You're so right, and so sensible, and have worded that all so well!

Thanks very much! *blushes* I'm glad you think so. This post is mostly the result of a lot of mistakes I made in a previous relationship, which I definitely would not make again, even at the risk of thoroughly embarrassing myself by trying to talk about sex. Then again, I was a lot younger and generally more inexperienced and insecure, so it might not be as much of an issue now.

It's great seeing young women like you realising that they have the power to make those sorts of decisions, and the communication skills, too. And in my experience, most men like to be told and don't take it in any way poorly unless, as you warn against, the communicating is done in a way that is mean or manipulative.

*applauds again*

Well, I very much doubt that I would ever be in a position where I'd need to tell a man what I wanted, but I will definitely keep that in mind ;)

Having to tell a woman is a little bit different, especially if you both have all those years of heteronormative passivity training to overcome. Alpha females ftw! :D

Very well said. I couldn't agree more. I'm glad I could spark such impassioned words in you.

Thanks! I'm glad you could, too. I haven't written anything like that in a while. It's good to stretch one's serious writing muscles every now and then.
