Frustrated with this "straight women aren& #39;t monsterfuckers we just have no choice but to be attracted to people who are bigger and stronger and more capable than us" narrative I& #39;m seeing going around
The men I& #39;ve dated have ranged from 5& #39;1 to 6& #39;7, my first serious male partner was someone bigger than me but who I could still throw over my shoulder and carry around
I& #39;m not straight but I feel like this is some toxic conflation of fear of the power of patriarchy with having some kinks about dominant men and size (and monsterfucking) that y& #39;all don& #39;t want to own up to
I& #39;m sure there& #39;s a whole lot going on with sublimation of patriarchal social trauma into giant man kinks and that is extremely legitimate, but taking that and jumping into biological essentialism isn& #39;t the way to go
Again, neither cis nor straight, but I feel like generalizing that all cis+straight women can only be attracted to big, physically powerful, physically dangerous men is, not great
IDK I worry I sound like a macho asshole talking about hauling boyfriends around, getting thrown over someone& #39;s shoulder is fun too, I am a switch, I don& #39;t want to sound disrespectful 2 that femme+sub+size+etc desire/identity constellation because it& #39;s very much a thing
But I feel like saying that particular orientation/identity/kink polarity is the biological default for straight women who are interested in straight men is https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😕" title="Confused face" aria-label="Emoji: Confused face">
Or the implication that all people who have that pattern of sexual desire are straight women https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😕" title="Confused face" aria-label="Emoji: Confused face">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😕" title="Confused face" aria-label="Emoji: Confused face">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😕" title="Confused face" aria-label="Emoji: Confused face">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😕" title="Confused face" aria-label="Emoji: Confused face">
