Can you hear a pin drop during sex, or are you one of the loud and proud vocal crowd? This question springs to mind having just spent a few nights down on the Mornington peninsula, and the couple next door going for it 3 nights in a row so loudly an earthquake would have caused less trauma to our ears.

i am conscious that i make noise ... so try to keep silent, but a few noises do creep out

I'm more the quiet sort, unless I've had one glass of wine to many. Deathly silent would be a real buzz kill though.

Eeek, I posted twice ........ blonde moment

I think there is many different categories here. You have the so silent you can hear the pin drop quiet, the occasional OMG moment, the loud and proud moaning moment, or the porno style dirty talk moment.

Voicing your pleasure, whether it be simply a moan you can't control, or giving your partner verbal confirmation that they have indeed hit the spot, is a very good thing.

I'm not the quiet type. Hell, I like to know if I'm doing the right thing, so the more vocal the better.

Giving voice to pleasure is empowering for sure, but I'm more a moaner

:chuckles in Franks direction:

Just what the hell was in that posting you deleted Sarah, and why aren't Benj or Frank for that matter spilling their guts even when I beg?

Yours truly, well being a singer I'm obviously rather keen on stretching my vocal chords in the bedroom.

Damn you woman.

I don't like over the top smut talk but noises that happen naturally likes moans, sighs and stuff just adds to the moment.

Loud and proud moaner here.

(suffer Dave, until Sarah stops bribing me the lips remain sealed)

Quiet - no. Into a whole heap of dirty talk just for the sake of it - hell no.

dirty talk commes naturally for me...........................

hmmmmmmmm but I can also get all cuddly wuddly during slow sessions

I find the dirty talk quite off putting, but total quietness if even worse.
