The 8 absolute worst things to do during sex

When it comes down to sex, we can be forgiven for focussing on what we're supposed to do. But by doing this, some of us might be neglecting the things we shouldn't be doing.

And, wow, there are a heap of things you should more definitely be avoiding.

Fortunately, thanks to a reddit post that acts like a directory of nooky no-nos, you now have no excuse.

Here are some of the worst things you could do during sex.

1. Getting too heated

Touching your wife after handling spices and peppers.

2. Too much self-love

Calling out your own name and slapping your own a$$.

3. Getting ahead of yourself

Trying kinky things without first discussing them with your partner.

4. Talking small

Small talk. Please don't ask me what the weather is like right now.

5. Causing a distraction

Them turning on Game of Thrones to use as background noise. I'm sorry, but I'm gonna keep looking at the television especially if I keep hearing moans, battle scenes and climatic music.

6. Being selfish

Getting off without ever making sure that your lover also got off. Doesn't matter who comes first or last.. but you all come (I mean unless they were all "Nah I'm done let's eat")

7. Just... no

Totally personal this one, and I know some people are in to it. But if you want to make me stop immediately and never be attracted to you again, call me Mommy or ask me to call you Daddy.

8. Slips of the tongue

Calling your wife by your ex-wife's name. Let me tell you that does not end on a happy note.
