if you love what you do...

for me the greater challenge is that so many kinksters are actually very tedious people who really want to tell you about their sex lives in lieu of an actual conversation

A friend of a friend once talked me into going to a munch, where some scenes were going to be done. I'm interested in seeing new things and try to be open to having my horizons broadened, so I figured why not?

I have to say, not only did I find it intensely boring, it was also about as much of a turn-off as I can imagine any in-person experience being.

usually a munch is for discussions and not for scenes. often in public bars and such too

[-] deweydecibel@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Yeah, munch is basically kink recess. It's a get together for the community that is almost explicitly non-sexual, just because it's good and useful to have some time set aside for that.

Now, to be completely honest, I've never seen the appeal. I'm not in the scene to talk about the scene. But I appreciate the benefits of them for people that want that social aspect.

[-] cactusupyourbutt@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

same, Im not really that interested in that kind of munching

[-] 7of9@startrek.website 2 points 10 months ago

I'm aware of that now, but at the time didn't know anything about it ... it was being done in a community space where there was a bar and plenty of space for activities.

[-] yokonzo@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

Yeah, I can't imagine doing a munch where there's scenes involved, that just seems weird, but the ones I've been to just serve as like lunch with some like minded people who just happen to be talking about cock and ball torture in an iHop

[-] 7of9@startrek.website 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah, that was just what the organisers called it I guess.

[-] deweydecibel@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Yeah, I've encountered this. Not everyone in a community is a tedious, kink-obsessed person, but they will be the ones there the most, and it feels like the only thing they actually care about sometimes.

I'm not shaming them, enjoy what you enjoy, but I feel the same about them as I feel about people who make weed a cornerstone of their personality.

[-] pearsaltchocolatebar@discuss.online 2 points 10 months ago

It's true of anyone who makes an aspect of themselves their entire personality. They're kind of insufferable.

Because being a kinkster is a hobby. It's different to how society treats sex.

People super into hobbies, I mean. Like someone who's so into homebrew or model trains that they have abstruse knowledge and use jargon to the point of incomprehensibility.

[-] jdf038@mander.xyz 2 points 10 months ago

People who geek out about sex. I mean no issue with that. I'm mostly jealous.

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 25 points 10 months ago

Not kink exactly but I had a boss who abbreviated Due To/From (when one segment of the business owes another for something) as DTF and I never figured out if he was trolling us, or had just never seen it used.

[-] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 11 points 10 months ago

I don't know what it means and I probably shouldn't ask.

[-] sadbehr@lemmy.nz 17 points 10 months ago

Down to fuck. A crude way of saying "m'lady/m'man, would you like to copulate with me?"

[-] jdf038@mander.xyz 3 points 10 months ago

"Down to... (have some super) fun (times)"

Except the f doesn't mean fun and the parenthesis are added by me. But if both parties consent I'm sure it would be a lot of fun.

[-] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 10 months ago

You didn't ask, but means Down To Frolicking

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 19 points 10 months ago

It’s not that bad you just have to start with a 4 letter acronym that means 6 words and from there you pick up a bunch of new acronyms that already mean something else to you and will randomly be used for their normal meaning without warning just to test if you’re paying attention

[-] stevehobbes@lemy.lol 13 points 10 months ago

I think this belongs in c/nottheonion.

[-] alt_xa_23@lemmy.world 18 points 10 months ago

This is satire, so it wouldn't belong there.

[-] stevehobbes@lemy.lol 2 points 10 months ago

Oh, I thought it was the place for everything that wasn’t The Onion.

[-] girl@sopuli.xyz 22 points 10 months ago

Not the onion is for real news that sounds like it should be an onion article

[-] NoneOfUrBusiness@kbin.social 4 points 10 months ago

No the hard times is also satire.

[-] stevehobbes@lemy.lol 1 points 10 months ago

I didn’t realize I was in c/thesatire

[-] nUbee@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Are Reddit and Lemmy kinks? Because there are so many acronyms used here and there.
