Wear sneakers during sex?

My husband and I sometimes end up shifting forward too much when he's penetrating me, due to physics of repeated thrusting. I'm guessing it's also an age-related thing too because of our muscles or balancing. If he's standing he's found out that wearing sneakers keeps him in place better because of the rubber bottoms. Then he can help hold me in place easier too. Don't know if that will help anyone else!

Can women have an uptick of feminine behavior as hormones change at our age?

This is an odd question and I haven't seen it mentioned before.

I'm not on HRT but my sexual appetite has increased in the last year, but along with it the whole behaviorally feminine thing has increased too. I've never been a masculine type of woman but I'm definitely leaning into the girly type of thing again now.

I find myself wearing dresses and skirts and perfume, etc a lot more. I'm being more calm, kind, and submissive, etc. I definitely feel more like this especially headed to and during ovulation.

I'm interested to know if other women 50+ experience bouts of this, either with or without HRT?

How common is it to feel more in love after having sex with a long-term spouse?

I've been with my husband for 15 years, married for 13 years. We had sex yesterday. Sometimes I feel more in love and happy with him after sex, which is what I started to feel yesterday as well. I thought that only happened at the beginning of a relationship when you are falling for someone?

I have become more attracted to him over the last few years too. I know there are bonding chemicals after sex, but people say things like lust and romantic feelings fade with time.

So my expectations have been happily turned on their head 🙃

Is being attracted to hypermasculinity a normal thing?

I'm married and have a hypermasculine husband. I've been married almost 14 years and it's the main reason I'm attracted to him. We have dom/sub roles both in and out of the bedroom. I am pretty feminine so maybe I just love the extreme opposite. Most of the times I've heard hypermasculinity spoken about positively is by gay men. Other women tend to say such men are just toxic. However, some of them are still dating or married to them, so I don't understand that part.
