I never see any posts or questions about how gay men and women handle intimate times. I just happen to be bisexual. It is very embarrassing to be with another man because the bag is right there in your face.

Hi Joseph, I’m thinking higher waisted underwear with strategic cutouts would solve the exposed bag problem. I have high waisted crotchless panties that cover my bag and never need to come off.

Every morning when I enjoy my big cup of coffee I scroll through this site and this warm feeling just overwhelms me.

I never post anything (too shy and it feels like I don’t have anything of interest to share tbh) but I sure read a lot of posts from you guys and they are so informative, supportive encouraging and so so full of love and a big dose of humor.

I feel like part of the best family in the world (even though I am just sitting quietly in the corner lol).

I just wanted to share that feeling and say thanks to all of you for being so wonderful.

And also, please keep some fingers crossed for me this week. I have my blood test on Thursday, checking my CA 125 levels. Ovarian cancer reoccurrence fear unlocked again. I hate it!

Lots of love from Sweden

You never see any posts? Where have you looked, my friend?

You are new here. Gotta navigate the forums.

There are posts. There are real people here just like you, wanting just like you.

Fear not.

There is a forum for the community. Look it up.

There are both gay men and women writing in like you are.

They meet each other on this forum or the other which is above, in the icons.

We don't hear from them afterwards because they connect, talk, do their thing like we do.

Lgbt or not when you think about it anal is the only difference between us....just flick bag out the way same as women do going down on a man with a bag or vice versa....Time that's we all need to get our confidence back then nothings a problem

Well said, Ben.

There are also a lot of intimate clothing or accessories that will, in fact, take your mind off what might be either staring you in the face or flapping in the bang of things.

Being butt naked in front of your partner... seems old school.

And very scary. Gotta think outside the box. Be creative even if it's your first poke.

One of the best/funniest posts ever on this site was about your question. The question was about how to stop the bag from slapping your partner on the forehead. 😂 Sorry, no help to your question, it just made me remember reading that post when I was new to the site. I think everyone is adult enough to figure out how to get around the bag, good luck.

Try a body wrap or maybe a horizontal Stealth Belt.

That was my thought as well. It doesn’t exactly matter who is sleeping with who, we are all dealing with it the same when it comes to intimacy.

You're right—discussions about intimacy challenges in the LGBT community don’t always get enough attention, even though they’re just as important. Being bisexual and navigating intimate moments with men can definitely come with some unique concerns, and feeling self-conscious is totally understandable. Right now, focusing on yourself is crucial. One thing that might help is taking your time to communicate and build confidence in those situations. Sometimes, engaging in conversations beforehand and setting the right mood can make things feel more natural. Online spaces can also be helpful for easing into things at your own pace—platforms like site for hookup allow you to connect with others while boosting confidence through thoughtful exchanges. You're definitely not alone in this!

"Thoughtful exchanges?" Is that what they are calling random sex with random partners these days? 🤭😋😆🤔.
