I can’t imagine any opportunity where I would think less of another woman because of her sexual relationships (excluding the obvious, nonconsensual stuff). There are many, MANY women who are not interested in sex altogether. If it works for a couple, and both are happy, I hold no judgment. I’ve met men who are so afraid of getting ‘trapped’ by a woman (IE. getting her pregnant and being responsible for a child) that they will only give/receive oral, or anal. No sex. That being said, I don’t think at this time in my life I’d be comfortable in that situation myself. ---

There are women, and even more gay men, who actually enjoy giving oral . . . and not receiving. This has nothing to do with self respect or self worth, but simply a natural preference. And by the way, oral \*\*\*IS \*\*\*sex. ---

> [@Ambivalid](#): > > ☹ Yeah, I’m confused about this too. A woman that you’re unlikely to ever be intimate with has bedroom preferences that aren’t complementary to yours. So?? I mean, sure, at some level most of us straight guys feel the occasional twinge of disappointment that not every woman who lays eyes on us has to repress the immediate urge to go down on us, but other than that, I just don’t get it. ---
