The desire to box women into categories that seem to "make sense" to men is the universal here.

Do you have trouble sleeping? Because I am having trouble figuring out why you would dig back seven years to respond to the OP with THIS /\ /\

For real.

When somebody digs up an old thread that had a comment in it from back when I was trying to convince myself that my marriage was ok. 3 years before my divorce. Barf.

Check this crap out...

In my external life however, I like well planned adventures...not the kind where you spontanaously hit the road with no map, but the kind where I know where I'm goin', how I'm getting there, and where I'm staying. But I like a good thrill out there in the world. Seeing new places and things, rollercoasters, concerts, thunderstorms, all that kind of stuff.

^ 2012 me. ^

Translation: "The only person I have as a possibility for sex is a man I don't really want to have touch me if I can help it. It's best when he doesn't expect anything unusual and we get it over with in the typical 5-10 minutes so that I can go to sleep." ("I prefer comfort." LOL! "I prefer sleep." <-- Truth.)

Amazing what a difference it makes when you've got someone that you have enthusiastic consent for, as a bedmate.

Anyhow. I think I've always been ultimately someone who does like some excitement, but with lots of forward planning, educated on all possible risks, and with as much risk mitigation as possible. If I can believe that my odds of doing something in safety are pretty good, then yeah, I like to have fun. But I don't consider myself to be as wild as I imagine some people think I am. And there are many risks I'm just not down to mess with.

I usually don't manually go way back in the archives; I just click threads that are recommended (at the bottom of the page) if they interest me.

hmmm... tough call. Being adventurous can mean many things. Some may be adventurous in life to cover up their non-existent sex life.

I've heard other people say the same. What is weird to me about this, is that I don't get those recommendations. If I scroll to the bottom when I'm in a thread or subforum, I see nothing. I do have a sidebar of recommended threads but they are never old, inactive ones, they've all got recent posts. And at the bottom of the page of "General Forums" or all the listed subforums, I get a feed showing the threads with the most recent posts, popping up and scrolling as people respond in real time.

So whatever this mechanism is by which people keep raising old threads from the dusty, murky past like this, I wonder if it's a setting I've got turned off or something. Or maybe it doesn't show up in a Chrome browser.

Some may also have a non existant life outside of the bedroom, but do almost anything in the bedroom.

I get the related thread notifications and I get confused because the board software highlights the thread in yellow at the bottom of the page you are reading and ask you to add to the conversation. But then board members and moderators come back and ask why you added to the thread. Other message boards have default software that ask if you are sure you want to respond here instead of starting a new thread because the last activity was X months ago.

Op based on my experience, the two do not go together.
