Well! I certainly found it interesting!
Some good advice, some "okay" and "whatever" advice. The writer isn't completely woman sensitive. Like I was reading on another board about how some guys wife won't have oral because she had a bad experience that traumatized her. Well, with that first little note I can really fault Tracy Cox for making all the women who have serious non-dismissable issues with oral sex feel as though they've dropped to the bottom of the chain. I would agree however with squeamishness in regards to semen. Personally I love it when my guy mess' on my stomach and legs. So I think for sure there's some women who have "romanticized" sex to some clean, proper, this is how it's done only one way to do it activity; when it fact it's completely opposite! I like her experimentation bit! And the pumpkin pie on the naval sounds like a lot of fun! I would also agree with women having to know their own body. I'm sick of hearing remarks about how men can't make them reach their ultimate heights and here I'm thinking, "can you even bring yourself to any high height?" And I would agree yet again on taking charge. For some women though this means "aggression" for others it means "assertion". I find as soon as I initiate it kind of becomes a fun competition like who can strip the other fastest or how much of a tease can I be while still keeping him tamed (for the time being) ;) And the big thing I'm glad she brought up was "embarrassment". Women are raised and told so much how to behave in the kitchen, in the office, around the kids, that it effects how free they are in the bedroom. And I think women definately need comfortable with their bodies and their man's bodies. If you feel you must, then alright shower first, whatever, but make it comfortable, don't just give up because he likes sex right after he's done working out or right when you wake up in the morning. But then again, I also guess it depends on how much you value your relationship and how hard you're willing to work for it.
