TMI posts

(or, apparently TLI posts, which i -love- as a concept, thanks lennongirl!

I'm sorry. It's just that us Old Married People aren't even supposed to be -having- sex, let alone really good sex. And I suppose I'm a bit embarrassed that it's new for me, since it's not that wacky.

Or maybe it is and I've just been reading too much smut. ;)

But honestly, sometimes I would answer, and definitely over-share, or sometimes I have questions that I want to ask but I just don't know how to do so without ... without icking people out.

I mean, no one wants the details about what I've done in bed. But how am I supposed to write about something (or even try it out) if I can't get my questions answered? I wish there was a way to do this without locking people out, AND without TMI-ing people.

Any suggestions?

I'm mostly ok with over-sharing about myself, since I have that annoying compulsion to answer sex-questions honestly, but there are a few people here who know me IRL and I wouldn't want them to feel weird (or feel weird myself)... But I would love some answers... And the internet is helpful to a point, but not always the details I want to know...

Hmm... Thoughts?

Maybe I should set up a fully anon ask/answer lj or even just a message/reply for one entry... But then I'm not the one with the answers...

Hmmm...

Stupid residual Catholic upbringing and stupid unhelpful shame and embarrassment and stupid Libraian waffling and over-thinking.

How am I supposed to learn more about sex at my age?

Feh.

Well, if you want, you can ask me anything you'd like and I'll give you an honest and informative answer. Through LJ or any of the chat services

First, you're welcome. Then, I'd love to know more;)
And, just ask. maybe you'd rather use locks/filters so you or people who might answer would feel more comfortable.

Filters it is! Thank you!

I promise an answer coming forthwith. (Of course, now you'll be really disappointed at how mundane it probably is. ;)

Hmmmm...I'll judge for myself;)

I'd filter and maybe put the actual question inside a cut with "Sex Questions!  Beware!" or something like that as the cut text, but I'll share whatever I know any time you like.  I'm beyond embarrassment about that sort of stuff these days.  ;-)

Filters it is! Thank you for the encouragement!

No problem, dear.  Always glad to help when I can.  :-)
