Preface: YES, there are other groups that list all the mistakes men make, and YES, we are aware that they exist,but we would like to defend ourselves and make some suggestions that make the bedroom a fairer playground and if it helps you to get us off better/quicker, then thats a bonus
-
Not moving at all, it helps things along if you respond to his movements, even in missionary
-
Expecting him to undress himself with any amount of grace. He's a man - don't expect too much.
-
Not shaving your legs. If you want your guy stubble free, you better get out the razor. fair enough
-
Allowing your crotch to resemble the Amazon. Maybe a little spruce and tidy, or if you are feeling daring go for the full brazilian, he will go down on your more!
-
Assuming that sex means a relationship. Don't get sucked into a one sided relationship, if he just appears for sex, he just wants to dangle his hoo hoo and you best be kicking him out.
-
Withholding oral sex just because you're on your period. Oral sex can be very loving and intimate and there is no reason why you both cannot enjoy this, there are ways for him to stimulate you too without making a mess (dare i say it, use the back door!)
-
Expecting him to figure out what you like by what noise you make. Use your words. Have you ever actually heard what you sound like while you're having sex? If you heard yourself on tape, and someone asked you to explain what was causing you to make that noise, 67% of women would respond with answers like "I stubbed my toe" "I ran up the steps" or "I was putting up drywall".Cant fault this one
-
Leaving condoms up to him. If you're sexually active and insist that he uses a condom, I suggest buying a box and keeping it by your bed. Not all men keep them on them, and it's just as much your responsibility as it is his. If you think that makes you a slut, then you are wrong, it just makes you responsible. Some men are so blown away to get lucky they forget about the practicalities
-
Getting your undies in a bunch when he talks dirty. A little fantasy can be fun. If he treats you with respect all the time, you shouldn't be offended when he calls you his dirty little slut. So long as you both like this and he treats you with the UTMOST of respect at ALL times!
-
Refusing to be spontaneous. I know this is shocking, but sometimes sex OUTSIDE of the bedroom is fun. oh boy this is true!
-
Dissing quickies because it's not some slow sensual ordeal. Sex is a dynamic thing. There's an awesome raw energy when you only have 20 minutes but having to have someone so bad that you do it half clothed against the wall. Yes, imagine wanting someone that badly
-
Being too much of a pussy to tell him what is or isn't acceptable before you start bumping uglies. Be honest. If he asks if he can poke you in the butt, and you giggle and say NO like it's an invitation, don't look surprised if he tries it on - be clear if you don't like it, he MUST respect this.
-
Expecting him to undress you. Women put a bra on almost every day. I know for a fact that getting them off isn't always easy. Help a brother out. love this
-
Undressing in the dark. If you're shy, dim the lights, but give the man something to see. No ripping off the clothes and diving under the covers, either, well, unless its cold and you cant afford the fuel bills!
-
Refusing to get on top. There's no reason men should have to do all the work, and experimenting with positions is fun.
-
Getting that bored look on your face. Men are more visual than women. Give him something to look at. Get on top and arch your back a little bit. Move. Do something to indicate that you 1) are not dead and 2) didn't suffer a minor stroke rendering you unable to move. yep, i agree
-
Expecting him to do all the touching when you're riding him. It's your body, you're used to it. Play with your tits, rub your clit, do something to make his job easier. Yes, men love this and if you can help yourself along its a bonus
-
Being too afraid to guide your partner's hand when he's touching you. Don't like the way he's doing it? Gently take his hand and show him how you like it, or his mouth and dont be afraid to get a bit rough
-
Getting into bed, getting naked, fooling around and then deciding that you just want to cuddle, then getting offended when he doesn't. Although kissing and cuddling is lovely too, some men do take this as a green light.
-
Refusing to let him take control. So you are a feminist, letting a man take control in bed doesn't negate this, and it IS so very nice - remember, next time it will be your turn to be in charge
-
Refusing to take control. It's ok to crawl across a bed to him on all fours, push him down and crawl on top. Yep - they love that
-
Forgetting that he has a body that likes to be touched, too. Men have things like backs and shoulders and stomachs and other parts that are fun to kiss and touch. You miss a lot of good places by concentrating solely on his penis. Isn't that what women say about themselves too!
-
Ignoring his balls. Seriously, they are there. Kiss them, lick them, suck on them, make a relationship with them, just don't ignore them. VERY important
-
Leaving him to his own devices. Nothing is worse than a girl who gets you most of the way off and then bolts because she doesn't want to deal with the mess, how insulting would this be - i had a friend who used to make her man go to the toilet to finish the job
-
Launching into some speech about not being an object for sex when he tries to titty fuck you. Jesus Christ, just push them together and enjoy yourself. You get a great view. Yes, you do
-
Expecting him to handle you like a porcelain doll all of the time, a rough quickie can be very satisfying - so long as it doesn't go too far.
-
Refusing to try things in the name of "making love". Variety is the spice of life
-
Taking things way too seriously. Sex is funny. Actually it's hilarious. Somewhere along the line, someone is going to fall off of a bed, hit their head on a lighting fixture, accidentally kick a midget or trip over a goat. It's how you deal with it that really matters. couldnt agree more
-
Throwing a bitch fit when he asks for a threesome. Unless he is serious!
-
Continuing a blow job knowing that you have god-awful cotton mouth. Really. Grab a bottle of water. Never happens to me!
-
Nails. It's one thing tracing them up and down your partners back. It's another when you snag the goods with a claw, oh yes, dooo be careful
-
complainingwhen you get jizz on you. You're having sex, it does get messy.
-
Not making any noises at all. Moan. Scream his name when he does something you like - he will follow your lead and please you more
-
Faking orgasms. Just. Don't. By faking (IF he believes you) he thinks he's doing everything right. And if he doesn't know it's not working, he's not going to change it. Starting a vicious cycle of unfulfilling sex which will eventually be very damaging to his ego. Yes totally agree (but to my shame i have sort of done this)
-
Not washing before sex. I know that sex is spontaneous, this is more of a general statement. If you haven't showered that day, and things smell a little... fishy... perhaps demanding oral sex is a little ridiculous of you, well yes
-
Anything that involves inserting anything into his body that he has not specifically approved beforehand. I don't care what Cosmo says, some things are simply not pleasant surprises, Works both ways really - don't expect him to be pleased if you poke your finger up his bum without fair warning, but do suggest it, he'll be begging for more!
-
Refusing to use oils/whipped cream/other messy but fun things because you have these rare Egyptian cotton sheets that were made by hand by the only person alive capable of sewing that pattern. Use a different room!
-
Doing all of your before bed things before sex. Yes, sleeping with makeup on is bad. Now is not the time to remove it, you can do that later. Spoils the moment
-
Cleaning up after sex. Wiping the splooge off is one thing but making a big deal of it is going to disturb the poor luv.
-
Making a big deal out of it if he loses his hard on. This is not an interrogation, or 20 questions. It happens, he's probably mortified and you are NOT helping. Refrain from using phrases like "it happens to every guy". Just move to other activities until it gets hard again, and if it doesn't, get off another way with him. He's still capable of getting you off. Mumbling "forget it" and rolling over are not ok. Coukddn't agree more - you dont want to turn this into an issuee.
-
Asking questions right afterwards. The woman equivalent of "was it good for you?". Just enjoy the moment!
Now, i challenge anyone to find something mysogenistic in THAT now ive changed the wording, only very slightly!
