Sex related:
Detailed kissing, oral fixation, exhibitionism/voyeurism, DIRTY TALK, masturbation, rimming, sibling incest, secret sexy underwear, sex in public places, loud sex, voice/scent kink, sex outside of the bedroom, sex toys, mutual masturbation, role play, nipple play, multiple orgasms, self-fucking with toys, edging (delayed gratification, drawing it out), being held down, possessiveness and jealousy, frottage, topping from the bottom, shower or bath sex, oral sex of all kinds, exhibitionism, first times, make-up sex, anal sex, dubcon of the made-them-do-it/sex pollen variety, a/b/o, knotting, biting and marking, barebacking, light bondage, blindfolds, D/s dynamics, blowjobs and face-fucking, rough/angry sex, sleep sex, somnophilia, partially clothed sex, power dynamics, I almost always prefer the character in the pairing that is a bit more evil/morally grey/less innocent to be the one who tops or who has a toppier energy
I'm Not a Fan Of:
