Having just somehow broken my own rule of not even reading the political threads and actually having contributed to one I realised that I must have opened it in desperation because most of the BS threads at the moment seem to be about politics. Consequently, I thought I'd start one without politics.

Sex, religion and politics are supposed to be the three banned subjects for discussion at dinners. I don't talk politics usually because people get so worked up about it and often religion is the same, though sometimes more interesting, especially among tolerant people. Sex, however, I see nothing against talking about, so, who's going to start the conversation???

Love Lynne

Whatb else is there to talk about? Especially if you add sport to that list, which some pubs do. There's the weather, but even that gets political now, what with global warming and that. I suppose you could talk about books and so forth, but what are the books and so forth going to be about?

I suppose there's music, so long as you don't include songs.

After the post-mortems about why Bush lost, the political threads will drop off dramatically.

But when is the UK election?



Anyway----on with the discussions about sex.

When there I intend to visit my old santee. How does that grab you my friend?

big difference between "talking about sex" and 'talking sexy', and many folks are not real comfy with either. Sex is one of those subjects where many worry about their image if they say the wrong thing.
I spent 3 years working in an "adult" book store and got used to images, language, gadgets, opinions, fetishes...and just generally hearing folks ask, tell and worry about their sex lives, lack thereof, and wish lists.....such variety we have in humans!

What I learned is that sex is a lot like music....some folks like to create tunes & lyrics, some like only following or listening to what has already been done, some do well in harmonies with others while others MUST direct and/or choose the tune. Likewise, some like 'visuals'(live or pictures) while others like stories and imagination with the images only in their heads.

....and one of the most important things I learned is how awkward it is for many folks to compare and sort out these varied approaches when they are trying to form relationships, because there has been, up to now, few avenues for 'standard' comparison of views and attitudes, other than gossip in peer groups which leads to SUCH bad information sometimes!...but in the last few years, the internet/WWW has begun to change all that....people are finding like minded souls and developing their 'interests' BEFORE they meet others. This can be good AND bad, but at least opportunities are widening...


wow...I do go on, hmmm?

What what what? Why would one want to talk about sex at the dinner table, when one can have sex on the dinner table? Deary me, what happended to inventiveness?

I always try my hardest to start some healthy debates at the dinner table, especially at Christmas when everyone's a bit tipsy. Problem is, my family are all athiests, and what's more they're all liberal commie left-wing surrender monkeys. I usually resort to playing Devil's advocate and saying something like 'Isn't George Bush simply darling?'. That works.

Everyone should talk about sex more!
It makes it so much better when you have a no holds barred sexual honesty with each other! My ex taught me so much and made me more vocally liberated, which led to me being more sexually liberated.
If we lived a bit closer to each other he wouldn't be my ex!

Damn shame!

The term female ejaculation, originated by Sevely and Bennett (1975) and Belzer (1981), refers to the orgasmic expulsion which is at least partially homologous to male ejaculation, rather than any other sort of expulsion of liquid which might occur at the time of a woman's orgasm, such as urine or vaginal secretions (Addiego et al., 1981). Since then, controversy has surrounded this topic as to where female ejaculate would come from, whether it truly is of the same consistency as seminal fluid in men, or whether women are merely urinating at the experience of an intense orgasm.

Perry and Whipple's (1981) study of pelvic muscle strength in relation to females who claimed to be ejaculators hypothesized the women who ejaculated upon orgasm have stronger pelvic muscle contractions under voluntary control than women who do not. This study also raised questions as to whether women can only have clitoral or vaginal orgasms by noting that women who ejaculated not only had stronger pubococcygeal muscle contractions, but also had stronger uterine contractions than non-ejaculators.

Yes, I belive. Rustic

I recall a psychiatrist friend of mine who would ask patients--in the course of getting to the difficulties they were undergoing--if they ever M'd. Most people would say they didn't (hadn't). He would reply, "So, you tried it once and didn't LIKE IT?"
