How has your sexual experience influenced your art?

Rather than my own sexual experiences, this piece was based off of friend's experiences, and how people talk about sex online. I'm often engaged in social media, both regular and NSFW content. Seeing comments towards women exposing their bodies or even wearing some revealing clothing, they are often filled with either harmless compliments, or very thirsty, desperate, and descriptive messages. Screenshots some of these women show of personal DMs revealing guys sending message after message, going from nice to extremely aggressive after no reply, or straight up vulgar from the start.

With people I know personally, they seem like they are round the clock meeting new people and hooking up. Almost on a daily occurance. Sometimes with multiple girls back to back at unreasonable hours.

People glorify sex and crave it to a point where sometimes, that's all they care about. They spend so much time desperately trying to obtain something and shape their existence around it. As if sex is the end all be all...kind of like death.

If you ask a guy what they would do if they had a limited time to live, or if the world was ending, a large amount of them would say something involving sex. People beg to not die a virgin. There have even been fictional characters who have, "died for pussy". People praise sex and even women as if they're a religion. And much like religion, people will put all their efforts into following it till the very end.

Why is vulnerability important to the act of sex?

Allowing yourself to be vulnerable during sex enables you to not only feel better during it, but express yourself at the same time. Vulnerability opens the door for kinks and experimentation, from basic things like anal sex to the more controversial BDSM.

At the same time though, vulnerability also welcomes judgment in some cases. Assuming you're in a relationship, being vulnerable with your body is a much easier thing. If you're someone who likes to explore their horizons, this could be something that’s harder to do.

Both ways of living are acceptable, but a person should try their best to either read the mood or the person.

What is the purpose of sex?

Some say it's for pleasure. Some say it's to connect with a significant other. I feel like my opinion is somewhere in the middle.

Personally, I haven't had many sexual partners. There's been a lot of oral exchanges between me and a few girls, but I've only had one real sex partner who was a long time girlfriend before. After the relationship ended, I realized sex isn't all that. I love receiving and giving oral, but sex as a whole, I can live without.

I say that, but there are days where my sex drive is beating me over the head. Those days where I want a women to look down on me while she stradels me and uses my body. I get to look at her and gaze at her body and the bounce of her breast, and to hear her moans. Those days where I could have a girl bend over for me and engage in the best position, because the ass is beautiful, whether that be on a man or women.

Even though I want that some days, it's hard to go out and get. It could be because of my lacking social confidence, or it could be because I enjoyed having sex with a significant other for so long that I lack the confidence to do it with a stranger. Honestly it's probably both. There is something special having sex with the person you love. When you have sex with someone just because you're horny, it's getting the job done. When you're having sex with someone you love, you're getting the job done, but you're also enjoying the intimacy and emotion that comes with a relationship. Somehow, that makes it better. I think the only thing that trumps that no matter what is the rush of public acts.

So for me, I guess it just depends on the day.
