When was your sex taboo broken?
Now that I'm married, sex talk is no longer taboo. I honestly didn't think it'd have this much of an impact on me. The stigma is gone. Tt's family doesn't bother us when we leave the door closed (I think they want grandkids). No one expects me to sleep on the couch. My mother didn't blush the other day when she offered her king-size bed while she left for vacation. I find it easier to discuss sex, play, toys, etc. with our friends in relationships, these conversations are no longer reserved for this forum alone.
I don't quite understand the change. I believe it is because family is now comfortable, and it's taking away a shame I never realized I felt. Or is it something else. I believe this was only the case because we were both raised in families where premarital sex was highly discouraged - it would be different if our families were more open about sex.
Have any of you experienced a similar shift when you were newly married? Or perhaps at another turning point in life? Do share!
