I sat down on the lawn and wept.

*hoards*
Oooooooh.
mmmm useful!
we were taught about how David and Jonathan were ~best bros~

#that time there was a gay couple in the bible and nobody talked about it ever
*hugs!*
*hugs back* Thanks, darlin’ :)
congrats on the new girlfriend!
Thanks! She’s pretty awesome, pretty special, pretty in general. All sorts of wonderful. And follows my tumblr :p *blows kisses in radioactivesoup’s direction*
- the prostate is not way up the rectum
- it is not like the cervix in the vagina
- a toy/penis/whatever isn’t going to stab it when deep drilling
- although the whole rectum is so compact any movement in there is likely going to indirectly stimulate it somehow
- fingers are much more effective for direct stimulation
- it’s walnut sized but it feels like a much smaller bump
- orgasm from prostate stimulation alone isn’t impossible, but it doesn’t happen every time
- prostate =/= clit
- prostate = g spot is more accurate
(it’s the orange gland)
fucking read this :D
knowledge!
how do people still not know this
Reblogging for great justice.
All writers need good information - especially when writing about experiences/bodies not your own! See also Minotaur’s blog.
Ah, thank you for asking, and sorry for worrying you! Yes, yes, I’m perfectly fine. I’ve just been distracted with life and things going on - good things! I have a new girlfriend! :D *waves to radioactivesoup* - and I’ve gotten a kind of writer’s block thing where I can’t think of anything to say, or if I have something to say the words just stop, so I say nothing. And tumblr is a void that I find difficult to just tip my toe into so I’ve not logged on at all. But I should say something, as I am developing friendships here (I hope) and I shouldn’t leave y’all hanging.
Please have a Troughton as an apology.
