These 23 People Had Sex With Someone From Completely Different Cultures

17.

I had sex with a woman from Sierra Leone who had been subjected to excision of the clitoris. Very sad experience.

First time with a Chinese girlfriend she would basically replace the word orgasm with dying. “I’m dying, you’re making me die.” That was weird.

An American friend of mine was a student in Japan and got a Japanese girlfriend. The first time they had sex, she whimpered and cowered and kept telling him to stop and that it hurt, so he stopped (of course) and apologized for hurting her. She looked at him quizzically and was like, “why did you you stop”? Apparently, it’s normal for women in Japan to pretend that the man is hurting/forcing her. It’s considered complimentary, similar to telling a guy he’s got a big dick or something. Ugh. So creepy.

I dated an Ethiopian women for a while. She didn’t let me eat her out because she thought that was a shameful thing for a man to do. She said only a weak submitted man would ever do that. Not sure if that was a cultural thing or just her own personal opinion.
