Posted: 3/7/2009 11:54:03 AM | I have read serveral threads on why do men/women make sexual innuendos on the first date, meet, or chat. So what is a light hearted way of saying, I don't talk about sex or anything of a sexual nature till I know someone. I know I am way to blunt, so I need something light hearted to keep lines of communication open and not make it sound like I am a prude. i have a sense of humor, but I tend to be on the serious side sometimes.
So tell me soemthing funny I can respond with............... | |

Posted: 3/7/2009 12:04:31 PM | perhaps ...... "y'know how hot air balloons go up in cool air ? keep the sex stuff cool for a bit and lets see from there"
or ......"y'know how it takes an engine to warm up a bit ? let me do the same."
or .... " did you ever hear the joke about the guy who lost a chance at a great thing because he said too much too soon ? ______ " well, you did not hear it because it is not a funny at how many guys loose the chance when they say too much to soon."
i'm not much of a joke writter but perhaps that will give you some ideas...... if i may be so bold, i would suggest that you place the shoes on the other foot... as groundwork perhaps you may or may not know that the level of sexual intimacy for a woman is the same as emotional intimacy for a man .... soooooo i can suggest if you run into the sex stuff before you are ready, ask the dude when was the last time he cried and why.... most likley he will not be ready to share that with you, and your response can be neither are you ready for any sex talk.
hope things work out for you

Posted: 3/7/2009 12:13:18 PM | besides deacons idea of a nun uniform, lol, I'm not really sure there is a real way with out being blunt to say that.
Easiest thing is to take it as a joke and swap subjects, so as not to stay on sex.
To be honest though even though most people would ever react if i was talkin to a lady and they just asked "do you mind if we not talk about sex?" i would take no offence to it. Its nice having someone thats honest and forward with me. | |

Posted: 3/7/2009 1:05:04 PM | | I don't understand why you need to be light hearted about something like this? If a guy initiates sex talk on or before a 1st date, is that really the type of guy you'd want to pursue a relationship with?? | |

Posted: 3/7/2009 1:26:18 PM | I am agreeing with Navigator again on this one. If a guy makes a sexual comment I am uncomfortable with I just look at him and tell him very bluntly I was starting to really like you.. Sorry I don't go down that road till I know you better.
I make if very clear right up front that I am not into casual sex, when and if there is a sexual comment made I usually keep right on going with the vein of conversatoin I stated by ignoring it. | |

Posted: 3/7/2009 1:52:43 PM | i agree that there's no need to be light hearted about something if it's so far out of bounds to begin with.
i dunno..maybe ask him "what is it about me, my personality or my profile that suggested to you that it would even be appropriate to ask that until we knew each other better?"
better luck with the next guy. | |

Posted: 3/7/2009 2:14:34 PM | | You should not say anything. You want to find a guy that has the qualities you are looking for, not coach a guy on how to date you. If you meet a guy and he is just too forward for you, maybe you move on to the next one. | |

Posted: 3/7/2009 2:16:03 PM | Thank you everyone for the responses. I am a blunt person, and in the past have flat out said "I don't talk about sex until there is something between two people."
I was just looking to instead of taking a hard line, to insert a little more humor into the response. I have a tendency to be off putting in my responses, by taking the hard line and what not. I block people that don't respect the wish of no sex talk to soon, if they persist on continuing that line of conversation. So it isn't like I continue a conversation with said person. Why I am saying person instead of man is beyond me. lol. I was just looking to try out being a tad more light about the situtation, and not always so hard lined. | |

Posted: 3/7/2009 2:39:00 PM | | if you havent come up with a funny and clever way to change the subject...What does that tell you...you're not funny or clever enought to do it that way...quit messing around-state that you dont talk sexy on your first date on your profile and quit fooling around! | |

