Not a hairy handed troll - do people who wear glasses take them off to have sex?

No I don't need them in the dark.

IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece · 04/10/2019 22:21

I don’t think I’ve ever purposely taken them off during sex....clearly I’m not doing it right if I’m not worried I’ll break them Wink

rainbowlou · 04/10/2019 22:31

Without sounding very unromantic mine cost £350 so yes they come off!!😀😃

katienana · 04/10/2019 22:33

I take them off. We both wear glasses and they bang together when we kiss! It puts everything in a nice soft focus too.

Mummyonthebus · 04/10/2019 22:35

DH once asked me to take my glasses off during sex, I think he found me less attractive wearing them. 'Ah, that's better' I said.

Nirvana1979 · 04/10/2019 22:43

If we're in bed then yes they are usually off anyway. If we're anywhere else then they stay on normally..

UnoriginalUserName948 · 04/10/2019 22:48

Yes, but my eyesight isn't that terrible that I can't see enough!

64sNewName · 04/10/2019 22:49

DP takes them off. (I don’t wear any)

I think I’d remind him if he forgot. Not because I don’t like how he looks in them - I really do! - but because I’d be slightly on tenterhooks expecting them to fall off any moment, or get squashed.

eurochick · 04/10/2019 22:51

Yes, they come off. I find a lack of sharp focus to be a benefit in most sexual encounters!

TomHagenMakesMyBosomTremble · 04/10/2019 22:52

Yes, usually! They get squashed otherwise!

pigsDOfly · 04/10/2019 22:55

Can't imagine why anyone would keep them on during sex.

I've worn glasses my whole life and have never had sex with my glasses on. They'd knock into the other person, get knocked sideways on my face and just be uncomfortable and intrusive.

novasglowx · 04/10/2019 22:56

Yep. Good job I know where everything is Grin

pooopypants · 04/10/2019 22:56

Depends if I'm going for the cheeky librarian look, though I don't have the baps to properly carry that off to be fair

We both wear specs so they'd be knocking together like maracas if we didn't

EowynDernhelm · 04/10/2019 22:57

Depends on the where / how really. In bed, regular shag, yes always take them off. Spontaneous upright shag, especially if partially clothed, probably leave them on. Al fresco shag - almost definitely on, so we can see if anyone is coming!

AufderAutobahn · 04/10/2019 22:58

Yes, it would be a tad uncomfortable otherwise.

MrsTommyShelby · 04/10/2019 23:03

My and my DP both wear glasses, they kind of clash into each other if we don't take them off. Feels clumsy and annoying.

Saltisford · 04/10/2019 23:12

Depends where you are. In bed, take them off, downstairs probably keep them on to keep my wits about me!!

LionelRitchieStoleMyNotebook · 04/10/2019 23:13

I only wear mine at work....

SerenDippitty · 04/10/2019 23:14

Yes.

Rainbowknickers · 04/10/2019 23:24

For some reason my dp puts them on top of his head
Then halfway through he squeals that they are there and flings them across the room
Then after the deed I have to gingerly step around the room to find them
We’ve been together 4 years-youd think he’d have learnt by now to just take them off...

SamBeckett · 04/10/2019 23:33

@LionelRitchieStoleMyNotebook ah but what happens if you get invited into the stationary cupboard ? Wink

If I take my kit off then yes my specs come off to but if it is is just a quicky ( fond but distant memories ) they stay on , if ending up a bit squwiff

Lowlandlucky · 04/10/2019 23:51

They cost hundreds of pounds so they have to be taken off, i cant afford for them to get squished

gavisconismyfriend · 05/10/2019 00:21

Yes, always. If I take my glasses off then he knows he’s in luck!!

DontMakeMeShushYou · 05/10/2019 00:35

This!
