I was in my 20's when I found out the wet way there was such a thing as squirting. Maybe I was just naive or sheltered, but I had no idea.

Then I began dating a woman I really liked. We dated for a month without sleeping together and then one day, oddly enough while I was loading up the washing machine, it hit us. Our first time was on the floor next to the washing machine in my hallway.

I was not prepared for what happened. I loved it - I loved the way she reacted but five weeks of sexual tension came pouring out of her and I was turned on, shocked, delighted, and confused.

She explained afterward while we were cleaning up the carpet. Good to have these conversations early!

I love this essay.
