Republicans are drunk with power. What a stupid fucking idea. There’s no chance of banning porn. Then they wouldn’t be able to jerk to Trans women and feel shame after.

Trans women are hot, in case that reads as though the shame is correct. It’s not.

    The lowest my self esteem had ever been was when I was religious. I’d avoid porn and masturbation for months on end, 6-8 etc, but eventually I’d get a little too turned on and “succumb” to it. I remember hearing peers discuss it as something disgusting, and I considered myself too impure to consider having a relationship.

    I won’t say my self esteem is amazing now, but I feel much better about myself, and don’t think of myself as some terrible sinner who doesn’t deserve happiness.

      Thank you for sharing that. I’m glad to hear you’re feeling better. Just remember that no one is perfect. The older I get the more I reflect back to times or abuses that may have hindered my emotional intelligence. Getting to the root of my own self loathing or anger has made me realize I don’t need to continue feeling that pain of the past and bringing it to the present. It’s a struggle but I try and just be honest with myself and remember that I am the one that needs to know myself better, learn to rewire that past trauma, and move on with better senses and awareness through my experiences. Let the present mold your future and keep fighting the good fight.
