    I wouldn't buy the book. I'd definitely do her, though. :lol:

    Doing her is more effort than she's worth. She could give me a blowjob if she wants.

    :lol: Everyone knows hot girls suck in bed. When guys hound after you, you don't have to be. Most of the guys that saw the Hilton sex tape were not impressed, to say the least. ;)

    Kim's ass is cartoonish and disgusting IMO. Would not hit it, unless she could swap asses with her sister Kourtney.
    Then I would break her bed - from getting pushed violently through her bedroom wall in the first five seconds of our sexy time.

    Yeah, I'm only aware of these people because my daughters used to watch the show (:facepalm:), but I would do unspeakable things to Kourtney. :drool:

    I saw how she was in bed with Ray J, just laying there passionless. No thanks. :marathon:

    Buying her selfie book would be a sure mark of shame for anyone. If she wants to sell media, she should start doing porn.

    I'm not entirely certain how to respond to this, but I feel I must. If you are "performing" in bed to please your partner in the hopes that he continues to come to your bed because you think you aren't attractive enough for him to come otherwise, then you're doing it wrong. I mean, certainly there are things you do specifically to please him, but if you are only 'acting' out those things, rather than 'feeling' those things ..., you're missing out. Sex should be as much for your enjoyment as it is for his.

    The shit also applies for hot guys, too. I remember @MiniBorg talking about a rugby player who was hot but failed spectacularly in bed that she screwed him again just to be sure. :lol:

    I'm still failing to see the connection between looks and sexual ... ability. I wouldn't look to porn to judge looks vs good sex. Perhaps the rugby player was not all that into miniborg - nothing against miniborg. Maybe the rugby player walked away with the same thoughts about miniborg - that someone who looked like her should be better in bed.

    What makes great sex is not what the other person looks like, it's about how you feel about the other person.

    The point is, very attractive people get away with being decorative. All their lives they've been judged foremost on their looks, so they consider looks to be their primary asset. In most situations, they don't have to do anything; they just have to be, and people of the opposite (and often same) sex fall all over themselves paying attention to them. An attitude of "Yes, everybody wants me" makes for a certain passivity in bed.

    You've never observed this? Think of the most attractive people in your high school. You never observed them being fawned over for their looks?

    I've had sex with really great looking guys and I've had sex with not so great looking guys. I've had sex with guys I really really like (even loved) and I've had sex with guys I felt little for. In all cases, the pleasurableness of the the act was in direct correlation to what I felt for him and he for me. Never, in any case, was attractiveness the factor.

    However, to the point of attractiveness in getting things easier in society, yes, I agree on that point.

    The only thing I questioned was how pleasurability in sex came into play. That is what I'm not understanding.

    It's part of the larger picture of "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful." As a general rule, people who are attractive don't have to work as hard at being desirable as people who are not. Therefore the temptation - not a universal applicable to every attractive person on the planet - will be, as Anna said, to rely on the other person's thinking "Wow, aren't they lucky to be having sex with someone as hot as me?" and not try as hard to satisfy the other person.

    Or, as one of his many partners once said about a certain Hollywood Adonis, "Warren doesn't have to work at sex, because he's essentially having sex with himself. He just wanted me there to applaud afterwards."

    I suppose the answer to that statement, then, is, if the only reason you're having sex with that person is because of their looks, then you deserve bad sex.

    Oh, you betcha. Carly Simon's always denied it, but it's pretty obvious. The quote is from someone else, though. ;)

    I'm on the very inexperienced side, and I may just be average when it comes to my looks (among other things that are average), but my priority is to my partner. I want that person to feel wanted and desired, like they are the most important person in the bedroom, or on top of the restaurant salad bar. Why the hell have sex if you're not going to make it fun and engaging for everyone involved? Oh, and yeah, a strong emotional connection is more likely to get me going, rather than just appearances. "Beautiful people" are a dime a dozen, but show me someone who is smart, funny, warm, and kind, and by fuck I'm ready to roll. Get that person to laugh at my Spaceballs jokes, and I might just propose on the spot.
