At what age were you into L & C

In various longer or shorter relationships, I only had one explicitly negative experience (in this case I asked for a little bit of wrestling). In the biggest part the reactions were positive to very positive, maybe neutral in a few cases, but - apart from this one case - always friendly.

Maybe try contact improvisation classes? Or a "thai and fly" or "therapeutic flying" massage? I also was once lifted by a professional cuddler. I really hope you get to experience being lifted soon.

Those are good points (emotional aspects of lifting). I think that the breaking of taboos plays a part too. I and a second forum member think that it isn't "manly" to be in the role of the liftee. He's more strict than I am, though.

It wouldn't really bother me to be lifted and carried by a woman, even a bigger and stronger one. Frankly, the embarrassment might be a turn-on. That means that I'm not REALLY that against it. It's not THAT much of a taboo.

I've been this way since I was a kid. Then, bigger and stronger older female cousins would lift and carry me, and one of my dad's friend's daughters would too. It was a semi-taboo, but I still enjoyed it. You don't have much of a choice if they're four to eight years older before you turn 13.

I would have definitely had a session with a Las Vegas professional lifter when I was in my early twenties. She was known to be one of the best in lifts and carries. I would have met up with the women who messaged me without a contact number too because they wanted to have me join their lifting fun. I'm still not averse to the idea.
