To be annoyed at the childish way DH speaks about sex/sexual acts

I really dislike the way my DH talks about sex. He'll say things like 'any chance of a handie/blowie?' And 'I want to give you a rodgering'. He thinks it's amusing/totally reasonable but I find it immature and a turn off. AIBU?

Have you told him?

Msqueen33 · 15/04/2017 22:22

No. My dh still says thinks like bellend and knob. It's immature and sexually puts me off him.

ScarletForYa · 15/04/2017 22:22

You're not one of those weirdos who says 'make love' are you? Hmm

Sparklingbrook · 15/04/2017 22:23

Are you married to one of The Inbetweeners? Confused

MrsMeeseeks · 15/04/2017 22:24

Ugh, YANBU, that would put me off, too.

I once dated a guy who would suggest that we 'rub uglies'. We weren't together long.

Deadsouls · 15/04/2017 22:24

Confused not very enticing I agree with you OP

thenightsky · 15/04/2017 22:25

I've dumped for similar. Urgh.

Pigface1 · 15/04/2017 22:27

YANBU. I once dated a guy who talked about putting his woo-woo in my cha-cha (I think it was a quote off South Park or something).

I dumped him, obvs.

BlueDaisies · 15/04/2017 22:28

Tell him (if you haven't already) that it is really putting you off! Surely he should then stop it as he stands much more chance of actually getting sex if he stops this!

haveacupoftea · 15/04/2017 22:28

I'd be more put off by someone who took it really seriously tbh

Does he have s good sense of humour? I wouldn't mind a bit of cheekiness

CreamCheez · 15/04/2017 22:33

Went out with a bloke once who asked if he could "touch the twins". The answer was no!

Jurassictit · 15/04/2017 22:48

So would you prefer he says a fellation ?

wizzywig · 15/04/2017 22:50

yeah, i have one of them. he has a name for his. really appealing that is.

HarryPottersMagicWand · 15/04/2017 22:51

Ugh, YANBU. DH is pissing me off at the moment because he keeps calling yorkshire puddings 'yorkies'. It's something about the 'ies' in a word. DD sometimes says sweeties and I always say it back as sweets.

But as you are married and presumably have been together for a while, why haven't you brought this up with him before?

Voice0fReason · 15/04/2017 22:52

If you don't like it, say so.

Sex should be fun.

intergalacticbrexitdisco · 15/04/2017 22:53

There would never have been any 'rodgering' to begin with, I'm afraid. You should have turned back while you could, op!

donajimena · 15/04/2017 22:55

Nope. Up there with a grown man/woman stating they have a 'tummy' ache.
I also had a manager who used to say she had a bad belly. Whatever happened to my stomach doesn't feel right?

MeadowHay · 15/04/2017 22:57

Agree you really should have told him straight away?! But anyway, YANBU if you don't like it, tell him and he should stop. I also would hate that but luckily DH has never really spoke like that.

ToastyFingers · 15/04/2017 22:59

I think if it bothers you, you should mention it.

A lighthearted attitude towards sex isn't universally disliked, I'd much prefer a silly phrase like 'bumping uglies' to 'making love' or something similarly soppy. Each to their own though.

zukiecat · 15/04/2017 22:59

What's wrong with "Make love" Scarlet?

Is that not what it is?

NotReallyMeToday · 15/04/2017 23:01

I am always fascinated when people say this stuff about their husband. Like...didn't this come up in the early days of your relationship?

I know my DH has a load of faults and a very offbeat sense of humour to match which is probably a fault too but I knew it before we got married. Or has your DH just started doing this recently?

Avioleta · 15/04/2017 23:01

Ugh. I once had a boyfriend who referred to my breasts as 'boobie-woobies' and whose idea of foreplay was to dry hump me while I was bent over loading the dishwasher. There are many reasons he is now an ex but those ones were not insignificant.

ToEarlyForDecorations · 15/04/2017 23:02

It's babyish and totally off putting.

I spent a good few years persuading my husband not to think of our sex life like the saucy parts of a carry on film.

Y'know let's have it more like Sergio Gainsborough's Je'taime. Well alright more like Arthur Mullard and June Whitfield but we try !

However, if a bloke uses words for private parts and/or sex that a child would use then I wonder what age group he secretly want to have sex with.

Can he not relate to adult sex ?

Knew a bloke who said his gf called sex,'wooky' as in do you want wooky ? She would ask. Dunno, maybe she just had a star wars fantasy or something.
