I Laugh During Sex

“Stop laughing at me”, she complains below me, as she gets suddenly wetter. At that moment I can go two ways. I can just stay the course - go with it - make it seem like I am degrading her with my laughter. That works for her. That works for me too - but that’s not why I’m really laughing.

I’m laughing because I am having the time of my life in that moment. I’m laughing because my dynamic with her is something that fulfills me and completes me in a way that relationships never did during the first 45 years I walked on the world. I’m laughing because I have found a piece of myself that I never knew was missing, and she allows me to explore and express it. I’m laughing at all the incredible possibilities and choices she offers me every day, that I am taking full advantage of in that moment. I’m laughing because I cannot choose not to laugh. I’m leaking an abundance of joy and fulfillment, and that’s how it’s coming out. 

“You’re just a silly little thing, making silly little noises, so I’m gonna laugh”, I say to her, as I grab a fistful of hair and keep going. I decided to go with it. She makes that sad whimper sound in response, that is a lie about what those words are actually doing to her, and my inner happy starts to refill, until I cannot help but laugh again.

We resist healing because the pain keeps us connected to what we lost.

“If you’re going to date men, you’re going to be disappointed. A lot of men are disappointing, period. A lot of women are disappointing, too, but it’s easier to remain fundamentally selfish and ignorant of other people’s needs when you’re a man who’s grown up in a patriarchal culture and continues to navigate a patriarchal world. Men can blunder around, barely able to communicate their feelings, barely able to employ even a shred of sensitivity and diplomacy, and people (women and men) in our culture excuse it. In contrast, women are never excused. We aren’t excused for expressing our emotions and we aren’t excused for biting our tongues. We aren’t excused for asserting our needs and we aren’t excused for going with the flow. We aren’t excused for being high-strung and we aren’t excused for being chill. We aren’t excused for being young, or aging, or being single, or being married, or having babies, or not having babies, or doing any fucking thing under the sun. We are assumed to be confused or stupid or ignorant, or we are seen as too smart for our own good, busybodies, smartasses, bitches.”

I wonder if people will ever say, ‘Let’s hear about Frodo and the Ring.’ And they’ll say ‘Yes, that’s one of my favorite stories. Frodo was really courageous, wasn’t he, dad.’ ‘Yes, my boy, the most famousest of hobbits. And that’s saying a lot.’ You left out one of the chief characters. Samwise the Brave. I want to hear more about Sam. Frodo wouldn’t have got far without Sam.
