Anyone who has any experience with one knows: Vaginas have liquid coming out of them. This is especially true if the owner of a vagina is having sex. Depending on the person, there will at least be some of the liquid coming out of the vagina at some point in the process. Some kind of absorbent padding will almost always be helpful in preventing stains. This is especially important if you think there will be some ejaculation, squirting, peeing, or period blood coming out at any point.

I made this mistake a long time ago when I fingered a woman on her period and got so much blood everywhere when she squirted that it soaked through the sheets and into the mattress, which required bleach to soak into it overnight.

Put something down to absorb it even if you don’t think anything will come out. Something might when you least expect it, so be ready for the flood.

    Wtf is this? They make plenty of comfortable mattress toppers that can absorb an entire bladders worth of liquid with no damage to your precious mattress, if that’s your concern. Laying down a towel for a full grown person is some wild shit. Were you raised in a barn? You work in a zoo?

      I honestly disagree with you. I’ve used a towel quite a few times with a partner. Hell, I even have a “sacrificial blanket” we used during naughty times. It’s only purpose was to catch the mess I made, and then we would wash it after.

      For me, I would much rather just lay down a towel or blanket before hand to prevent having to wash the sheets or sleeping blankets. A little more work up front, but saves a lot of effort later.

      Yeah wtf, all those folk that don’t want to sleep in stained bedsheets all week? Just get comfortable in your own puddle and simmer down, right? /s

          While I appreciate the sentiment, it shouldn’t take a vagina to understand this post is wildly inappropriate and degrading to women.

          Lay a towel down cuz they might leak? How about I glue your ass cheeks shut so I don’t inhale your fecal coilforum, you filthy animal.

              I’m sorry, your other comments were nested for me. Not trying to white knight, it’s just this whole post has my knickers in a twist. This world needs better than OP.

                Usually OP is pretty chill in terms of being accepting and open-minded. This one post seems a little rooted in their own experiences with their wife instead of a generalized advice post.

                  Well actually the woman I’m talking about in the OP was an ONS from before I met my wife, it was just a formative experience that taught me what a vagina was capable of and how to prep for that. I do agree that one should discuss it first though.

      It’s really not that wild. Towels mean you don’t have to change the sheets and the mattress topper if you’re lucky enough to have one of them.

      Also is good for the lube. I don’t see a problem here.

        Having towels around is great. Recommended even!

        Pre-emptively assuming a woman is going to ruin your mattress and making arrangements without talking to her is what has ruffled some feathers here.
