    Maybe I should define "peverted" as something one would not want to be ;)

    I also assumed that (LIR and PN are no doubt thinking how boring), it was the fact that you identified only those 2 things as being perverted which therefore implied that anything else goes....
    I think....

    Any way there are double standards in operation - I try to be gallant and get accused of being a perv and yet PN and LIR are both writing hardcore !!!!!! in their spare time...

    Ah. It's like men in their socks aren't sexy to any women, perky men are rarely admired. Where as some man somewhere always wants a (I am sure mse will star out the next word).....or a woman in stockings or over the knee socks.

    Anyway, I have no idea what PN writes....:).


    Edit: perky was obviously a typo. We like perky men :)

    Providing said stockings and socks aren't there to provide relief from one's varicose veins presumably.

    Why boring? I don't think anything of the sort. In fact, honestly, I don't tend to think about other people's sex lives that much unless its an actual topic of conversation...that they raise.

    My sex life now is much more 'boring' by perversion standards. Doesn't mean it's not better. Gilded lilies I suppose.

    It's elegant, dignified and to many, probably to your disgust, incredibly sexy. ;).

    :o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o nope.

    Some of us just cannot do sexy talk. I do not even know what sexting is. (I needed to know at work)Someone tried to explain it was like phone sex. I was no wiser...although somewhat horrified at how you would ever make a call on it again.

    I dunno, men are pretty good at imagining. I hate stockings now I have hefty thighs. I think I look like two netted hams packed for home slicing. Discussing this with friends none of my less svelt of thigh friends have had their men react negatively to stockings. I wonder if men don't have some sort of hall of mirrors in their minds that instead of making things look more gruesome makes them look magically less bad. If so they should sell it to women. The world would be a happier place!

    I love how we are all different. I have a friend in her forties who simply cannot make the first move, even with her long term partners, yet she accepts the first move of many more people than I would consider seemly.

    People are different. I see no benefit in comparing apples to oranges, so long as all the fruits are happy.

    Edit: Mind you , despite a firmly open attitude to sex I have to say I have asked my mother to stop asking me what somethings mean/are. I think the final straw was when she had another woman over for tea and they asked me what a particular sexual position was by its name. Trying to describe what goes where to not just your mother but another septuagenarian who is enquiring as to why people might do that was a bit odd.

    Quite. Equally when they tell you stuff that you don't want to know. I've told my mother they are conversations I just don't want to have. I was mortified when she told me what dogging was after watching an article about it on Richard and Judy. Daytime TV for pensioners has a lot to answer for.

    As far as my parents are concerned, I remain firmly with brain of my eight year old self, thinking that the Queen became present by Prince Phillip because when they went to sleep at night the sperm walked down his pyjama leg and up her nightie.

    Habits I cannot tempt my mother from include calling walking the dogs 'dogging' in conversation with people she barely knows...' Oh, I am going to go dogging with my daughter':eek: and calling trousers 'pants'. She has been in the uk for many a long year now, They are TROUSERS here. Not pants. I think I find the pants thing more upsetting than the dogging tbh.
