1) I never had sex with a girl who has the same nationality as me
2) I started to have interest in porn when I was more than 30yo
3) I sometimes watch porn movies for the plot (I skip the sex scenes)
4) I love romcoms
5) I've used my lockdown days to make a site to share subtitles for porn movies

1- Ghost in the Shell was my first contact with the hentai world. Although the film did not deal with that theme.

2- I love female butts, you could say I'm ass-phile.

3- Marvel-Disney did enormous damage to the film industry by infantilizing its audience.

4- I am a video editor. I'm photoshopped too, so I love doing porn-themed designs.

5- Of course, I am educated with women, I have never overstepped, I have not been rude or have talked about topics that have to do with pornography. That is why I am always in the friendzone.

I don't know if I already posted here, but if I did, this will be a remix anyway:

1- After 11 years of no sexual/romantic interaction of any kind with women (It just didn't happen...it wasn't an ideological decision or some bullshit) I stopped watching porn with the simple intent of getting aroused and imagining myself in the situations I saw, bt I actually started to pretty much link my whole sexuality to the experience of porn watching alltogheter.
Basically my sexuality has become jerking off to porn. It was probably a natural defense mechanism caused by seeing the years passing and my desires still going unfullfilled...it was probably too painful to keep hoping and I pretty much surrendered to this reality.
As a result I don't even feel asamed of watching lots of porn...it has just become my only way of releasing the sexual tension every person has.
Please remember I'm not a virgin as I had sexual experiences before the 11 years of unwanted chastity, but after all that time it pretty much feels like becoming kinda of a virgin again and at my age thyat's ridiculous...no woman would like an inexperienced man (not a boy...a man...).
I'm not angry or anything like that...I just surrendered to this reality.

2- I'm a male but I always preferred the company and friendship of women ('m speaking of non sexual matters). I have such admiration for women and I find them very wise and fun to talk to. They make really good friends.
Naturally I balance my immense respect and restrain shown for the female gender by watching very intense (and sometimes rough) porn, to satisfy the more animal part of my psyche (we all have one) in a convenient and safe way (that's why I think porn has an impotant role in society...to help us indulge in those fantasies that are not appropriate enough to share with others, similar to how we play violent videogames without actually being interested in performing violent acts)

3- I survived an immensely strong dose of prescribed sleeping pills (8-10x the normal dose) that was done for recreational purposes (naturally I did most of it while under the delusion of sobriety the drug caused). Having read millions of stories of people falling from balconies, dying of respiratory depression, choking on their own vomit, banging their head violenty, crashing with the car on a tree and so on under the influence, I feel immensely lucky.
I still feel the experience has left some weird side effects in my vision but at least it killed my interest in hypnotic compounds, the use of wich I now strongly discourage.

4- I have 2 specific recurring dreams in which I'm somewhat capable of understanding I'm in a dream and enjoying the experience while in it; it's very hard to describe...in most dreams you feel like what you're experiencig is reality (until you wake up), and that's the case with all my other dreams and nightmares.
Naturally I love when I'm lucky enough to have these specific 2 dreams.

5- I have always suffered from random episodes of derealization (you can read more on wikipedia). The first years I was afraid of it but with time I learned to accept it and not be scared of it.
I now accepted it as a part of me, having surpassed the famous "fear of going insane"

Hugely interesting!
Are there still some anomalies in your vision (with the bionic retina) or would you describe your vision as pretty much the same as a natural 10/10?

I yell strange and inappropriate things when I’m in an uncomfortable situation.

I’ve never been able to fold a paper airplane.

I’ve been homeless before.

I once hit a UHaul truck (it was moving) with a slice of pizza.

I suffer from telephobia aka phone anxiety. I do all I can to avoid talking on it. I’m so happy that texting, email, and online ordering exists.

1. I can read, speak and also understand hungarian language.
2. I have never been to Ghana.
3. I was born in a hospital.
4. My blond sister is older than my brunette sister, but they are both much younger than me.
5. I am extremely misanthropic. My sweetest dream is being alone forever in this planet.

[DoctorNo]

1. I can stand on my head, and acknowledge capital ideas.
2. I once pulled a G.I. Joe out of a guy's ass. He was out of uniform.

That only counts if you can do the Vulcan salute with your toes (and no: the big toe alone doesn't cut it)...

26.) Like Justice Beaver I also appear to suffer from telephobia; regardless of the effort I put in to be prepared I always experience anxiety when using the phone to talk and also prefer text based communication.

27.) Even though I've been driving for just over two years now I still have anxiety when I get in behind the wheel.

28.) If I was to describe myself with a movie quote it would be; "We are not among the living and so we cannot die but neither are we dead."

29.) I have a 'death date' where if I don't die before then I'll elect to be 'put to sleep' on my 77th birthday.

30.) I have a theory that a mixture of personality and trauma/upbringing bonded me to loneliness because I've read that a prolonged or sustained amount can cause insanity and/or death and unless I went insane long ago I'm obviously still alive.
