May I ask in what country you grew up ?
I was raised in a very liberal environment in Vienna Europe , speak up about the weather the same way as I speak about sex . I don't understand what's the point ? "Enjoy life as you wish " is it , right ? I personally love to have secrets and my life, including sexual preference is nobody's business. Privacy is sexy !
I grew up in southern California in the US under a religious, conservative family. It's rare to hear people talking about sex in a healthy, open way, but I also recognize much of that perception may be just my own experience. It's actually encouraging to hear how people in Europe are not hung up by these things and, as you said, there is also some sexiness to private intimacy. Thanks for your comment. :)
