Sex

Big little lies

26 replies

Kmetsch3 · 22/03/2017 16:40

DP and I were watching Big Little Lies last night.
After a physical fight with her husband, Nicole Kidman and aforementioned husband have sex.

They are both standing with Nicole facing the wall.
Now Nicole Kidman is a tall lady, but we could not see how this position would be possible.

There was a similar sex scene in The Affair.

Are DP and I simply the wrong size, insufficiently passionate, or is this just nonsense for TV?

Sorry if my description is not detailed enough.

Does it work if he bends his knees a bit? I think if she's about the same height as him it works?

I think stand up sex is tv bullshit. Or perhaps I'm just too short for my DP.

I had to google the scene I haven't seen the film. Is it the bit where he turns her round against the wall?

If it is, then it's feasible. DP and I enjoy that way (not in the way that he is performing though 😬). Things like this are always easier if a man is well endowed in the length department. We are of similar height.

She's pushing away from the wall a bit, to get the angle right.

What isn't feasible was how he managed to penetrate so easily (doesn't Everyone fumble it in? 😂)

I find the Fatal Attraction standing up facing each other then wrapping your legs around the waist type position to be a complete mystery in achieving. I'd be so frightened of just sliding down the wall....😀

Everyone in BLL must live in a world of sexual tension and simmering lust, as balls deep penetration with the first thrust seems to be the norm. My fanjo would rip in two if the old man did that to me Sad

Tobuy one can also only assume the women aren't wearing a nice big snug pair of M&S apple catchers either.

No way could those beauties be "nosed" to one side. Grin

pledge it's vaguely possible that I need to up my game a bit then. Does wearing my best Primark nightie with baby sick on it and a bush the size of an actual real garden bush exclude me from resembling these women and chanel long my inner sex goddess? Grin

Nah I think you'll be fine. Hoike your nighty over your head, give yourself a quick wipe with a damp flannel and brace yourself against the wall "Nicole style"

Keep your slippers on for extra purchase....

Can I add another one to the feasibility study?

High heels during sex....,whether Hollywood Louboutins or the chosen favourite glass heels of 1970's German Porn...

It always looks like a H&S warning waiting to happen.

But no one is ever rushed to casualty with a punctured bollock, or to have a heel tip removed from their eyeball???

I tried high-heels dtd on the sofa recently and couldn't concentrate worrying about puncturing the leather Blush

It's all about the height difference. DH and I are almost the same height, I'm slightly taller. We have no problem with stand up sex with me facing either towards or away from him.

Akimbo totally agree. Me and my DH manage fine, and we are both the same height.

And it's not just about height, as some people have long torsos and short legs and vice versa. Need the right height in the right bits.

Fair point MoreThanUs, similar length legs is the most significant factor.
It also helps if the woman is able to and comfortable tilting her hips towards him. I find it easier if I've got something to rest my foot on when I'm facing him.

So it's not just that would find it tricky.

That's a relief. I thought we were becoming boring.

Only the other day we used both doggy and missionary in the same sex session.
This was mostly to save Mr Kmetsch's knees.

I shall get new slippers for my birthday and report back.

Slippers are definitely the way ahead....non scuff, non puncturing, great grip.

Well me and my DP are of a similar height (he's only 2.5 Iinches taller than me) and we still haven't managed it.Sad

You might find slipper socks work better. You get a good grip and they're more flexible than slippers Grin

I watched that scene and I assumed he was doing her up the arse? She seemed quite uncomfortable/in pain anyway and it didn't look particularly enjoyable to me.

It was because she wasn't wearing any slippers Lemonade that's why she was unhappy...

Only on MN can one open a thread expecting discussion of a TV portrayal of an abusive relationship and instead see practical analysis of the protagonists' sexual position, and jokes about slippers Grin

fwiw i can do standing up very easily both from behind or front and i enjoy it a lot
however some positions i know and here all the time and men tend to go for - legs up there when man on top - i hate it and it actually hurt

so more then the hight of a person I figure it is your (and his) anatomy down below that either locks it in or not... sounds so scientific right? Hmm

on the other hand the notorious butter scene in last tango its totally cinema sex, if only cause his trousers are on

A word of advice... if you're going to go for standing up, in heels (leather trousers and suck you in control short things), round the back of a pub while shit faced drunk be careful not to graze your forehead on the wall. It's a dead giveaway!! I'm a proper classy bird me Grin
