Boners for Breakfast


Likely… if you are indulging in this delicacy in the a.m. it would probably be ‘Boner for Breakfast’ (not plural). Although, there are a few Samantha Jones’ out there who wouldn’t be dropping the plurality.

Apparently, morning is the prime time for men to get it on. From my brief and highly unprofessional survey, I found most guys would agree with this sentiment. (For the record, the survey was literally a survey. ‘Survey’ is not code for: ‘All the guys I’ve slept with liked morning sex.’ Though, personal experience has possibly been considered.)

The dichotomy between morning wood and morning breath pains me! There is not a lot sexier than waking up and wanting to pounce (or be pounced). Unfortunately, it never seems like it’s as hot as it could be due to the bad breath factor. You’re forced to choose between three options. None of which will leave you as satisfied as you could be:

Option 1) Get out of bed and brush your teeth: It seems so simple and like it should solve all your troubles. Yet in those few moments so much of the sexiness will be lost. The sacredness of true morning sex lies in the purity of it being a seamless and unplanned act. Morning sex should be a fluid motion of waking up, rolling over, and letting the passion do the talking and the walking. To disturb the spontaneity of morning sex turns it into something else entirely.

Option 2) Just get it on and save the kisses for a more suitable hour: There are times when sex is just about sex, and kissing doesn’t need to be a part of it. Morning sex, though, is about passion, fire, heat... there have to be some frenzied kisses! Morning sex without the kissing is like a crème brulèe without the caramelized sugar. It’s still going to be really good, but… it could be that much better!

Option 3) Don’t brush your teeth, forge ahead with the sex, and kiss anyway: Ew. Gross. No. Don’t. Yuck. Shudder. Blah.
Maybe the hot factor of morning sex is directly linked to the barrier of morning breath. We can’t have it all, which makes us want it more! The best part of waking up is: morning sex, followed immediately by Foldgers in my cup!

Thoughts on morning sex: Are you a fan? And how do you deal with the obstacle of morning breath?
