    No, it’s because you don’t understand trauma at all apparently.

    It’s not the cultural conversation around your first time that causes it to be traumatic.

    It is that your first time experiencing anything, is when you are most susceptible to create strong associations around it. Much more so in any intense experience.

    That’s how many phobias are created.

    I’m trying to tell you that this idea that trauma is intellectually malleable is extremely offensive, because that is not how it works.

    Yeah, go tell sone of your female friends in real life that karaoke is comparable to their first time.

    I’m sure you will, because they’re totally comparable and you’re not a troll, right?

    I’ll wait for your screenshot showing how they reacted.

    No further replies until then.

    It’s disappointing because we don’t talk more about what it should be like. We don’t expect men to do better about it. If someone had taught me how important it was and what things were at stake for women’s first time, I’d have done it a lot differently.

    Many women, if not nearly all, carry trauma from their first time as well.
