One of the worst parts of having sex as a man is the anxiety leading up to it.

Want to add that I’m discussing casual sex specifically. It does not apply when you’re doing it with the same person over and over.<br><br>I’m sure many of you have experienced it. It feels like a mental and emotional burden. It’s like thinking about a calculus 3 problem. If you don’t want to, you could just avoid sex, but I’m sure that at some point or another, you’ve wanted to and felt this anxiety leading up to it.<br><br>You hang out with a girl, you hit it off, you feel like there’s mutual interest, you want to take it to the bedroom. <br><br>Even if things are going well in your interactions with the girl, there’s a lot of rejection and anxiety leading up to the actual act of sex.<br><br>You have to check the vibes.<br><br>Test the waters.<br><br>Try your luck.<br><br>Make your move.<br><br>Take that leap of faith.<br><br>Do you want to have sex with her? Has she agreed to it? She has not. Try to make something happen.<br><br>You have to initiate the conversation about whether you two are going to have sex. <br><br>You have to make that first move. It’s rarely the girl.<br><br>It’s like a mental and emotional burden. You have to play the role of initiator. Even if it seems like she’s into you and wants to have sex, you still have to do it. <br><br>Approval needs to be granted.<br><br>The burden lies on the guy.<br><br>If you don’t do it, you probably won’t have sex. <br><br>It’s like that joke on the “Pursuer” and the “Pursued” from Rick and Morty.<br><br>Men are almost always the pursuers.<br><br>The worst part is, most times, things don’t go as planned.<br><br>The girl doesn’t want to have sex with you.<br><br>She ghosts.<br><br>She disappears.<br><br>Things don’t work out.<br><br>But even if things do work out, there’s still that mental and emotional burden of initiation. It’s that anxiety leading up to sex that you can’t shake.<br><br>If you don’t make that first move, nothing will happen. If you don’t want to make the first move, you need to play the waiting game. Wait until the girl makes a move.<br><br>It’s good to get a girl who approaches you, but most times, that’s not the case.<br><br>If you want to have casual sex, you almost always need to initiate.<br><br>And if you don’t initiate, you probably won’t get laid.<br><br>That anxiety leading up to sex is so confusing and stressful. It’s a burden. I’m so glad I’m not a man.<br><br>Edit: I accidentally posted this on r/ChatGPT instead of r/IHateWomen at first. I had great conversations with people there. It’s interesting to see how men and women think about this topic. I didn’t get any white knight comments there lol.
