Episode 9 made me so happy.

What kind of question is that?  :wth: no, no it will not "function" if you cut 1/3 of it off.

Still that'd take at least a month.  :lol:

err then I don't really know what to say to you there. Fight your hormones and try to avoid him? Or at least don't start up your relationship again even if you do sleep with him... 

This is probably a really dumb question but how is there sexual tension if you don't want to have sex with them?  :derp:

Yoon Shi Yoon is in that drama? I didn't know, maybe I'll actually go watch it now. Taemin's ost sounds good too.

/don't kill me for bringing this up again plz I have to admit that I find a lot of similarities between myself and those who identify as asexual/aromantic. That's not necessarily how I identify because I'm not sure enough yet, but I often find myself understanding and relating to this group of people more than with the general population. I fully acknowledge that it's possible my orientation and feelings will grow and change, but as of right now, it's real to me. I know that as a human being, one of the most difficult things is to try to understand and accept things that are different from us, or that we don't experience. However, I think it is definitely best to keep an open mind because who are we to tell a person his feelings aren't real? Who are we to tell him that he's just making it up or that it's a disorder? If the person thinks his feelings are real, they're real. It doesn't matter what anyone else says because they don't know what this person experiences. Men can say women exaggerate how much periods hurt, and women can say men exaggerate how much getting kicked in the crotch hurts. But the thing is, in neither case can the person actually say if it's legitimate or not because they've never experienced it. It's just close mindedness and a refusal to trust or believe another person's experiences. Heterosexual people can't fully understand how homosexual people feel, and sexual people can't fully understand how asexual people feel. But in the end, I think we have to trust, believe, and accept others. It's not up to you to decide how legitimate their feelings are. I'm a chronic lurker of this thread but sometimes I feel that I just have to come out and say something. Hope you don't hold it against me.

This is a fairly random question, but how important is your sexuality to you all here? Do you consider it to be an integral part of your identity or not really?

*dying because of this whole convo*

...what an awkward question...  :lol:

:lol: Good luck with that.

No, why would that be weird? For a lot of people blatant displays of skin isn't that sexy.

That's sounds great.

Agreed, there was only one really homophobic comment, and it didn't even have that many upvotes.

Could you rephrase the question? It doesn't really make sense..

Is he single? Seriously, if you have so many reservations about it just ask him.

How old are you? And is it a date or just friendly? Maybe just ask him/her about it?

But sex does sell. That's why there are so many sex scenes in television and movies....

That sounds like your specific girlfriend, not everybody. I'm embarrassed just buying pads for myself or referring to my period in general. I know plenty of guys who compare their girlfriends and plenty of girls who compare their boyfriends, it's not necessarily a "girl" thing. And yes, it's  not wrong to want some alone time, but every person wants different amounts of it and it can create some friction or insecurity when they don't quite match up. Talk to her about it, in the nicest and calmest tone possible.  Hopefully she'll understand. 

I don't. Women perpetuate objectification of women too, it's not just men. Everyone's at fault when it comes to the media. 

Don't even get me started about the denial of asexuality as a legitimate orientation...

Haha yep she's great.

I feel like this person I follow on tumblr summed up my feelings about this pretty well. (I hope I can post this here >.>)

I definitely agree. I saw many many posts praising both Jonghyun and the original student who posted the petition. Jonghyun's praise isn't really taking focus away from the real issue imo, I think Jonghyun's goal was something along the lines of spreading more recognition about the movement, and he definitely achieved that.
