    Is it normal for ADHD people to find it hard to cum because you think about laundry?

    Jump

  • Good call! It's something I've been thinking about for a while, partly because of comments from other ADHD people. We do some bdsm adjacent (I don't really know where the line is...) stuff cause be partner likes to be treated rough. I guess it helps keep me focussed, cause there's more variety and stuff to do, but it also leads to a lot of meta thinking and second guessing "was that too much? Was that too soft? How long have they been in that position and is that going to actually harm their neck..."

    Maybe being in a sub role would be kinda relaxing because of the lack of control / responsibility, but I prefer the Dom/top role, and my partner is 100% the other way. I do think it's easier when there's more novelty in general, just being somewhere different or my partner wearing some new outfit I find hot helps. But making stuff different everyday would soon get exhausting, while changing my imagination is quick and easy.

  • That's absolutely true. If your comment had said "That can be a trauma response that manifests in some NDs lvining in an NT world. It's not always innate." I wouldn't have replied.

    There are a depressing number of people who make very absolute claims that all the problems of neurodiversity come from the world not being designed for them. While I understand why it sometimes feels like that, it's absolutely not true for many people with ASD, ADHD, etc.

  • I have to actively keep myself focussed on sex by fantasizing some scene or story to myself. Just actually having sex isn't enough, not because I'm not into it or not enjoying it. It's just that if I don't fill my mind with something sexy it's going to get full with chores, or dinner options, or the way the bed squeaks... And then I'm completely out the moment.

  • Oh man, that's soothing. A recipe, for a meal, and it explains what I need to do, in the order I do it, and the pictures actually show the cooking. This is some next level stuff. I hope it catches on!

  • My ADHD family and I rush through things and interrupt each other because if we don't were likely to forget something important that just popped into our mind. But by interrupting we made the other one forget what they were talking about.

    Living in a world that isn't adapted to my needs can be exhausting, but it's not the reason I rush through things. That's pretty innate to my neurodiversity.

  • As a certified manflu sufferer, I gave this an upvote. I know that there's been a lot fun made at guys 'overreacting' to colds, but maybe it's time to listen to the victims. Occasionally, I get a cold where i just feel a bit shit, tired and full of snot. But most of the time a cold shuts me down entirely, I can't think, talk nonsense, if I try and drive I almost crash. I'm a compete mess. Sure, maybe my body is just overreacting to the virus, but so is anaphylaxis and that kills people.

    I'm pretty sure that labour is worse, but...

  • I remember those. Awful.

  • How would you tell to your friend that AI has, with no doubt, lowered his skill?

    Jump

  • Maybe you could ask him to measure how effective it is, by doing some tasks with ai and without, and measuring the time. If you want to make it non judgmental you could say it'd be helpful for you to hear if it's really worth the effort of trying some ai yourself. And then if he sees that it doesn't end up saving (and sometimes costs) him time, he might accept it.

  • I agree. It's a sliding scale with generative AI currently being the lowest point (for now at least, once the dataset is a slop ouroboros, it's only going to spiral downwards). Lazy, corporate filmmaking is bad, but lots of film noir classics were basically pulp movies knocked out to meet demand and are now widely regarded as classics. Because there's a difference between even the most committe overseen, cashgrab product that was still made by a human with their own strengths, tastes and biases vs a genai slop factory.

    But my aversion to ai slop has heightened my awareness of it, which in turn has made me notice how many things are slop adjacent. I notice myself writing a message and realsing I'm using a bunch of standard phrases and structures. I'm not an llm, but there are times when our individual responses aren't that different. I look at stock photography, where a complex family dynamic has been reduced to "teen sits on bed looking down, woman gestures angrily" and I realise that we've been traveling down this road for a while now, ai has just cut the brakes.

