Egg whisk? Really, it’s true what they say–it takes all kinds to make a world. _shudder_  
[/QUOTE]

Please say you’re wooshing me, the egg whisk was a joke.

Oh and threeway, apparently this is common? Not for me. Dress-ups and bondage just make me giggle.

Dear Og, I’m vanilla!

I have got to stop contributing to these threads - I post that I don’t like spanking and realise that I’ve implied I \*am \*into all \*sorts \*of other things I hadn’t even considered. I play along with a joke and worry that I’ve been taken seriously.

Real sex is much easier than talking about it here.

The egg Whisk was a JOKE!!??

Sheesh!

Now I have to rewrite chapter 4 of the sex manual I was working on.

thanks a lot!

At least the stuff about the spatual still works- can’t figure out how to install the batteries, though.

Define “normal” sex…

While I somewhat enjoy (clean) giving and receiving of rimming, I had to stop both because I kept getting strep throat from it.

I tend to only enjoy fucking if the guy is fairly tight, and receiving oral only if the guy doesn’t overdo it to the point of going numb.

And what turns me on tends to vary with my level of horniness. If I’ve just jerked off, then contemplating anything but vanilla sex grosses me out. But if I’m really horny, I start thinking about some really kinky shit…

I always thought that I was weird for not really being into receiving cunnilingus; we’ve done it a few times and it was… OK, but it’s been many years now and I don’t feel like I’m missing anything. It’s good to know that I’m not alone. (For the record, I _give_ oral pretty much every time.)

Well, I don’t know about an egg wisk, but definitely don’t use an elictric egg beater. Trying to explain that to the EMTs is always so embarrassing. They can be so judgemental.

Seriously, the finger in the anus thing: I have hemroids, and the finger thing will stop any sex act so very quickly that I don’t even want to think about it. I am shifting uncomfortably now.

I’m something of an anomaly among gay men, but I dislike giving BJs to the point of being incapable of it. I’m just plain bad at it - I have a small mouth and a sensitive gag reflex, so it just doesn’t work out even if it held any particular appeal for me (which it doesn’t). Also not a huge fan of _receiving_ a BJ. It’s nice enough for a while, but it’s usually not enough stimulation to get me off.

Also, receiving anal is out. I suppose that’s not terribly unusual, as many (if not most) gay men designate themselves “top” or “bottom.” It’s excruciatingly painful for me.

\*Anal receptive – probably unusual tor a male homo whose presentation skews somewhat nellie-ish, but I just do not enjoy letting another guy up in there, although I am fond of a vibrating bullet when I’m working solo.

\*Kissing doesn’t usually do much for me; exceptions can be (have been/will perhaps be) made.

\*Prolonged BJs. I like giving a guy head for like 20 minutes, but longer than a half hour or so is just tedious to me, which negatively effects my performance until a cycle of frustration kicks in. Fast and furious is how i like it.
