(Dude…you’re a dude? I don’t think I knew that. On the other hand, I may tell you that once a year or something, so nevermind. As my fiance says, I have a really good memory, it’s just really really short.)

Oh, I hear ya! There have been a couple of times when I get really carried away and some utter porndreck comes out of my mouth as genuine exclamation, only I hear myself and I’m suddenly struck by the absurdity that is sexual intercourse and then I’m all in my head and the moment is over. Over, I tell you! Self consciousness is \*not \*sexy.

Ralphie May. (It was just on Comedy Central tonight.)

And to add my two cents on topic: I prefer European porn, because the women actually seem to enjoy themselves. Without the excess noise and play-by-play narration.

I was reading some study a few weeks ago that measured the vocalizations of women during sex somehow - it was found that their (male) partners reached orgasm more quickly the more noise the women made. I have no idea how to google this though.
