What makes a person 'good in bed'? Everybody wants to be it, but what exactly constitutes good in bed? I have thought about this question recently, trying to pinpoint what I did and didn't like about partners, and also what I can and can't do. Considering penetrative sex is out of the question in my case, the mainstream opinion might declare I don't have any skills in bed. But I'd like to think that I get naked and exchange fluids with others on a regular enough basis to let that detail slide. Here is what I've come up with:
Easy to talk to: This person doesn't pass judgement, they don't get butt-hurt every time you say you'd like to try a different act. They don't feel threatening.
Perceptive: Falls under the similar easy to talk to category. They can read body language, frequently check in on you if they can't. Seeks positive feedback before moving on.
Reasonably un-squeamish: In order to have a broad spectrum of sexual fun, a person should expect to get sweaty, sticky, smell different things, stick one's face in various crevices, swallow various fluids. And yes, even a pube or two. Nothing unreasonable, but a person who's terrified of natural body functions, or thinks that a rim job means you're gonna be eating shit usually gets crossed off of the Good In Bed list.
Open minded: Everybody has limits, and no one should ever do anything they don't want to do, but indulging someone's tastes just for a try (Within reasonable limits of course!) might end up with a sexy surprise.
Willing to try different pleasure routes: Sometimes our bodies don't cooperate in the ways we want them too, and thus it's important to be inventive. Keeps things fresh.
Self-Control: Knows when to stop when things get too intense, chafey, painful or unpleasant. Doesn't push the boundaries more than is appropriate. Respects partners rules always.
Multitasks well: Although not required, anybody who can multitask reasonably well gets a star in my book.
This is all the things I can think of at the moment. Being respectful and having a good sense of humor about things is always a must.
I found this entire post highly arousing. Especially after the "short, slutty clothing" post.Made me want to be in the frame. Pleasing you, however you wanted.
