You have to make love to my mind..before you can make love to my body. Does anyone else require the
emotional connection first ?
I agree...might as well make love to a stick of wood! People who have never had that kind of experience might see it differently!
My Emotions are not on my mind so...
Which head is that emitting from?
Without a doubt, I am the prima Donna of this philosophy ????
Ain't that the truth. Sigh. Most times they think that making love to a woman's mind is just a serious of ego boasters for their mind..
"And when I do this baby your gonna love it."
What an assumption. Woman are never asked if they would love it. Some men just assume they will. They assume that because it's what they like.
Lol????real talk...oh boy.
@Honey4Oshun gotta keep it real
Most males I would say “no”. In general males don’t have to have an emotional attachment in order to have sex. It can just as easily be on the same level as a workout. Yes, the sex is much more satisfying and intense when there is an emotional attachment but it is not necessary.
This is true.
Without a connection there would be no point.
Amen !
A little kissing and hugging....? Or some erotica...?
Whichever of my fancies gets tickled, I will go with that. I always hate limiting myself with strict rules. Going with my gut (or whatever other body part), keeping an open mind, giving unlikelies a chance.
Going with your gut and a whatever body part is a plus lols
@ScienceBill72 Right? That tingle, that spark. It could hit anywhere.
My kinda gal!
If it works for you - it works! Lucky you!
Thanks for the responses. I thought everyone would say, hey Grace you must be a skanky slut (though that wouldn't really offend me). I live with enough rules from everyone else I don't need to build a wall of (my own) rules around myself. I'm a lover of freedom. If I want to screw that brute Neanderthal with the big arms and tight ass, whose only shared means of conversation with me is through grunts, then I'd do it. I'm not saying everyone should be like me. It's just that's how I roll with everything in life.
My relations with others may not be based on emotional or intellectual connection, but that doesn't mean I don't consider them special (even if they are only casual). I enjoy and adore every single one of them for what they are individually.
@graceylou oh yes grace that tingle or spark can definitely be hit anywhere on ones body, most especially for the ladies
@graceylou
I appreciate your sincerity.
Things should be what works for you.?
We are not wired the same.
Hi, Wildgreens,
You earn website points, and help other members get to know you better, when you write an informational profile that includes your hobbies and interests, and answer all the profile questions, since that's the first place many people look when they see a new member.
Also, the website uses your profile to find member matches, so the more details you include, the better the match.
Then you make comments and write your own posts to earn more points and privileges; for instance, at level eight you get an agnostic T-shirt.
In case you didn't know, to find members near you, click on the "Meet" button at the top of the page, then on "Members," and enter your preferred search parameters.
Or click on the "About" button at the top of the page to find links to FAQ or the website tutorial.

That sometimes does add alot of spice to a romance for sure
Yup..I'm demisexual.
I feel no sexual attraction for any gender or person except for after well over a year of close, bonding contact.
Then, it's only for that one person, and my libido is so strong it scares cis hetero men.
Absolutely. Times I've gone without that emotional connection it was lousy for both of us. Maybe it's an age thing, but I need to be in serious 'like' at least or I'd rather watch TV alone.
Long term emotional connection is definitely a wonderful thing, but people can get so caught up in looking for Mr. or Mrs. Right that they miss out on something good with Mr. or Miss. Right Now.
Life is short, and a human being's window for peak sexual capacity is even shorter. When I'm old and decrepit and no longer able to perform sexually, I can honestly say that I will have no regrets when the big blue bus reaches my stop.
I have had an emotional connection with all of the women I've been with. It matters little to me whether that emotional connection lasted hours, weeks, months or years. All that matters is that it was mutually good and fulfilling and lasted as long as she needed it to. I don't fret over break ups the way some people do. I simply go out and find someone new to share my bed with me.
Not really. An emotional connection is nice but not necessary for attraction/desire/sex to take place.
Its all chemistry....
@Honey4Oshun Alas, I was never any good at Chemistry....
