Sex Cape

About to get into a quickie when DH wrapped duvet around his shoulders and announced that it was his 'sex cape' ...

Anyone else married to their bestie who is also an absolute clown and can't help bringing it into the bedroom? I swear most attempts end in hysterics these days 😳🤪

I'm just here for the comments Grin

It really isn't that difficult to see the parallels, surely. If you wouldn't shout it out in public, why share it on a public forum. It is essentially the same thing.

I guess the difference is anonymity. Shouting about something in a shop identifies you personally. You can be anyone you want on here and no one knows you. Maybe that explains why some are less inhibited on here than they would be in public...

Hope I can find a relationship like this! Little laughter goes a long way.

A man examining a womans vagina to see if she has given birth or not is not really the way to give her an orgasm.

Whaaaaaat? You're telling me this NOW? Wink

It really isn't that difficult to see the parallels, surely. If you wouldn't shout it out in public, why share it on a public forum. It is essentially the same thing. MN isn't a group of mates chatting over a bottle or 5 of wine, not everyone wants to know that your husband decorates his balls, or inspects your privates. You don't have to agree its tmi, but others are entitled to think it.

I don't think it's the same thing at all.

Whenever threads come up on 'Why do you read Mumsnet?', or 'what do you like about Mumsnet?', a common theme is that people enjoy hearing the diversity of real-life thoughts that people are prepared to share anonymously and which they wouldn't necessarily shout out loud in public.

Think of posts however you like, whether you find them tmi, crude etc etc, but I don't think the parallel is accurate, that if you wouldn't shout it out in a public space where you are identifiable, you shouldn't say it on a forum.

Whatever happened to scroll past if you don’t have anything nice to say or contribute?

This is precisely what I was trying to say... its about being identifiable versus not.

@Angrymum22

This thread is probably the most entertaining one I’ve seen on AIBU. The sexually relaxed v the sexually repressed. Lack of inhibition is essential for good sex. If it includes humour and watching your normally uptight DH do a striptease John Cleese style ( Fish called Wanda) then you know your going to have a good time. And if more men spent time examining their partners lady bits maybe the 40% of women who miss out on orgasm would enjoy what the rest of us regularly receive.
Genuinely, if people think that losing your inhibitions for sex is watching your partner do... well that, I'm the one feeling sorry for you. I mean if that's what gets you there then fair enough but I can assure you I've never needed to be inspected like a prized cow to have a fulfilling sex life or have my husband act like... John Cleese.

This thread has been very odd, people thinking that you must be uptight to not be laughing your head off during sex like it's a variety show performance from the 1970s. Again, whatever works for you but that doesn't make anyone else 'repressed'.

And more to the point... how on earth does a vaginal examination reveal this information anyway? ConfusedGrin

Holothane · 29/12/2020 22:14

We have laughs too, it’s I important.

Oh @BrumBoo I'm loving the way you can't even type the words on an anonymous forum, its Do.... well that! But you're not repressed?

covidaintacrime · 29/12/2020 22:16

Does it actually matter if people are repressed though?
How does that affect this conversation? Either people like having a giggle during sex or they don't, it's just a preference.

Purplethrow · 29/12/2020 22:18

Most of the threads on MN are about things you wouldn’t shout out in public. This is light hearted and funny and provides a bit of light relief, which most normal people understand.

When did we agree this Hmm

Carry on style sex doesn't do it for me OP but whatever does it for you!

@bookworming, you're reeeeaaalllyyy scraping the barrel for comebacks, and failing more miserably each time dear. Honestly, if you opened this thread for some weird kicks of other people's sex stories, there are plenty of other places on the internet where 'pearl clutchers' and 'sexually repressed' posters wont get in your way. Or is giggling like a teen about 'naughty stuff' whilst name calling other posters actually your 'thing'?
Bookworming · 29/12/2020 22:19

No it doesn't @covidaintacrime but it does when people that aren't repressed are told they're oversharing etc. Why not just accept that others do have a giggle in the bedrooms s not admonish them?

Bloodypunkrockers · 29/12/2020 22:19

@Bookworming

Odfod @Bookworming you haven’t got a fucking clue. All a bit sad really

As suspected!

Op is enjoying her sex life, you know what hun, just scroll on by and let her do it!

It so refreshing seeing a great sex life between a loving couple! All mixed up with some laughter.

Hun???? Oh my god Grin
Bookworming · 29/12/2020 22:20

@Bloodypunkrockers for theTHIRD time as a get back at the twee ODFOD! Ffs people read the full thread 😂

Is that in the talk guidelines?

BrumBoo · 29/12/2020 22:21

which most normal people understand.

Ah, gone from pearl clutching to abnormal now, just for thinking some people are over sharing.

This is AIBU.

More like "If you have something nice to say, scroll on" Grin

Benny Hill sex doesn't do it for me either (and I'm definitely not repressed) but I'm loving this thread.

There's nowt as queer as folk.
