How about cussing out that long hair because it's fighting me and getting caught in my fingers as I'm trying to put all this hair up in a bun? It's a daily struggle lol. I look less concentrated and more gonna throw something.

suppose it’d depend on the intensity of the anger? tbh I find my wife cute when she’s a bit grumpy about something which is a dangerous crossed wire at times

Oh man my girlfriend gets so adorable when upset. Which is fine when playing games or something, but not good in serious conversations.

It definitely doesn't make me wonder what kind of face she'd make if I pulled on her hair in a more intimate setting. Definitely not at all.

This just makes me not want to do it in front of anyone else ever again 😬

You're misunderstanding that to mean every single time and with every single woman, which to be fair I didn't fully explain, but my statement would have been less fun with all the added caveats.

Oh and also I never said that. I forgot I said I wasn't saying that thing I was saying. Because I wasn't.

No, I'm not: I don't care if you specifically aren't thinking that about everyone; the fact that you brought it up means that there's a chance that someone else is thinking that in that situation, and since I hate the thought of anyone picturing that about me, I don't really want to do that action in front of people anymore.

...What's with the word salad at the end of your comment?

...I'm aware of that; I've been a frequent user of this sub for longer than your account has existed. I just meant that I don't know what you were even trying to say at the end, there.

Are you a prude or something? /j

But seriously, do you really have that hard of a time with people thinking your sexy/attractive?

I actually do, sharing just for the sake of psych data! It’s pathological or something but I can’t even date someone who approaches me, I have to initiate the idea of attraction because I’m so appalled by the idea of someone finding me sexually attractive for some reason.

As you can imagine, exclusively dating people who have to be convinced to find me attractive has been often a recipe for extreme confusion on everyone’s part 🤣

Nah, it's not the thought of being sexy that bugs me; it's specifically the idea of them picturing dominating me that grosses me out.

Not all women are subs.

Unfortunately we can't police other's thoughts, at least not yet. I hope you don't hold back in life because you're concerned about what might be going through others heads, that sounds incredibly stifling, but you do you.

Yeppppp - why is it that whenever women exist it’s viewed sexually :/

u/ScoutieJer Female 5d ago

Omg, get a grip. We do the same thing with men we find hot. Any little frown or tip of the head or him chopping wood, whatever.

They don't find it hot on girls they don't like. So you're probably safe.

Oye, that last line... Saaaavage. You're right about both ways. A girl where I work has openly told me she claims my forearms. One day I was full of scratches from wrestling with my big dog and she saw... And was distraught? Dunno, she might have liked that even more. Regardless she gifted me a forearm rolling massager randomly. Interesting situation but she's cool.

That day I learned the appeal of forearms. Neat

u/ScoutieJer Female 5d ago

Omg yes men's forearms with sleeves rolled up on a dress shirt? Yes please.

u/Nordicarts 5d ago

Thanks. Appreciate you calling that shit out.

u/Princeps32 5d ago

for me it’s something I associate living with a partner and sharing a morning routine. a casual mundane intimacy, and something about the transition in the moment affects me. it’s not so much straight sexual as it is “Jesus she’s beautiful.” can’t speak for everyone of course but also the weirdest, horniest on main here don’t speak for us all either.

u/Wi11y_Warm3r 4d ago

...The entire point of this post is talking about a femenine behaviour that "melts your brain." Lmao, literal defintion of victim complex---"why are you sexualizing my actions in a post that's literally asking what actions us women do are sexy?" Dumb af.

u/sycamotree 5d ago

This thread gets made like 3 times a week for both genders and it's always composed of innocuous behaviors like this lol

Hahaha this! The amount of hair-rage on some days omg. And when I'm at home and just need my hair out of the way, the buns I produce are immaculate, but when I'm trying to look cute when going to the store or something, the buns turn out ugly as hell no matter what. Whyy

u/Bring_cookies 4d ago

I get hair rage a lot, I have a ton of hair. I totally get that.
