I'd be interested in reading the article just because I can't imagine what it says that could possibly interest me in participating in more vanilla sex and less kinky sex. I mean, yes, vanilla sex can be VERY hot -- but I would never voluntarily damp down the kinkiness factor in my sex life and I doubt any article will convince me to try it. <br /><br />(Actually, I know a little about magazine titles, and of course this is just one more way to get the word "sex" on the cover, to make people want to buy the magazine.)<br /><br />It occurs to me that vanilla definitely means different things to different people. Remembering the details of what your wife used to tolerate in the bedroom makes my vanilla husband seem positively kinky to me. And he's very vanilla. <br /><br />--AnaisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31278044.post-84694679657025850752009-08-21T11:32:32.152-04:002009-08-21T11:32:32.152-04:00Sigh. . .

ANY sex, whether its missionary with the lights out or getting it on in some semi-public place can be GREAT or TERRIBLE depending on where you are emotionally or mentally with your partner and how engaged in the moment you are. RS and I have had some just okay technically "wild" sex, and some mind blowing vanilla sex (and the reverse, too, of course). The positions, props, costumes, locations, etc. ultimately, don't have as much to do with how awesome the sex is as where your mind is at the time.<br /><br />But maybe I just say that because I'm a woman.Therese in Heavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13607519856275927706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31278044.post-2773502712992292092009-08-20T22:27:05.429-04:002009-08-20T22:27:05.429-04:00Yes, it's true.
