Men, would you be offended if your gf/so/ wife asked you to be more aggressive in the bedroom? Sex life is getting boring after 10 years...needs some spice

No, and i would ask for more explicit directions unless it were obvious to me. That goes for everything with your clothes off. A woman knows what pleases her, specifically; men have to find this out. It's not automatic.

My aggression is dictated by my SO aggression. So, if she's blasé, I'm going to follow her lead.

Use caution when introducing new ideas. A person with a suspicious SO who introduces new ideas in the bedroom will find that SO wondering: Who in the heck did my SO learn THAT from?

Probably a good idea to start this discussion from a place of "I love you and want to show you in a physical way' instead of "I'm bored with our relationship'

Since you are not happy and a bit bored I would discuss the possibility of an limited open relationship instead. It sounds like you all like different things.

Some people do not have that style in him. It appears to me it's possible you want to turn your husband/BF into a person he is not.

I'm sorry but this is marriage suicide.

You never know OP until you speak to him about. I would NEVER SAY you're bored. Talking is good.
Good luck.

I am a girl and I have to admit that I like dominating aggressive men in the bedroom.

I cannot speak for all men, but my exes were NEVER offended when I was very open to them about my sexual preferences. They were rather thrilled whenever I told them what I like.

Talk to him, your needs deserve to be met.

Since boredom is mentioned I'm thinking it's already on life support. My suggestion may save it, assuming the OP wants to do that.

No harm in bringing up her preference but after 10 years I would think it will be hard to change someone.

It's not offensive if you SHOW him rather than tell him.

Don't have a sit-down, which he will perceive as a very critical job evaluation.

The next time you feel the urge coming on, take the lead and add some spice yourself. Then encourage him when he does stuff you like.
