Hi all, I just created this group so we could have a safe space sex discussion and advice group similar to the /r/sex subreddit.

I figured I could get the ball rolling with this post.

How do you feel about discussing your private sex life with your friends or coworkers? Personally if a friend brings something up I will usually answer without going into too many details. I don’t really say anything that I wouldn’t say in front of my partner, but don’t mind healthy discussion or the occasional joke. I do have friends that overshare, and friends that won’t discuss their sex lives at all. I know I wouldn’t mind if my wife shared some general details but I would be extremely uncomfortable if she shared any intimate details or preferences in the bedroom. Oddly, myself and my wife both find sharing anonymous details on the internet perfectly fine.

How does the community feel about this topic?

    I’ve discussed this with my wife before. Basically, neither of us share anything with other people beyond what is obvious (i.e. of course we’ve had sex). If someone asked me questions, I’d probably be vague depending on the relationship. I’m probably more open to discuss things than my wife would be. I probably won’t share specifics unless it’s with a doctor. The most I know that she’s shared was that she told one person to try giving ears attention when making out. If she does share anything, I’d like to know a bit of context but I wouldn’t be mad.

    I’ve not really had people overshare with me.
