I have a friend (NOT ME for the record, I'm old fashion like that, I'm saving myself for marage. so go ahead and laugh @ the chao BUT I'M NOT WAKING UP WITH AN STD OR A KNOCKED UP WOMAN NEXT TO ME WHICH MAY HAVE MY KID!) who told me she has a "sex friend" I myself would PROBALY go as far as oraly pleasuring my partner, and no further untill we were wed.

But what do you think of this whole "sex friend" thing? I would LOVE to hear the input of those who have them, and what they would do if there partner would have a problem with them having a sex friend.

As for me, the whole STD thing has me kinda scared.

There's a difference between having sex with everybody you meet and having sex with a close friend that you trust.  As long as you're not stupid, STDs are a non-issue.

Actually, funny you mention it... (Keep this in mind this is a one-time post for me) The same thing happened the other day with a close friend of mine whom i've known for well over 4 years... i told him that I actually had the hots for him for awhile and wanted to experiment with another guy.

(continued post, sorry bout this)

Needless to say I was drinking down his cum after that and 'teasing' him for the rest of the night. At the time, yes I did have a girlfriend... (She dumped me the day after for diff reasons) But, depending upon if the 'friend with benefits' had no bad shit like STD's and you trusted them.. maybe even getting your partner's consent... I'm game for it.

I've had a friend with benefits.  It's a lot of fun and i don't see anything wrong with it other than it WILL end your friendship.  I knew her for a long time and once we got tired of fucking each other i never saw her again, luckily i preferred the sex to the friendship so i didn't lose anything really.

If you can't have sex with your friends, who's left?  Strangers you just met but want to date in case you might actually get to like them?  :P

>>1 Paranoia is only a good thing if what you're paranoid about is closing in on you.

IMO, the point of life isn't to stay as pure and virtuous as you can. The point of life is to get out there and see and do and experience as much as you can in the short allotment of life you are given. Including sleeping with your friends if you can swing it. ;)

Since you brought it up, I'm going to turn the tables... If STDs weren't a factor, would you give it away?

I think it is very honourable for you to wait, and I'm sure that the person you marry will be flattered that you were actually willing to wait for them.

I personally do not understand the idea of "sex friends." I think it's silly. For me, love has to be directly involved, a very deep kind that simple "friends" could never emulate. By the way you speak, I'd wager it's the same for you.

I think the reason it works for some people is because a) They have sex only to feel good and nothing else, and b) It's more often than not physically safer with a friend, if you know they're trustworthy. What doesn't seem to be taken into account is that people lie, whether they are friends or not. So you're never 100% safe. Ever.

Could be for the purpose of gratifying yourself by humiliating someone that is close to you. And even there, it's only sex. STDs = myth that was invented to scare people from having sex. Blame the conservatives for that.

Sex just isn't a serious thing.

>>13 For the impressionable minds reading this right now, I'd just like to point out that regardless of post 13's rather bold declaration, STDs are real and we only have cures for two of them so far...

... But this is why the condom was invented! So if you're going to have casual sex, make sure there's some medical latex involved.

>>10 It can be special with a friend. Sex is only as special as you choose it to be.

Oh, I should add, if you think waiting will make your first time better, it won't. Like any physical activity, you're going to suck ass at it the first time you try it.

Kind of like the first time I ever played golf. I got a 14 on a par 5 hole. Very sad. Lots of mistakes. And just like golf, sex is about more than putting something in a hole.

I've had sex or at least sexual relations with a few of my best female friends, and it never became a troublesome issue.  They were all Air Force girls, though, so I don't really know how it would work out in the real world.  As long as the participants are both in it just for fun, it will probably be alright.

As for STDs, there's no reason to be afraid of them.  Remember to carry a condom and a little common sense, and sex is safer than driving on the interstate.

Now, this is just my personal opinion, but the whole "saving yourself" notion is complete bunk.  Nobody's virgin experience is a particularly good one for the virgin or their partner.  Furthermore, every girl likes doing things a different way, so if you get some experience you will gain a broader knowledge of how to please a woman.  You'd be doing your future one-and-only a favor by breaking yourself in earlier.  Now I could get onto the topic of monogamy here, but I think I'll save that for a future rant.

I have an std, it's not a huge deal.  I was intentionally infected by one of the few monogamous relationships i've had (as opposed to one night stand i mean, i'm always monagamous).  So don't think that anything will keep you completely immune from stds even marriage (unless she saved herself too).  Not much is different just every 6 months or so i gotta go 2 weeks without sex.  Plus girls really admire you when you tell them about it BEFORE you sleep with them, never been turned down in that regard.  I've been around the block and had a lot of fun/sex i wouldn't trade it to be clean at all.  Even condoms don't protect against all stds

The only thing that comes to mind is crabs, but that's not a disease so much as an infeststion. ;)

This kind of logic only works when both people are only being selfish and wanting to get off for their own enjoyment. If you have sex because you're in love (which, by the way, is why people get married in the first place), it doesn't matter how "flawless" the activity is the first time or any time.

Besides, believe me.. there is something called "too much of a 'good thing.'" Some people can't handle the kind of intensity you describe. Everyone is different, so leave the guy alone and let him make his own decisions. He wasn't asking to be persuaded to change his own views, he was asking other people why they do what they do.

>>24 With all due respect, Raven, I don't know about persuading him to change his mind, but part of understanding why some people don't save it is understanding that many of us consider the reasons to save their viginity to be BS.

