how the signs fuck and fight

*this applies for sun and/or mars*

for more on the sexual side of mars, check this link, this link and this link

aries:

fucking - fiery; pounding, hair pulling, good, solid jackhammering. pure adrenaline and naked amoral lust. will wear you out, the type most likely to have angry sex/sex after fighting and take their aggression out on their lover’s body

fighting - bullies; highly aggressive and confrontational, there is only one ‘right way,’ and that way is determined by their point of view. they’re very “my way or the highway” types. definitely ones to yell to get their point across

taurus:

fucking - physical and tactile; scents, licking, caressing, ass slapping, pounding and touching. also relies on traditional gender roles where the man initiates and the woman serves the intimacy and affection. good with their hands. revels in the sensuality of it all

fighting - silent sulking; quietly absorbs the heat of the conflict yet will either make his or her displeasure known by a refusal to communicate openly, often to the point of not speaking at all. then when least expected, they explode and get very mean and inconsiderate

gemini:

fucking - suggestive and experimental; also very good with their hands. will ask a lot of questions about what their partner likes, what he/she wants more of, and definitely ask about what sexual fantasies their partner has. likes to experiment with different sexual positions in a session. most likely to use toys

fighting - feigned indifference; whether they feel differently inside or not, they pretend they don’t care about whether they win or lose and can actually win an argument by acting as if they are giving in without really agreeing, which robs others of power or influence by their “playing dead” posture

cancer:

fucking - emotionally expressive; the stuff of movies and love songs-vibrant, playful, erotic, high sex energy. uses sex to heal emotional conflicts, are experimental and take sexual risks, and has sexual fun and intensity.

fighting - passive-aggressive; they want power and control but they don’t go about obtaining it openly. plays games and often employs a submissive façade during the conflict and then employs vengeful tactics and harmful tit-for-tat payback games

leo:

fucking - direct and bossy; they’re straight forward about their sexual desires, and they’re be straight forward about their sexual limits or lack thereof. very much alpha males/females. likes to show off sexually and be adventurous and uninhibited. will do it almost anywhere luxurious and exotic. most likely to fuck in public

fighting - dominating; they want only their opinion to be heard. rather than resorting to open abuse, they need to win and will aggressively maneuver and compete to ensure that opposing points of view are quashed by utilizing powerful verbal and nonverbal behaviour to maintain control in the fight.

virgo:

fucking - hidden sluts; will be restrained at first, but with the right partner and in the right situation will be as primal and intense as the most depraved scorpio…more on this here

fighting - compartmentalizing; in general, anger is beneath them. relies personal logic and facts and put conflicts neatly in a mental shoebox. but if pushed, they can be like a snow-covered volcano, coldly scathing and vicious

libra:

fucking - companionship-based; very intimate and erotic but only within a relationship with a person who leaves them feeling accepted and loved for who they really are (warts and all). needs to maintain a secure bond so they can be powerfully validated emotionally and sexually. very idealistic

fighting - avoidant; they simply don’t like becoming unsettled. they commonly shut down and close off to emotions, disagreements, and situations that might involve conflict and will do nearly anything to avoid fighting openly

scorpio:

fucking - primal; passionate, and intense. sexually raw and emotional, spontaneous and unpredictable. they pounce when the time is right and they will push your boundaries. can be too much emotional and sexual drama

fighting - savage; bullies similar to aries, but far pettier. they thrive by controlling and dominating others. will use name-calling, threats, demeaning jabs, and sarcasm are tools commonly used. gets power in underhanded ways and are very toxic

sagittarius:

fucking - spontaneous; needs the randomness and excitement of having sex at the drop of a hat. will try any and all positions they can think of and have sex in the weirdest places. the less planning, the better. very vigorous, casual, and fun

fighting - exploratory; they don’t mince words and can be very fiery blunt and hurtful, but they utilize conflict to keep relationship dynamic and strong. the point for them is understanding and growth and they view healthy fighting as an educational experience.

capricorn:

fucking - bosses; either an alpha male who indulges his depraved side behind closed doors, or a business-minded female who longs to be ‘taken’ by a man and ravished like it’s the last time on earth that two humans have sex. either way, they’ll get down to business like no one else except for aries and scorpio. very elemental and raw

fighting - cool calm and collected; like virgo, they can be generally even keel, but when pushed, power at all costs is the name of the game for them and they can be incredibly abusive and will attack where it hurts. not above giving people the silent treatment and ignoring their very existence

aquarius:

fucking - very hot and cold; interrupts the seduction pattern by teasing, sexual experimentation to the 9th degree. dirty talk; turns their partner’s mind on and gets into their head with all sorts of erotic imagery and promises of sexual savagery

fighting - invalidation; when they feel attacked or unnerved, they fight back by challenging and devaluating any reasons the other partner has for feeling the way he or she does.

