But, mixed with all those other feelings that I now refer to as “heart feelings” because they are so deep inside of me and have been there for almost as long as I have been alive. I hope that all makes some sense 😉. @southerncalgal, I love this. “Heart feelings”. Perfect. Best discription.

To me, this sensation is THE main dev rush. I think it’s kind of like getting chills, which happens in response to something that triggers mixed emotions, like a beautiful sad song, or a speech that is moving but about difficult subjects, something like that. We don’t get chills over things that are just happy, it’s always when there is a deeper layer of sadness mixed in. Maybe this stomach feeling is also in reaction to feeling turned on but at the same time also empathy, sadness or fear.
I have long felt that dev feelings are a way of dealing with anxiety about disability by eroticizing it. This sensation seems to be a part of it.

But, it connects with the revelation I made a couple of weeks ago with being sheltered by my mom and idolizing those that stretch the limits with what they do with their body. devogirl, definitely some food for thought for me.

I'm probably thread-necromancing but I can definitely agree with the butterflies/swarm of butterflies thing! The sadness/empathy part also sounds familiar, but as of now it's been a positive feeling. I haven't had real life devo experience yet though - I might soon >w<' But I feel that sensation more in the heart or, you know, /that/ area. So it's definitely a sexual feeling for me. I couldn't figure out if there's any reason why I sometimes feel it down there but in the heart at other times - if any of you know that, do you notice any patterns? Also, for me and if I understood devogirl correctly it probably isn't much to do with anxiety - do you mean fear of staring wrong or reacting hurtful to a PWD or anxiety of acquiring a disability? Because if you mean the latter, it's no explanation in my case. (I'm kind of searching since I don't recall any key experiences, traumata or other things viewed as a trigger for an attraction. I was raised to look away, but don't recall that ever being told to me around anyone with one of the disabilities I ended up attracted to.)
