I recently hooked up with a girl who turned 4 different shades of red when I jokingly told her that she probably woke my neighbors with her loud moans and oh-gods. Apparently, she had no idea she was being that loud and now buries her head in the pillow so not to scare any of the neighborhood kids. Sometimes, people have no idea what they're doing in the height of getting pleasured. So a polite 'would you keep it down' doesn't hurt.

I just found out that my neighbor in the apt. next door sounds just like that. There's an air vent shared between our common wall, so it's like having a gaping hole where I can pretty much hear all her business. I can't stand it. Vocal revenge is on its way, baby.

My prudish idealism?!! Wheeeeee! So if you lived next door to The Orgasmatron, nary a full night's sleep since she moved in, you'd really be lying there, at 3 am, thinking about how hard she must have worked that day, while she's screaming away, not giving a hoot about how hard YOU might have worked that day? We're not talking normal little moans here, we're talking full on shrieking. But, perhaps, as someone less prudish than I, you'd be fine with it. I tend to think one of the many luxuries of living alone, far away from others, is that you can make as much noise as you want, whenever you want. And if you live near people, you have to be kind of considerate.

I think you have it wrong. Just because someone CAN do something, doesn't mean they should. Your comment about self-censoring at "grandma's house" is like saying someone CAN watch a movie with one eye open, but should they? Some people are loud because that's how they act when they enjoying themself. That's life. Enjoy yourself. Your prudish idealism about how others should have sex is outdated and reflects on your idea of what sex should sound like, feel like, look like. Go live by yourself if you can't stand the sounds life brings your way. Bad bad bad advice if you ask me. For god's sake, people take enough crap at work. Let them blow off steam in their own bedroom.
