Mind you, the way you guys have used it on this forum it's more like "if you dont like being choked, bitten, spanked and handcuffed, you're vanilla" :noway:

There's plenty of other stuff not involving pain and humiliation that isn't boring...........................! :smokin:

I thought it was funny how this thread ranged from vanilla to dom talk too...I'm guessing it was the OP's "bite em" comment that sparked the latter.:laugh: There is definitely plenty of fun stuff in between those two points on a spectrum.

While some people frown on having sexual conversations before even meeting, it has helped me weed out those that I would not be compatible with, and has helped me find some fantastic experiences.

Even as recently as a few months ago I thought sexual conversations before meeting were a huge no-no. I'm starting to rethink that it can be fun, respectful and informative AS LONG AS both parties approach it in the same manner. But that's really a chemistry thing because you're either comfortable with that kind of discussion to a certain point or you're not - and it's ok either way if you're on the same page.

I'm definitely 'vanilla'!! ( I think? Not really sure what the whole definition is) But certainly experienced!! :bigsmile:

Anna, When something (not just sex) is described as vanilla it just means it's basic or boring... I'm going out on a limb here, but I'm guessing you are anything but vanilla! :bigsmile:

The funny thing about all the complaints about vanilla. I am certain that vanilla is the number 1 selling flavor of ice cream. Plain cheese is also the number 1 selling type of pizza. Apparently there are a lot of people out there that like the simple things.

I'd venture to guess that's because you can't really go wrong with a classic. At the same time, the more basic something is, the easier it is to add to...for example, how often do people really eat vanilla ice cream alone, or do they usually serve it with pie or make a sundae with it? Simple things can be great, and made even better when combined with other simple things!

I think many people have changed what they think about things after discussions with each other here.

This is something where maybe quality also counts. I don't care for the soft vanilla (Dairy Queen) but the hard stuff is great (mmmm.... Haagen-Dazs). There's definitely good vanilla that stands on its own and mediocre vanilla that is boring, too sweet and maybe a bit artificial.

Just because something is simple doesn't mean it has to be boring and low in quality!

I agree. Between discussions here and my own recent experience dating, I have a very different outlook on this stuff. :drinker:
