Tried the identity on for a week. Nope.
Sometimes, if I relax as much as possible while fantasizing, I can get a slight physical reaction when I imagine making out with a woman. When...
I edited some things in. My experience is like yours, but it's not for women. Basically, all the things society tells me I'm supposed to feel for...
Physical reactions are, in my experience, an unreliable sign. I get them in all kinds of non-sexual situations where I don't and never have felt...
I think I had a mix of the two. Some of it was active, but only in one specific context.
