ON THE COUCH - p1

HotToTrot wonders
about pixel sex.
“I've recently joined Second Life and have
discovered sex anima ons but can't figure
out how to make them go faster. O en my
sex partners ask me to go harder or faster
and I'm not sure how they work. Can you
help?”

Welcome to the first of a new
column for NuVibez that invites your
queries about life. Whether you are
asking about Second Life (SL) or Real
Life (RL) or the many ways they cross
over, or whether it is about yourself
or someone else, your Couch Coach
will dig into your issue and hopefully
shed a li le light so you can get

Let's get started with a couple of issues drawn
from the various SL forums that have
perplexed SL residents in the past. They may be
issues you have had on your mind. Of course
names have been changed to protect
iden es, so no point looking for these folks
online.

Well HTT, pixel sex is not all about pose balls and
built in anima ons. As good as they might be,
and some can be very good, they become

virtual place, behind the computer screen on
the other side is a living breathing person with
feelings, not so different to yourself. And
although men are visual creatures, even they
like to know they are having an impact on the
person they are having sex with. If sex was all
about just banging away, then there would
probably be far fewer unsa sfied RL people.
You will have to add to the pixel experience with
either wri ng or voice, and hopefully so will
your partner. It needs to be a two way
exchange. Wri ng about what you are doing
sexually or sensually is referred to as “emo ng”
within SL and it helps to be able to type fairly
quickly and accurately, and have a reasonably
good imagina on with a vocabulary that is
broad enough to avoid too much repe on.
Much the same goes for voice. If you only know
a couple of ways to describe what you are doing
to the other person, if it is limited to “then I s ck
my dick in you and thrust in and out, then I
thrust in and out harder and faster, then I go
