Do women like things to start out like a guy or do they want to enjoy a slow work up? I wanted a cross section of opinions to better know my partner.

Personally speaking, sensations are such that starting fast and hard makes softer touches less effective afterward. So a build up is much nicer.

If you wanna know your partner better, I say you ask him or her, not us.

Agreed.

Variety is more important than anything else. I'm inclined to start slowly and warm her up - but sometimes she just wants to go hard right away. Avoid the rut - mix it up - watch her body language.

For my wife, if she's a little preoccupied or reluctant the slow approach is best - but if it's Friday night and we both know it's going to be hot - it's crushed lips, torn clothes, nips, bites, fingers, dildos and vibes - in one fast blur of action.

Agreed, it is very important to talk to your partner and see what he/she likes, because everyone likes different things.

I also agree that you should just ask.

I personally would say it depends on the mood I am in at the time. Some nights Soft and slow is preferable. Other time the rougher the better.

I would have preffered something soft to start, but I didn't have that option.

It really depends on my mood, but more often than not, I like things to start slowly at first. It puts me more at ease.

Ahhh, mood makes all the difference.

Most times I'd rather a quicky but, ya know, at least SOME foreplay.

It's different every time. There are days when I am just not in the mood for a really hard toy like a hard plastic G Spot toy. Other times, My Man will just jump in with whatever he grabs and it's fun.

I do usually like to play and get wet before he grabs a toy and jams it in, though. He usually "tests the waters" with his fingers before using a toy.

I think depends on who it is. Everyone has days where they want it hard, or they want it soft. Probably just good to communicate.

I think it would vary and depend on the person. I like things both ways-

I choose a mix of both. It always depends. I suggest you just talk to her about it. Only she knows what she likes best.

Depends on the mood. If we're going at it in the shower, it's gotta be quick or we'll end up in a cold shower and I friggen hate being cold. If we're anywhere else, we take it slow.

Build up is incredibly important. If my husband were to just start fucking me without any sort of foreplay, well that's just not going to go over well. Granted, some situations call for less foreplay than others.

In general, I don't much like hard toys these days

Yep. For me personally, with material things at least, variety is the spice of life.

Start soft and slow and build up your momentum. I like both it just depends on my mood at the time.

Anything too overwhelming at first really makes me lose interest.

I think it depends on the woman. Although some days I like it hard and fast, I really need a slow build up to climax.
