…an array of perspectives and random thoughts on love...loveS and life...

Lights on, lights OFF...

…or in between? No, I’m not necessarily talking about lowering your electricity bill but more about the level of lighting in the bedroom (when a certain activity is on)

candlelight lighter candles


Why is there a preference for one over the other…or are you generally not bothered?

A colleague once told me that she needs the lights off -- she doesn’t like her partner seeing her body (she confessed that she has a self-imagery problem) so much so that once when her partner accidentally left the bathroom light on, she got totally turned off…and they got into an argument!

A quick dipstick around the table revealed…
Cat doesn't like the lights on -- said it makes her feel like she's in a porno.
Elise doesn't mind either way as long as she's getting some...!
Sonia prefers the moody scene -- candles or a thin colored material over the lamp; though it can be a fire hazard.

So…what is it for you – lights on, off or in-between?

I've always preferred it with the lights on - I have no issues with my body and love being able to clearly see the look on his face (especially towards the end!). With the lights off, you feel as though he could be imagining someone else, and candles seem kinda cliche.

My dear Lara!

I'm a lights off kind of guy - I'm not a big fan of seeing my private parts. It's nasty stuff.

<LOL> I like your reason, Journeywoman

It is unfortunate though that the candles scene have been a cliche by Hollywood...



I'm sure it ain't that bad, Dean
