Short answer? Probably.
Longer answer: there really isn't one version of a “normal” sex life.
Some couples have sex three times a week. Some haven't had sex in three months. Some people own an entire drawer of toys. Some have one trusty favourite. Some people know exactly what they like, and others are still figuring it out.
All of those people are normal.
We tend to get a very weird picture of what everyone else is doing. Movies make spontaneous, perfectly coordinated sex look like a Tuesday night occurrence. Porn is entertainment, not a documentary. And your friends probably aren't giving you a detailed quarterly report.
So instead of asking “Is this normal?”, there might be a better question:
“Is this working for me?”
Are you happy with your sex life? Do you feel comfortable talking about what you want? Are you having fun? Is there something you're curious about trying?
If the answer is yes, we're good - great.
If the answer is ehhh… maybe not - that's okay too. It doesn't mean anything is wrong with you or your relationship. It might just mean there's room to talk, explore, experiment, or try something different.
And that's kind of the point of the LoL Lounge.
We're going to talk about the things people are curious about, answer the questions you might not want to ask out loud, bust a few myths, run some very scientific-ish polls, and hopefully make talking about sex feel a whole lot less awkward.
Because when it comes to sex, “normal” is a pretty boring goal anyway.
