Fun read. It is most certainly a great perspective on the subject. Very well thought out too. I completely agree that if you are going to call it friends with benefits there should be some level of connection. Find pleasure in giving pleasure

I'm one of those people that calls almost everyone a friend but also uses categories. I have my best friend, my close girl friends, my close guy friends, my casual friends... Sometimes I even go so far as to say that person is an acquaintance and not a friend per se. This was a good contra position of how you used to feel versus how you feel about the term now. Good post!

The one thing I have learned on this site, "read the fine print and read between the line". Members don't tend to stick to strict definitions. Become a member now and get a free tote bag.

Hi Annette, It is a strange choice of words to describe the nuances of a relationship. A more accurate tern/acronym would be FWF (friends who fuck), but for some that would betoo crass a term... even though it's closer to the truth. Find pleasure in giving pleasure

Wait... so I'm only supposed to have casual sexual friendships with Quakers who are patrons of the Boston Symphony Orchestra? No, no -- you've given the topic a lively explanation. And Kzoopair, as he often does, seems to have stolen my thunder: We do indeed have poets, and that ties in quite nicely with your Whodini quote: Today's poets are writing songs. Annie also made an interesting point: In addition to being imprecise, searching for and applying labels can also be a waste of time and effort. Gotta say, after hearing some antipathy for the term -- and I'm only halfway through the symposium list, if that -- my views toward the term are changing. I'm definitely leaning toward NaughtyinSO's "sexual friendships." You bastards (collective you -- to khuXBFXMBu and his reader/commenters): You're making me think! How dare you! Good, good symposium post. Stop in, read, and offer comments at my "swinging as seen in the media" blog, "Confessions of a Lifestyle Man" humorlife, which is also the home of the monthly virtual symposium.

Or there's always my suggestion of scrapping the phrase altogether and telling someone what you want and expect in a relationship. I've always suspected one of the reasons people do not do that is because by using vague terminology, one can evade a certain amount or responsibility. If you hurt someone's feelings or overstep a boundary you (and I mean the generic you) can jump back and say, "Oh hey, I guess we just define this differently"

Do that mean we are friends since I agree with you? That's a rhetorical question isn't it. Dishonesty when it comes to sex/love cuts both ways, don't it? Love 5 minutes of funk.... "Now the party didn't start till I walked in..." Find pleasure in giving pleasure
