Screen shot 2012 05 15 at 11.31.00 AM1 380x347 The sex bucket list. How many of these can you tick off?

Zoe Saldana and Amanda de Cadenet

When the Conversation’s Amanda de Cadenet asked A-list celebrities about their preferences when it comes to positions in the boudoir, responses were varied.

It was doggy style for Zoe Saldana, missionary for Jane Fonda (who said “fake knee” limited mobility) and Gwyneth Paltrow? She said she was “down with all of them”.

So does that mean she’d be down with all of these?

This list was published on The Stir as the ’50 sexual things everyone should do before they die.’ Call it a bucket list. Or call it some other list that rhymes with ‘bucket’ and starts with ‘f’.

From the mile high club, to a touch of whip cream. Take a look.

1. Kiss a girl

How many can you tick off?

    Those of you who have had a one night stand, what is it like? I am not the slightest big interested in ever having a one night stand BTW (nor am I judging those who have had a one night stand). I’m just curious to know what it is like? Do you feel awkward or shy or anything being naked and vulnerable in front of a complete stranger? I couldn’t do it and don’t understand the appeal which is why I’m asking about it.

    As a female, I need to feel emotionally close to someone before I can have sex with them, which is one of the reasons why I couldn’t have a one night stand.

    What is it like having sex with someone you don’t know?

  11. Anon for this!

    25 of these and happy with that considering I thought I’d manage only a couple as I am 50 and headed for the retirement home (according to advertisers out there, anyway)

    Seriously….tied up? Feather ticklers? Watching other people? Look….call me a prude but this is just ridiculous. I would double up laughing if the other half brought out a feather tickler – and as for watching other people…all that jiggling flesh…and the gross smells. No thanks.

    But hey, whatever floats your boat (and I’ve done it on a boat!)

      Good comment :) I am in that club, and so are a lot of my friends. I’m not saying we were virgins till marriage, but one-man women. It is definitely unique these days. I do sometimes wonder what it would have been like to have had more experience before meeting “The One” but back then I knew I couldn’t make love to anyone else.

    Some of you need to remember that sex is a normal function between two consenting people of age. its not disgusting, wierd or perverted. If you personally dont like the above activities, thats fine, but why denigrate the article and look down your nose at others who do?
    Its all about personal choice.

    Most of these things look pretty gross and unappealing to me personally. But then I have only had one sexual partner, by choice. And I ended up marrying him. So I can probably be labelled as extremely prude :-D

    Aaaaand mamamia sinks to an even greater low. So many decent articles, but far too many inappropriate ones also. I realize my post will be attacked – but why is it a good thing to spread yourself around? Have some self respect. If feminism means behaving in such a manner, then forget it. The discussions and comments are far too explicit for an open forum – anybody can join, including teens. Seriously.

      Who the hell liked this comment?

      What does self-respect have to do with who you sleep with? I was a virgin until was 22. I hated myself so much I wouldn’t let anyone close to me. I’ve only slept with two men, both of whom were absolute pieces of shit. I’ve never had self-respect and I’m still working on it. Meanwhile, most of my friends have “spread themselves around”, and they are far more confident and secure in themselves than I’ll ever be.

      The list is tame, and the comments aren’t all that explicit. Many teens are sexually active, and those that aren’t are still very much aware of their sexuality, so why shouldn’t they read and comment on posts about sex?

        Who the hell liked this comment?
        14 people
        Which is probably a pretty large amount from a statistical POV.
        Which suggests that despite the fact that so many commented in support of this article – there is a huge number who didn’t comment and feel differently.

        I didn’t say anything about confidence – i said self respect.

        The point I was trying to establish is.. your sexuality is a thing to value – why share it around doing things that coincidently cause you to need the next best and bigger thrill next time? A list of things to conquer.

        You’re actually worth more than you think, and when you do things like this – you’re only kidding yourself.

        The list is certainly not tame – and shouldn’t be on an open fb post.

        So.. because so many teenagers are sexually active we should encourage them to do whatever they like with whoever they like?
        I like to think their parents would value them more than that and encourage them to be more discerning. As this is a community of women, I would hope that it would be more protective of those we are raising (as a community) -making this sort of post available goes the other way.

          if sexuality is something to be valued, then why not flaunt it!

          and teenagers are exposed to porn, this IS tame in comparison. don’t be fooled by the passing 18+ screen, it doesn’t stop you watching if you’re ‘too young’. this is a harmless bit of fun!

          why shouldn’t we have a bit of fun with sex. if you respect yourself, then succumb to your desires!

    I’ve tried having sex in the water, but it was always too painful :-/
    And yes, sex with no kissing (only cos the bf had a coldsore at the time)

    To be honest i have zero interest in having anal (gross) or a threesome, or group sex. Or watch other people having sex!

  27. Hmmm

    Group sex? Threesomes? Anal sex? Kissing someone of the same sex (even if you’re not attracted to the same sex)? Bondage and S&M? Sex toys? Sex in public? Watching others have sex? Sex with no kissing?

    Who wrote this list? A freakin porn star?!

    This is SO not a ‘bucket list’. More like a ‘chuck it’ list.

    31, plus 1 for same-sex sex which somehow doesn’t rate a mention.

    I assume “group sex” is more than three people? There are no drive-ins where I live, I can’t afford La Perla or Fredericks lingere (and I doubt they’d come in 16E anyway) and I’ve never been married. But my one night stand with a stranger is over 4 years old and still blissful! (He was the exboyfriend of an exgirlfriend with whom we were both still friendly.)
