first of all, i dont even talk detailed sex with my girlfriends.
second of all, i think it would be inappropriate to talk about it with another guy. i would be fuming if my husband was talking about our private sex life to anyone, nonetheless a girl friend of his. so i wouldnt do that to him.

I live near Davies street (a very flamboyant part of Vancouver BC) and you see tons of guy girl BFFs This I think is a very safe option for those who want to know a mans point of view.
A gay friend of ours joined a bachelorette party and had some very helpful and fun tips for bedroom time with our man mates.

Any girl with a 'straight' male best friend is walking on thin ice! Just watch the movie, My Best friends Wedding.

I love talking sex with both male and female friends--gay or straight. I don't know what could possibly be inappropriate about it... we're all sexual beings. We share feelings, likes, dislikes, etc. with our friends when we're talking about non-sexual things, so why be all Victorian about sex? It's not dirty or immoral, it's just sex.

I too love to talk about sex with guys. I actually find it more awkward to talk to girls about them. I don't name names or mention specific situation... Just techniques and ideas in general. I have never shared intimate details of a significant others with a friend. That's why I feel so bottled up sometimes. Most of the sex talk is general and non-serious chats.

queenlizzie-- i agree with u that its not dirty nor immoral...but im of the opposing view when it comes to discussing sex with everyone and anyone. i believe sex is sacred and private. this doesnt mean im judging other opinions, but when it comes to my husband and i and our sex life...it is between me and him. period.

I don't think there's anything wrong with it. Maybe a guy can give me advice on something the hubby might like.

kuristal I also live in Vancouver..in Kits acutally..small world!

Hm...I don't think there is anything wrong with it, as long as you are ok with your man doing the same with his gfs. And I am not sure i am ok with that...

I reserve sex talk with my gfs and gay guy friends..

Anonymously online chatting but in person, no, I don't get that close to males as friends. They always end up wanting to hook up. So no. And that's totally inappropriate with a co-worker period male or female unless you like potential gossiping about you on your job.

I only have a couple girlfriends; the rest of my friends are guys. I don't have any problems talking to my guy friends about sex when it comes up, nor do I have a problem with my fiance sharing with his female friends. Maybe that's just us; "different strokes for different folks," as the adage goes. I could understand why it would be a "no" if you were degrading or totally trash-talking your sex life, but it's just not a big deal to me.

I'll go into details about myself only if I want to or have had sex with the guy.

I don't share information about sex with another person. It happens behind closed doors for a reason. I don't even feel comfortable discussing details with a girlfriend when she is the one sharing.

I'm with HeidiMD and queenlizzie. My best friend is sitting on the couch with me (he's on his laptop trying to make my internet faster - how awesome is that?) and I feel more comfortable talking about sex with him than I do with my girlfriends.

I don't think that someone with a straight male friend is skating on thin ice, as kuristal said. I think it's a sign of immaturity to not be able to have a platonic relationship with someone of the opposite gender. I have girls who are sisters to me, how is having guys who are like brothers to me any different?

My boy friends are definitely more willing to discuss sex than my girls are. In fact, they're usually the ones to bring it up-- it's always useful to have the perspective of the opposite sex. As long as you're comfortable with the topic, I think it's fine.

Sex is a private thing to me, I don't even discuss it with my girlfriends, much less any guy friends I would have.

I would feel pretty bad if my bf started discussing anything like that with one of his friends that are girls, and I wouldn't do that to him either.

I actually prefer to talk about sex w/ my guy friends instead of my girl friends. They keep it real with me about the dos and donts about sex.

I talk sex with anybody. I am very comfortable with my sex life and am happy to impart knowledge/experience onto anyone who asks really. Me and my friends (both male and female) discuss sex quite often!

Nope. I really hate talking sex with dudes. Hell I hate taking sex with my girl friends!

not really.....

I have a lot of older guy friend's that have given me good advise on how to make sex more interesting for my man! So far I can say their advise has made my man talk more about sex rather it's good or bad! You know the saying..... Women know what women want and men know what men want! To me it's not a real issue b/c if you can talk to your mate about what needs to change/happen in the bed then I'm sure talking to a man that's your best friend isn't so bad! Yes, I can see how it can be something sacred but if you only keep it casual then what makes it so bad!

I find it very helpful to get my male bff's perspective on "Does this seem right to you?" or to talk about generic or hypothetical situations. I don't share details about my bf though, just "in general" info.

I have one male friend that I can talk to about most anything. It helps to get a non-objective point of view from a guy.

I think men find it a bit difficult when you do this and if they welcome it, cool-but i don't think sex is something they wanna know more than half an hour chatting. TO get a male opinion on things is fantastic but men are very different from one another so as us women The commitment phobia type doesn't apply to all men. I find some men are rather sensitive and at the end of the days they love nice girls just like us girls love kind and savvy men!

If I didn't talk sex with my guy friends, I wouldn't have anyone to talk to about it.

I don't really have much I feel like I need to say to them, but sex is not an off-limits conversation.

Oh and I totally agree with you chatondeneige! The bestfriends wedding bit was more of a joke. I have more male friends then female, and there have come times where I could tell one of them would start to fall into a bit of a crush.

Some people cannot handle 'just being friends'. If you are respectful of your partners comfort zone and stay well aware of the platonic relationship between you and your friend it should be fine (ex.thin ice). But thinking its OK with every male - isn't necessarily true.

I think it's ok 2 have a man's perspective! I'm not conventional 2 say the least and i think it's a little close minded 2 assume that men are pigs when it comes 2 sex. Not all r, and most of us r adults right? we can all handle sex talk around the opposite sex without question. I love giving and getting advice. How else can u improve than get an honest LIVE advisor?! maybe i'm 2 liberal...who knows

I'm not close enough with any male friends to discuss those kinds of things. If I did have a close male friend, I would. Why not?

nope - i actually don't talk about sex with my male friends. it's one thing to want a guy's perspective - but it's another thing to actually ask for thoughts and feedback. i don't like to talk about sex to anyone, so i'm not going to ask one of my guy friends.
