Bedsheets and sex

298 replies

I'm currently enjoying a new relationship, and we're having a lot of sex 🙂... every night we're together. I've not had that for a very long time!

Do those of you lucky enough to be in my position change your bedsheets every night (like I currently do), or put up with a "wet patch" and crusty sheets the next evening, or do something different (I used to put a towel down in my last relationship but sex was more planned then - now it's spontaneous and stopping to go get a towel kinda breaks the mood!)

I've only got two sheets and with work and other pressures, one of these days I'm. It going to have a clean sheet to put on! I may have to buy more! I can't be the only one with this dilemma.

You needs a trip to IKEA

Oh no don’t do that, there’s CCTV everywhere there 😆

Why is he producing onto the bed? I've never understood these massive wet patches on the bed after sex

The wet patches are often from the woman 🙂

MyBrownEyedHandsomeBoy · 31/01/2024 18:55

Can't he 'produce' on your torso, then run t loo and grab you a bog roll love?

HowDoTheyGetThroughLife · 31/01/2024 18:56

You've only got 2 sheets?? Bloody hell, I must have about 9 (and sex is hardly ever at all 😂)

What the hell is a penis beaker ? I think i might regret asking this

🤣..... 🍆🥛think about it. It's apparently a relied on method for "freshening up" after sex 😣🤢

Hijinks75 · 31/01/2024 19:01

I too have zero idea what a penis beaker is and I’m male

Maireas · 31/01/2024 19:02

Stormbornform · 31/01/2024 18:37

Then it is the sex towel....but it goes down after to soak up the wetness (so no need to worry about which bit of the bed you secrete onto)....

No, I was asking the OP, sorry

XMissPlacedX · 31/01/2024 19:03

We have a sex towel, it lives in the bedside cupboard, had it for 7 years and gets washed on a Sunday. I buy a new towel when I get with a new bloke, wouldn't be very classy to use the same one now would it Grin

He'd never know.
What do you do with the old one? (Towel, not man)

XMissPlacedX · 31/01/2024 19:07

The man gets added to 'the list' and scored out of 10 and the towel gets thrown in the bin ( just a hand towel) Grin

Good strategy. Lowest score?

XMissPlacedX · 31/01/2024 19:14

@Maireas I've had a zero before bless him, but to be fair I was his first (he was 43) and I was 30. Been with DH for 7 years now so stopped scoring him lol

Semen and Bum were the firm of solicitors I used to get off my speeding fine.

What, scored for how much he "makes a mess on the bedsheets?"....or how good in bed? 😂

@FloralnomadWhen you say "We both get given a tissue..." Does someone pass you it?! 😆

Edited

No I do the passing out of tissue , which is actually toilet tissue as normal tissues shouldn’t be flushed .

harerunner · 31/01/2024 19:35

Given how squeamish some people seem to be, I'm surprised no used condoms purely to avoid the possibility of mess (if it's the man producing it - I realise some women do too!)

@Mycatsarethebest hilair!

Zephyry · 31/01/2024 19:46

@flusterbluff I'm in the club too, assumed everyone was! And what's with the waiting until he's asleep and then sneaking to the bathroom!? Its not something the woman has to do discreetly?! And what's with the leaking penises later, again who are these men who lie around leaking with wreckless abandon as the woman mop up! Its both people's job isn't it. One of us catches up spills in toilet paper and my DH wraps toilet paper round his nob, goes to the bathroom and flushes away the spill and cleans himself up. Wears pants to sleep in so no all night leaking here!

Good idea, then you could go for meat balls after.

Go on a Friday. Half price meatballs on a Friday.

MrTumbleDryer · 31/01/2024 16:44

I would change the bed. Dribbles abd leaks affect the duvet too, plus 2 sweaty bodies, pillows sweaty and musty.
My DC would want to climb into my bed, Id hate their bare feet or hands touch sexual liquids. The room will smell of semen and bum if the bedding isn't changed and room aired. One solution is sex in the bathroom or a large towel on chair or standing up quicky.

Jeezus happy to be single

XMissPlacedX · 31/01/2024 19:59

@harerunner lol, scored for 3 things: 1: Member size, 2: How good they are with it and 3: Personality

It's just a bit of fun , I would die if anyone ever saw it. I'm 40 now and have had the list since I was 18.

Oh dear, I kind of want to hear now bad the guy had to be to get a zero! 😮😂

Just a thought but on the rare occasion that I have sex with my husband he’s a mass producer too. Or used to be. He has an issue with a seminal vesicle (I think that’s what it’s called - not sexy huh but it means it’s like an explosive faucet)! He used to like to do a clean up with baby wipes. Made me feel a bit weird but better that than crusty sheets.
