Um... gee. I'm not allowed to write about my own sex life, I'm not allowed to write about my own sex life, I'm not allowed to write about my own sex life...
But maybe I can get away with saying this: My boyfriend was Mr. Vanilla Monogamy Man when we met, and pretty much was that way for four years later. Now I'm proud to say that he's a whole lot kinkier and more adventurous than even I am.
Here's the trick: some people's kinks are distinct, specific, and fully formed by the time they start having orgasms. Some people grow into kinks that appeal to indistinct and perhaps fuzzier and vague turn-ons.
THIS IS NOT AN EXAMPLE FROM MY LIFE: When my friend Phil—hey there, Phil—was in his 20s, he was vanilla. His only kink was wrestling around a bit. Just sexy, playful tussling. Now the dude has a full-blown wrestling fetish—singlets, headgear, refs and matches—and he's totally hardcore about it. He likes to say that 30-something Phil would appall and terrify 20-something Phil and, having known both Phils, I'd say he's right.
So... what turns your vanilla girlfriend on? Are there seeds-of-kinks in there somewhere?
