Life Hacks/Dante's sexuality

This is the new format for showing what the individual character's reaction will be to sexual advances with them depending on their sexual history, sexual knowledge, sexual quirks, and their relationship with you. It contains some of the information from the old system, and also goes into detail about how they might react to individual sex acts giving various ways you might approach them. Please note that there will always be a chance they might reject you regardless of relationship score depending on your approach and their mood at the time due to other factors. Also note that the scores say a "recommended" relationship score before pursuing a sex act. It is possible to get them to agree with a lower score if you use the best approach (especially if you have high social skills.)

Sexual history

Dante's mother has made it clear to him he is free to explore his own genitals at any time in the privacy of his bedroom or the bathroom, but also knows from his mother that most people freak out when children do that sort of thing. He agrees with her that there is nothing wrong with him touching himself, but has developed a very paranoid view of the world outside his house so far as what other people might think if they find out. He has been placed under the impression that everyone other than his mother is like she says his grandparents were on this subject.

Dante has come to realize there are a lot of things his mom does different from other parents, but has accepted that her methods are actually better than the rest of the world and based on what she has learned from the small number of people who know what they are talking about. He feels ashamed of sexual acts while interacting with people outside his family because he is paranoid about how they will react and that his mom might get in trouble and/or he will lose friends, but does not think there is actually a problem.

Once, while he was taking a bath with his sister and asked his mom about the slit between his sister's legs where a penis should be, he was invited to touch and explore his sister's privates and did so as she explained to him how a girl's privates were different. He figures his mom would not be averse to him repeating this exploration of her body on his own, but has not done so for fear that too much interaction with his sister and the things she likes will increase the amount of effeminate traits he has that he is so embarrassed about.

Sexual Knowledge

While Dante's mother has never hidden anything in regards to sex from him, she has only told him what he has asked and he has not even thought to ask about sex and reproduction. Due to his malnutrition, he has not developed the level of curiosity and inquisitive skills to draw out that line of thought.

• Knows what female genitals look like?: Yes
• Knows how babies are made?: Knows about pregnancy, hasn't questioned how the baby gets there in the first place.
• Knows what sex is?: No
• Knows about semen?: No

Dante seems to have some awareness that women have some degree of choice in when they get pregnant, but hasn't questioned the mechanism behind how this happens and has never even thought a man might be involved in the process at some point.

General recommended approaches

Dante will have a dramatically different reaction to Xander Vs. Lexi, being incredibly open with Xander in general where as he will be a lot more closed off with Lexi.

Xander: As soon as Dante figures out Xander does not have a problem with him showing off and touching genitals, he will open up a great deal and become very attached to Xander. So long as it is something that stays between the two of them, Dante will easily agree to almost any sex act, especially if it is something he thinks Xander wants to do and will help him to gain his approval. He will hesitate slightly on oral, anal, and being ejaculated on at first but can be easily convinced with Xander's assurance. Everything else he will eagerly engage in right from the start. The thing he would have the most trouble with would be kissing, and if he accepts being kissed by Xander it will be very emasculating to him as there is no doubt Xander is the more dominant in the pair.

Lexi: Dante will see Lexi as just another girl in his life, like his Aunt, and be rather stand-offish. He will be slightly won over though that she is an outsider to the family that seems to accept their lifestyle. He will agree to most sex acts Lexi wants to do with him, but he will not be especially enthusiastic.

(NOTE: Unlike other characters, Dante will not have a relationship requirement to do certain sex acts with. If you are introduced through his mother, he will hero worship you and look to you as a role model regardless of his relationship score, and with his general submissive personality this means he will accept absolutely anything from you so long as it does not involve injuring him.)

Reaction to your sexual contact with his aunt and sister

Dante, as much as he was worried about interacting with his sister too much, it was not because he felt touching her pussy was a bad thing. Rather, it was because he thought interacting with her period was making him girly. With Xander present as the dominating force in his life, he will feel better about touching Ellie's pussy himself (and be quite curious about it in fact,) but more to the point he will really want to share it with Xander.

Note: Having Dante have sex with Ellie is a good part of trying to butch him up, where as refusing him that and playing with his genitals in the same kinds of ways you do Ellie's will go a good way toward sissifying him.

