I use all three methods. It's better to just let them know.

All three, plus a LD relationship often leads us to talking more often about these type of things, so we can put them into practise when we get together

All three. Direct communication + more subtle tips almost always gets me what I want.

I start with moans and repositioning them or their fingers. If necessary I tell them what feels oh, so good or point out something on a movie that would be very nice or fun, wink, wink.

It's taken my partner and I three years to finally get this worked out. I have health problems that cause a lot of pain with any kind of stimulation so it causes me to be really shy about speaking up for fear of making him feel less than or like it's his fault I'm hurting. Our system for what we like and dislike in bed is very complicated. Lol. We use moans, guiding and just coming straight out and saying it. We often try and discuss it afterwards too, just to make sure we're both satisfied and to talk about the fun parts.

We do all of the above. A lot of the time we talk before and afterwards about what we like/want/are in the mood for.

Seems we are in the majority on this. However, since being on the EF site together, we DISCUSS different activities together, now more then ever. It has REALLY spiced up an already good love life.

I've learned to become very vocal about what I want in the bedroom. It makes a big difference. For anyone to believe that every man or woman cums the same way is naiive. Gotta train our partners!

maybe some dirty talking would help, voicing when he's doing something that you really enjoy it, and by the moans, and maybe if you don't like it, move his hand, head or w.e in a different direction.

I think open and honesty is the best. You have to be comfortable to say those types of things

We do all of the first 3. We will also talk about specific likes/dislikes in just normal conversation - sometimes through talking about polls on EF, or just past experiences. The better the communication, the better the sex as someone upthread said! I know personally, I want to know all the secrets and tricks that drive my man crazy, and he feels the same about me. It's fun to really, really please your partner, and who knows all the tips and tricks better than they do themselves!

I used to have a lot of trouble telling my partners what made me happy in bed. Thankfully I'm in a relationship and point in my life where I just tell my partner what I want and don't want. And now sex is fucking fantastic. Yay!

I use all 3 methods, though I tend more toward showing with sounds & touch rather than talking - partially shyness & getting flustered trying to explain, partially not wanting to sound like a drill sergeant. Hah.

All the "How to Talk About Sex" articles say that if you want to have any extended discussion, do it outside the bedroom at a neutral time, not right during. But I've tried that & it was always awkward. When I suddenly brought up sex at dinnertime it seemed like the guy took it as one of those "We need to talk" things where something was wrong. And I'm trying to say "No, I just want to maximize our experience..." and it just gets weird & subject gets dropped. Guess my smooth needs work there.

Biggest communication issue I have is trying to get guys to tell me what they want. I specifically ask "Hey, do you like this?" "Anything you like even better?" Etc. And that never goes anywhere either.

*shrug* Guess I'm meant to stick to pointing & moaning. LoL.

All three, I make sounds to encourage and if there is something I don't like I say so or guide him.

I'm quite the blunt person, so I make it known what feels good and what they should do. XD I wish the guys I go after would be more creative though.

Not only sexually, but in all aspects of life, I just tell and/or show my partner what I want/need/like as directly as possible. They'll never know otherwise!
