Do you consider this sexuality shaming?

Question

Recently I posted on the sex and relationships topic asking about losing my virginity at 15. In that I explained how I was sexual even at the young age of 8 (I was not molested nor do I have psychological problems). I received many rude and discriminatory responses and was very hurt. I don't identify hypersexually but rather fluidly. I am comfortable with my body and all sexual topics. Do you consider this situation as sexuality shaming? Feel free to comment!!

Answer

Biologically, humans are very sexual beings. It's innate, we were born with it. Some people are ready when they're 11 others are ready when they're 25. Sexuality is NOT something shameful, it is NOT something that people should be afraid of talking about, just because a "book" says we "have to fight our urges". Keep doing you!

Answer

I feel 8 years old is way too young it would make me sick if my 8 year old was sexually active. Are you a bad person? I'm sure you aren't I don't have you for it I just wish you would've waited.

Answer

Definitely sexuality shaming. Sorry you had to go through that.

Answer

I'm just curious, do young kids now think of masturbation as sexual or just pleasurable? The latter is totally normal. The former would make me think that something was potentially amiss.

Answer

I didn't see the original topic, but I don't think it's unreasonable for others to express concern over an 8 year old being sexual. I hope they weren't ugly about it...but I know how things get on Glow sometimes. Try not to take too much offense. You know yourself and your life much better than a bunch of strangers on an app.
