Are there women that not only like receiving anal sex but they want the man to make it hurt as much as possible. Such as going balls deep in one massive thrust with no lube and just keep pounding? If so what is it called?

I expected it to be quite popular (it IMHO isn´t that weird) but it seems there are no websites dedicated to it, while there are websites about totally weird stuff like furries, or swallowing.

I’m surprised by the number of women I sleep with that are into choking and hair pulling. Many are embarrassed to make it known. That why when I’m talking to a new girl and it’s pretty apparent that we’re going to hook up, I’ll try to bring up the subject in a casual manner.

Cuckqueen is the name for the female version of Cuckolds so if you enjoy your man being with another woman then yes Cuckqueen is your label.

If it were the opposite situation and you were the woman with a Cuckold partner and he enjoyed seeing you with another man then you would be a Hotwife.

Squirting is not piss, it’s a sexual discharge from the vagina, some women fake it by pissing but squirting and gushing is the female equivalent of ejaculating. I have a female friend who gushes when she cums, having had her gush on my face it’s definitely not piss.

Felching is the act of sucking the cum from whatever hole with the mouth or with a straw. You may like some overstimulation as well if you like your pussy licked after you cum too.
