo and his wife Pretty Lady have a 16 year old. Our being poly has not effected the boys' stability in the 4 years that we've been together. Financially the 4 of us have run the gambit from poor, on temporary assistance, near homelessness...

So the same guy who sent me the "Looking for Friends" message last month sent me this gem this month when I didn't respond. . . "I just realized that you may not have noticed the subtle humor... My initial message was a reference to your claim that you're a "gamer girl" I didn't think about it...

The OP is a he. He and his partner were a gay couple before his partner decided to explore a FWB relationship with a female. It is their home, not just his partner's home, and if he doesn't feel comfortable at this early stage with his now bisexual boyfriend having sex with women in his bed, I...

I'm a bit disappointed with the new steel corset boning I got in the mail. It's alot more flimsy than I was expecting. Found a new supplier after it arrived, because apparently American made steel is less sturdy than European made steel.

That may be true of people who started out mono, but those of us who have never lived monogamously have a harder time of it. The longest I have ever been able to stay mono was 2 years and 4 months and that only meant I wasn't dating anyone else. I was still making out with my female friends on a...

One thing that I don't think Matt understands in all of this is you can't just tell someone to stop loving someone else. Ry and Si's feelings for each other are real. They're not just going to magically go away because Matt doesn't want to share his wife any more. Did anyone ever stop to think...

One of my best friends is in labor with her first baby. I'm anxiously awaiting little Aurora's arrival. She's a week late and my friend was induced yesterday morning, but hasn't really made any progress since her water broke yesterday. I'm sure she'll take all the good energy she can get.

He asked her to remove him from her sig line since they are separated. He told her she was lying by keeping him in it. So it looks like she respected his wishes. It also seems like he's been coming here reading her posts to see if she's talking about him, because if she is, it means that she was...

I am fluid bonded with both my partners. Runic Wolf and I have been together since I was 16 and I was his first. We used condoms up until we got engaged 6 months later and my mom put me on birth control. I'm allergic to the spermacides in many brands of condoms and some of the lubricants too, so...

Feeling frustrated and relaxed at the same time. . . work is finally calming down and I'm going to not be working 12 hour days again for a while, but at the same time, the consumers that I do have are stressing me the fuck out.

I got this from a poly guy on Fetlife. His prefaced this with "I'm looking for friends." "Not interested in the least I take it? Well that's too bad. I could've friended the shit out of you... Or something like that." WFT? Out of curiosity, I checked out his profile and it said that he's poly...

First of all, most people around here don't feel teh need to post when things are going well. I know it's sad, but we're too busy living our lives to post. As for me, I'm loving living poly, I know that I am loved. Sometimes it is hard on Runic Wolf, my husband, because he had a lot of dating...

I've been guilty of the same, chatting with Wendigo right up until Runic Wolf is sitting right next to me trying to read what I'm typing because he knows that it bugs me and will get me off the computer faster.

There are some people who just don't like to put labels on relationships because the label itself seems to prescribe what the relationship can be rather than letting it grow organically. I've been with my boyfriend for 4 years. Most of the time we don't put a label on it. We've called each other...
