Autistic dude thinks that he can get away with not bathing/getting wet because his mum says that he doesn't have to shower that day, but later on needs to get wet to take the measurement. Rants that it's unfair, and that his sister is not put out by the situation like he is because she doesn't mind getting wet. Focuses entirely on the physical cues that he interprets as signifying that his sister doesn't mind getting wet without explicitly stating that he doesn't, she does, and therefore the situation is unfair.

Why is their mom making them do an underwater weight test? Is there any point to doing that? Is a normal scale not accurate?

I think it's specifically body fat percentage that was being calculated.

It's not fair for him to take a body fat percentage test alongside his scantily clad sister since it gave him a chub and that might skew the results?

I think.

Yeah, I think the thing with the hair-pull and the clothing is that those are signs that suggest (to him, anyway) that the sister really enjoyed the experience, because it was like a swimming outing for her and hence fun or at least acceptable. He doesn't explicitly state that he dislikes/has sensory defensiveness towards water, presumably because he has poor theory of mind and doesn't realize that it isn't intuitive, but I think his intent is clearly "my sister really enjoyed this and I really didn't, so that's unfair." There are still some weird gaps in the story, like why the mom decided her children needed an underwater weighing test, but who knows what's going on there.

how can you post just the title to this one? it's incredible

quote:

Background info : we've been dating long distance for 4 years. I wanted to save my first kiss for our wedding and so we did that. He is 5 years older than me.

He was my first boyfriend, when we started dating I told him I wanted to save my first kiss for marriage. When we did pre marital counselling at his church and then at mine I was alerted mentally to a few red flags ... when I was younger I had big issues with my virginity, and thinking there was no point to me existing or going to church if I wasn't a virgin. I also felt to a certain extant that sex was dirty. But I thought I had delt with those issues clearly I hadn't.

He, my husband, has quite a wild past in christian terms, he partied WAY too much, did A LOT of drugs and slept with ALOT of girls ... he became a Christian when he was 25.

Anyway when we first had sex, I felt normal at first, but when I realised I wasnt a virgin anymore, it got bad. When we came back from our honeymoon, I spent all day crying while he was at work because I wanted to be a virgin again, and I felt disgusting and dirty and worthless.

Because we didnt even kissed for 4 years, he is so eager to have sex all the time, his sex drive is crazy, which has been horrific for me, because even though sex feels really nice now, there is this wave of guilt that I feel immediately after we're done. I will often sit in the bath trying really hard to wash myself because I fell so dirty. Or some times I cry myself to sleep.

My self esteem issues are the worst they've ever been, I feel so relieved when he's not at home because I know I get a break from sex. I hate it so much when he touches me because I'm not sure where it will lead, a cuddle on the couch, or sex.

I feel so dirty when I'm around people at his church, because they know we're married and so therefore they know we're having sex which makes me sick to my core, I want no association to sex ! I look at the younger girls in his church with envy, wishing I was a virgin like them.

Because I had to move for him, I have no support system, all of my friends are back home and I have no one to talk about this ! Also I feel far too awkward bringing this up with my friends.

tl;dr: I always feel so disgusting and dirty after we have sex ! I don't want to have sex ever again. We have a great friendship that could help sustain our relationship.

Triad FMF (3 months as triad, but gf and I are together 5 years) - Man loses erection, how can we help?

quote:

My girlfriend (27) and I (F, 31) have been seeing a man (35) together for the last 3 months. We're polyamorous, so it's a relationship, not just about sex.
He sometimes has trouble maintaining an erection when the three of us are together, and also when it's just him and I. My GF says it hasn't happened to her when she was with him one on one. I'd say it's happened every other time we've had sex, and we see each other 2-3 times a week.

He has no issues getting hard, but will go soft during sex, at some point. A few times right before penetration, once when I was giving him oral. We haven't exactly talked about it at length, but when it happened last time, he acknowledged it. This is how the convo went.

Him Oh, I don't seem to be functioning this morning?
Me: It's ok! Is it a mental issue?
Him: No.
Me: Oh, is it a medical issue?
Him. No. Me: Ok, why does it happen?
Him: I don't know, stress from work? Could be a number of things.

We cuddled/fooled aroud after this, and he was able to get hard and come with my girlfriend later. I didn't keep pressing it, cause I read that it's not ideal to discuss it during sex, right after it happened. But I'd like to bring it up. I understand the penis isn't a clockwork machine, that this happens from time to time. But it's been happening a lot for it to be considered 'normal' and I'm getting to a point where I'm hesitant to initiate penetration because it's not satisfying for me.

What can my girlfriend and I do to help him? How should we talk to him about it?

tl;dr: 2 women, 1 man in a relationship. Man loses erection during sex, but only in group or with me. What can we do/How to approach talking about it?

I think it's okay to ask about why someone's having sex problems during sex as a part of, you know, hopefully improving the sex or seeing if something is a problem for your partner? This seems like a weird thing to complain about.

A really good way to give someone performance anxiety (and thus, increase the likelihood of a shy dick in the future) is to grill him about his dick the moment something goes amiss.

Yeah, to be fair, it really needs to be one question. "Hey, are you okay?" is fine. "WHY ARE WE NOT loving ACCEPTABLY" repeated ten times in various permutations is not.

Not from /r/relationships, but still pretty horrifying

https://www.susanjfowler.com/blog/2017/2/19/reflecting-on-one-very-strange-year-at-uber

Some choice quotes:

quote:

On my first official day rotating on the team, my new manager sent me a string of messages over company chat. He was in an open relationship, he said, and his girlfriend was having an easy time finding new partners but he wasn't. He was trying to stay out of trouble at work, he said, but he couldn't help getting in trouble, because he was looking for women to have sex with.

quote:

When I joined Uber, the organization I was part of was over 25% women. By the time I was trying to transfer to another eng organization, this number had dropped down to less than 6%. Women were transferring out of the organization, and those who couldn't transfer were quitting or preparing to quit. There were two major reasons for this: there was the organizational chaos, and there was also the sexism within the organization. When I asked our director at an org all-hands about what was being done about the dwindling numbers of women in the org compared to the rest of the company, his reply was, in a nutshell, that the women of Uber just needed to step up and be better engineers.

Please note that in this one, the "she" is an HR rep for Uber...

quote:

When I pointed out how few women were in SRE, she recounted with a story about how sometimes certain people of certain genders and ethnic backgrounds were better suited for some jobs than others, so I shouldn't be surprised by the gender ratios in engineering. Our meeting ended with her berating me about keeping email records of things, and told me it was unprofessional to report things via email to HR.

quote:

On my last day at Uber, I calculated the percentage of women who were still in the org. Out of over 150 engineers in the SRE teams, only 3% were women.

Startups are the worst, Uber is the worst

For real. I can't imagine trying to do my job while getting constantly harassed and undermined by a bunch of garbage men.

Fwiw, I work for a tech company as a software engineer too. Except my employer is not a bunch of garbage tech bros, so that kind of poo poo would NEVER be tolerated.
