How to Kiss and Tell

We can’t deny the simple joy of a good, discreet dish session. That said, there are a few rules:

  1. No X-rated group emails. Choose one or two close, tight-lipped friends who can keep their mouths shut. A one-night-stand with someone outside your social circle is fair fodder for a slightly wider audience, as are generic and complimentary comments (”The best missionary sex I’ve ever had!”).
  2. Negative comments about someone’s performance (size, stamina, creativity, body odor, etc.) should be shared sparingly. The same applies to details regarding kinky sex.
  3. The more serious a relationship (i.e. the more time your partner spends with your friends), the less appropriate dishing the dirt becomes. You don’t have to give it up completely — dirt can be an invaluable source of sex education. It’s just polite to consider whether your friends would enjoy your dinner parties more if they knew a little less about each other’s butt plug proclivities.
  4. Finally, it’s rude to exaggerate stories to improve their narrative tension or, um, climax. This nulls any educational benefit, creates false envy or even feelings of inadequacy in your audience (if not suspicion), disrespects your partner and, most importantly, makes you a liar.

    Or a person can choose to keep his/her mouth shut.

    Love the illogical logic of #1: Share with 1 or 2 if the person is know to all, but feel free to blab to a larger circle if the person is not...as if paths may not ever cross again?

    Stupid article, really stupid article...was it written by a 12 yr old or just for a 12 yr old?

    ...and why would you WANT to blab, anyway?

    Is your self-esteem so low that you have to cop the attitude of "Hey, guess what? Someone had sex with me!! See, I MUST be attractive!!"

    Um...congratulations??

    I say and tell myself, those who spread Gossip and cause tons of turmoil to the leading of a soul to be in a lot of problems, are not only by Bible description a LIAR in disguise, but these types of souls TRULY HAVE NO LIFE OF THEIR VERY OWN, therefore creating more WEDGES in life even in the Lumped Leaven you all call a MONARCHY of being of the SAME ESSENCE.

    OMG!! It's not like none of us have ever dished to our best friends about a date (good or bad) that we've had. The rules for kissing and telling are simple. "Say nothing you wouldn't want others to know about and do nothing you wouldn't want to have to possibly explain to paramedics later."

    I am sorry but telling about your sex life that should be private, what are you gonna say? Hey I gave a good ----- or this is how he inserted this and that, you can say how great it was and or how you feel about him, but people who dish about very precise details creepy & kind of loose. Some lady my cousin worked with once told her out of nowhere, well I know she doesn't give good ----- s like me!? WTF Something to be proud of?

    Oh come on you prudes. I've had my girls in stitches over some of my sexploits. How could you not tell your best gals about the guy that pulled your diapragm out and threw it on the floor or the guy that wanted you to pee on him? That's just funny stuff right there. But my rule is that casual affairs that are not part of my circle of friends are open to any and all details. The guy that I'm dating/in a relationship with, not so much. I don't want to be sitting across from the gf's hubby at dinner and thinking about his penis size and I'm sure they feel the same way.
