Re: Poll: Sex during AF

  • I do occasionally, but I usually leave the decision up to my husband's mood.  If it happens, 99.9% of the time we do it in the shower just to avoid cleanup.  He enjoys it, I am usually less sensitive than normal, but still have a good time.

  • We'll usually only do oral. I give to him and if my flow isn't too heavy and wear a tampon then he'll do me (sorry probably TMI!). We've never had intercourse while on my period, it kinda weirds me out.

    I am side-eyeing this.  You let him put his face down there but you won't let him put is d!ck in there????   

  • i put other. it doesn't freak us out, it's kind of gross to us getting blood everywhere even if there's a towel down. DH wont doit and i dont blame him. i give him oral, or we doit in the bootay!
  • DH is not going for it and neither am I no matter how horny I am. I look at them 5days as my personal time.
  • Fi and I are fine with it.  We do intercourse and oral (yes for me, not just him).  It gets messy and we don't care.  I side-eye the "eeeeew, gross" folks and the "bj/butt sex week" people. 
  • I chose other. We only do it in the shower.

    SORRY HAVE TO FINISH THAT ( SON HIT KEYBOARD W FOOT)

    would not expect him to give me oral sex.

  • My DH would have sex any time. On my really heavy days, I just worry that we'll get blood on the sheets, so that's a bit distracting. But as long as I'm not bleeding too heavily it's all good.

    Ditto.

    And oral is even less "gross" with a Diva cup or something other than a tampon anyway, for those whom the tampon is not enough.

    Why not?

    So am I to understand that your H won't "doit" because there may be blood, so an acceptable substitution for him is to put it up your butt, where there may be crap?  Hmmmmm.

    Edited to fix typo.

  • I can't believe some guys would choose POOP over blood. Blech.

    LOL!

  • we def do, but again it all depends on the day as long as my flow is not too heavy...
  • Nope...My H refuses!

    Which is fine... One week out of the month isn't a big deal. 

  • Not his thing, not mine.

  • It bugs me more than my husband.  I think my pheromones must be weird because it seems like we have more sex when I have my period.

    This.  We use the shower or an old towel.  Why wait a whole week?

  • It's so pretty light so neither of us usually cares, I just won't let him give oral (just like to be completely clean when his face is in my vagina).  And if it is heavier then we'll just use a condom to slim down on the mess. I love it though I'm more sensitive during my period.
  • First day my cramps are way too bad!  But after that we do.  Just put down a towel or in the shower.

    Same here.  When it doesn't hurt, I'm game.

  • We wait ... We are BOTH grossed out by it, and would rather wait until its over.

    Yes exactly

  • It just depends how heavy it is and how I feel since I get really bad pains.  We definitely do at the very end for sure though.

  • Complete disinterest accompanies aunt flow so it's a no go.
