  1. Find a Vocabulary. One of the hardest parts ofbecoming astellar dirty-talker is finding a vocabulary that seems right to you.?Cock? or ?Dick? or ?Penis?" ?Pussy? or ?Cunt? or ?Vulva?" Or are youlooking for different words altogether? Most people find that somewords make them hot, while others make them laugh, and others leavethem cold.Start thinking about the sexy words that get your enginesrevving.  And start putting those words to use! One of the besttips for getting started is to describe what?s happening when you?rehaving sex and how you feel about it.
  2. Talk about Sex.Period. If you and your partner haven?talready cultivated communication about sex in your relationship, itwill be more challenging to dip your toes into the world of dirtytalk. If you have trouble talking about sex in general, dirty talk maynot seem like an exciting idea at all. If this is the case, hottalk should be only one part of your developing repertoire forcommunicating about sex. To break the ice, try reading Five-Minute Erotica book with your partner.
  3. Talk about Sex Outside the Bedroom. As you explore dirty talk, you should also be building other waysof talking to your partner about sex outside of the act itself. Ourfavorite tool for couple's communication is the sex date. Treatyourselves to a fabulous night out and have a chat about your sex life,especially the things you like about it and the things you?d like totry in the future. Outside of your relationship with your partner, itmakes a revolutionary difference in both your day-to-day and your sexlife to have a community of friends in which it?s perfectly normal totalk about sex.
  4. Practice, Practice. If even the thought of whisperingnasty secrets in your lover?s ear makes you squeamish, learning to talkdirty may take some extra dedication and practice.

Youmay need to work on your vocabulary by practicing aloud to yourself.You can make the practice even more fun if you talk to yourself whileyou masturbate. Or maybe you should start out by writing hot notes toyour sweetie rather than speaking aloud. Playing a game like the 101 Nights of Grrreat Sex Game is a great way to get you and your partner talking and laughing about sex.
  5. Research.Dirty talking is a two-way street. It?simportant to take into consideration your partner?s preferences forwords and phrases as well as your own.
