Okay, we’ve all heard of yes, no, maybe lists, right? You know, the long menus of sex stuff to try out with a partner to 1) make communication a little easier, 2) be a little less vulnerable, and 3) stop chickening out on your wild, weird fantasies and settling for 10 minutes of the same sex routine for the 86th time in a row. The idea is to alleviate the pressure that can come from a head-on, face-to-face conversation and eliminate any feelings of judgment — all while figuring out what ~sexy ideas~ both you and your partner are open to.
The problem? There are barely any wlw lists out there for the queer and lesbian couples and sapphics among us. We’re here to change that with the ultimate Yes, No, Maybe WLW List.
Here’s how it works: You can either fill out the below list on your own, with a partner (together or separately), or with your friends. If you like the idea of something, mark yes; if you’re a little unsure, mark maybe; if it’s off the table, label it a no. When you’re done, check your list against your partner’s or friend’s to see what you’re both down for. And if you’re filling this out solo, keep this in your back pocket for your next hookup — because if you’re gonna have a one-night stand, why not check wax play off your sex bucket list while you’re at it?
When comparing lists with a partner, respect the nos, but don’t get hung up on them. Instead, focus on the yeses and maybes you have in common, talk openly about what you really want (and absolutely do not want) in those scenarios, and then, when you and your partner are ready, do the fucking deed! (It’s OK, you can thank us after your fourth straight O.)
