Dedicated to fetish, fantasy, and unbridled want, it would seem that orgies are environments open to boundless possibility. Indeed, when I dragged my husband to our very first\u00a0sexy\u00a0soiree, I prepared for our night out with the determination to be ready for anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I stuffed a large purse with my favorite\u00a0vibrator, a pair of handcuffs, an assortment of condoms, extra batteries, lube, and massage oil. I considered including my purple tickler and a wide-tipped riding crop, but balked at bringing such items onto my regular NJ Transit bus. I was well-stocked, though. God forbid I be unprepared for any possible instance of sexual pleasure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are some things, however, you can never be fully prepared for. After an evening with the debauched and insatiably desirous, I learned a thing or two about what NOT to do at a\u00a0sex\u00a0party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Do NOT count on your hostess to provide you with the same vajayjay-friendly lube you ordered from Good Vibrations.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n While it’s not necessary to bring the entire\u00a0contents\u00a0of your naughty drawer, you should take along the basic accouterments of safe and comfortable sex. A variety pack of glow-in-the-dark condoms should\u00a0more<\/em>\u00a0than cover the “safe” aspect, while your favorite lube should cover the “comfortable.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some party venues provide guests with free condoms and tiny packets of lube at the door. Better to be safe than sorry, though, especially when a complimentary tube of kiwi strawberry Astroglide is barely sufficient to get you past second base. You may prefer to bring your own glycerin-free products anyway, particularly if your hoo-ha is extra-sensitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2. Do NOT let your skinny jeans come between you and a quick lay.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n At my first party, I wore a snug pair of jeans, coupled with a boobtastic top that managed to make my 34Bs look more like 36Ds. My hubby couldn’t keep his hands off me, and we eventually retreated to a dark corner for heavy petting and an attempt at full-on fornication. Lord, did I regret wearing those jeans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I didn’t have any problems locating his most erogenous of zones, my clit was a bit more elusive. While crotchless panties aren’t exactly my style but a sexy skirt would have given his ding-dong a greater chance of reaching my jelly roll. Next time you’re suiting up for your local group grope, seriously consider the mini dress. Sans panties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. Do NOT ride the sex swing with a complete stranger without your partner’s permission.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Even in the most\u00a0open of relationships, boundaries should be set to account for varying comfort levels. Play parties can be especially fraught with tension, since you’re basically philandering in front of each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Such a situation can be an incredible turn-on for some couples, but\u00a0jealousy\u00a0is still possible so you’ll probably want to regulate the level of physical contact allowed with others. Or perhaps you’d like to create a rule stating that new boy\u00a0toys\u00a0must be shared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Whatever it is, make sure the parameters are clear before attending a gathering of libido-crazed men and women. In addition, I think it’s only logical to point out that preordained rules should not, under any circumstances, be broken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Even if that guy over there has a cute butt, or that chick can do amazing things with her tongue, such rule-flouting spontaneity could serve to undermine the very foundations of your relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If, after observing some interesting sexual possibilities, you feel that you’d like to raise the stakes next time, bring up the issue with your partner. There will always be other orgies, and there’s no rule saying that your MO can’t evolve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
