Generally speaking, during sex men are more goal oriented while women on the other hand want the passion/the feeling of wanting it to last forever.
No, we don't want it to "last forever".......cause, ya know, the cigarette at the end is just bomb! lmao! | |

Posted: 9/22/2009 1:45:01 AM | ^^^I loved how you interpreted that quote, pearlj..
I wonder if Anais NIN ever discovered her GSPOT or was with a lover who found it and could make it bark all night long. Perhaps THAT is why she was so in tune with herself and how she said she liked to be taken by her man (no her husband apparently) and pounded. I'd love to find out.
I don't think you're FOS like you said, Dave. But I also don't think you really do understand that quote. It is utterly female, the complete yang. It's so much more than being pounded. It's so much more than sex, yet it is totally sexual. | |

Posted: 9/22/2009 7:55:28 AM | | I think a lot of strong women can relate to this quote, I am a single mother, full-time employee, I run my house, my career, and my life, it seems like I am always in command, so when I find a partner, I want him to dominate completely in the bedroom, I want to feel helpless to him, totally safe in his arms, and at his will...but only in the bedroom, the real world is hard enough to handle day by day, I want to be swept away at night...is that asking for to much?? | |

Posted: 9/22/2009 9:23:23 AM | Thank you for your analysis of what you think I'm trying to say. Not FOS but I still don't GETIT, huh?
Wish you'd actually READ what I write. I KNOW it's a leeeeltle bit more here than describing getting "pounded" OK?
Nope .. still doesn't see it.
She is writing about her INNER CORE and the self-confidence, trust, LOVE to be with a partner with whom she can COMPLETELY OPEN HERSELF to her own and as a result, HIS LUST.
Total abandon.
WONDERFUL. RARE.
THAT is why I asked about the GSPOT. ANYBODY who has worked a lovers GSPOT .. concentrated on JUST her orgasms .... over and over and over. Mind-blowing intensity and comPLETELY focused on HER body and her reactions, KNOWS TOTAL ABANDON!! If she is going completely out of her skull, legs and abdomen convulsing like she's breathing nerve gas, barely able to catch her next breath, passing out and cuming to only to have another orgasm rip through her. Being left, at the end, little more than a mumbling twitching sweaty pile - unable to stand, to talk, only able to suck air in and try and descramble her neuron net. Spontaneous orgasms wrenching through her body 12 hours later just watching her lover lick jam off his toast !!! It's nice to lust after that degree of lust but few know how to really take her there or at least to THAT extent.
To me THAT is the kind of abandon NIN is talking about. It can be achieved in many ways depending on the woman. My fav is THAT way for a reason. I was expressing my curiosity whether NIN ....EVAAR achieved THAT degree of being dominated (not just pounded - that's different. It has its place and time but not in this discussion) sexually by a lover who has THAT degree of control over HER orgasms. THAT is an epiphany for many and that's why I asked.
As you avoided my actual question I'm guessing you haven't so I understand you trying to 'splain to me that NIN's description is bit deeper (figuratively speaking) than a good "pounding." | |

Have you ever read any of her work or just this quote?
Nin is sexual, of course, the quote is sexual - but she was also an intellectual. She's talking about submission which of course is more than the sexual release.
Anyway, I'll give up trying to convince you. That's the wonderful thing about literature - it's open to interpretation. | |

Posted: 9/22/2009 3:17:54 PM | I love this quote and have had it on my computer for years. When I first read it, it touched a cord.
Now I cant help but notice the ensuing debate about Gspots, I dont know if she ever had a Ggasm, but Im pretty sure that she was one hell of a sexy woman, who probably had a plethera of orgasms
My interpretation is this.... its the joy of being loved for ones womanhood, having all my soft, curvy bits that make me womanly desired and celebrated by my man. That my man appreciates and understands that HE is my number one, that his needs come first. That I will debate with him, I will argue with him, I will express myself in all the ways I can and that he is man enough to enjoy and love those sides of me. That his pleasure is my pleasure, that I will release myself to providing the most wonderful, joyful, and tantalising experiences I can offer him. That through releasing myself to him, I open myself to all the experiences he can likewise provide me. But in the end, the very cornerstone of our relationship is each other, that my focus is not on myself but on HIM. | |

