Re: Sexuality in Communities 

@Ulfra_Wolfe@witches.town @mawr @literorrery I was gonna say, it sounded like you were agreeing more than not. 💜 Oh, for an edit-toot button. ;)

I do think we need to allow for it being different for different folks. There may be folks who honestly don't want to cuddle if it can't lead to sex, and that has to be okay too, just at it should be okay for (for instance) interest to be exclusive to one gender presentation. That's another reason why early-communication is helpful.

Re: Sexuality in Communities 

@indi @mawr @Ulfra_Wolfe@witches.town At the risk of shifting over into another line of work, it sounds like we've got a couple of problems that we could do a better job of addressing. How do we help people communicate needs ahead of time so that incompatibilities are caught early? How do we do that in a way that doesn't discourage people from experimentation? And how do we show support for varying levels of comfort and safety with communication, as well as varying needs?
