Making Love

[ProcrastinationIsMySuperPower]

My DH insists that the term "making love" is romantic.

I think it's cringe-y and old-fashioned. I think having sex is just that, why call it something else?

Really interested to get some other opinions... Also hoping to prove DH wrong (in a totally light hearted way).

So - YABU - Making love is oh so romantic
YANBU - call it what it is!!

alwayslatte sex is a ‘bit crude’ though. I find it funny that people can’t bring themselves to say ‘shag’ or ‘fuck’ but manage to do the actual act.

I had an ex who asked me if I wanted to ride the blue vein love train

I prefer ‘hide the sausage’

I thought this was just me! It is the top cringe for me and guaranteed to make even the most gorgeous person a complete turn off. OH loves to use it as he knows it triggers me!

Yes, when I'm moist from heavy petting we make love!

🤮 get out! 😂

I'm not a fan of the phrase "making love", and one man I was with went just that bit further with "Darling, would you like to make a little love?" 🤢 No, not really, thanks mate, I've gone right off it for some reason 🙄 I generally either don't say anything when I'm up for it, or say "fancy a fuck?"

I think there are a dearth of good names for sex. My favourite one is from some part of Africa. They say 'laughing in the bushes' which is brilliant as it sounds so happy and joyful!...
That’s lovely 🤗

...Doesn’t translate so well over here I guess. 'Laughing in the deserted multi-story car park' doesn't have quite such a ring to it 😂
Not quite, no

Eurgh. Hate it 🤢
My DP referred to it as making love (I can hardly type it it makes me cringe so much) when we first met.
He didn't say it again, lol

Hello by Lionel Richie?

Lord, so many possibilities each one more horrifying than the last.[/quote]
It was a song called 'I swear by a band called All 4 one. Even the song itself is horrificly cheesy.
Just remember a really intense look in his eyes while he sang in a high pitch
'For better or worse...till death do us paaarrrtt....I love you with everrryyy beat of my heart...I sweeeaaarrr'

Yes it's a euphemism for having sex.

In the olden days, wasn’t it a bit of How’s your Father?

Or getting down to it?

And with regards to making love - would that be making love with someone or making love to them? Boak

Anyone know the song by Bad Company called “Feel Like Makin’ Love”? I actually love the song despite the awful phrase.

I prefer ' bumping uglies'

DP on the other hand goes fancy a

It’s sex, or slow sex.

That’s tonight’s horrendous ear word sorted out then. Your story just gets worse and worse. You poor thing. I’m inside out just hearing about it on here.

There are two songs now competing in my head.

One is Barry White “Love Serenade”.

The other is The Normal “Warm Leatherette”.

We say shag in this house.

He was Norwegian and it made him sound like a serial killer.

Sorry. I’m still laughing at this....😂😂😂

I was chatting to a guy during lockdown and he mentioned about making love when it's all over, I told him never to use they phrase again ! He asked if I would rather be said he would like to fuck me, yes, yes I would !!

Intercourse or full sex.

Just imagine if your other half says - “how about some rumpy pumpy”?! That’s what I have to put up with....

Parking the beef bus in tuna town

I always extend an invitation to exchange secretions.

Said in a husky voice, though.

These expressions may be more palatable:

Making the beast with two backs
Making the big boom boom
Slip you a length of my pork sword

Both horrifying and very funny ...

I may expire.
