You know when your partner does something during sex that does nothing for you, but you’re way too nice to say something? Or like when you really want to try something but are afraid to sound like an aspiring internet sex worker?
Me too.
I mean, for the most part, I’m pretty good at being my own sex advocate. Like in the heat of the moment when Andy started calling me Baby. Over and over baby… baby…. and it was… the most hilarious thing I’d ever heard. He calls me baby exactly never in real life. So hearing it come out of his mouth made me think, wait, did an infant just crawl in here (it’s happened before)? And then I just started laughing. I don’t like dirty talk, it’s too contrived and unbelievable for me in bed. I want him to call me during sex what he calls me in real life. So, like… okay actually he usually just points at me or calls me “go ask your mother.” In fact, the only time he uses my name is when I’m in trouble or he’s renewing our plates at the DMV. But the point is, I asked him to stop or start giving me a nickname in real life, and then transfer that to the bedroom.
But what about the other stuff? The kinkier stuff? The stuff you may admit to your group of best friends when you’re super drunk, but in the light of day, you’re pleading missionary? How do you bring up that stuff?
Yesterday a group of girlfriends shared this really great interactive sex questionnaire (NOT like the shit you read in Cosmo, we already know how to give blow jobs and juggle balls Cosmo, Christ, evolve or shut up) that you complete separately with your partner. When you both complete it, it gives you results featuring only the answers you both agreed on.
Andy and I took the quiz last night, and stayed up until 2am in bed just talking and laughing about our answers. Which was a welcome break in the routine of quick before bed sex or late night Top Gear marathons. We had no idea what we wanted beyond the basic stuff, and I guess we’d never thought – or had the guts – to ask. What about you?

My husband is at a company wide meeting today. I am sending him the link and telling him he has to do it today. :)
Sooo today I learned what feltching was lol.
The more you know!
Definitely going to take this. But what happens if you find out one of you is WAY kinkier than the other?
You don’t. It only shows you the answers you agree on.
Beware, a commonly used tactic is to go through and answer “Yes” to everything just to find out what a freak your mate is…
I like this in general, but am bummed that the only gender options are “male” and “female.” Some people don’t identify with either one.
I’m single and didn’t take the quiz, but I looked at some of the fantasies and realized
how vanilla I am. Also, earplugs during sex? Can someone explain why that would be fun?
I giggled a lot when I read that one.
Is it weird that I saw that and was like, wait, is that a thing? Can I wear them ALWAYS?
I’m kind of proud of how many “we already do that” answers we both had. Apparently we’re both freaks. Which I kind of knew.
D isn’t back from the marriage retreat that I missed…but I am totally going to use this as fourplay maybe…I am not telling him that just in case blow job and juggling balls are on here because I am not in the mood for that…
I’m at work.
Got the “You’re a perv trying to look at kinky stuff at work” screen.
I’m doing it at home.
You’re awesome and got even awesomer when you just threw out there, “how to give blow jobs and juggle balls.”
I swear I think I pee’d a little. =)
He thinks it’s a trap, but I’m going to get him to take this somehow!!
My husband and I are going to take the test in a bit. He says he’s already perverted lol.. Just want to know how we’d do… More to come….
