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??

Newspaper spread on the sheet is very effective and easy to dispose of (though doesn't go in the recycling bin after use), does leave print on bum and knees though. Sunday Times is the best.

A toilet paper cum cork you say < heads over to Etsy > looks like one will have to fashion one’s own!

Unless you are 18 why would you discuss this with colleagues. I mean how would you even get into the conversation?

Toilet paper, get it in place before withdrawal, hold in place and run to the toilet to dispose of it. No washing towels needed
Before I was married a friend stay the night. She said that she wanted us to have breakfast while naked. That sounded good to me but she had a few pieces of toilet paper hanging out to stop my spunk running doen her legs as we ate. I never saw her again.

Only if I have my period and don’t want the sheets to look like a murder scene otherwise no towel.

PortiaCastis · 24/08/2018 20:24

There must be a business case for bogpaper bumcork in different shades to match the bedset.

I'm just gonna but a fucking wet suit and a snorkel....
Jobs a gooden!

Frogscotch7 · 24/08/2018 20:26

Surely it should match the colour of the bumhole not the bedsheet? Or do most people already buy bedsheets that match their arseholes? (Wouldn’t surprise me)

December2018 · 24/08/2018 20:28

Ohh and binbags work best... the wet stuff turns into a crust and we often just shake it off and re-use.... Brilliant!

PortiaCastis · 24/08/2018 20:30

Some have bleached arseholes so I presume a colour chart is reqd and ones partner matches up hmm Farrow Balls and Bumholes has a certain ring to it

We used a sex towel or in desperate times the nearest t-shirt when I was on the pill. Neither of us wanted to sleep in a wet patch and then you just chuck it in the washing basket afterwards. It is quicker and easier than pausing for a condom.

Now we use condoms we don't bother with the sex towel.

I don't think either way is weird or passion killing.

I came across this a couple of weeks ago. Who would spend that much money on such a thing?!?!

Thank God DP is in the bath, he can't hear me guffawing. This could end up in Classics.

Period sex - is that getting your leg over whilst dressed like a character from downton abbey?

Run a hot iron over it first to stop the ink coming off the sheets

myidentitymycrisis · 24/08/2018 20:38

Crying out loud with laughter here.
I personally have never used said towel or other protective linens, disposable or otherwise.

I like bodily fluid Grin

CanIhavedessertfirst · 24/08/2018 20:39

We have a sex towel, but it's to... erm... clean up afterwards

Donthugmeimscared · 24/08/2018 20:40

Never used a sex towel and never had sex while on my period. I always quite liked the weeks break from all that. Then again I haven't had sex in two years so don't really remember what its like.

Frogscotch7 · 24/08/2018 20:41

Sunday Times is SUCH a mumsnet newspaper paper to have sex on. Round here people use the Sunday Sport.

2018SoFarSoGreat · 24/08/2018 20:41

I may or may not have a designated sex sheet. White bedding, and long wet, dyed (head) hair do not mix well. No hole in it though.

Kittykat93 · 24/08/2018 20:42

No sex towel here, I usually just waddle walk over to the wash basket and pull out the nearest thing to mop up with Blush

kaytee87 · 24/08/2018 20:43

I just make sure we have sex on DH side so he gets to lie in any wet bits Grin

Or whilst wearing a bonnet.