Posted: 3/7/2009 2:57:37 PM | I think it's highly dependent upon what is said to you.
So, want to have sex in the parking lot? - Sorry, that's how I tipped the valet and now I'm broke...do they serve lobster? (get him worried about what you're going to charge for the inappropriate questions)
So, what color underwear do you have on? - Brown, I've been having continence problems lately and really want to improve my life. (I know those with a dictionary will love the entendre).( Guys find poop jokes funny, or you can talk about self development.)
So, when was the last time you had sex? - Hmmm, do primates count? My last date ended horribly as my boyfriend went all crazy jealous and attacked my best friend. (switch to current events and primates as pets, government monkey laws and politics)
So, what's your favorite position? - Well, if I hang them by the ankles it makes it easier to drain and dismember. The hard part is getting them up there in the first place. I like the Simco step ladder, but it only holds a couple hundred pounds.
(nothing like dead body and murder humor, you can get to comparing best ways to picking up deranged hitch hikers and rolling bums for sport...at some point someone is going to make a "it puts the lotion in the basket" comment...good times)
So, what's your cup size? - Well for christmas I got these nice campbell soup mugs, they've got pictures of little kids, and they hold a whole can of tomato soup. The gonorrhea medication needs to be taken with meals. So they just make it easier.
(talk about health benefits of tomato soup and antioxidants, health care industry, STD scares)
i have a sense of humor, but I tend to be on the serious side sometimes.
So are you looking to deflect the question with humor or just simply tell them it's not something you feel comfortable telling them about and you think less of them for bringing something up inappropriately? | |

Posted: 3/7/2009 3:06:35 PM | Why do you feel the need to be light hearted or amuzing about this.
I'd just say straight out, I don't want to talk about sex with you or any man unless I'm ready to invite you into my bed. Let's not put the horse before the cart as in your a horses ass and Im the cart.
I don't know. Be real direct. If you have a sence of humor it should come natural if your not all that quick witted (hence this post? ) than just be honest and sincere.
I could think of a thousand ways to "make" it funny but drawing the lines of healthy sexual boundaries isn't really a joke, now is it. | |

If you haven't come up with a funny and clever way to change the subject...What does that tell you...you're not funny or clever enough to do it that way...quit messing around. State that you don't talk sexy on your first date on your profile and quit fooling around!
There may be some truth to this statement. If you're in person, and the guy starts talking all sexual, you can (polite/flirty) respond with, "So, what kind of woman do you respect?"
This should change the subject, and make sure you have a smile on your face!  | |

Posted: 3/7/2009 3:07:48 PM | You see a lot of men over in AAG complaining about women not just saying what they are thinking and playing games. Why are you worried that the statement of your boundaries in a clear and concise manner would be too blunt?
It's your chance to see if he respects your personal boundaries.
If he calls you a prude, expresses dissatisfaction with what you say, or ignores your boundaries and continues to push the matter, he is not the right one for you.
Find a curb, kick him to it. | |

Posted: 3/7/2009 3:09:59 PM | To deflect with humor, Geeze I can be out right rude but what is the fun in that, unless someone goes way over board. And sometimes it is easier to hear someone elses humorous responses, to keep in mind for later use. Kinda like a cache of jokes or what not. I'm not stupid, just tend to be blunt. btw iliked the hanging for dismemberment one, that was choice | |

Posted: 3/7/2009 3:24:47 PM | Don't be rude.
But if he is talking about subjects you don't want to talk about. Who is being rude?
You do not want to communicate with someone who brings these subjects up prematurely. Funny or not funny it won't help. Move on.
You seem to be intelligent enough to create your own responses. | |

Posted: 3/7/2009 4:02:23 PM | I wouldnt worry about being light hearted.. If that topic would arrise on your first date or second and that you did not give him false pretenses.. He just left himself wide open for both barrels.. When dealing with a dog one must be a dog.. | |

Posted: 3/7/2009 4:13:21 PM | Have you ever thought about telling him a story about a date that went horribly wrong because the guy kept making sexual innuendos and how put off you were by it?
I think this might be the thing you are looking for.
Just tell a short life story that his sort of funny about how creepy and rude it was. Laugh a little as you reflect back on it, he will laugh too.
You are not confronting him at all, but you are also getting the point across that this area is a little off limits. | |

I have responded in a similar manner many times. "What makes you cry?"
They usually refuse to answer and many times will say "What a weird question!"
Not any weirder than expecting me to talk about something intimate. | |
