Do you call it sex or "making love"?

[first1]

My new boyfriend (3months) asks to make love to me rather than just saying sex. I think it's incredibly cute but neither of us have said the L word or anything yet. Do many guys say this?!

I personally don't like "make love" though I think OH may have used it once in the early days.... He was completely fairly inexperienced and I wonder if he just felt it was more polite and delicate than "sex".

We don't tend to actually use words now, I think more like "shall we?" with a suggestive eyebrow raise!

I wouldn't say it's that common but if you like it, that's lovely for you.

I'm still telling my new bf that I don't like the term "shagging"!!! Awkward territory isnt it, when you can be at it like rabbits, but the L word isnt in sight ....

"fancy a shag ?" does it for me < common as muck >

Fuck features quite a lot here.

"sexy time?"

(in Borat accent obv)

lol at poorbuthappy I would say whatever suits the situation, DP and I use all sorts dependant on what the mood is

Bumping uglies?

I think it depends on the type of sex it is iyswim?

Making love is slow and romantic

Fuckking is a right good seeing to

And all points in between are a good shag.

AF - DP doesn't even say fancy a shag - He just gives me The Look

Do you want to do the no pants dance?

If DH is feeling alluring "Hop on the happy wagon and lets go to pleasuretown"

Ha! But is "making love" the term a bit old fashioned for blokes? He's 31 I was expecting him to use phrases more like the examples on here!

I'm not keen on the phrase "making love" too slushy for Shakey

Sex/shag/fuck

shagging. sex is oot clinical.making love is too Barry White

Or fucking

I'd be totally turned off by someone who asked me to have sex with them, no matter how they worded it!

Me: fancy doing it?
Him: No.

if DP said 'make love' it would turn me off completely.
Shag or sex.

The no pants dance

mine says "make love" or "fuck" and i know instantly what type of sex he has in mind but which one he calls it

I like the term 'humping'

Shagging works too.

I dont think I've ever said make love....

Ugh. "Making Love" is cringey - it actually makes me feel vaguely nauseous.

Shagging or fucking here.

I think the term is romantic, it IS kind of "making" "love" ...

I only ever say "making lurve" if I am taking the piss.

Asking seems very polite in a new relationship - don't you just go with the flow iyswim.

No asking as such in this house. If both kids are out it's a mad dash upstairs. If we're already in bed then dh signal is taking his glasses off and giving me the look.

I think it's polite in a new relationship, he's trying to be respectful. It's cute :)
