Sex towel

Not really an AIBU but I wanted opinions on this.

A colleague of mine told me that she lays a towel down every time her and her husband have sex. She was pretty disgusted with me when I confessed that I don't undertake in such a practice, so I was wondering; am I doing this wrong?! Is a sex towel a thing??

(Remembers just one of the reasons she hasn't had sex with a man in some years...)

We once used a sex towel because DH (before he was DH) was convinced that when I was on my period I would spray bloody everywhere like some sort of bloodied leper squid. He was incredibly surprised when there wasn’t a single drop of blood on the towel. So no, we don’t use one. We do, however, have a crusty cum towel for afterwards (disclaimer: it is neither crusty nor full of cum as it gets washed every single time, it’s just the lovely affectionate name we give it 😂)

Does she only do it in the missionary position???

Toilet paper, get it in place before withdrawal, hold in place and run to the toilet to dispose of it. No washing towels needed

What's the fish slice thread? Link please

GummyGoddess · 24/08/2018 19:21

No, am I the only one who fidgets over to DH's side of the bed before the, ahem, climax? Does that make me a bad wife?

DerekTheBrave · 24/08/2018 19:22

Like some pp’s, only for period sex...and laying a towel down is still much less damaging to spontaneity than putting a condom on IMO (which is the only reason we even have period sex btw because we don’t bother with one).

We use a towel in hotels or caravans (our own towel) and sometimes at home but more often we don't. I have been known to wipe the worst of the spunk off the sheets then blow dry it to avoid changing the sheets in the middle of the night though, if sex has been a happy surprise (our sheets are stored downstairs).

Mumsnet is so informative!

I have never used a sex towel, I also have never gotten up afterwards to change the sheets.

Quick clean up with his tshirt or his pants (he’s never complained and he does his own washing. Change the sheets the next day, if they need it.

Blow dry spunky sheets, Brilliant!

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 24/08/2018 19:39

WTF actually talks like that to their work colleague. May be it's me that's the weirdo.

Whatsthisbear · 24/08/2018 19:40

@PortiaCastis my mind was boggling at the thought of sex lube and a fish slice Grin

Governoress86 · 24/08/2018 19:40

I wear a napkin when giving head 🤣

myotherbagisgucci · 24/08/2018 19:41

I'm shocked at how many ladies have sex whilst on their period!! ShockI didn't even think this was a thing!

And no, sex towels are weird!

Bluelady · 24/08/2018 19:44

No period sex? Seriously? It never occurred to me people didn't.

Governoress86 · 24/08/2018 19:46

Sex towel, sex towel, your my sex towel, and you can give it to me as long as fill up your beaker and lay your crusty towel Grin

Burst out laughing over that!

Booboopidoo · 24/08/2018 19:50

I must be a proper slattern because the thing I’m most Shock about on this thread is posters changing sheets because they’ve had sex. Am I the only one who changes them once a week regardless and wouldn’t even consider changing them in the middle of the night?! Confused

Betsy86 · 24/08/2018 19:51

*jenjen cant even read full thread as got to to ‘sex placemat’ and i am crying with laughter 😂

shallen · 24/08/2018 19:52

@GummyGoddess that's exactly what I was going to say, wriggle over to their side during, usually without them noticing then they get the wet bit to sleep in!!

I have images of lots of crispy crusty towels like something you would find in a teenage boys bedroom!
