Sexuality / Being uptight

[Betancore]

1. Yes, sure. I have done so in the past. I guess it's less weird when two girls sleep in the same bed, rather than two guys.
2. Around people who are equally open about it, yes. I prefer to keep some details private but I'm not against discussing it in general.
3. I let them be. No point making them uncomfortable. There are many things to talk about aside from sex, or sexuality.

sleeping isnt sexual at all, nothing really seems amis here

1.1) Would you share your bed with a person of the same sex?
2) Can you openly talk about sex or sexuality?
3) How do you act aroundd up-tight people?

1: Not always. I have shared a bed with my brother from time to time due to spacing issues. I have also shared a bed with my best friend. Last time someone 'needed' to share my bed with me I told him no. He didn't have a place to sleep because of certain circumstances so he accompanied me to my place. I don't know the guy very well and to be honest what I do know about him I mostly find very annoying so I wasn't happy that he was joining me in the first place. The icing on the cake however was that halfway to my place it started raining so by the time we got there we were both soaking wet, and if he'd slept in my bed we would have both been in our underwear. That right there was the fatal combination so he could suck it, be grateful he at least had a rood over his head and sleep in my reclining chair. I'm no homophobe, just very particular about who I get in bed with ^^

2. Yes. Oh, god yes.
3. I don't mind them too much. I can't use certain terms in public as much as I'd like because it sometimes makes me feel uncomfortable, but the topic is anything but taboo and if I meet someone to whom it is taboo, I might subtly mock them for a bit. Not too much, I mean after one or two remarks I'm usually pretty respectful, just need to get it out of my system

 

[Broady Brio]

1.1) On the condition that they was bi or gay.
1.2) I'm afraid I might get felt up during the night. (It's happened before. But that's a different story for a different day.)
2) Sort of. I mean some things I can and some things no.
3) Haven't really come across that situation yet.

 

[A Pious Cultist]

Other than the very imminent danger of poking the other person with a noctural errection? I wouldn't consider it wierd.

 

[BehattedWanderer]

Yeah, been there before. As long as neither of you is a cuddler, it's not a problem, really. Just have the "no naked" rule, which, if you're among other people, is a courtesy in effect anyway.

 

[smurf_you]

1. I don't care, omnisexual anyway if they wanted to do stuff
2.
3. Yes, all the time, if it comes up in conversation I usually finish it by making people feel awkward (its FUN ^.^)
4. See above about making people awkward.

 

[gl1koz3]

1.1) Depends. Unwillingly, though.
2) I never talk about it.
3) I don't act and even less care for what they might think.

 

[dex-dex]

1. I do it a lot! (it is not a big deal because i am a girl)
2. i can indeed but never with my parents
3. tell them to loosen up. I use to be very up tight about it but once you make topics nothing to be ashamed of them people will follow suit. unless they are very religious. which i am not. I am not saying you should be shelling your sex life out to everyone but all in moderation.

 

[Xanadu84]

1. No, I wouldn't. I understand the irrationality of that, but its not a matter of rationality. Its just a gut feeling, and as long as it doesn't hurt me or get forced on others, that's fine.
2) I associate sleeping together with intimacy. That and who knows how much I move around at night.
3) I often times lean towards being more private about sexuality. But when there is a good discussion, Ive talked about some incredibly sensitive issues without flinching.
4) Generally, I don't talk about things that would make them feel up tight. To each there own.

 

[fgdfgdgd]

1. Yeah, the same rules apply for both sexes. Sleep in my bed if you want, but don't hog the covers, try to have sex with me without my permission, or ruin the bed in some way.
1.2
2. Yeah, sex is just sex. Unless someone gets seriously uncomfortable with it I don't care.
3. Tell them to chill out but don't act like a dick to them?

Basicaly this reflects my views, i have no problem with it, i'm comfortable with my sexuality, it's never been an issue, hell, i've shared beds with girls and nothing but some innocent cuddling happened, and that's because i'm a sucker for cuddling.

