Thanks for the great advice about physical and emotional intimacy......I tend to forget that they are seperate and need to work on keeping both in the right place........

Victoria

Love Victoria

Had lunch with BF at his work today. I mentioned the topic at hand as I had told him about my hypothisis and how I wished I had you guys to bounce the idea off of. (content deleted at the request of mods) He said "Anything to further the cause of science!".

hope all are well and good (as can be expected).
Anne

sorry trix, I wont be keeping anyone posted on this topic. But was grateful to broach the subject with some. sorry to have offended or made anyone uncomfortable. that was not my intention: which is why I cleared it with the Mods BEFORE bringing it up.

We do also have a Sexual Disorders Forum and I believe a name change is in the works so it will be more applicable across the board for these types of discussions.

Thank you all for your understanding. I'm sorry about any confusion.
As a new forum and support team we are still firming and clarifying many issues that will come up.

There IS a forum here for sexual disorders - anyone seen it? Perhaps that could be broad enough to include those of us "disabled" by pain? I find it really tough cause touch most anywhere on my body causes intense pain due to allodynia. I think it's worth bringing up to the mods/Doc John or Kimmie Dawn to either add Sexually Disabled or something similar to the Sexual Disorders forum title, or make it a stand alone forum.

As long as people are adults and treat it respectfully, there should be a place for it here. If they don't then at least we tried, right? I'm sure we're not the only group of people here grappling with this, and there is a huge need to at least mourn the loss and hopefully find some new ways of intimacy, whether or not it actually involves making love.

Anne? Victoria? One of you up for presenting the idea? I think you've done a great thing bringing this out into the open!
