Big "D", I was just reading an article the other day that talked about this exact subject. Men and their sexuality. I like many others in the article,(coming from a woman's point of view, please keep that in mind,) just assumed that by the time you boys reached about 25 or so most of your fears and or concerns about whether or not you are good in bed would have gone away, especially if you are in a serious relationship. But the article in fact stated pretty much the opposite, stating that men never outgrow the questions and or fears about themselves in bed. I found this very interesting from a psych standpoint.
There are many many levels to sex, and twice as many things that factor into sex as well, not to mention age, libido, physical stature, and the list goes on and on. It's been said many times that for both sexes, sex starts in the brain, and that is a fact.
I have always said my entire life that I absolutely suck in bed. I am not a good kisser, I have no idea what I am doing, heck, I didn't even know I had a clit until I was almost 20, and had my first big "O" shortly after, by my own doing. But I never knew what I was doing? And I went through most of my life this way.
Now, on the other side of the coin here, my partner Doc I think he had always considered himself a thoughtful lover, making sure his women was always pleased first, but from what I gather from the things he said when we met, he was 48, he didn't think he was good in bed either.
When we got together, Doc and I, I will be honest here and tell you that yes, we did in fact have sex on our first date. A first for both of us. But that night and every night, day, morning or afternoon since, and it's been 4 and a half years now our sex just keeps getting better and better and better, not to mention kinkier and kinkier. But, even when we just make love and have plain vanilla sex, it's still over the top fantastic.
We were both so nervous that first time, but quickly that subsided and things just quickly fell into place. When all was said and done, we were talking about it and about how amazing it was and both of us were talking about things we did that night that neither of us had ever done before, or even dreamt of doing before. For both of us, to date, that was the best sex we had ever had.
Admitingly, we are both still married to others, him 30 years, me 20, but sex with each other is do over the top different. We both in the past 4.5 years have had sex with our spouses one time, and we both commented on how different that was too. It was like we had forgotten what and how we have sex when we are together, so not trying to be mean, but when we had sex with our spouses, it was boring, the same, it wasn't enjoyable at all, and no matter how much we tried to bring in some of the spark and some of what we had learned having sex together it just wasn't happening. That's when we realized that we were again back to basically sucking in bed.
It was when we got back together the next with with each other, and had sex again, the same over the top fantastic sex we have always had with each other we both realized that neither of us suck in bed, actually, we totally rock the house,(much to our neighbors in the hotel rooms next to ours jealously and or disgust, or maybe even amusement), but only with each other. We bring out desires, lusts, animalistic tendencies, primal needs and actions and what not that we either don't bring out in other partners, or those other partners don't bring out in us.
I have said in many previous posts that most people of the opposite sex can find a partner to have sex with, and some of those people will find a partner that fits with them okay, or even better than okay, but once in a while you might be very very lucky to find a partner that fits perfectly in every way, mentally, emotionally, physically and anatomically, and when you find one with all 4 components, then you throw in the fact that you are physically attracted to them, and that you really are in love with them, then the question of whether or not you are good in bed isn't a question you will have to ask yourself ever again.
Before I met him I would have never ever wanted to take control in bed, tied him up, put a hood on him, gotten on top of him, called him my bitch for the night and rode him hard over and over. And never in his life has he had any desire to command a woman to orally please him, or just walk into a room and demand she drop her pants for him and then he come over and just take her either, and the list of things like that could go on for volumes. Now if my husband ever tried either of those things to me, while I have never actually hit a person outside of a karate ring, I would deck his ass so fast he wouldn't see it coming. And likewise, if Doc ever tried that on his wife probably the same would occur.
So both of us have stopped wondering if we suck in bed when we are together. We both know that we absolutely do not suck in bed, we both would like to think that we are masters of craftsman in bed......when we are with each other......., but on the off chance we ever have to to and have sex with the spouse again, then and only then will a question of that nature come up again.
So, long story short here, I don't think anyone really sucks in bed, they may just suck in bed because of the partner with whom they are with at the moment. It's rally amazing and still flabbergasts me to this day what the right partner for you can make such a huge difference in either or both partners performance in the bedroom.
Just my 2 cents worth on this Monday morning.
