so we’re talking about this [the chicken thing] as in like a sexual connotation? so like are you asking because (hypothetically) your partner might happen to have a kink that you don’t necessarily share with them but don’t mind enough to be okay with participating because your partner has said kink? cause that’s what I got reading the post

I do not currently have a sexual partner. The post was intended to be about sex in general and the meaning of consent and healthy interactions. Perhaps it will change in the future, but my feelings towards sex are very neutral. I don’t think I am repulsed by it, but I’m not excited about it, either.

A lot of people seem to be adamant that “enthusiastic consent” is mandatory for healthy sex. I can consent, yes, but can I manage enthusiasm for it? I don’t know. Anything’s possible and, perhaps, with the right person and right situation and the right neurotransmitters at the right time, I’d be really into it. But if not, does that mean that any sex I might engage in is inherently unhealthy because I am apathetic towards it?

I think it depends on the situation. If the sex itself is neutral but you enjoy that your partner likes it, therefore getting some level of enjoyment out of the situation, if not out of the sex itself, that’s not a problem. 

If you’re doing it just because your partner wants it and not enjoying any aspect of the situation, that could be an issue.
