This comment was by Ted Elliott in reference to the post – Know Your Partner’s Sexual Response Profile for Great Sex
I think the best thing a couple can do is TELL each other what works for them and what does not, in essence, coaching them to optimize their sexual fulfillment. The point you have reached where you are more into giving than receiving is only possible if you have both explored what works for you and have TOLD this to your partner. What percentage of couples actually coach the other in the relationship this way, I’ll bet we are talking single digits here. What percentage of women have coached their partners on g-spot stimulation, again, likely single digit here as well.
On a completely different tack, do men with partial impotency (as often happens post prostate surgery/therapy) more closely match the sexual response of most women (ie. it takes more work to reach a giving/receptive state)? Have you had any males discuss this with you? Is this advantageous for the couple, likely not because women’s expectation is we men are ready to go when they say so, correct?
