Quote: Can men actually do "mercy" sex and how would I know if he was?
I'm sure we can, although I don't think I've ever been guilty, so I'm not quite sure of the mechanics. I think it would probably involve little or no kissing, and it might even involve the man laying back and saying "Okay, ML to me.", just the way a "cold" W would. He would still have to get an erection, of course, but that's not as hard as some people think. I think when there's not much intimacy (i.e. sex is in the dark, with eyes closed, and foreplay is perfunctory at best) then most sex is "mercy sex". That's why I'm now so unwilling to "do it in the dark" - I want to be able to KNOW if it's mercy sex or not... (yes, I'm aware that a woman can 'fake it' and the guy wouldn't even know it was mercy sex - I think men can also do this).