Not the way I'd put it, but the priority is shared. Without first getting to know and become fascinated with another person's mind, from where is the deep attraction to come? My view of 'making love' is that it isn't a process of giving or taking, but one of sharing. In the same way, sharing of minds that leads to mutual pleasure, excitement and anticipation of 'what's next' is the ONLY way to achieve emotional attraction to go with whatever might be physical. Without admiration, respect and affection developing as people become closer, knowing another person and trusting are impossible.
We are thinking and reasoning creatures; defined by it more than any other attribute. Of course the road to real intimacy must be navigated by sharing of minds. The brain isn't a toy. I'm reminded of an old margarine commercial (knew the lady) that ended with "It's not NICE to fool Mother Nature!"
For me it has to be two-way, all of the way. Without the feeling of sharing being wanted, authentic intimacy is personally impossible. I don't care how she looks or how 'willing' she is. It takes more or it's a waste of time and energy. Being close social acquaintances enjoying interests and activities together with many women and them with many men is where it will arrest.
Trust (my definition) is shared in all ways. That is, no single party can be 100% responsible for a perceived breach. Half of trust is self-trust; as in confidence in one's own assessment of the other's character and parameters of conduct. Deception cuts both ways in almost all cases. It is vital to really see who the other person is without conjuring of fantasies or ignoring of telltale discrepancies; to trust mutual honesty in being emotionally and mentally naked with one another without reservations before the first garment goes off. (well, maybe an exception for shoes)
Can people enjoy sexual intimacy with less? They do all the time. Who hasn't? We live in a world of more sophisticated artifice than was even imaginable a generation ago. Short-cuts and instant 'gratifications' and their pitfalls are everywhere. Speaking of pits, so are sensations of emptiness in the pit of one's stomach in place of fulfillment; of almost immediately seeking more because there can never be enough of substitutes.
Intimacy without mental and emotional elements allowing complete surrender eases pressure but offers no repose.
Wow! I dig how you wrote that.
This past year I have been propositioned by an alcoholic, a woman and a cross dresser. As my son says.....I'm in no position to be fussy!
Homeless guys seem to think I'm something special!!!!!!
Enjoy your orgasms. They're nobodys business but your own.
????stop already!
@patchoullijulie yeah me too! LOL
@AmelieMatisse lol....I guess we just have something that no-one else has??????
@patchoullijulie. I actually told off the one guy one night by saying the reason he was standing all alone on the street corner was because he was disrespectful of women and no one was gonna make him dinner if he acted that way. Thinking back it was probably not the best thing to say but it does get old after a while. Oh well.......
@AmelieMatisse You know I have never really acknowledged them in any way because I was always surprised (one that anyone thought I was attractive...I know.. I know and secondly who they were.) Surprise always freezes me. lol
@patchoullijulie unfortunately where I live if I go out walking it is an everyday occurrence.
@AmelieMatisse That's so sad (not that you get recognized lol but that there are so many homeless people).
To make love definitely but not to fuck
LOL! True ,emotional connections can occur after an extremely short period of time in one's imagination.
@Kojaksmom I've got a great imagination and my mind is my biggest sexual organ.
Not this old trope again. Every couple of weeks some religiously trained person that's full of shame and guilt brings this subject up to get validation for their lives and spread guilt about yours. Absolutely no one in the entire history of mankind ever requires an emotional attachment to have sex. It's nice if you have it but it isn't required because if it were required you would never masturbate or own dildos.
The only thing missing from that post is the phrase "sanctity of marriage"
Your emotional attachments to people are separate from your physical needs.
Your central nervous system doesn't give a crap who or what is bringing you to climax.
LMAO..... smh
don't you have some porn to go look at ???
I guess I, along with the 3.5 million other demisexuals on the planet, are just full of shit then?
@MarvelAnn i liked the 'lick it before you stick it' line. That 's a new one on me ?
You (global) can't be an obvious idiot.But until I'm older and don't GAS there will be.... interviews.... Maybe I'll grow out of this next year...but have it on good authority it might be awhile....
Unless the stuff of soul mates or an adorable, mind tickling moosh with turn of phrase game comes along.... in which case both could be dickless...until then. NO. Not at first anyway... just sparks. hopefully next to a ton of flammable stuff.
