Oo interesting that there's a difference in reflectivity
Lemmy can be a bit confusing if you're not a huge nerd like a lot of us are 😅 I'm sure people here (me included!) will be more than happy to help though, if you have any questions?
I've always thought that "hazel eyes" meant, well, hazel eyes 😀 As in a sort of a reddish or lighter brown.
Looks like the 'ole Oxford English Dictionary (for American English) says
a reddish-brown or greenish-brown color, especially of a person's eyes: [as modifier] : the laughing hazel eyes were serious now.
I'm sort of weak for very light blue or grayish eyes, which is a bit funny since mine are like that. I blame my first girlfriend from about 3000 years ago: her eyes were even lighter than mine. But otherwise I don't really pay all that much attention to eye color, though.
Ooo, legs. I like legs.
Great to have you here ❤️ hope you enjoy your stay
Well hello gorgeous ❤️ Welcome to the neighborhood
Life stuff is the worst. Here's to hoping things get better ❤️
Love your lips though! You look so kissable
Oh humblebrag, you know you're pretty 😀 And you so are! I'm not even into guys (for the most part anyhow) but I've got functioning frickin eyeballs
What about hot bi guys? We… uh they’re pretty cool too.
Dude, own that bi-ness ❤️
I don’t think NSFW content is bad, I feel like in fact having different sections for NSFW posts makes community bigger because it attracts people.
Yeah definitely! Porn / erotica has been a huge factor in the popularity of the whole internet, too. Like you said in your post, currently lemmynsfw is mainly specifically porn; it's an "easier" format than more conversation-based stuff because Lemmy really doesn't have critical mass yet and the majority of people just mainly lurk and don't comment / post (like it is with any social network.) Contrast this to the fact that there's smutty chat subreddits that have more users than the entirety of Lemmy 😅
I did notice that a lot of people have “sex is dirty” mindset (elsewhere not here) and then they can get pretty rude and underhanded like anything goes because basically they associate sex with something dark and secretive.
Ugh I get what you mean. Weirdly enough it feels like younger folks are a bit more in that mindset than us old farts, like attitudes have gotten more conservative instead of less when it comes to sexuality. Well, at least partially, there's good things too of course.
But yeah anyhow, could be that your best bet right now could be to try and be active on [email protected] (or others like it, I actually don't know what the options are here for that stuff) like you've already done, try to strike up conversations? Might be a bit of a grind but you already managed to "activate" people a bit which is great!
This could just as well have been written by me. Especially the bit about how "people who know themselves and are unapologetically authentic about it are just lovely" really resonates with me; one of the benefits of being middle aged is that people do tend to sort of find themselves as they get older, and just be way less stressed about how they seem to others.
This is Sea People slander and I will not stand for it.
I actually subscribe to Eric Cline's theory that the whole Sea People thing is bunk and that the Bronze Age collapse was caused by a lot of things just going wrong at the same time. He's got a few lectures floating around on YouTube, they're really interesting
