I'm glad you started this thread, Earl, I've been hoping someone could explain the link between the waterbed and the "sex machine" reputation that got associated with anyone who had them. I've had sex on a waterbed. It didn't rock my boat.
I've always wondered about the sex conducive quality of a waterbed myself, never having experienced sex on one. I'd imagine that the frequency of the waves take on a life of their own and interfere with the task a hand.
Anyone out there who likes having sex on a waterbed that can shed some light here?
I like a low bed. One that the sex can spill out around onto the carpeted floor and along the edges. Firm beds are better than soft as you can stand on them easier. Firm pillows are also good as you can prop the bottom up making it easier to piston or straddle it as needed. Duvets work better for sex as you can pull them completely off the bed if you need to and grab it when you are cuddling. I like having sex on flannel sheets when it is cold outside. The bed's gotta feel cosy so I like a queen size bed better than king. A fire place in the bedroom is great for warmth, candles will do also. I like that flickering light and the pleasing golden color of the flame against a person's skin - very flattering. Mirrors always seem cheesy to me and too obvious when people come to visit. Music is not necessary when there are lots of gasps, moans and soft whispers.
