So vanilla I can’t believe I’m admitting it, but - being wanked off to orgasm. Love it, especially when doing it to someone else at the same time. ---

nth’d to the oral, but also from behind. Even better is putting a thumb in the butt. Increases the penile sensation while inside. Anyone else, giving or receiving, like this too? ---

I’m all about the esoteric touches, like rubbing the underside of the head of the winged snake of light Hadit across the erect nipples of Nuit. And doing a six goddess chant, just before going down to lap the chalice thouroughly always goes over well. “You say that love is to pray, but I’m sorry, I don’t pray that way.” -Soft Cell. Too bad, you really should give it a try. ---

Giving oral here, as well. I’ve always loved it, but even more so since I’ve had dentures. (Seriously, hear me out on this!) I don’t use any kind of adhesive, so it’s a serious challenge to give good head while keeping my teeth from “floating” loose and causing injury. So I sorta get off - pardon the pun - on the knowledge that I’m accomplishing something very difficult while giving my husband his pleasure. FTR, yes, I did goof once. My hands were being held behind my back, and he stuck his dick in my mouth without thinking. The angle was way wrong, and he hit the plate in the roof of my mouth. That knocked my teeth loose, and he was effectively trapped until he let go of me so I could grab my teeth and press them back p where they belonged. Happened too quick to be painful, but it was still quite a scar few seconds! Also, close second is the doggystyle with a finger in the butt. Good call, **BellRungBookShut-CandleSnuffed**!! ---

3 ways. Much more enjoyable than one on one. They last longer 'cause you can rest for a bit. ---

Oral, giving and getting (well, getting is slightly in the lead in terms of preferences). Also, doggy style. ---

[QUOTE=Manda JO] And one has to assume that modern hygiene standards have caused a bit of a shift, here. [/QUOTE] That presents quite a contemplation, doesn’t it? In days of yore, before the sanitation standards had risen to today’s expectations, were people so keen on plunging their heads betwixt another’s legs? Do you suppose General George Washington was a fan of sampling a bit of Martha’s snatch? Do you think that Marie Antoinette was pleased when she had the chance to swallow royal man meat? The mind boggles. ---

Well, maybe, but then people smelled a bit riper all round, so it wasn’t like going from the scented rose-garden of your beloved’s bosom to the rancid bilgewater of a Grimsby fishing-smack, I guess. Plain straightforward vaginal intercourse, also oral either way round, is what I mostly [del]pine nostalgically for[/del] enjoy. I meant enjoy. Honest. Everything in _my_ garden is lovely, yessirree. /slinks out of thread [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/yet-a-nother-sex-poll-what-is-your-favorite-act/459464.md?page=2)