pisces:

fucking - connected; very intimate and romantic. sweet, gentle, rocking love with lots of eye contact and loving kisses. either very vanilla or very exploratory. loves to please their partner

fighting - victimization; they take whatever is dished out instead of speaking out or standing up honestly and assertively, they deny, make excuses, or blame others to avoid responsibility. they also often display emotions (e.g., crying out of frustration, hurt, and shame)

What Your Favorite Shakespeare Play Says About You:

Romeo and Juliet: You’re either a hopeless romantic or you really like YA lit, or both. Or you’re in high school and just haven’t read any other plays yet.

Hamlet: You’re gay, emo, death-obsessed, or some combination of the above. OR you’re one of those really pretentious types who like to talk about Shakespeare’s ‘masterpiece’ but I don’t think there’s a lot of those on Tumblr I hope

Othello: You’re either in high school in your Edgy Phase where you think Iago is cool, or you just like the speeches.

Macbeth: You either want to be Lady Macbeth, are gay for Lady Macbeth, or think the witches are rad, which they are.

Titus Andronicus: You like slasher movies and also laugh in the face of death, probably.

King Lear: You’ve been around too long and have Seen Some Shit. You like to go for long walks and watch sad movies that you know will make you cry. You feel a lingering sense of despair and are yet ever enchanted by the continuing beauty in a grim and thoughtless world. Or you stan Edmund

Julius Caesar: You took Latin in high school and have very strong opinions about the Republic. You will cry about long-dead Romans at the drop of a hat and you are not ashamed.

Antony and Cleopatra: You’re gay, love war movies, or you only like it because of ‘I wish you all the joy o’ th’ worm’

Coriolanus: You’re REALLY gay and probably most of what’s up there about Julius Caesar applies to you. You have a lot of Feelings also.

Timon of Athens: You love your friends. SO much. Too much

King John: You’re a medieval history nerd in love with the time period, have a weird relationship with your family, or you just like Lady Constance a whole lot.

Richard II: You’re gay, on a first name basis with a lot of dead monarchs, or you really enjoy David Tennant.

Henry IV, part 1: You like buddy comedies and having a good time. You cried when Hotspur died and felt no shame in this fact. You probably also like the entire Second Tetralogy but this one is just the most exciting.

Henry IV, part 2: You watch movies and read books for the theme rather than for entertainment value.

Henry V: You can recite at least one speech from this play from memory, if not more (and will gladly do so if asked). You might be a medieval history nerd, or maybe you just think the battles are cool. You either love Tom Hiddleston or you hate Tom Hiddleston.

Henry VI, part 1: You like Joan of Arc. A LOT. You’re very defensive and excitable. You think banter is funnier than well-played jokes.

Henry VI, part 2: You like Game of Thrones. You have mixed feelings about Humphrey of Gloucester.

Henry VI, part 3: You will defend Henry with your LIFE but he’s not your favorite character. Your favorite is either Margaret of Anjou or Richard of Gloucester. Also, you think death is funny.

Richard III: You’re a self-hating misanthrope, or you’re one of those people who liked Iago in high school but grown up.

Henry VIII: You like Wolsey, probably.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream: You think romance is hilarious and no, you’re not romantic. You actually think love is stupid. Alternatively your favorite genres are fantasy and science fiction and you have Thoughts about the line “though she be but little, she is fierce”

The Comedy of Errors: You’re easygoing. You love a good wholesome comedy without a lot of weird dark stuff. Puns are your favorite thing. You also have a soft spot for family (especially sibling) dynamics.

Twelfth Night: You’re gay as hell but don’t have enough angst-ridden darkness in your soul to enjoy Hamlet. You have all the love of sibling dynamics mentioned for CoE but MORE SO. And you have Opinions about the plight of Malvolio.

The Taming of the Shrew: You lowkey ship Katerina and Petruchio but don’t know why. You secretly love this play but don’t say much about it because it’s really distasteful to modern audiences. Or you spend a lot of time and energy defending it to modern audiences.

Much Ado About Nothing: You wish it would get more notice in the fandom besides the ‘Kill Claudio’ meme but also have to bite your tongue because the meme is actually pretty funny.

As You Like It: You’re gay and you hate the ending of this play. You have rewritten various versions of your own ending.

The Merry Wives of Windsor: You really, really love John Falstaff.

The Two Gentlemen of Verona: You like Romeo and Juliet. And Twelfth Night. You like both of them better than this play, you just feel like someone should stan for Two Gentlemen.

