Kricket, if I’m gonna post bail…I’m gonna do the christening.

Kitten, guess what…I masturbate too! 😉 If you wanna grab a beer sometimes and have a little guy talk, you just let me know!

Fine. I’ve done it. Thought it was fun. Would do it again, given the appropriate situation.

Hmmm…anal sex. I agree that it is extremely taboo, but I talk about it with my best friend all the time, who is gay and therefore quite experianced with it.

As be there, not too concerned about the details!for personal experiance, never done it! I am still kind of young though, and into plain old bread and butter sex - I’m just happy to

However, one time…an ex-boyfriend, ahem, ummm, put a, ahem, finger there and…it wasn’t that bad. In fact, I liked it.

Anyway, logically I know this will never happen, but I have this image of some person who as over-anal sexed walking around stooped over in a diaper. I mean, what does it do to those sphincter muscles? Pretty scary! So right now, there is an exit-only sign over top my butt.

And here I was ready for a thread about _caving_, a topic I can’t remember having been broached on the SDMB.

Never given or received anal sex. OTOH, back in my single days, I once had a hot n’ heavy time with a girlfriend in a cave we were exploring together. (Double entendre opportunity, if you want it!)

Sara…we’ll see if I ever flirt with you agian!

_just kidding!_ 😉

Anyways, to offer a little more detail in hopes of stimulating conversation. In regards to the finger thing, I’ve done that with a girl, it was the first step we took after discussing trying anal sex. I did it, and she _really_ liked it, this boded well and we intended to eventually go all the way on the first “special occasion”, unfortunately shortly after we moved into a long distance relationship which eventually destroyed the relationship before getting around to exploring. Oh, and I was really excited by her enthusiasm during the fingering. Prior to that I don’t think I was that interested in trying anal sex, it was just one of those things I figured I oughta try once. After seeing her go wild its become more of a exciting fantasy I’d like to try.

_thinking this thread is a example of my horrible impulse control getting me into trouble_

Well, Omni, everyone… I’m the type who just never gets lucky, but I’ve heard stories from my friends ::cough cough::… apparently, the front door is still a subject of paranoia and the mouth is just a tad too small… so I guess, in some cases, anal sex is the better-accepted option.

Well, you don’t score a 29 on the prurity test without doing  
a lot of strange, so, yes, miner’s helmet and all.😃

And outdoors, too, OK, Kricket? It is fun if there is a slight chance of being caught, eh? 😉

Psycho Kitten: welcome to the SDMB! I’m always ready to “break in” another “virgin”, heh , heh. 😃 😉

Strange. This is the third sex related thread I’ve posted to in two days. With a post count as low as mine, I guess this means it’s time for me to turn off the ‘puter and go out.

Anyway, I’m a fan of back yard sports and I’ve played for both teams. I’ve known players that absolutely love butt sex and I’ve known some that fear it more than death.

An interesting point that’s been mentioned in this thread is the finger frolic variety. I’ve yet to meet a woman who does not love a bit of devilish digital diversion during oral sex. The ones whom I have introduced to this idea have been pleasantly surprised by their own enjoyment. Still, some are not able to get their . . . um . . . minds around the idea of a penis instead of a finger.

Kitten: BOTH! 😉 :D.

(Actually I’m “taken”, so I’m “harmless”.)

But, I will give one picture – midnite, outside, in a parking lot, bent over the car, short skirt hiked up, pants unzipped, traffic going by…

Oh God.

As if Wally dying wasn’t bad enough, I just found out that Peter McWilliams died this June 16th, apparently from choking on his own vomit because of nausea. (He’d been taking marijuana to reduce his nausea, before the law clamped down on him.) [http://dpsinfo.com/dps/pmnote.shtml](http://dpsinfo.com/dps/pmnote.shtml)

I even have an e-mail from Peter McWilliams sitting around in my inbox from a couple years ago. I admit I never met him in person, or even chatted on line with him; but damn, I’m gonna miss that guy. ☹

Been there, done that. We’re in VA, so break out the cuffs and drag us away.

Been curious about receiving. Been curious about a lot of stuff, so there.

I even have a really old humor book by Peter McWilliams sitting on my shelf. I got it for Christmas 'way back when I was still living with my parents. It was entitled _The McWilliams II Word Processor_. (The “word processor” was a pencil, get it?)

I still remember McWilliams’s appearance on _Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher_. I think he was already HIV-positive at the time. I still don’t know how he contracted the virus.

Libertarian (the poster who frequents the Great Debates forum) touted McWilliams, due to the nature of his death, as a martyr in the War On Drugs. Personally, I actually don’t like the idea of making Peter McWilliams out to be a martyr. It detracts from the sense of loss I have about missing him as a _person_, as someone I sorta knew. I may not have agreed with everything he said, but for me, for whatever reason, his death felt kinda … personal to me.
