Honestly, the solution to this, I think, is to start complimenting other men. Men don't compliment each other because they're afraid of being seen as gay (even if they're not aware of it, it's fully ingrained into us from the time we're children). Breaking that barrier and complimenting other men, and not (openly) caring about that stigma will help other men do the same. Eventually, men will start complimenting each other.

Note, I say this as a gay man, so I'm sort of past the whole humiliation of people thinking I'm gay bit. I understand it would likely be more difficult for a straight guy, because you (they?) have to also worry about losing potential romantic partners if people think you're queer.

Suddenly I've had a weekend like in my 20s, but I didn't have to spend a bunch of money on overpriced cocktails.

The real question is, do I magically end up with a boring, closeted "straight" guy who pumps and runs directly afterwards, or am I just walking home naked? Because depending on how that answers, it's either a weekend from my early 20s, or my vacation to Mexico a few years back.

Honestly, with the majority of the people I've slept with, not so much a bold as just taking advantage of the opportunity. Hell, some of them and I already know each other from group sex, and the the majority of the rest have engaged in group sex in other circumstances. The vast majority are, at the least, okay with random hookups with strangers.

Probably bone. Most of the people I've had sex with, sex has been the only thing we've had in common. If it's everyone I've had sex with, it's going to be a little crowded, but I'd imagine we could all have quite a bit of fun.

Probably contacting some media outlets to try and monetize my talking-duck status, and wondering if if my life expectancy is on par with duck or human.

All hail Stamets, Lord of the meme.

Monkeys. Several species, but specifically pygmy marmosets. What I really want is Borrowers, but since the scientific community refuses to focus research on the actually important things, it feels unlikely in my lifetime. So pygmy marmosets. I want to walk onto my porch, and a troop of teeny little monkeys is chilling out there, living their best lives.

Just read the wiki. All I could think was "with that much control, he'd be an astounding bottom"

The Internet has broken me.

There is no "all of the above" option, which is the correct answer.

However, I really enjoy startrek.website

Mintz is my family's name. You don't see it a whole lot. Crazy to know Data is a Mintz.

I absolutely will not. Vote blue no matter who is why we have the situation we have. 2016 did not give us trump. Generations of shitty corporate politicians on both sides of the aisle gave us Donald Trump. Populists win because they're popular, and trump got popular by pointing out the factual information that the house, the Senate, and the oval office are filled with corporate skills and corrupt puppets. Sadly, it was the fascist who got popular pointing it out, but it doesn't make that part of what he says untrue.

I live in a red state where my vote for federal office does not count. So I will cast my pointless protest vote for the green party in the hopes that one day they'll get their 5%, and maybe something can change. Down ballot I'll hold my nose and vote for the Democrat in most offices, and if I ever move to a competitive state, I'll do the same for federal, because I'm being held hostage by the corporate shills, and I'd rather my family not die in concentration camps that are inevitably coming if/when the fascists fully take power.

But no. Fuck blue no matter who. Who. Fucking. Matters. If it didn't, we wouldn't be in this mess. Have some standards.

Girls, too. I grew up with this girl that always collected cool looking sticks, rocks, et cetera. Her room looked like what a bedroom would look like if a raven made a wish to be human. Ended up wiccan, and still collects cool sticks and rocks. Haha.
