I think anyone who feels the need to share intimate details of their sex life with other people, even close friends, is either looking for attention or validation. General questions, jokes, and non personal statements are one thing. Bragging and/or giving graphic details is just a cry for love.

If you're gettin some, great- that's the extent of detail needed. Don't tell me what position or which condiments are used, I'll just walk away:P

This is your opinion remember.

If you have good evidence that this is fact, I'd be happy to see it.

I never get into details about me and partner. I'll say things about what I would like to try and what I like.

That is my opinion, and I'm entitled to it :biggrin:

If someone wants to learn something, it's very easy to generalize it instead of personalizing it. If you feel you HAVE to talk about yourself(and btw violate the trust of the other person while you're doing it) then you're obviously seeking approval. Every guy I've known who needed to share intimate details of their sex life is just bragging. I'm not saying it's unusal, but I'm just calling it like I see it. And I'm far from a prude. I'm just asking how some guy telling me that his girlfriend likes this position and dislikes that position benefits me?

I feel the same way, I couldn't be less interested in someone else's sex life and don't know why they would think I might be. :confused:

Talk about crying out for love! Peeping in your neighbor's window is an offense in the U.S. These people probably would love to hear about your sex life too, 'cuz that 1-900 bill can get pretty steep! Rat B******s should at least buy me dinner first! :smile:

That is so true Daniel.

My sisters, my mother and I talk about sex openly all the time. I think by having parents that are open to talking about sex is a good thing. Seriously because it allows you to know exactly where your parents stand on the issue and there is no room for interpretation.

For religious reasons, I've chosen to remain abstenant until marriage. My boyfriend feels exactly the same way. We discussed it thoroughly before we even entered a relationship with one another.

I can't talk with my parents about sex, not even really about relationships. Which is fine, but when and if I have kids I'll be sure I can talk with them about it.
