I used to talk about sex ALL the time, probably because I actually got very little or because the little I did get was limited to one night stands or bootie calls. I reflect on this time (my twenties & if I'm honest early thirties) and I think I talked about it and turned my sexcapades in tales of adventure and hilarity in order to hide the feelings of worthlessness and being used that I really felt, the ones that hit faster than you put your knickers back on!
That post-orgasm glow disappeared with the smoke if the post-coital cigarette and I turned it into something to be laughed at, to be shrieked and humour was to become my shield.
I don't talk about sex so much now. I can't help but wonder why. Even when my friends bring it up, I turn all prudish and don't feel the need to discuss, have I moved to a different stage of life? That stage where I don't feel the need to broadcast the details to anyone who will listen. Is it because I have a man who loves me for me, that doesn't only want me just to scratch that itch? Or have I just become boring?
How has the way you talk about sex changed as you get older or your relationships change?

I find since getting engaged and then married I shy away from the conversations because people meet, have dinner with, hang out with my Hubby. I can't help but think it would be awkward! Haha.
Either that or I'm boring. ;)
