It Takes More Nuance Bc It Depends - Tumblr Posts

I feel like when reading we get more of the emotional context, often from all involved parties. Visually, all we see is the physical/carnal parts and whatever tone can be communicated through environment and expressiveness, which is often left behind in favor of shock value / sex appeal anyways. In reading, a 1st person or 3rd omniscient experience can tell us what one or multiple involved parties are thinking during/before/about the encounter, prioritizing the emotional intimacy and deeper connective meaning of the moment over the tangible aspects.

Does that? Make sense? At all? Someone help.

Asexual people, does anybody else feel very uncomfortable watching sexual scenes (on tv series, movies etc) but reading them doesn't feel as bad?

Yes I feel like this too

No I don't feel like this
