Your best metaphor for sex.

I have never had it so I can only go off what I think I would be like. to me that would basically be someone trying to play a scratched dvd in a dvd player. Your start off by getting the dvd that has been scratched because you proably touched it to much over the years without thinking to much about it. You insert the dvd into the dvd player and it doesn't work. So naturally you take it out and try to fix it by maybe putting some kind of cleaning liquid on it or maybe you even rub the disk to somehow how fix the scratch.
You then try again and usually the disk still doesn't work. the dvd player might even shutdown which means you know your never going to get that disk to work with that dvd player. So you basically put your disk back in it's case and watch tv. Usually you might still want to experience what you were wanting to experience by watching that dvd so you go to a streaming site that will play what you were were trying to watch, only it works better because it is using technology that you haven't personally messed with.

That is...not correct.
 
It's like one of those intense sneezes that you can feel building for a good few minutes before it finally fires. These days I sneeze 2 or three times in a rapid staccato. If it ever happens at the wrong time while driving I'll probably get killed.

Just reminded me of this delightful vid:

You might not be doing it right.
Nowadays not at all -- I'm too old for the horizontal mambo or bump'n'grind.The obsession with the act seems akin to alcoholism for me. Better for me to abstain. I like to think I'm not an orgasm addict.

I get my dopamine hit from more cerebral pursuits.

1. Great song but "Why Can't I Touch It?" is the best on the album.
2. Overrated for some, not for others. Amazing how different people experience things differently, ennit?
3. For a cerebral pursuit: ponder the inaccuracy and inanity of comparing sexuality to alcoholism, the superciliousness of dismissing others' sexual behavior as obsession or addiction, and the simple reality that the importance of sex in an individual's life is purely subjective.
 
Yes, it's just the way I feel. I've never had much interest in sexual physicality. Been there, done that, didn't bother to buy the t-shirt. I now just regard it as innate programming that I can override. Unlike alcohol, sex isn't the cause of and solution to all of life's problems. I wouldn't presume to tell anyone else what to do with their reproductive organs although the mass media and advertising industry don't appear to share that view. For me, it just seems to make life a whole simpler to abstain. And no, I wouldn't date a robot.

Is it possible that you might be A- sexual(I think that is the right term) People who are born without any real strong sex drive. For me I have sometimes wondered if I was like that. While I enjoyed to masturbate and I always felt loney not to have companship the thought of having to spend alot of time during sex actually seemed kind of boring on some level.
There is also the issue that I don't find nudity all that sexy. What a girl is wearing has always been a bigger turn on for me.

I guess I've never had a strong sex drive. I've only had sexual intercourse when a woman has been interested in me and as I'm not fussed about it, it felt mechanical and a sort of futile going through the motions, which is kind of a turn off for a sexual partner. I'm certainly not interested any more -- probably just age. I don't masturbate BTW though really nobody needs nor wants to know that.

Did you ever consider the idea that you might be gay? I got to admit I thought about that alot with me as well. I once almost even hooked up with a guy because at the time I was so desperate and lonely I think I was open to just about any kind of connection. Didn't do it though because the idea just didn't sound apealing to me the more i thought about it but even today I still get confused about what exactly I man into when it comes to sex. I sometimes like the idea of being dominate and sometimes summisive. My idea of a pefect girlfriend is a girl next door nerdy type but sometimes I even think I wouldn't mind being that person.

Nope, I don't find men attractive and certainly not male genitalia -- ugh. :barf: I find women attractive but I don't feel the need to attempt to fulfil the reproductive act.

I would say you sound lonely mostly. My advice -- join a club, participate in some activity, learn something new and stop obsessing about being a virgin. Perhaps join a gym and try to lose some weight. If you meet a soul mate, fine, if you don't, well it's not guaranteed.
