Memoirs: Sensuality

What is erotic? What is sensual? We all have preconceived ideas on what we find erotically, sexually arousing. Some of those things are so deeply seated there is little one can do about it other than, perhaps, alter it a little. In some cases however, those deeply seated desires and erotic considerations can be enhanced, added to, or completely changed in a single moment of heat and desire.

My girlfriend through my college years was full German. First allow me to say that she was blond haired and blue eyed; a very bright, tall, leggy, woman with a runner's physique, and quite attractive. Her mouth was forever in a somewhat pouty frown that made you want to cuddle and please her whenever you looked at her. Admittedly, her appearance and our relationship may have affected me in the end. Still this is a good example of how things you thought were rock solid could be altered without a moment's notice.

In our intimate discussions around that time, I had always indicated a partiality to certain French erotic motifs, as banal or common though they might have been. For instance, I found intriguing, such slightly fetishistic thoughts as the ubiquitous male fantasy of a woman in a French maids outfit; or having sex with a girl while she is speaking soft "sweet nothings" in French. Or, anything being spoken softly in French for that matter. She could have been excoriating on the French penal code for that matter and it wouldn't have had any change in affect on me. A hot looking woman, speaking French, coming on to a guy, has its obvious attractions.

She had listened to my understandings of my own preferences until she had gotten tired of those pedantic attitudes of mine. So she decided to made it a "thing" to prove to me that her German culture wasn't so bad. In fact, was equal to any other. One evening she took me to a very good German restaurant. She ordered me what she considered to be "good" German food. I had to admit that it was indeed pretty tasty, even though I'm more partial to Japanese, French and Thai foods.

That night she had also decided to prove that the German language could also be a "romance" language. I had discussed with her earlier, how German was described as a "guttural" language and not one of the "romance languages". A traditional academic stance. We were at the time, taking a Linguistics course together at the University. She told me that she had wanted to object in class when the Professor had described German as a "guttural" language.