Posted: 9/22/2009 8:52:00 PM | I simply can't IMAGINE having a conversation with you. EVERYTHING said you would analyzed to the point it has no possible relationship to what was actually said and then you'd use that as the basis of your argument. Beyond frustrating. Demonstrably, irrefutably a reason for singledom too.
She's not talking about orgasms.
Thank you SOOO much for that revelation. Am I to gather that this was based on the fact that she didn't specifically mention orgasms, a process of elimination or the presumption that if she'd MEANT to say orgasms, she would have???
She's talking about submission which of course is more than the sexual release.
Again, thanks so much. I don't know what I'd do in here without you explaining it all to me. 
I, on the other hand, was introducing the hypothetical query regarding sexual release - to be specific - MASSIVE MULTIPLE SEXUAL RELEASES which of course can be evidence of submission. (I'm dying to see how YOU interpret THAT) This was hypothetical. I simply stated I was CURIOUS if she ever experienced THAT level of submission COUPLED with the massive and numerous orgasms one is capable of having if her lover is/was aware of that function and technique.
Yes, thank you. I've read lots of NIN over the years. Most of what she writes in regard to sexual liberation and welcoming ones own sexual desires is based on a sexual maturity and self confidence and that has ALWAYS turned me on about a woman.
That's the wonderful thing about literature - it's open to interpretation.
Except that in your case your "interpretation" is based on either not reading, comprehending, ignoring it or much more likely, unable to grasp the concept that some guys actually get it and have long before you did.
*womans' gonna drive me to drink ....

I've always found that women fascinated by Anais Nin are neurotic, undersexed, and boring...usually morose undergrads.
WOW, THAT shut them up didn't it?
What about the ones who aspire to be her and actually make the effort to emulate her spirit or at least the spirit of her writings ?? SO if she is neurotic is it merely wishful thinking or something deeper that draws her to NIN's writings??

As the original poster of this thread, (yes... I know... different profile name... *gasp*) I can assure you that I am not neurotic, undersexed, boring... nor am I a morose undergrad.  Talk about generalizations.
Yes, I realize she had an incestuous relationship... I realize that there were many things she did in her life that I would not do. However, that does not change the fact that she does have some quotes that I really like. Simple as that. I do not want to BE her, nor do I want to be LIKE her... I am able to look past a persons life choices and admire the things they say that speak to me... hell, even Dr.Seuss has quotes I like, that doesn't mean I'm going to start speaking in rhyme!

Posted: 9/24/2009 2:32:46 PM | Since Anais Nin is most well known for her erotica, it seems weird that undersexed women would be attracted to her work.
And I think what is attractive about her non-fiction is her exploration of her relationships with men. She was definitely not a woman of her time - she was a free spirit who questioned the status quo in many ways.
But I can see why some would find her threatening - her most famous non-fiction work (apart from her diaries) was titled "In Favor of the Sensitive Man" where she argued for a new model of manhood - a man is in touch with his emotions, but still retains his masculine power.
"For the new woman and the new man, the art of connecting and relating separate interests will be a challenge. If women today do not want a nonexistent husband married to Big Business, they will accept a simpler form of life to have the enjoyment of a husband whose life blood has not been sucked by big companies. I see the new woman shedding many luxuries. I love to see them, simply dressed, relaxed, natural, playing no roles. For the transitional stage was woman's delicate problem: how to pass from being submerged and losing her identity in a relationship, how to learn to merge without loss of self. The new man is helping too by his willingness to change too, from rigidities to suppleness, from tightness to openness, from uncomfortable roles to the relaxation of no roles...do not I say to today's women, please do not mistake sensitivity for weakness. This was the mistake which almost doomed our culture. Violence was mistaken for power, the misuse of power for strength." - Anais Nin. | |

Posted: 9/28/2009 11:35:35 PM | | Anais Nin was a great writer. The thing I loved about Anais is that she made the sexual experience sound like something worth exploring, and that 2 people can feel connected to each other without having to be in a committed relationship. There's nothing wrong with mutual pleasure, and I'm glad Anais Nin was a writer that explored that. Her books have always inspired me. | |
