1. sex against your will Does count against your cultivation in canon i think bc of that cave scene? with the aphrodisiacs? iirc? here intent doesn't matter.
2. i wouldnt be surprised if the rules were rigid in a way that disqualifies anyone with a vagina bc... those things just kinda discharge no matter what. aroused or otherwise. it feels against the rules even though it would be an unfair standard
3. edging is absolutely sexual and i think it would be against the rules (here intent DOES matter) but i think an argument could be made that the intent is to frustrate yourself, which is not intent to release...? so?
4. voyeurism on the other hand, as long as you dont get aroused physically, shouldnt count against you i think. thinking about the concept of sex doesn't, and in this case you are removed from the act physically and intentionally. 👍
as i see it: physical involvement is against the rules. sexual intent: a separate consideration but also against the rules.
nodding nodding nodding thank you for your thoughts
trueeee i havent read that scene (or any of them other than bridge chapter. truly canon? i dont even know her.....) for a long time but that does seem to be the implication.
they really do just discharge whenever the hell they want. only the driest pussies may ascend to heaven
non-sexual edging allowed ONLY! love this take actually you can only touch yourself sexually and keep your cultivation if you are using it to torment yourself and test your resolve
VOYEURISM WIN! 👍 you can be a sexual freak as long as you keep it in your pants and just sit there like a weirdo with your hands folded the whole time you watch and then go home and go to sleep
basically dont do anything theres nuance. horny nuance
