Do you discuss your sex lives with your friends or coworkers? How would you feel if your partner shared intimate details?

3 years ago by Cantstopthesignal to c/sex

Hi all, I just created this group so we could have a safe space sex discussion and advice group similar to the /r/sex subreddit.

I figured I could get the ball rolling with this post.

How do you feel about discussing your private sex life with your friends or coworkers? Personally if a friend brings something up I will usually answer without going into too many details. I don't really say anything that I wouldn't say in front of my partner, but don't mind healthy discussion or the occasional joke. I do have friends that overshare, and friends that won't discuss their sex lives at all. I know I wouldn't mind if my wife shared some general details but I would be extremely uncomfortable if she shared any intimate details or preferences in the bedroom. Oddly, myself and my wife both find sharing anonymous details on the internet perfectly fine.

How does the community feel about this topic?

I think OPs lines are good general guidelines for appropriate conversation about sex with people other than your partner.

I was more lax about sharing details about hookups in my younger years before meeting my SO. It felt much less weird to brag to friends about those details when it was a random one night stand or Tinder hookup who they'll never meet, vs. my partner who they'll regularly see and interact with.
