Open Windows' medical post upthread is extremely funny.

I think the "things you've done" vs. "things you haven't done" divide is very interesting, but I would've thought the gender correlation that Kate suggests would've been reversed. Things I haven't done, after all, also = people I haven't been with, and 99% of the time that's what I'm thinking about.

Well no, things you've done or haven't and people you've not had sex with can usefully be regarded as two orthogonal concepts. There isn't very much sexually that I haven't done that I would like to, but there are loads of people I'd like to have sex with but haven't, and with any of them I can imagine doing things I've done before or things I haven't. I think it barely qualifies as fantasising if you are thinking about things you've done with the actual people you did them with - that's remembering, not fantasising.

i feel ambivlent about acts of pentration in porn, for a variety of post feminist reasons conflated with early mormonism, and so i mostly jerk about men taking their clothes off.

But the thread is simply called, "What do you think about when you masturbate?" (not "What do you fantasize about...") -- and I do know women who've told me that they think about specific past sexual experiences they've had. That's why I was speculating that it was perhaps more of a female thing to do.

Yes, I know - I was making a distinction rather than anything else. I have done it occasionally too.

strong sideburns, gruff visage, aces all the way.

There's a picture of him younger, shooting with Charles, in which he looks just like NA Nick.