  • I respect your experience, and I'm sure that is true for you. I'm not sure what country you're from, or what generation. These sorts of things are pretty dependent on a lot of different social factors outside of gender. My experience has been that, in terms of groups conversations being dominated by sex chat it goes gay men, lesbians, straight cis women, straight cis men. But its super socially dependant - most of the men I've spent time with are total nerds, maybe army guys or jocks are different? Living in Britain, France and Germany the norms around those sort of conversations have been very different, and I bet America and Japan are different again.

    My bigger point was you can't infer how much something pre-occupies a person by how much they talk about it. I've know women who enjoyed talking about relationships and sex with friends, but were happily single and not that interested in it beyond gossip. While some guys would never discuss it directly but pretty much every decision and interest in their lives had come out of a desire to meet and impress women.

  • SEO is actually one of the things that started me thinking about this. Although those dumb overly long cooking blogs were (previously) written by humans, the incentives led to a style that was no longer genuine. Much worse were those shameless fake review sites that existed solely to promote some VPN or antivirus. Sure, a human might've put that together, but so many words with so little regard for meaning.

  • Oh God yes. The studio push for reboots, remakes and adaptations already runs the risk of by-the-numbers 'creativity', but those live action remakes are the natural progression. Not even a new take or reimagining, just a lazy, safe cashgrab.

  • Gender-affirming care massively reduces the difference, but transwomen are still likely to be faster than AFAB women:

    Prior to gender affirming hormones, transwomen performed 31% more push-ups and 15% more sit-ups in 1 min and ran 1.5 miles 21% faster than their female counterparts. After 2 years of taking feminising hormones, the push-up and sit-up differences disappeared but transwomen were still 12% faster. Prior to gender affirming hormones, transmen performed 43% fewer push-ups and ran 1.5 miles 15% slower than their male counterparts. After 1 year of taking masculinising hormones, there was no longer a difference in push-ups or run times, and the number of sit-ups performed in 1 min by transmen exceeded the average performance of their male counterparts.

    But what season you're born in also influences your strength and fitness:

    There were significant main effects of birth-month for cardiorespiratory fitness (F=4.54, p<0.001), strength (F=6.81, p<0.001) and power (F=3.67, p<0.001). Children born in November were fitter and more powerful than those born at other times, particularly the summer months (April, May and June). October-born children were stronger than those born in all months except September and November. This relationship was evident despite controlling for decimal age and despite no significant inter-month differences in anthropometric characteristics.

    So maybe it's not fair for all those poor summer babies to compete against unfairly blessed autumn athletes?

  • I think women are very interested in sex, and pre-modern times the stereotype was that women were the horny gender.

    But I think what you're describing is more about gendered social norms in conversation. The fact that (some) groups of men don't talk about sex that openly is because sexual prowess is tied up with social status and most men wouldn't feel comfortable discussing sexual problems, failing to satisfy their partners, not really enjoying sex or anything like that for fear it makes them less of a man. And because of that, guys talking about how much sex they're having, or how they tried this new thing and their lady went wild for it, kinda come across like they're bragging.

  • Yeah, I got into a discussion on this topic and my suggestion is that sports split on other categories, not just gender. Boxing already does weight classes, which is good, more sports should do that. Can't we have sports for people under 5'8"? I'm sure there's lots of shortkings who'd love to compete seriously in a league where there height wasnt an detriment.

    This approach seemed to offend both sides of the trans sports debate.

  • Which countries combine high quality of life and strong equality?

  • Looking at this data Norway seems to have low levels of economic inequality, low rates of poverty, and a high median disposable income (behind Luxembourg but around that of France and Austria).

    Its far from perfect, but I imagine social inequality for stuff like gender and race is pretty low, officially speaking at least. I get the feeling that Scandinavians can be a big negative about foreigners, but I have zero firsthand knowledge on that.

  • This is absolutely not a subject I know about in detail, but I feel like there are credible reports of the printed guns.

    And I agree that if the government wanted to absolutely control all internet access and devices they could make it very hard for anyone to use it without going outside their supervision. But "banning all Linux devices" is quiet a different level of authoritarianism than "force android producers to install government software".
