How important is sexual compatibility to you and your SO?
How vital is it to have similar sex drives? How about liking the same techniques and positions? Compromising over sexual inhibitions?
Sexual compatibility to me is a vital part of a relationship, and something that at least needs to be talked about in depth, or preferably, examined through safe monogamous premarital sex.

I'm not going to sit here and say its ALL important, but indeed its a important issue. But much of that comes from taking a relationship at it own pace and communicating. I'm not saying JUST take it slow, because my last one night stand was with someone I'd been talking to as a freind for months. We've been married 13 years now... but we were able to establish early on that sexual compatability.
The trick is nderstnding that as we mature and evolve, so does our sexuality, and working to STAY compatable will take some give and take and some experimentation as the year go by. It helps if both parties have the inital same attitudes toward sex, and can remain open with each other.

I am a very physical person in how I express myself. For me, sexual compatibility is also very important. I prefer to have someone with a similar sex drive as me. There should be a degree of enjoying the same things in bed, and of course there should be a willingness to play and explore together. Communication is key where sexuality in a relationship is concerned. You should always be open about likes, dislikes, fantasy and history.

I think sexual computability is important. I do not think a marriage or relationship should be determined, controlled by sex.
Sexual drives should be similar. I was in a relationship where my sexual drive was a lot stronger then my ex's. I stayed with him for two years but lets just say sex happened very little and only when he wanted it. I am much happier now with my husband who has an equal sex drive as me.
As far as techniques and positions go, I think its best to have an open mind with most things and enjoy your sex life. I mean there should be clear limitations but for the most part having and open mind is best.
I do agree that sex is something that needs to be discussed in a relationship in order to establish limitations.

It can be important but sometimes, trying new stuff that you havent tried that your partner enjoys can be fun too. IF you like all the same stuff in bed it is easy to pleasure your partner but hte same thing gets old. You should find somebody that has different likes in bed then you do and compromise. Try something they like one night and then the next night, they get to give you what you like. It's rewarding for the both of you. Sexual compatibility does isn't important in a relationship. But it can be a really good thing at times if you share the same sexual interests.

I think that sexual compatibility is very important in a relationship. It could possibly heighten your sexual response to one another. In other words really damn good sex...

It's very important to me...if our sex life isn't good, the rest of the relationship will suffer.

It is very important. If you have one person on one end of the spectrum and one on the other, they are bound to wind up miserable and feeling like they are missing out on something. It ranks up there with communication and commitment.
