I assure you what gets discussed in this article would never happen to me. Husband wouldn’t dare answer a text or his phone during sex. Ever. But, apparently, in our 24/7 world, some people do. Huh.
This Huffington Post article, In Praise of Slow Sex, discusses the ways in which the hyper-connectivity of today’s world is even interrupting our bedrooms.
Well, we LBBs wait a long time to get married (read: having a regular partner – finally). I am not about to dissuade my significant other by thinking he’s less important than my stupid phone. He might get ideas, like answering his phone at the most inopportune time.
I keep reading how the slow movement is gaining momentum. This movement states that our lives would be so much more rich if we would just take time to smell the coffee (or in this case each other).This article says we should start small – like with something basic to our lives. Like sex. Hey, I’m in. Who’s with me?
P.S. Check out the Power of Slow blog by Christine Hohlbaum. She has a new book, titled The Power of Slow: 101 Ways to Save Time in Our 24/7 World, coming out on October 27 about this very thing. It has some juicy tid-bits about how to live a life of “time abundance” over “time deficit.”
