How delicate is a woman's body?
I know women will usually talk about how they like sex rough or gentle, and men too. But how rough can your body actually take it?
I have come to the conclusion that I have a pretty fragile, sensitive body, and it has been brought to my attention that this is not the usual for women. Yes, we're all different, and different people are happy with different things, but some things are more or less common.
My body is not happy to be grabbed, pounded, man-handled or squeezed too hard, for too long. It just hurts me! I wish I was a little more resistant but that's the way I'm built.
I like things a little rough, it's exciting...but my delicate body can't take much really. To hear about these other women who, even despite their possibly delicate appearance, don't get hurt as easily, makes me feel rather inadequate. But, overall, I don't like pain during sex.
I was wondering what other women have to say about their own bodies in this respect, and what men have to say about the women they've been with and how rough they were able to get.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
