What Turns You On?
When you want to notch up your bedroom attire, you're likely to wear:
A shimmery midnight blue satin slip with skinny straps
A long, lace-trimmed antique gown you got at a vintage-clothing store
A soft white Hanro undershirt and brief
A gauzy baby-doll nightie
One of his dress shirts, unbuttoned to your navel
A black silk kimono tied loose on the hip
When you spend time with your best friend, you:
Check out the new lip colors at the M.A.C. counter, then go spend a small fortune at Victoria's Secret
Hang out at that great Italian place with the outdoor terrace and talk over risotto and a bottle of wine
Browse in antique stores, then duck into a little place for tea and pastries
Take a long hike in the woods and have a picnic of bread and cheese by a pond
Go see that new indie movie everyone’s so shocked by, then yak it up at a bar and flirt with the bartender
Hit a spinning class, then treat yourselves to an afternoon of pampering at the local day spa
Your ideal evening alone would be spent:
Blasting some old Madonna tunes at top volume and dancing around the house in a T-shirt and panties
Trying out new ways to do your hair and borrowing one of your kid's temporary tattoos and putting it in a strategic spot.
Lounging with a cup of herbal tea in your softest sweats, painting your toenails, listening to Sarah McLachlan, and thinking about nothing
Looking through the pictures of your wedding and honeymoon, then climbing into bed with a romance novel
Gardening outside until sundown, then hosing off and eating popcorn in bed
Talking on the phone with your girlfriend and gossiping about everyone you know
You know you're a goner when your husband:
Peeks down your shirt to see what color bra you've got on today
Presses against you from behind while you're doing the dishes
Leans over in the middle of dinner and runs his tongue over your lips
Reaches under your shirt as you’re watching TV and starts to lightly stroke your back
Holds your face in his hands and looks deep into your eyes
Pulls your legs up on the couch and gives you a long foot massage
Twenty minutes after making love, you are:
Draped over his back, reveling in the smell of his body
Making him tell you a secret he's never revealed
Sharing a bowl of ice cream in bed and kissing it off each other's lips
Wondering whether you’ve got enough energy to do it again
Whispering sweet nothings in his ear and playing with the hair that's fallen over his forehead
Fast asleep, snuggled up in his arms
During foreplay, if your husband isn't touching you quite the way you like, you:
Let it be -- after all, sex isn't a science
Tell him exactly what you need
Take his hand and show him
Move on to something else or another position
Do it yourself
Do to him what it is you want done
The most intense orgasms you have with your husband are when:
You feel you're doing something naughty
You both climax at the same time
You let him pleasure you without anything in return
He has every single one of your tender spots covered
He whispers, "I love you."
You're tuned into each other completely
If you were to experiment, you'd:
Try anal sex
Tell each other your sex fantasies
Bring a vibrator to bed
Act out each other's fantasies
Paint each other in chocolate sauce and whipped cream and lick it off
Ask him to blindfold you with a silk scarf
The one sexual thing you'd probably never do is:
Engage in steamy phone sex
Wear fishnets and heels to bed
Fake an orgasm
Lick honey and whipped cream for hours from any body part
Do the same thing more than twice in a row
A quickie with your clothes on
One of the most thrilling lovemaking sessions you ever had was:
When you fantasized about doing it on a baseball field with a crowd cheering you on
That five-minute quickie in the bathroom at your best friend's wedding
The time he blindfolded you and took his sweet time with your pleasure
When you both played hooky and spent the day in bed
During the honeymoon, because it was so once-in-a-lifetime
When you were trying to get pregnant -- no worries, no inhibitions
