  • Yes, having a rubber on you is good preparation. Some people think it's presumptuous, but better safe than sorry. Also, there are those who think it spoils the mood to ask for or give verbal consent, but I'm certainly not one of them.

    There's something beautiful to me about someone asking for permission, not just in sex, but anything really. I love good manners. I wish more people would freely communicate their feelings and intentions. Sure we all risk being turned down, but I'd rather be rejected or reject someone than just go along with a presumption. I feel deliberate action even if unsuccessful is courageous and shows vulnerability.

    • I tend to want the other person to make the first move and I do prefer it to be non-verbal to be honest.
      But I see where you are coming from too, it's far too common these days with people who just throw themselves at you without caring the slightest about getting any sort of consent/permission.

      • RoseIsabella you are contradicting yourself here, are you in or out?

        There certainly is nothing that beats good manners in life but some things are better left unspoken.

        I mean to ask, "Madam do you mind if we now copulate (have consensual sex)?" is a bit of a turn off for any normal human being is it not?
