    Do You Moan?

    I would tend to agree with WildChild on that one. I know I am very excited when my wife makes sounds during sex. To me, it shows that she is into it, and that totally enhances to experience for me...I imagine for her too. I can probably see how I may get the same feedback if I could tell that a woman was working really hard to keep it in and under control. Calm, cool, and collected, however, is not a big turn on. There are some places for poise...the bedroom during sex is not one of them.

    I completely agree with WildChild...I know that my experience is very much enhanced when a woman makes sounds of pleasure during sex. They don't need to be crazy, porn star climax screams of obscenities or other exclamations that I should [blank] her [blank] with my [blank], but having that feedback makes me enjoy it much more because of the input that she is enjoying it too. I would imagine that seeing her work very hard to keep it in and under control (e.g. biting the pillow) would be a turn on too, but calm, cool, and collected during sex is not a turn on. There are some places for poise, and the bedroom during sex is not one of them.

        Do You Moan?

        So I've searched around a bit and can't find a thread like this one. If htere already is one, I apologize.

        Do you moan while having sex?

        I do sometimes. At first, I was used to having to keep quiet because of parents nearby. Now, I live in an apartment building so I have neighbors. Sometimes I bite the pillow. Other times I really don't care because I'm so caught up. I know the guy above me can't care because his bed is constantly banging against my ceiling.

          I used to be almost completely silent, too scared to make much more than a sigh. But while my husband and I were still dating he had a room mate that had a straight up screamer girlfriend, at 3 and 4 in the morning. I guess I let loose out of anger just to get them back once and found things about 100X more enjoyable when I didn't hold back.... but I am a pillow biter too. Especially since we have a kid now.

            My fiance loves when I bite the pillow and hold back. Wonder why? Might need to saunter on over to the Ask Men thread.

              For both the person moaning and the SO hearing the moaning.

              As a male I don't moan, but I sometimes groan. Is that common amongst males?
