Sleepovers

[rareboy]

So my g nephew is apparently having a first sleep-over soon with a group of buddies.

This took me back to being younger and particularly around the awakening of puberty.

I remember these being an important rite of passage for socialization and development, all about staying awake and watching movies and snacking and then later the fumbling and shared forays into young adulthood with smoking, sneaking a beer and learning about jerking off and determining sexual preference.

So how was it for others?

Life changing? Positive? Negative?

I have a longing to return sometimes to this much more simple and exciting time in my life and to re-visit some of the occasions when I wish I had done much more if I had been bolder.

We did all of those things - socializing, staying awake, movies, snacking, talking big to try to be the smartest/most grown up.

I was a young teenager in a homophobic town during a homophobic age. To be called a "poofter" was the worst thing ever, and none of us dared do anything that might make anyone suspect we might lean that way. I was overwhelmed with the urge to feel one of the cute guys but I wouldn't have dared even suggest it. I'm now pretty sure I wasn't the only one with those urges that we suppressed.

Wouldn't it be nice to go back to a simpler time, but without societal constraints. I first saw another man ejaculating when I was an adult.

In my day we called them scout camps
Same things happened

We camped out in the back yard, but no one had us in their house. There were some dirty magazines and talk but nothing else. There weren't any homosexuals and they would have been shunned and ridiculed at that time.