His reaction to specific sex acts

While the above can help you to predict how he might react to sex generally, below is how he will react to specific acts.

At the heading of each act, there will be a recommendation on witch relationship stat(s) will be most effective in getting him to lower his guard against this specific sex act if they cross a certain threshold. This threshold will be given a "low/medium/high" rating rather than a specific number. Although, there is a rough number each rating is meant to represent, as outlined by the table below.

• Non-existent = approximately 0-10% (you are not going to see this designation appearing much.)
• Very low = approximately 5-20%
• Low = approximately 10-40%
• Medium = approximately 30-70%
• High = approximately 60-90%
• Very high = approximately 80-95%
• Extreme = approximately 90-100%

Note: The categories do overlap. This is to represent the wiggle room given to the writer in a case by case basis in interpreting their current score. Also, it is entirely possible to achieve consent for a sex act while falling short of the threshold with exactly the right approach, and it is also possible to have them reject you while you have far exceeded the threshold with the wrong approach.

Final note: Submissiveness is a wild card for achieving non-resistance to a sex act. However, non-resistance does not mean they will like it.

Benign sex acts

Acts such as hand-holding, hugging, and having him sit in your lap. Things that are more or less non-sexual, but can be construed in a sexual way to some extent.

Where as a normal boy would be secure enough in his gender identity to do these things with you freely, Dante is so insecure that he will actually shy away from letting you do these things with him viewing such gentle signs of affection as girly. He will not refuse them if you insist even a little though, and getting him comfortable with these sorts of acts will push him down his sissy route.

Note: If you want to do these things on the butch route, you will need to do some rough/boyish physical activity with him first and then give him a rough hug or something of that nature afterward. After that, all these activities can be done as normal without threatening his push to become more masculine.

Dismissable sex acts

Acts that can just as easily be seen as sexual as they can non-sexual or unintentional. Examples include holding his ass, being shirtless around one another, or oggling his crotch.

Oddly, these somewhat more sexualized interactions will not be emasculating to him. Not unless you use talk to refer to him in girly terms anyway. At any rate, due to how he is raised, he will take zero issue with any of it regardless of your relationship levels (unless you have cultivated an enemy score with him and he has somehow become dominant over you. That, or his mom objects to you.)

Mild sex acts

Acts that would not be regarded as sex but cannot be seen as anything but sexual, such as kissing, groping, dry-humping, or revealing privates.

• Kissing:

• Grope crotch over cloths:

• Show privates to each other for no reason other than to just look:

• Use toilet with other present in bathroom:

• Reference or discuss moderate or hard-core sex with each other:

• Crotch to crotch clothed dry-humping:

• Be casually naked with one another:

Moderate sex acts

Sex acts that most would consider sex, but would not get the "hard-core" label if filmed and put on a porn site.

• Touch each other's bare genitals with hand

• Touch your bare genitals together:

• Masturbate partner to orgasm

• Ejaculate on his body, below neck

• Ejaculate on his head, hair, or face:

• Perform oral sex on him:

• Have him perform oral sex on you:

• Have him ejaculate on you

• Have him ejaculate on you as Lexi without him being aware semen makes babies

• Have him ejaculate on you as Lexi while he is aware semen makes babies

Hard-core sex acts

Sex acts that involve semen and/or the penis going into a vagina or anus.

• Have anal sex with him:

• He has anal sex with you:

• PIV sex with Lexi while ignorant to its role in impregnation:

• Vaginal sex with Lexi with a condom

• PIV sex with Lexi while aware that it makes babies:

• Get him to knowingly impregnate you as Lexi:

Fetish sex acts

Peculiarities to his sexuality, including desires that do not have strictly to do with reproductive sex as well as what his response would be to physical or psychological force being used to perform a sex act with him. (Note: Relationship recommendations are not given at the beginning as these are things that simply manifest at the appropriate level of sex act. Feeding the fetish is more of a good approach than anything.)

• Results of physical force in sex acts:

• Results of psychological force in sex acts: (Using partner's submissiveness to demand sex even when they don't want it)
