Do you need better bedroom etiquette?
I can think of a couple of things a lot of people don’t feel comfortable telling their partners about their bedroom etiquette. When it comes to being intimate, you would think that no conversation is off limits. The reality is that some people have hang ups about sex and talking about sex with their partner.
What do you do when your partner has made a few wrong moves and you need to let them know? I think many people are oblivious to some things. Maybe you are not showing proper etiquette to your partner and they don’t want to outright tell you about it.
For the purpose of enlightenment (that’s what we do here, right?!), what are ways to improve your “etiquette” in the bedroom? What should you be mindful of when it comes to you and your partner?
According to your good/bad experiences, what should you do/ never do?
Even though it’s an “adult”, try your very best to keep things PG, people. Imagine your seven-year old daughter/son/niece/nephew is reading. Talk in code!

It’s not pitch black in any room in my house.
SexyCool, our room can be pretty dark when I close the curtains. But we do have room downstairs that doesn’t have a window, you can’t see your own hand in front of your face when the lights are out.

I’ve had a dude ask me why I didn’t wrap my hair up when I got in the bed. I have a lot of hair so I guess it be everywhere…in the eye, mouth etc. LOL! I’m not sure why he wanted it wrapped up because afterwards he’d be like…what happened to your hair thingy, then start laughing.
I think it’s funny after you do the do, both of yall are up doing the underwear & bra search. It’s so strange how those garments seem to grow legs and hide during the act. One time I don’t think my thongs surfaced for at least a week. LOLOLOL

Candles are nice in the bathroom around the tub and on the counter. Turn the lights of and the candlelight reflecting off the mirror gives a nice ambiance. Sometimes I light candles when I just want to have a nice relaxing warm bath and soak away the cares of the day. A little music and a little candle light…very nice.

BlackMagic — Awwwwww yeah…. Mrs. Swiss does the landing strip, too… I am a fan.
ARed — On the candles/fire… Yeah that happened to me once in college… This chic I was dating had a whole desk top filled with candles, but with a big piece of cardboard underneath to keep the wax off the desk. I woke up from a deep, eruption-induced sleep to find that whole cardboard in flames…
I jumped over the bytch like a nekkid Superman & used my ice-breath to blow the fire out! 
I still can’t believe I was able to blow that hard… adrenaline, I guess….

SlimOne, one time Mason and I were at a hotel and after the relating I was looking for my things after we had gotten out of the shower. I could not find my panties. He was sitting on the foot of the bed flipping thru the tv channels while I was starting to get dressed. I looked every where and could not find them. I picked up his stuff to see if they were underneath and nothing. It was a total mystery. Kinda scary. LOL After a while of looking I just screw it I’ll have to run to house to get another pair before going back to work. While putting his pants on he realized they were in his pocket. LOL
After we had entered the room he had pinned me against the door and removed them during the passionate frenzy. He stuffed them in his pocket. I guess we were so caught up he had forgotten that he did.
That was the weirdest moment looking for those things and not knowing for the life of me where they were.

Well, since we’ve delved into disgusting parental nekkidness/sex stories…
My best friend dated this chic in high school whose parents were FA-REAKS. What made it even worse: her dad was a pentecostal minister! One night he had just dropped her off at home & when he got back to his place his phone was blowing up… She had walked in to find her parents going at it on the couch… DOGGIE STYLE!
Apparently the Right Reverend was tapping that azz good…

LOL SexyCool, my grandmother had a lot of pride so I don’t think I ever even saw her in her undies while she lived with us. Now she would say darn near anything. No shame.
She is the one that taught me the phrase “Keep your man’s belly full and his prostate empty”. LOL

I do not know what made my mom go to the kitchen naked as I was walking in. Just a big shrub.
