in general, do you use blacklight, lava lamp, strobe lights, colored bulbs, neon, candles, etc...to set the mood for sex? more so, years into a relationship, do you still use lighting to set the mood? i think i'm going to put some effort into this soon. a little bowie and some blacklights!..could be fun.

It's been quite a while since I used mood lighting, I should do it more often.

I like to have soft lighting during sex. I don't want a bright overhead light - that feels like we're shooting a porno or something. I don't want no light, because that leads to fumbling and clumsiness, and I like to see my partner naked. So a bedside lamp is perfect... especially one where I don't have to get out of bed afterwards to turn it off.

I never really think about it. We have used candles for a little light at times, but it's just something we never think about.

when we plan our evening candles are usually involved. but most of the time now we dont. we did a lot at the beginning of the relationship.. but i think its because he felt like he had to try harder to impress me by setting the mood

I like soft lighting in the bedroom, it makes everything more intimate.

We have little middle-eastern lamps that we like to light sometimes with candles.

Yes low muted light sometimes with a scarf over it for color variance sometimes not. Not only that I spray some nice linen spray on the sheets, my rose petals and ready the room just as I were primping myself. Think about when serving a meal, you just don't throw food on the table, you enhance the place setting for each person.

Most times no but we will occasionally light some candles or use our dimmer bedside lamps for mood lighting when we're feeling more romantic.

We don't need anything fancy, because we always have a nightlight on.

In the beginning we tried different lighting to see which one worked best for us. We figured out 2 candles (one on each side of the room), and the tv on works the best

One of our bedside lamps is very soft and it's wonderful for setting the mood. My favorite is firelight. I want our next house to have a fireplace in the bedroom!
