People Are Sharing The Most Overhyped Things About Sex That Aren't Actually That Big Of A Deal
There are a lot of overhyped things in life, one of them being sex. People on Reddit have a lot of different opinions on what is overrated when it comes to time in the saddle. Here's what they had to say:
1."Honestly, the whole 'mind-blowing every time' thing is way overhyped. Sometimes it's just perfectly fine, and that's okay too.'
"Sometimes it's the destination, sometimes it's the ride. With any luck, you're doing it often enough that it's not the end of the world if it's not mind-blowing. Oh, darn, we'll have to try again. What an imposition."
2."All sorts of wacky positions. Cramps and exhaustion set in quicker than you think."
3."Performance, like come on! Just enjoy yourself and have fun together. You all need to chill out."
"As someone who naturally lasts longer, I can tell you many women do not want a man who can go all night. It frequently causes self-image issues in new partners."
4."Some people are so weird about laughing during sex but honestly, if you're comfortable with your partner, being able to laugh with each other during sex is very freeing and can relieve any awkward tension."
5."Sex with someone you love exceeds all the hype. Random sex is so overhyped it’s sad."
6."If we have already passionately kissed and are now going to get naked, you can stop worrying about what I'll think about your body or penis size when you get naked. That thought is already past tense."
7."Shower sex."
8."Having an orgasm. I'm a bit of a difficult orgasmer. I can do it easily when totally solo, but for whatever reason of how my body is wired, it's quite difficult for me with a partner — it's almost like there's just too much mental and physical stimulation going on, so I can't get the focus I need to get there. Maybe like 10% of the time, if the sex is awesome. But the thing is, I find it really doesn't matter. If the sex is amazing, I'm equally and totally satisfied whether I orgasm or not. But people so often talk about how orgasm is the end all and be all of the sex, or like, 'Girl, if he doesn't make you come five times, dump him,' or whatever. And it's like, hell no, I'm having fucking amazing sex. The orgasm is a pretty minor feature."
9."The other person is enjoying it just as much as you are so get out of your head and be in the moment together."
10."Dick size. I don’t have a cervix anymore, but when I did, I sure didn’t want it pounded with every thrust on a regular basis. Most women climax from clitoral stimulation, and almost every guy I’ve slept with who was 'above average' seemed to think his size was all he needed to bring to the table."
11."Risqué sex. People look for new ways to 'keep the spark alive.' I'm happy to rinse and repeat (no pun intended). As long as you commit to foreplay, sex doesn't need to be exciting."
12."Two women at the same time. I mean, it’s a big deal in that it’s unlikely. But if it does happen, it feels more like the responsibility of pleasing two women at once and less like the favor of BEING pleasured by two women at once."
13."The 69 position. I like both 6 and 9, but I'd rather focus on one at a time."
"Me too! I can’t walk and chew gum at the same time, much less service and be serviced simultaneously."
14."Porn positions are often not very comfortable or engaging for one or both partners."
15."Queefing is normal and actually really funny. Stop making it gross."
