How to talk dirty without feeling like an ass

A lot of people refuse to talk dirty because they are afraid of sounding stupid. But you don't have to say things out of character, throw around more four-letter words than Gordon Ramsay, or speak in pornographic detail in order to verbally accessorize sex successfully. In fact, you don't have to use a single swear! Sure, that makes the dirty talk a little less dirty, but it's still effective--and with 57 percent less blushing! We never write down actual dirty talk on paper because something invariably gets lost in translation--out of context it does sound stupid. But we're breaking our rule to show you how painless it can be. Think of it as kinder, gentler dirty talk. It's all a bit cliche, but in the moment it works every time. (Can't bring yourself to do it in English? Try Swahili!)

So without further ado, the top ten mid-sesh lines for the lewdly challenged:

1. Familiar:
"[Insert partner's name here]. Oh, [insert partner's name here]."
2. Positive: "Yes." (repeat)
3. Directive: (while pointing) "Touch/kiss me here."
4. Encouraging: "Just like that."
5. Inquisitive: "How does that feel? / Does that feel good? / Do you like that?" (not all at once, though)
