I was about to make a joke about creating a thread on a couple particular, controversial topics, then realized there was an incredibly high chance people would actually start to argue about it in here.

I think it's time for a new discussion to be incorporated into the thread anyway. At 544 replies, we surely can't have much more to say about Japanese virgins...? I hope??

So on the topic of virgins, if people are so concerned about 間接キス, why don't young girls seem to mind, for example, getting into the bath after their fathers? A 間接 something else comes to mind.

Did you go with romaji for your profile name because 愛人 would seem too, well....
(edit: two is too easy to mis-spell)

I think it looks better written in romanji because of the i-j-i combo. It's pleasant to look at, where as the kanjified version is somewhat unbalanced aesthetically.

@IceCream,
Much respect. Really.

Actually, last time I tried to use kanji in my name on a messageboard, the messageboard couldn't register it, and it made my account-name some random gibberish of accented characters -_-

Plus, 愛人 sounds kinda' slutty. In retrospect it might not have been the best screen-name, but when I was thinking, "Hmmm, what should my username be..." I looked around, and it was the first word I saw.

Haha Not slutty, but a little curious. Didn't know if there was some other meaning I was missing. Love/person. Good kanji Smile

Aijin と 愛人. 違いはなに?

What's so slutty about a 愛人, though. Seems like treehugger to me. 恋人 seems ten times more slutty. I've suddenly come to the realization that this is the first time I've "ever" used the word 'slutty'. You are bad infruence.

Must clean mouth.

Well, the only virgin I happened to have sex with was Japanese. Now, I did not know at the time she was a virgin. It was only after we met a second time by accident that she confirmed I was the first person she had sex with. The interesting bits: She was 35. She wanted it to be a one night stand after the fact (I'm not a one night stand kind of person). She was not good at sex. She had a paranoid personality. She did not want to have sex with another person.

Not sure what point to make of that though. I do think virginity is over rated in the minds of many men. In my mind, you'd want a lady with experience and you want to be her best experience. The reverse should also apply in the lady's case. In that virgin's case, she's not the best experience I've had. I am the best and worst she's had and is likely to have not through my skill at lovemaking but just through being the only experience. In other words, I could judge how well she did. She could not tell how well I did, but she thought I did good. Should she never have sex with another, she's left with that limited opinion of sex and would be all the poorer for it in my opinion.

To be fair, my opinion on sex is warped by the Jean Auel books Earth's Children. More specifically in "The Valley of the Horses" where the ritual thinking is a virgin's first sexual experience should be pleasurable. Therefore, a person skilled in the art of sex is sought after for the virgin's first time. This applied to men and women.

To quote some jokes (and lighten the mood even more):

"The ancients sacrificed virgins to the gods cause they didn't want to lose the ones with experience."

"Here's to virgins .... for ***** nothing."

"Virginity is like a balloon .... one prick and it's all gone."

Tongue It wasn't a knock on you. I was just having funny images in my mind of ice cream getting p'd off and attacking the chidrens of Southpark while Chef (kind of looks like a chef's hat too) sings "gonna make love to you virgin".

I kind of think that is why there are so many 16 year old girls with kids here in Kauai. You know, don't want to take any chances in case Hawaii gains independence and reverts back to the old ways.

I suspect 愛人 = マガモ(真鴨).

You know what they say: If it talks dirty like duck ... if it has the humor of a duck ... if it has the same sentences as a duck... and if it joined the same day as a duck ... then it's a duck.

Which would mean we're actually the 鴨s!

A thread goes from polygamy to The Meaning of Life in 500 posts! sounds interesting - I'm tempted.

Hah! I actually noticed that we joined on the same day a while ago. Ironic, but, one quick look at our ip addresses would show we live in completely different places in the world Smile

Icecream: I really enjoyed that post. It expressed exactly my thoughts on the subject, and my experiences. You worded them far better than I could have.

So you would approach a prospective woman, call forth a woman from your harem who then do battle with her until she was exhausted then you would bind her? Might make an interesting AV. Kind of reminds me of that lesbian "Ultimate Surrender" submission wrestling, now that I think of it.

I freaking hope so too.

===============================================================
@IceCream - I didn't come here to be convinced that goals aren't worth pursuing in their current form, I only came for advice. Don't take it too hard if it's not turning out the way you hope. For many points I say: "I agree. I'll keep it in mind." it doesn't mean "Ok, I don't care about that, NEXT!" It means I've read and processed what was written.

And lol@hangover. Go lie down on some green grass and take a deep breath of nature.

? Cause it's their dad? There's a disconnect there, sexual experiences don't happen with parents in "Happy Family"-type homes. The idea that a typical middle-class, peace-loving, civically responsible, hard-working Japanese family could have something like that is (in the cultural conscienceness) akin to someone saying: "So your mom breastfed you. You sick incestuous F**K." You would be like: "o.0 ... I think you're misunderstanding something here...."