Maybe that's the answer right there. Dear >>1 , the reason I didn't save myself is the reasons I've heard to save myself all looked like BS to me. In the end, it's up to each of us to make her or his own choices, so go with what you feel is right, and in the end, you will be.

I was making a point. Many reasons may be BS, but I think people should be honest about why they make a decision. Making up false reasoning with faulty logic just doesn't cut it. It's also skirting around the issue of responsibility. Then again, people often lie to themselves as often as they do to other people.

But don't listen to me. My words are merely ramblings of an old man with backward opinions from a time long past, when a person's character mattered much more than what they could get away with.

god damn, i swear some of you just like to hear yourselves talk (or.. type).

saving yourself for marriage is retarded IMO. dont go around fucking any random person, but you should be able to trust who youre fucking enough for them to tell you if they have any fucking stds.

long story short, fuck buddies are the best. think about it. its a hot friend who you can fucked/be fucked by whenever you want, but not have to worry about relationship bullshit.

...If you have sex because you're in love (which, by the way, is why people get married in the first place)...


That's a bit naive/idealistic, for a self-professed 'old man'... Folks get married for a lot of reasons, which is good, because divorce statistics would paint a sad picture of the ideal of 'love' if it was indeed the only/main reason folks marry. 

And divorce statistics (and the picture of ideal love, as well, if you think about it long enough) are pretty sad and depressing already, without loading them with that kinda burden as well.

Question for >>1 :  Are you a member of a straight edge group at all, or one of those abstinence/sexual responsibity groups?  If not, and you're serioues about this kinda thing, you might want to see what kind of groups are out there in your area and consider joining or at least talking to them.  You'll need the advice and support of a good peer group eventually, I'd reckon, especially if you're not through college yet - All my better friends went astray in college.  They turned out okay, but at least one or two of them have major regrets about not following through on their convictions.  :P

Good luck.

>>22  Herpes?  That's a bitch.  You don't even need to have sex to get that, either.  It's catchy like pink-eye.

>>24  "This kind of logic only works when both people are only being selfish and wanting to get off for their own enjoyment."

Yes, it's recreational sex.  I would hardly call it selfish, though.  It's mutually beneficial, and if a partner doesn't feel like giving then you don't have to go back.  Personally, I can't imagine why anyone wouldn't want to give.  If you don't it's as boring as masturbation.

>>27  Dude, that show kicks ass.

>>30  It amazes me that people who frequent a website featuring furry porno can be offended by naughty words.

>>31  Good.  If you want to pursue abstinence, do it for yourself.  You don't need peer-pressure, religion, or religious peer-pressure to steer you down the path.

Just some general comments in response to this.

At times people may harbor romantic thoughts that sex should be special, or mean something.  I can understand this, and it is a good thing at times, but there is no way that every sexual experience one has is going to have that emotional intensity, or mean anything other than a raw expression of desire.  Sometimes you just gotta do it because you are horny.

Furthermore, abstaining completely until you find the right one is not worth it, and can even lead you to make an incorrect decision about the right one due to one's pent-up sexual frustrations/desperations.  That is, unless you are inherently the masochistic type and deride pleasure from denying yourself.  If that is so, say so, and don't hide behind moralism or piety.

Friends with benefits are a good thing.  As long as you are honest with each other, have respect for each other, and can put sexual possessiveness aside in the interest of mutual pleasure, there is nothing wrong with it.  It is difficult, because the natural tendency is to grow more possessive and attached.  It is worth it if the sex is good in my opinion, but know that it comes with a price of having to keep yourself in check emotionally constantly.

STDs, pregnancy, etc. can be dealt with.  You should trust someone enough to know whether they are telling the truth about their STDs before you do anything with them, anyway.  ANYONE that is, whether friend, potential mate, etc.  Get protection for the pregnancy.

The implicit or explicit aura of superiority because one is "saving themselves" or "have character" is abhorrent.  I hate abstinence.  You won't be alive for the majority of time this universe is in existence.  You'll have plenty of time for abstinence when you're dead.

Good for you.  I share similar sentiments (and I've saved myself, too, and not for lack of opportunities).

Now, STDs aside, what do the rest of you do if your "sex friend" finds herself to be pregnant?  (And I do so abhor abortion, because I believe life begins at conception.  I'm not looking to start a debate on the subject or try to convince any of you; that's just my belief so you know where I'm coming from.)

I never said I was an old man. I said that's where my words come from. Read carefully.

As for marriage, I still have to disagree with you. Nowadays, people mostly get married because of love. We aren't living in the Victorian erra anymore. But ideal love? Perfect love? That's living in a fantasy world. Some people can achieve this, but they have to make their mind up about it. The reason the divoce rate is high is because people have no intention of sticking with someone through the trouble spots. To the majority of people, love is transitory. That doesn't mean they get married for other reasons, it just means they decide to stop loving when things turn sour.

For eveyone else with the pregnancy thing:

I get the impression that you do not understand how a woman's body works in conjunction with birth control. No form of birth control is 100% effective. No matter what precautions you take, there is always a chance that it won't work. Many of them have a time when they are completely ineffective, too. Condoms might be something you can use all the time, but if not used properly or if an accident occurs (read: KABOOM), you're pretty much screwed (figuratively and literally).

Keep in mind, I am not saying you should or should not stay a virgin. Lord knows I didn't. But like I said, if you're not going to, at least take some responsibility for your decisions, be honest to yourself about it, and be aware of the possible consequences. Because no matter how safe you are, you are never completely safe.
