Why don't posh people have love bites?

I've noticed the rougher mums at DC's school regularly sport juicy love bites.

The posh mums would never in a million years drop their kids off with love bites on show.

Do the er, "lower classes" have better more passionate sex?

No, they're just "slag stamps". I imagine the more middle class of the mothers don't have them on show.

MadreInglese · 06/07/2010 20:46

perhaps they just have them in more discreet places

Remotew · 06/07/2010 20:46

Maybe the posher ones grew out of it at 14 as I did or maybe the young mums are still 14. Dunno, I'm not posh btw.

The posh have them above the knee and below the waist.

Funny how having a silk scarf tied oh-so-elegantly round your neck comes into and out of fashion...

SixtyFootDoll · 06/07/2010 20:50

I have never had a love bite in my life

Hulababy · 06/07/2010 21:01

Because they look horrid???

Why would anyone want one? Don't think they mean passionate sex TBH either.

Mumcentreplus · 06/07/2010 21:06

They wear stylish scarves over them my dear...

Sixty you are missin out! ..its just so obviously tarty ..

There's something primal about leaving your mark on someone, whether it's a lovebite, a hand print or an actual bite or scratch. Mine aren't on show .

LisaD1 · 06/07/2010 21:31

Because they're mank! I have NEVER had a love bite in my life and it's not because I'm posh, I grew up on a rough North London Council Estate but we were taught to respect ourselves, my dad would have gone mental if we had gone home with one!

Mumcentreplus · 06/07/2010 21:33

have you ever given on Lisa?..in a moment of lushful behaviour

I am as common as arseholes and i dont have or give love bites. if DP tried he'd get a knee to the sack.

they are vile.

Mumcentreplus · 06/07/2010 21:39

knee to the sack = non mouth induced love bite

fizzfiend · 06/07/2010 22:38

I've always thought love bites are statements: look at me..I have a boyfriend/girlfriend so I'm gorgeous. It's an advert that you're having sex. Much better to have thumbprints on your inner thighs lol!

ItsGraceActually · 06/07/2010 22:50

I always thought love bites were a mark of ownership. Might not mean anything sinister on the very young & experimental, but once you've grown up? So "carried away by passion" that you mark your lover's body in a way that's publicly visible? Do me a favour.

EcoMouse · 07/07/2010 06:58

What Grace said!

I only ever sported love bites when I was young and stupid and I'm afraid I did want everyone to know that dh (dp then) and I were very much together (he had his fair share too). But I also mark very very easily, so it doesn't take much.

I'm also fairly posh as these things go.

Actually the part of my life when I had love bites had fairly crap sex really, because we didn't really know what we were doing - twenty years of practice and techniques are much improved
