I have a question, that...you'll probably understand my reasons for posting anonymously once you finish reading.
The local culture is very open and laid back about sexual interest. It's different as hell from my own home, where men who show sexual attraction are viewed as disgusting perverts and assumed to be dangerous, while people don't even fucking think about women having an interest in sex beyond wanting to have children. Some of the posts I've seen here would get everyone involved labeled sexual deviants for the shit they talk about in the open.
My question is, how do people adapt to it? I'm here doing my damn best to keep my mind out of the gutter because I've been taught thinking about anyone you don't want to date like that is disrespectful as hell and fucking creepy, but then I turn around and see people openly asking for hookups or rating each other's asses, and instead of people calling that shit skeevy, they either go along with it or treat it like a funny joke.
I know it's not prudishness, believe-you-fucking-me, my life would be easier if I was just naturally shy or reserved or whatever. It's an extreme form of culture shock, and I wish I didn't end up feeling like a dick constantly over the kinds of mental images I get from both the way people act in public around here and some of the things the prismals hand out as fucking party favors.

Let me know when you'd like to get together. My apartment isn't much, but I'll turn it into a ship.
I'll even make coffee. Not great, but it's coffee?
no subject
I'm already meeting up with someone later today, so maybe tomorrow?
Unless you want more time to study coffee making before having it judged, that is.

I'll message you my address, and you can just stop by. I really need to find something useful to do with my time. I have a tendency of being a hobo.
As long as you know my coffee is not the greatest, it's not a problem. I'll probably spend tonight studying up on pour coffee, though.