===============================================================
IceCream Wrote:Let's look at the case you give for liking needy girls to be a preference. What can we say, logically, about this kind of preference? Is it a "basic" preference, or is it a preference based on other preferences?
+ By a basic preference, I mean, something that, if someone asked you, "but why do you prefer that?" you wouldn't be able to give any kind of reasonable answer. For instance, your sexuality. If someone asked you, "but why are you attracted to girls?" any answer you could give would end up being self referential (i.e. because they are girls). You're just simply attracted to girls, and that's that.
I'm attracted to girls because not only is it a genetic and biological imperative, but the culture and family I grew up never gave any indication that anything otherwise ever existed. Plus girls are soft and warm and smell nice. Smile

IceCream Wrote:* Ask yourself which type of preference your preference is. Be honest. Is it a simple preference, or do you like needy girls because you like the feeling of being needed?
If your preference is non basic, lets look at it a bit further.
I like to feel needed. People who are needy will depend on me for more. Ergo I have no aversion, but rather sympathy and/or attraction to needy girls.

IceCream Wrote:i feel that my existence has some meaning... it makes me fulfilled in some way to feel like i'm necessary. If i didn't exist, this person's life wouldn't be as good. They would be lacking something... i.e. me.
Yes. This is natural though.

IceCream Wrote:* So then lets see if we could take this further. Why do I prefer it to feel like my life has meaning, or that i'm fulfilled in some way? Well, i really can't think of an answer to this that isn't in some sense self-referential.
Not sure what you mean here. Human beings and social behaviors are communal for many possible reasons. Many theories of which, collectivism, tribalism, etc. have been published.

IceCream Wrote:It's that meaning comes, not from anyone else, or from attaining your goals, but the constant process of trying to attain them - the experience itself.
I agree, looking for love in Japan is far from my only goal in life, just one of the most important ones right now. (And don't say this is a straw man argument, I acknowledge and agree with your point, and then give some other information, not to deny your point, because FFS I AGREE WITH IT. But just, if nothing else, to say I live by but I believe, which is what I agreed with you on here.

IceCream Wrote:Think back to your first posts. Try to think clearly about why you need this girl. Why do you think she is the missing part of your existence? What kind of feeling is the type of feeling that you have when you're thinking about this thing that you so badly want? Take away the feelings of hope and belief that you have for your future that accompany this feeling. What does it feel like now? Is it a happy feeling? Or is it a painful, empty, bereaved, lonely, desperate feeling?
Fascinating question. It's kind of big so let me try to go step by step.

1. I don't feel like she's a chunk of my heart I'm missing or anything. But she's out there, and I could live better and be happier if I found her and (Gods willing) could make a loving LTR with her.

2. It's a feeling of hope for the future. I can look at some my own friends who are hitched and how happy they sometimes are with one another. I don't have that with anyone else. It's kind of a hungry feeling, like I can see a refreshing spring in the desert journey up ahead. Something that will make me grateul and will hopefully make the rest of my life less arduous. Of course I could fall into a quicksand pit 3 meters from the water. But I'm going to try to be careful and still perservere towards it.

3. What does it feel like now? Is it a happy feeling? I don't think so, it's like missing an arm in a world without prosthetic limbs. You COULD live a full without an arm. But you realize, from the world around you, that you could be much more, and perhaps wouldn't have to endure all that you have to endure. It can be a lonely feeling, to be by myself, even with friends I've had since elementary school, there's some things I can't talk to them about, that I can easily see myself sharing with my wife. Simply because I have the capacity to tolerate being by myself doesn't mean I ought to, nor that I should be content enough with myself to not let my otherwise "unneeded" needs drive my efforts.

IceCream Wrote:Or is it a painful, empty, bereaved, lonely, desperate feeling?
It's not quite that bad, but like needing to go to the bathroom, it's uncomfortable, sure.

IceCream Wrote:Effort's great, but so so many people have said this: that feeling is NOT going to disappear if and when you find this girl. Yes, you might feel happier and enjoy the process of living more. But, if you still have this basic idea that your feeling of meaning is going to come from this girl, and her needing you, you're going to be really disappointed.
There's plenty of things to give oneself meaning. A loving spouse can be an important part of it, but there's kids, career, a stable and well-looked-after home to return to.

IceCream Wrote:think, one of the reasons why this is, is because you will know in yourself that you aren't truly necessary to her.
Remember Aijin's anecdote about the old couple. Did that old woman really not need her mate? It seems like she did.

IceCream Wrote:She will remain distant from you in so many ways.
You don't know that. Sure spouses keep things from each other, but I disagree that you or anyone else, based on experience or know-how have some prognosticative ability to determine my future in this regard. Sorry.

IceCream Wrote:And, you will think that she doesn't need you enough
, maybe she has stopped loving you or started cheating on you, maybe you picked the wrong girl afterall, etcetc. because you still feel unfulfilled somehow.
Again, I'm not looking for complete fulfillment.

IceCream Wrote:That's why, I think, you need to learn to be fulfilled in yourself, and to be able to give your own life meaning, and learn what that means.
I'm satisfied with who I am at the moment, while simultaneously hoping to grow and achieve as I live longer. My meaning and driving force in life comes from many angles, but my hopes for the futures are a primary motivation.

@IceCream re: marriage example, I understand what you mean, certainly I or anyone could be tremendously happy with anyone regardless of sexual experience. It's my own high demands in this regard. I pursure the best in myself but make few concessions on my demands from my business associates, friends, or the world. I don't ask for everything, but what I ask for, I want.