 

[SultanP]

1: When one of my friends sleep over, we both sleep in my bed in only our boxers, we don't care. He even sleeps with his head on my shoulder some times. Only thing is that it's really warm, other than that, no problem.
2: N/A
3: I can talk openly about almost anything with anyone.
4: I usually try to loosen up people if I find out they are uptight. If there's no helping them and they insist on being offended and preachy at everything, I try my best to regale them with the most offensive storied I have. Thing is, if they are uptight, then I either try to help them become less so, and if that's impossible, I don't really care what they think, so I just try to have some fun with it.

 

[burningdragoon]

1: Sorta. I've done it before on field trips in high school and such. Really though if it was a single bed or smaller I'd rather sleep on the floor for space reasons more than anything. That would generally apply to lady friends as well unless I'm close enough to cuddle with them (which is rare). However I found it very silly on field trips where guys would be fighting over who got to sleep in the double bed and who had to sleep on the floor.

1.2: Explained in that mess above.

2: I don't have much input on the subject and I also generally don't care about a person's sex life. Make what you will of that.

3: Slightly uptight myself as seen in previous question, but I act how I act and if someone is uncomfortable with what I have to say (which is also rare) and they are polite enough about it I will stop.

Examples:
lady friend: Oh it's so weird to hear you say "vagina"
me: vagina vagina vagina!

dude friend: Ooooh the sex is great etc
me: cool. *end of topic*

 

[Irony's Acolyte]

1.1) I guess I would rather not but...
1.2) that's because I'd rather not share my bed with anyone else if I had too. Unless we were going to be "sleeping" together. But otherwise I like sleeping in my own bed, cus I'm generally not that much of a touchy-feely guy. But if I had to, I'd sleep in the same bed with either sex if necessary.
2) Yeah, I'd say so. I don't get overly embarrassed if someone brings up sex in a conversation.
3) I don't think I've really ever been in a situation where someone being uptight would make a difference. If I was though I'd act one of two ways. If I respected them and their uptight ways, then I'd refrain from saying anything that might make them uncomfortable. If I thought them being uptight was silly, I'd go all out and try to get them as uncomfortable as possible.

 

[Serenegoose]

1: I'd happily share my bed with anybody I was comfortable with as a friend, or even acquaintance, if circumstance required it. I sleep like a log anyway, so they'd not disturb me.

2: I find it easy to talk about sex and sexuality. It's not sacred to me, so what have I got to be afraid of?

3: I act no differently around uptight people than I do around anybody else. Why would their opinions affect me unless they were trying to foist them on me?

 

[Ham_authority95]

1.1) Would you share your bed with a person of the same sex?

If they're just spending the night or whatever, I suppose.


[2) Can you openly talk about sex or sexuality?

Only if the person in question is a partner and/or a close friend. I try to not poster my sex life all in peoples' faces like my friends do.

3) How do you act around up-tight people?

I just don't talk about sex with them. "Up-tight" people can usually be interesting in other ways, so I wouldn't need to bring up sex to spark a conversation.

 

[Not-here-anymore]

1) Would you share your bed with a person of the same sex?

Have done, many times. It's cheaper to do so in a lot of places, or at least requires fewer rooms. Hell, I've shared a bed with a gay guy on occasion, although he did assure me that he didn't find me attractive beforehand.
And then he stole all the covers, the bastard. 'Twas cold that week for me.


2) Can you openly talk about sex or sexuality?
...yes? Student - it gets talked about a lot. Though usually in general terms - I'm not really one for going into detail about my sex life (or lack thereof)

3) How do you act around up-tight people?
Much the same as I act around anyone else - I try to avoid major offence, whilst inflicting little jabs in joke form the whole time.

 

[darth gditch]

1. Yes, have had to do so before and will probably do so again. Not a big fan of anyone in my bed-I am a very restless sleeper and tend to run into things/people.
2. Yes, but it's personal. I view sex as a very personal and private thing. It's something very intimate to me that involves a lot of trust. I'm not gonna tell just anyone about my sex life, or lack thereof. But I can talk about it without embarrassment. Except maybe with my parents, family ect. Still a little weird in my book. *shrug
3. Meh, I don't know very many. I'm the most up-tight of my friends. And for the most part unless I feel strongly one way or another, I respect other people's opinions/mores so I won't talk about sex.
