Its very un-natural. When your husband is away, you wait till he comes home and you hope he does the same. If you cant forego the sex act while he is off fighting a war then your one hot tamale. Sex is supposed to be intimacy, touching, and pleasure. That thing is just plain old masturbation with someone watching you. Aint nothin like the real thing baby.Catchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05693116257747111018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30644215.post-1160471762495912112006-10-10T06:16:00.000-03:002006-10-10T06:16:00.000-03:00I have been in and out of this particular post so ...I have been in and out of this particular post so many times now.

If you are talking pure sex and fun - great toy, tell me where to sign up. However, intimacy is hearing your partners voice on the phone. Their words travel your body and make you feel them deeply. They can simply whisper or take a deep breah that can cause you to open yourself physically as if they are right above you. I want to hear his voice guiding my fingers and holding me there.....until...Penrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14367348532147673750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30644215.post-1160356510497111032006-10-08T22:15:00.000-03:002006-10-08T22:15:00.000-03:00Whats the big deal?..If it works for the military ...Whats the big deal?..If it works for the military guys, so what?

If it is a follow up to physical sex, then I don't have a problem if you are seperated by distance; you know where to touch, the spots that make her ooh and ahh, you know the feeling of her body against yours.<BR/><BR/>Nothing compares to the real thing, love making needs to be stimulated by the senses - the FEEL of your lovers body, the SCENT of her during and after sex, the SIGHT of her body and her expressions when making love especially during orgasm, the TASTE of her (we will leave that to the imagination) and the SOUND of her ohhs and ahhs or cries of passion during the act.<BR/><BR/>SEX is one thing but MAKING LOVE with your partner is another.nzdanboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05051148138313623072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30644215.post-1160327161415833032006-10-08T14:06:00.000-03:002006-10-08T14:06:00.000-03:00My husband and I bought his/her vibrating underwea...My husband and I bought his/her vibrating underwear that come with two alternate remote controls that you can attach to your keyring. Looks just like a car key remote. <BR/><BR/>Cyber or Phone sex are a gateway to more terrible and uncooth kinky activities. Before you know it you'll both be hooked on having secret public sex!! <BR/><BR/>The next time you run into an elderly couple grocery shopping together - chances are high they also have on this vibrating undie set. <BR/><BR/>Trust me, it is better to stick with simple sex, missionary style and keep a sheet between you. Anything else will mean we've let romantic love escape the confines of the bedroom!Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04330486400933062955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30644215.post-1160318089929638322006-10-08T11:34:00.000-03:002006-10-08T11:34:00.000-03:00Where does one get this thing?

Just think about all the people you know who have a great sex life but can't stand being around one another all the time.

Well as someone who only sees their husband...Hmmm. Well as someone who only sees their husband once every six months or so... I would have to say I wouldn't do it. I am fairly sure he would list this as "haram" anyway. <BR/><BR/>I don't think it would be too "out there" but I imagine it would eventually become more relegated to the "place" in society that sex toys sit in now... and just join them. Not every American has one (or more), and they are still mildly shocking in a sense-- like you aren't going to just pull a toy out and slap it down on your mother's kitchen table... usually... I think also it has to do with privacy. We tend to keep this stuff slightly more private than what you ate last night or where you went, and I have a feeling this would be the same way.<BR/><BR/>So? No, I don't see it becoming mainstream because most people will likely continue in the tried and true fashion of up close and personal. For those who live in seperation, like me, you'll eventually realize it's not touch that makes intimacy. It's minds and emotions coming together and learning to verbally connect and reach your partner emotionally. Few people would tell you that physical touch makes intimacy over emotional bonding if they really thought about it. Yeah, I miss his touch more than anything... but his touch only means something to me because of the emotional and intellectual bonds we share. Otherwise , it wouldn't be any different than any other male I see every day.Katkoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12165342896298946047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30644215.post-1160313504861901232006-10-08T10:18:00.000-03:002006-10-08T10:18:00.000-03:00I'm with pj.I think they got the name right. sin u...I'm with pj.<BR/><BR/>I think they got the name right. sin u lator.<BR/><BR/>That isn't real intimacy or anything close to it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30644215.post-1160294396960853002006-10-08T04:59:00.000-03:002006-10-08T04:59:00.000-03:00Good God I hope this is never considered normal.Good God I hope this is never considered normal.PJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01812818844198864668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30644215.post-1160281922790958052006-10-08T01:32:00.000-03:002006-10-08T01:32:00.000-03:00Oh sure, blame ME.Oh sure, blame ME.Shanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09720024916714288188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30644215.post-1160274695478527342006-10-07T23:31:00.000-03:002006-10-07T23:31:00.000-03:00Oh...that just makes me feel so uncomfortable...my...Oh...that just makes me feel so uncomfortable...my teenaged son would never leave his room!Wendy C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14097649136157565627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30644215.post-1160256697508281082006-10-07T18:31:00.000-03:002006-10-07T18:31:00.000-03:00Shan: You may have coined a new term: "the cyberlo...Shan: You may have coined a new term: "the cyberlove lifestyle."<BR/><BR/>Lisa: The suit is just my future "what if" scenario.

Except for freaks who try to justify it and then expect everyone else to accept them, to the point where it'll be considered discrimination to insult the cyberlove lifestyle.<BR/><BR/>It won't be worth the expense. Maybe in a long time, we'll have virtual reality (that used to be popular!) zones, which will be normal. But use of it for intimate encounters will be seen by the general public as disgusting like pornography.<BR/><BR/>Just a prediction. I think I would've preferred not knowing about this technology.Shanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09720024916714288188noreply@blogger.com
