(using an alt account because people I know follow my main)
Hypersexuality, previously known as Nymphomania, is a medical condition that severely increases the amount of sexual desire and urges one has. Depending on the person this can be up to a point of annoyance or distress.
I only recently realized I had this through an outside perspective and it manifests as a constant sexual drive in me.
So, AMA! And don’t be shy, there are no questions that are off limits
Edit: thanks for the questions everybody, I had a great time :D I will still answer more, I just might need some time to come around to them
How did you get your friends to join Lemmy?
They originally got me into Mastodon as a federated service. I later fled Reddit and stumbled upon Lemmy as an alternative and really liked the Fediverse aspects of it. I recommended it to others and mentioned I had made that switch a few times, so some of my friends tried it out too and made accounts.
I know some still use it rarely and I know they know my account, so I didn’t want to run that risk of posting this on my main
Can you tell us about one of the worst decisions you’ve made as a result? How’d that situation turn out?
Is twice a day already hypersexual?
Hypersexuality is less about the amount you do it and more about your desires and if you can control them. Masturbating twice daily is quite common for teenagers for example (I know some that used to do it 5+ times/day and aren’t hypersexual). If you feel like having sex/masturbating doesn’t reduce your drive at all or that it might make you do things you don’t want or would regret, you might be hypersexual
How many times have you sexed?
Many. Although as a trans woman a good amount of that is rather unusual sex
a good amount of that is rather unusual sex
I’d like to know more about this, would you elaborate?
Well, I’m a trans woman. Most people I date are trans woman. If you take testosterone blockers as part of a hormone feminization therapy you are going to inevitably loose some penile functionality. So penetrative sex is not very usual for me. But I prefer doing BDSM activities way more anyways. Due to that sex doesn’t really end with somebody cumming, but whenever everybody is too exhausted to continue instead.
Overall I would consider that comparatively unusual, especially the kind of kinks that make up most of it
Do you think not having that point of climax contributes to your hypersexuality?
For me, no. It’s hard to archive because of the testosterone blockers. And doing a good session of heavy impact play will relax me more than an orgasm ever will anyways.
It obviously looks like a direct cause, but it’s quite irrelevant in my case
Here’s the real question that has always surprised me with the answers when I’ve met folks that meet the criteria.
Does it make you happy?
Depends on what you mean
Having hypersexuality itself? It’s just the norm for me, very neutral feeling about that.
If you mean having sex, then yeah, definitely. I still very much enjoy that
Do most trans women have penises?
I am into hole not pole, and I don’t like butts.
It depends on if they’ve had “bottom surgery” as it’s commonly called.
What’s the polite way to ask?
Honestly, there isn’t one. Especially as a man. We have this concept of “chasers”, basically creeps that fetishize and mistreat trans women, and every way to ask this makes you look like one. You could maybe put this into your dating profile or be very upfront about it, but that also will reduce your chances of success