Love’s Labors Lost: MAYHEM IS YOUR LIFE. Also you like a touch of depth to your comedy. Jokes are all well and good, but it’s the ending that really brings the point home.

All’s Well That Ends Well: I don’t actually think anyone likes this play, honestly.

The Merchant of Venice: You like being Conflicted and want a lot of themes in your comedy, dammit! Intrigue? Attempted murder? Racism? Homosexual undertones? Moneylending? Cross-dressing? Lawyer fraud? Weird fairy-tale-esque betrothal games? You want ALL of it.

Measure for Measure: You either love the Duke or hate the Duke. You will protect Isabella with your life. You also kind of like being Conflicted but prefer (somewhat) happier endings than the Merchant crowd.

Troilus and Cressida: You love the Iliad. You actually don’t care about the title characters as much as you care about the war. Most people have not even heard of this play and you will explain in full detail.

Cymbeline: You like fairy tales. Actually you love fairy tales. You’re close to your family, but you have a lot of self-reliance.

Pericles: You probably like mythology and old drama. Also you would kill a man for Marina and think she deserved better.

The Tempest: You loved Harry Potter as a kid. You love adventure stories the best, and have a dreamer’s spirit. You have a lot of opinions about the treatment of Ariel and Caliban, and you almost certainly cried when Ariel left for the last time.

The Winter’s Tale: The use of ‘exeunt, pursued by a bear’ as comedy lowkey rubs you wrong but you’re still slightly enthused about claiming the line for your favorite. You love nature and feel at one with it.

rp is using big words in a para, pausing, opening a new tab, and googling said word because even though you know the big word, you don’t wanna look like a fucking idiot.

41 Emotions as Expressed through Body Language

Found Here x

41 Emotions as Expressed through Body Language unique This list, while exhausting, is soooo not exhaustive; it barely scratches the surface. And each entry could easily become cliché (if it isn’t already). But, it should be enough to get you started. Want more? Start watching people (not in a creepy way), and take notes of what they seem to do when expressing different emotions. Your repertoire of expression will double in no time. PS—do not use these for actual, real-life body language reading; you will fail. These are strictly novelistic.

Awed -Slack -jawed, raised eyebrows, staring -Frozen, slack body language (Self? What self? There is only Zuul.) -Take a step back and put a hand to his heart

Amused -Smiling and throwing back her head laughing -Slapping her thighs, stamping her feet, clapping her hands -Shaking her head (That’s so wrong!)

Angry/Aggressive -Sharp movements, like shaking a fist, pointing, slashing, or slamming a fist on a table -Flushed face, patchy red blotches -Tension in neck—chords standing out, veins throbbing—and jutting or tucked chin -Arms akimbo, or clenching fists -Entering someone else’s space and forcing them out -Poofing up with a wide stance (I am big! Very big!), arms wide (Bring it!) -Lowered eyebrows, squinting eyes -Teeth bared, jaw clenched, snarling

Annoyed -Pressing lips together into a thin line -Narrowing eyes sometimes with slight head tilt (Why do you still exist?) -Rolling eyes, often paired with a long-suffering sigh

Attentive -Slow head nodding with a furrowed brow -Leaning forward, toward the speaker, and sitting up -Taking notes -Looking over the top of her glasses

Bored -Resting his head on his palm, peeking out between the fingers, maybe even slipping so his head “accidentally” hits the table -Tapping toes, twirling pencil, doodling, and otherwise fidgeting -Staring out a window, or at anything remotely more interesting (Which is everything …)

Confident -Arms clasped behind body -Head lifted, chest out, standing tall -Walking briskly and making firm, precise movements

Confused -Tilting head with narrowed eyes -A furrowed brow -Shrugging

Contempt/Superiority -Lifted chin (The better to look down the nose.) -Pursed lips, sneering, slight frown -Circling a shoulder, stretching her neck, turning away—anything to indicate she doesn’t see the person as a threat or worthy of her attention -Grabbing her lapels, or tucking her thumbs in her waistcoat (See this clothing? It is much nicer than yours.) -Dismissive hand-waving

Cynical/Sarcastic/Bitter -Twisted lips or a half-smile -Sneering, sometimes with shaking the head and other defensive body language -Pressed lips with a slight frown -Eye rolling

Disgusted -Crinkling his nose -Curling his lip and/or showing the tip of his tongue briefly -Flinching back and interposing a shoulder or turning away -Covering his nose, gagging, and squinting his eyes shut—hard—for a moment. (It assaults all the senses.)

Enjoy.) -Pouting or frowning (I’ll cry if you don’t give me what I want—don’t test me, I will!) -Crossed arms and other defensive/frustrated body language (I will not let that terrible idea influence me!)
